Check the season before choosing Heavenly parking

Open tip ↗

The operator parking guide now says reservations are not needed for 2026/27, but its California fees, carpool rules and shuttle sections still include older-season text. Confirm the policy for your exact base and dates; no reservation does not mean every lot is free or available. Stagecoach and Boulder are listed as free options, while Village parking is separately paid. Check the entry lift and lesson meeting base before choosing a lot, and obtain current California charges directly from the operator rather than using its old FAQ.
