About Mountain Plaza

For generations, guests have enjoyed staying at Mountain Plaza for its spacious and comfortable accommodations conveniently located at the base of the American Eagle Lift in the Center Village.

On-site indoor and outdoor hot tubs, sauna, dining, daycare and a lobby warmed by its gas fireplace make Mountain Plaza a good choice for family and friends to enjoy a relaxed mountain environment. Just steps away to the South is access to the mountain for skiing, riding, hiking and biking; and to the North is the dock on West Lake featuring ice skating, ice hockey and boating. The building, built in 1979, also features complimentary wi-fi, heated underground parking and laundry facilities.

This is the place for you if you want to be in the buzz. Accommodations for any size group or budget are available, all within a short walk to the lifts.
