When it comes to operating safely, we're all in.
We have learned a lot over the past year, and we're thankful and proud of our efforts to help keep the resort a safe and fun place to visit. And while things are closer to normal than they were a year ago, there are still some guidelines to be aware of before your visit. We will continue to follow the guidance of the CDC and local health officials, and outlined below you will find details on our plans for different areas of resort operation. We encourage you to thoroughly review all of this information prior to visiting us, and look forward to seeing you here this fall and winter.

Be Flexible
We will continue to adjust our operating plans to follow the latest rules and guidance from the CDC and the State of Maine. Just as we will be flexible with our plans, we encourage you to be flexible with yours. A successful season will require us all to work together.
