Not really. Compared to Manali or Kasol it feels very calm. Even during peak season Shoja village stays quiet. That is why many travelers choose Shoja Tirthan Valley area now.
Yes, Shoja does get snowfall in winter months. Around December or January the village and forests turn white. It is not like Manali snowfall crowds though. The place still feels peaceful.
Most stays here are small homestays instead of big hotels. I stayed in a wooden house with valley views. Simple food, warm tea and friendly hosts. That actually made my Shoja Himachal trip better.
