Holiday Mountain Ski and Fun Park in Monticello NY was built by the town of Thompson; it opened in December of 1957. In summer, it features wide range of activities including go-karts, bumper boats, bumper cars, rock wall, mini golf, fun slide and batting cages.
Winter sports include downhill skiing, snowboarding, terrain park and snow tubing. The beginner area and Snow Sports School, as well as special deals like the “Kinderski Program” for ages 4-6 and “family night,” make learning pleasurable for all ages. There are currently six trails for skiers and snowboarders, as well as four tubing runs. Ski chalet and café on site.
The mountain — at 155 acres — is bigger than it looks, and has surprising pitch.
The most exciting news in years for Holiday Mountain, is the change in ownership. Mike Taylor, a Monticello resident, is a lifelong skier who bought Holiday in May of 2023. Mike’s Bridgeville Ski Company is renovating Holiday top-to-bottom. Over the summer, Holiday reclaimed overgrown trails, widen existing runs, added thousand of feet of snowmaking pipe, quadrupled pumping capacity.
