Holiday Valley
Resort is on a quest for conitnous improvement and has demolished the old
Clubhouse Chalet where your ski trips have started since 1962. Desite the six
expansions over the years, it was time for the resort to build a new lodge with
more efficient year round facilities for skiers, golfers, vacationers,
conferences, events and more. The result is $12 million , 66,000 square foot
building that screams the great outdoors. The new building is what you expect to
see at a world class resort, with 32 foot high cathedral ceilings, tongue and
groove cedar decking, massive wooden beams, 2 story stone chimney with
fireplaces on both floors and a great lodge feel on the extrior with natural
stone and cedar.
