Reservations update and room size

A big thank you to everybody who's shown interest in staying with us at Granite Park and Sperry Chalet! If you have not secured a reservation please keep an eye on the "Availability" calendar of each website. If an opening is posted that you're interested in, fill out a new reservation request form. Be sure and list any "alternate dates" that work for you, whether you're open to a shorter stay, and whether you're open to a smaller or larger room (if your preferred is no longer available). The more you tell us, the better we can do to match our availability with the needs and preferences of your party. Speaking of room sizes...

We've gotten a lot of questions regarding room size and party size.
Question: If I received a 4 person room for my party of 2 people, can I bring extra people?

Answer: The ability to increase your party size after booking depends on the number of visitors at each Chalet for that day. We have a strict occupancy limit for overnight guests and you can only increase your party size after booking your stay if a chalet has availability. Increasing your party size is not guaranteed.

If you seek to increase your party size, you MUST call or email our office following your reservation booking to see if the chalet has reached its max occupancy rate on the days of your reservation. If there's room, we can increase your party size. If the occupancy limit has been reached, your original reservation cannot be increased.

This is a practical reality. Both chalets have to plan ahead for linens, food, propane, and other supplies, which must be packed up by mule trains each week. We strongly suggest you make any party size requests as early as possible, but no later than 14 days before your reservation, to help us prepare for the accurate number of guests each night.

Along those lines, friendly reminder that you must adhere to the number of people in your party as listed in your confirmation email (even if your room size is larger). Additional people not approved in your reservation party size will be turned away.

Still have questions? Check out the FAQs page of our website or shoot us an email or call.

best,
