In the 1960s a local woodsman and an avid skier from New York pictured Vermont's Stratton Mountain as the perfect place for families to enjoy the bounty of nature framed by a magnificent mountain setting. Tink Smith and Frank Snyder were right - families started packing lunches and driving in for day skiing.
The story of Stratton Mountain can be told in a few key and evocative words… |
Appeal
Wowed by Stratton’s Mountain's beauty and bountiful snowfall, some visitors build ski houses around the area. Local motels begin hosting families for weekend skiing, and a base lodge is constructed. By the 1980s, shops and condominiums appear on the mountain and the Village starts to take shape. |
|
Renaissance
In 1994, Stratton Mountain joined the Intrawest family. The envisioning process translates into a comprehensive Master Plan for turning Stratton Mountain into a true village-centered resort and a remarkable transformation begins. |
|
The Village
The Village comes alive with new shops and restaurants, and more people than ever want to spend even more time at Stratton Mountain with family and friends. |
|
Responsiveness
Responding to customer demand, Intrawest creates SnowBridge, its first residential neighborhood at Stratton Mountain Resort. Long Trail House, Stratton Springs and Solstice follow. Frequent visitors, who recognize that time together at a wonderful place is the best investment families can make, eagerly become homeowners. |
|
Service
The Ursa Project upgrades lifts, enhances trail maintenance and redefines customer service, taking the Stratton experience to the next level. The result? Everything people always loved about Stratton Mountain Resort becomes even better. |
|
Vitality
Prospective homeowners act decisively to join the Stratton community; TreeTop and Rising Bear Lodge sell out in record time. The village buzzes with folks meeting to share a meal with friends, stopping in for a coffee and a paper, checking out new gear and equipment, or just enjoying some fantastic people-watching. |
|
Magic
Stratton has become a mountain home away from home for the discerning owners who have become part of a thriving, world-class resort community that hums with excitement. This is where magical memories are being made right now: memories that will become part of family history for generations to come. |
|
Tradition
The rich history of New England hospitality has been part of Stratton’s story since its beginning. Today, that tradition has not only endured but also become even more precious as each new generation makes wonderful memories at Stratton. New friends turn into old friends, families create holiday rituals, and the entire Stratton Mountain community celebrates momentous events and everyday moments with a deep appreciation of the joys of mountain living. |
