Winter Wanderland
Have a jolly time taking in our technicolor holiday paradise with delightful yuletide fun, tasty holiday cocktails, and more rainbow-colored Christmas trees than you can shake a stick at. Visit us at Rocky’s Bar, wander amongst the trees, grab a festive drink (we recommend the shotskis), and take a seat in front of the fire at our delightful ski chalets. Experience Austin Motel’s Winter Wanderland, December 5 to January 1, with extra festive activities happening daily, Thursday through Sunday. Entry is free.
