What it costs
Gore always has free parking. Lots A and B by the entrance have both free spaces and paid Premier Parking, the closest spots to the base. Premier Parking charges Thursday to Sunday from 7:15am to 4pm starting in December 2026, and every day during the Christmas and Presidents weeks. You buy a single day at the lot entrance, but Gore doesn’t post the price online.
How to park free
- Free spaces are in Lots A and B next to the entrance, then Lots D to H further out, with a shuttle from those lots on weekends and holidays.
Book or pay
If the lots are full
When Lots A and B fill, park in Lots D, E, F, G or H and catch the weekend and holiday shuttle from the marked stops. Don’t park along the access road, since shuttles won’t stop there and you can be fined up to $500 for parking in the wrong place.
Good to know
- Premier Parking is first come, first served, even with a season Premier pass, and the pass is validated only once a day, so you can’t leave and come back.
- Premier Parking passes for 2026–27 go on sale to last season’s Premier passholders first. Call Gore at (518) 251-2411 for details.
- New York’s governor’s office says Gore added a 375-space parking lot for the 2025–26 season.
