The Allmusic review by John Bush awarded the album four stars and said that "Despite the peaceful atmosphere and strolling tempo, Vaughan hardly treats the material as a cinch for her voice; all of these eleven songs find her searching for different ways to present timeworn standards...Snowbound is an overlooked gem from Sarah Vaughan's Roulette years".
