Frequently Asked Questions

Question 1

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Ut elit tellus, luctus nec ullamcorper mattis, pulvinar dapibus leo.

Winter is a truly beautiful season to visit; however, sometimes Holden Village must cancel transport to and from the boat dock because of dangerous winter travel conditions along the road. Safety is our top priority and this decision is made based on avalanche conditions and forecasts.

Incoming Guests: If transport is cancelled, you will be notified by an email from Registration as soon as the decision is made, typically early the morning of your arrival. The boat companies will also be notified if Holden Transport is cancelled. You will not be charged for the nights you are not in the Village. In addition, if you need to cancel your stay entirely, you will be refunded your deposit and any pre-paid amounts less the $25/person administrative fee. Additionally, you have the option of contacting the Registrar to reschedule your stay without incurring any charges. 

Outgoing Guests:  For any additional nights that you have to stay at Holden Village due to transport not running you will be charged the daily meal cost ($40/day/guest). If guests are able to pay the normal nightly guest rate or a portion greater than meal costs, please let the registrar know. Once transport is available guests need to depart unless they are staying on at the normal nightly rate.

If you have time-sensitive travel plans or an event that you need to return to after a winter visit to Holden Village, we recommend that you plan your departure from the Village to be a few days earlier (with a few buffer days), just in case transport is cancelled due to weather.
