Resorts Holiday-Mountain

Area Profile

"Where Great Skiers Begin," Holiday Mountain offers convenience and a scenic drive into the mountains, just 90 minutes from New York City. Holiday promises a friendly, relaxed atmosphere that families enjoy. The beginner area and spectacular Snow Sports School, as well as special deals like the "Kinderski Program" for ages 4-6 and "family night" on Thursdays and Saturdays, make learning a pleasurable experience for all ages.

This winter Holiday Mountain will introduce a brand new ski chalet at the bottom of the slopes. Plans for a new hotel and water park have been delayed due to a flood at the resort in April 2005, but plans are underway to break ground on those projects within the next two years.
