Condos and Homes

The village of Solitude has erected condos and homes for the convenience of transient guests. Many are located toward the side of a ski slope. They contain one to five bedrooms. Some can accommodate larger parties of skiers. For example, one luxury home has four bedrooms and can accommodate a party of 18 guests. It also has a guest room, a gourmet kitchen, dining room and a bar with a pool table, as well as four luxurious bathrooms and a two-car garage.

Brighton Lodge

If your focus is the Brighton Ski Resort and your interest in Solitude is only secondary, lodging is available at Brighton. The resort contains the Brighton Lodge, which offers "comfortable rustic hotel style accommodation including a continental breakfast," according to the Brighton Ski Resort website. From here, it is a healthy walk to Solitude by way of a trail, aptly called the SolBright Trail, combining the names of the two villages. You may negotiate this trail by snowshoes in winter.
