With a side business in the maple syrup mafia, one lucky buyer could turn the otherwise defunct, Maple Valley Ski Area into the next Killington.
On a more realistic note, Maple Valley Ski Area is easily one of the most viable ski area prospects currently up for sale. With the right management in place, the ski hill could once again thrive thanks to its southeastern orientation, just a 2.5 hour drive from Boston.
“The mountain has night lighting which no other ski resort in the area has. The slope behind the lodge, serviced by the T-Bar Lift, has been analyzed as perfect for one or two half pipes.” – Maple Valley Ski Area
According to Transworld Snowboarding, the current asking price of $950,000 includes the 1,000′ tall ski area itself, a massive 3-story base lodge, and all the lifts and on-hill facilities. The last time the ski area held winter operations was in the 1999/2000 season.
