When is the best time to go to Summit?

The best time to visit Summit truly depends on what sort of experience you're after, as it offers distinct attractions across its seasons. For those keen on winter sports, the prime time is typically from December through to early April. During these months, the area is blanketed in snow, providing excellent conditions for skiing, snowboarding, and other snow-based activities. The resorts are fully operational, and the landscape is particularly picturesque. If you're more interested in hiking, mountain biking, or enjoying the natural beauty without the snow, then late spring to early autumn—roughly May to October—is ideal. The weather is generally warm and sunny, superb for exploring the trails and lakes. Wildflowers are abundant in early summer, and the autumn colours in September and October are quite striking.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel’s cancellation deadline − this is often within 24 to 48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our ‘Fully refundable property’ filter during your search to find the right Summit hotel for you.

Renaissance Palm Springs Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed one night. It was fantastic. The pool in the summer is very warm"

The Westin Mission Hills Resort Villas, Palm Springs

8/10 Good

"Overall loved the property. The room was exactly as advertised. My only callout is add another bar to the property. Ordered from the bar while at the pool that took quite some time to get. I also tried to order from the bar the next day by coming inside and my wife and I stood there for at least 15 minutes with no greeting or anybody looking our way. We ended leaving the property to get a drink somewhere else"

Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis

8/10 Good

"Stayed in a one bedroom villa room 563. Went for my anniversary and had a great time! The parking was easy as well as accessing the room. The building is a little outdated and tend to creek a lot. The rooms however, were modern and nice!!! Full kitchen was a plus and the big space made it fun for game nights. Not sure if our room was haunted however since the light and fan in the bedroom would turn on all on its own. My partner as well heard noise’s throughout our stay such as someone clapping in front of her when we were asleep. Our guests also heard tapping and sounds throughout the room at random times. These noises would happen throughout our stay but not bad to the point we were spooked. We are a middle class 20s couple for reference but I would recommend this place for everyone trying to be at home but away from home."
