Holiday Valley Prepares for Busy Summer with 9 Million Dollars in Renervations


ELLICOTTVILLE – Holiday Valley is preparing for a busy summer of upgrades, highlighted by the installation of a new, state-of-the-art High Speed 6 Pack Chairlift that will replace the Mardi Gras High Speed Quad, thus allowing for two extra people to load each chair during peak operating times. Holiday Valley will purchase the lift from Doppelmayr USA out of Salt Lake City, UT, with whom the resort has a long standing relationship with.

Additional investments include: a three-year renovation project on The Inn at Holiday Valley, the purchase of a new PistenBully 600 snow groomer, continued investments into the snowmaking system, and renovations to John Harvard’s at the Tamarack Club. In total, Holiday Valley plans to invest upwards of $9 million back into the resort as it prepares for the 2023-24 winter season.

“It’s wonderful and exciting to continue to grow Holiday Valley and offer more to our guests,” said Holiday Valley President and General Manager, Dennis Eshbaugh. “Our mission is to create fun for every visitor and our mantra is quality first.”

The Holiday Valley Mountain Operations team will do the majority of the 6 Pack build, as they have done with all of the chairlift projects at the resort.

Approximately 35 rooms per year will be renovated at The Inn for the next three years until all 102 rooms are complete. A small convenience store will also be built into the lobby area, which will allow guests easier access to snacks and drinks. The Inn at Holiday Valley first opened in the 1994-95 winter season.

A new PistenBully 600 snow groomer will be added to the Holiday Valley grooming fleet. This groomer is not only perfect for maintaining the slopes of the resort in terms of its efficiency and operation but it is also lighter than any groomer in its class and more environmentally friendly.

This past winter has showcased just how important a strong snowmaking system is to the success of Holiday Valley. More automation will be added to the system, allowing the Snowmaking Team to maximize its efficiency. Additionally, aging water and air pipelines will be extracted from the ground and replaced with new lines in order to create an even more effective snowmaking infrastructure throughout the resort.

This fall, John Harvard’s, the restaurant at the Tamarack Club, will be undergoing a redesign that will open the space up more and see a new design to the bar area, thus providing guests with fantastic views of the slopes while they dine.
