Windham Mountain
60-year-old ski resort builds on rich legacy by adding new investment to existing ownership group

Windham Mountain announced major plans to further develop the ski resort, adding to its six-decade legacy as the premier Catskills leisure destination. Windham Mountain will invest further to continue making the destination a truly unique property, building upon an ambitious multiple-year investment focused on upgrading Windham's existing ski experience.

Windham Mountain ownership has secured new investment from two hospitality and resort development families whose combined industry experience is over a hundred years: the Beall family and Kemmons Wilson family through its investment arm Kemmons Wilson Hospitality Partners (KWHP). This investment will provide growth capital and additional resources to the current management team, allowing Windham Mountain to continue to evolve, creating a premium year-round family resort experience.

The improvements will focus on: best-in-class skiing with minimal lift lines; great food and beverage programs with the redevelopment of all current outlets and the addition of a mid-mountain, Italian Alps-style concept debuting fall 2023; creation of additional townhomes and lots for land development; enhanced membership offerings for the existing Members Club; expanding and reinvigorating the existing Golf Course; and thoughtful amenities, including swimming, racket sports, family activities and expansive outdoor all-season adventure activities.

Over the past 15 years, Windham's Board and investor group- including North Castle Partners, Cloverhill Group and the McGuffog and Starker families- have partnered with management to drive substantial investments in the mountain experience, in particular in upgrades to snowmaking and chairlifts. Those investors will remain partners in the ownership group.

Serving as a foundational cornerstone in its community, Windham Mountain will continue its longstanding tradition of providing free mountain access to students of the Windham-Ashland-Jewett Central School, as well as continue important partnerships with the Adaptive Sports Foundation, the Windham Foundation, SHRED Foundation, and others. The enhancements to Windham will also introduce hundreds of local jobs as the mountain upgrades its offerings and evolves into a four-season resort destination with additional amenities, programming and activities scheduled throughout the year as well as the introduction of new restaurants and culinary offerings that will further the Catskills experience for guests, highlighting the bounty of New York State.
