Tourism is booming in Revelstoke, and Revelstoke Mountain Resort continues to expand their offerings to our visitors. Some of the biggest new developments include the ongoing construction of a new hotel across from the Sutton Place hotel, the continued creation of the Cabot Pacific golf course, a new pipe mountain coaster and the pending construction of employee housing.
Head to the Rockford patio for some drinks after shredding the lift access mountain bike trails at the resort and you’ll be able to see the construction on the new hotel being built across the road. This hotel will have 154 rooms and be equipped with conference spaces, a new restaurant and bar and a fitness centre/spa. Once completed, Selkirk Tangiers Heli Skiing will move from The Coast Hillcrest Hotel and make this their new base of operations.
The legendary golf course developer Cabot continues to develop the land on the West side of Camozzi Road, above Williamson Lake. The creation of this golf course is highly anticipated by golfers from around the world and Cabot has set their standard high with the creation of their golf course in Cape Breton. Boasting mountain vistas from every hole on the course, and Par of 71, this golf course will be a great representation of everything people love about mountain golf. The resort is planning on this course being ready for play in 2024.
Present-day visitors to the resort are able to now take their pick of two different pipe coaster routes. Building on the continued success of the original pipe coaster, which opened in 2016, a second track has been installed. Having two coasters allows riders to experience more variety and greatly reduces wait times.
Last but not least, where do all those lifties and construction personnel live? Revelstoke has the perennial problem of where to house all of our workers, and Revelstoke Mountain Resort is looking to make moves to help solve this issue. In April 2022, development permits were issued for the proposed three-building employee housing complex at the resort. Currently stalled by pending building permits, the first phase of this project is scheduled to take between 18 and 24 months to complete once construction has begun.
