Check local weather through NOAA. There is never a guarantee of snowfall as Idyllwild is at 5000 ft. as of January 1, 2020 the last snowfall is beginning to melt in the park. the park does charge extra for Snowplay days. $10.00 per adult and $5.00 per child. pets allowed at $2.00 but must remain on leash and you must pick up pet waste If there is snow, check CalTrans for info on roads and chain requirements.
Typically as soon as the roads are plowed, 12-24 hours after a snow event in December- March. There will be a parking fee to be close to best areas.
