The SnowMansion Taos Adventure Lodge and Hostel is steeped in the history and traditions of Taos, Taos Ski Valley and Northern New Mexico since as long as anyone can remember. The Village of Arroyo Seco was founded by artists, farmers, ranchers, gamblers, outlaws and adventurers in 1800. The Chase Mercantile Company General Store, which preceded the SnowMansion, was built in 1930 and supplied, clothed and fed said artists, farmers, ranchers, gamblers, outlaws and adventurers until 1960.
In 1960 it became an episcopal church ski lodge for faithful and adventuresome ski groups headed to the fledgling Taos Ski Valley, where their faith was surely tested on the bumpy dirt road and surely rewarded on steep terrain that dominated the the Taos Ski Valley experience in the early days. Today the Taos Ski Valley resort presents a world class resort as well as world class skiing and big mountain terrain for all levels and last but not least, no lift lines.
In 1973 the SnowMansion Adventure Lodge and Hostel was born and has welcomed Taos visitors of all kinds - individuals, couples, families and groups - all year around ever since.
