Mt. Rose will open the New
Winters Creek Lodge for the 2009/10 season. BSA Architects of
San Francisco have designed a modern facility with a contemporary style that
will be the first of its kind in Lake Tahoe. Located on the southeastern-most
edge of the Slide Bowl, the new building is based on a style popular in Europe,
which brings the valley architecture into the mountains. The
glass façade
of the lodge will bring the mountain into the area, creating a warm and
special feel for what has become coined the “locals” side of
Mt. Rose.
The new Winters Creek Lodge is 7865 sq. feet and constructed mainly
of glass and steel. Replacing the former lodge, the positioning of the
new lodge will lend itself to a more conducive guest area, providing improved
traffic flow from the slopes to the lodge as well as to the Blazing Zephyr
loading zone.
A modern kitchen inside the Winters Creek Lodge will bring signature
food service by new Mt. Rose Food & Beverage Manager Thomas Monarrez
including Panini sandwiches, homemade pasta dishes,
custom burgers, multi-grain pizzas and tasty wraps.
The cozy Sky Bar provides a relaxing feel with an
incredible panoramic view of Washoe Valley and Washoe
Lake 4,000 ft. below. The new Winters Creek Lodge
will accommodate around 150 patrons inside and 400
people on the deck. Complementing the beautiful indoor
experience will be a 7,623 sq. ft. outdoor deck providing
expansive seating with an inviting atmosphere. The
new Winters Creek Lodge is the perfect place to take
a ski break in the winter or hold an event,
party or weddings any time during the
year.
Panattoni Construction is selected as the Winters Creek Lodge contractor.
Incorporated in the design are smart technologies making use of passive
solar mechanisms to maximize the efficiency of the building.
