Massive Price Tag to Join This New York Ski Club

Becoming a member at one Catskill ski resort comes with a price tag you might not believe!

Last year we shared that one of New York's most popular ski destinations had begun to undergo big changes. For many years Windham Mountain nestled in the Catskill Mountains in Windham, New York has been home to some of the best skiing in New York. When it was announced in April 2023 that an ownership group led by the founder of Ruby Tuesday Sandy Beall was taking over many expected major changes.

Changes at Windham Mountain

Changes at Windham Mountain have begun as the resort has and will continue to add high-speed ski lifts, and upgrades to its snow-making operations and now it appears the new ownership group has begun to make the once public resort a semiprivate club after investing over $70 million according to reports. Windham is planning to become a four-season resort offering new dining options, and new activities including horseback riding, fly-fishing, and golf on its revamped members-only golf course according to Thrillist.
