The resort’s page doesn’t say which season these rules are for. They were current on the page when we checked.
What does parking cost on your day?
What it costs
Preferred parking in the Motherlode Lot costs $40 per vehicle on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, first come, first served. The resort’s lot status board lists the Main, Motherlode and 5 lots as paid and the overflow lots and roadside parking as free, but doesn’t give the other prices.
How to park free
- Park in the upper or lower overflow lots or along the roads, which the lot status board lists as free.
Book or pay
Good to know
- Season parking permits for 2026–27 are sold out. Permit holders are guaranteed a space in the Main and Motherlode lots until 11am.
