There are few things better than a ski trip with the guys. Or the girls. Or just your favorite shred crew. When you are planning your trip, the price is a major consideration. Fortunately, HomeToGo has done up-to-date research on the cost of ski destinations.
They researched 50 of the most searched ski destinations across 15 states and ranked them from most affordable to least. The price considerations were peak lift ticket prices combined with the average price per person to stay in a 6-person vacation rental. Note that the price would be the per-day price and doesn’t assume any discounted lift tickets. It also doesn’t consider the cost to travel to the destination. You can view the entire list here.
