SAN MARCOS, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Northstar
Lodge in Lake Tahoe, owned and operated by Welk Resorts, will be
opening its second of three buildings, the Fremont, in October 2015. The
building features 28 luxury vacation villa units and a
14,500-square-foot preview center, complete with a Kids’ Club and a
deluxe theater for timeshare tour presentations, allowing Welk Resorts
to continue to excel. Preview tours will begin as early as October 23,
2015 and rooms will be available for reservation by October 31.
“Welk Resorts continues to grow by leveraging the assets we have at our
California properties to create new demand in seasonal drive-to and
fly-to markets,” said President and Chief Executive Officer Jon
Fredricks. “The resounding success of our investments to enhance the
brand over the past several years has allowed us to expand our presence
in this important growth market.”
Fremont floor plans range from 2,000-square-foot two- and three-bedroom
villas to 500-square-foot studios, and ADA-accessible configurations,
for both timeshare ownership and guest rentals. Each villa of the new
Fremont building—named after the first European-American settler to
“discover” Tahoe—comes with a master bedroom with a king-size bed and
fireplace, spacious living room with fireplace, 50” TV and Bose®
sound system and a fully stocked kitchen with state-of-the-art GE®
appliances. Villa guests will enjoy their own private balcony with an
outdoor fireplace as well. Each villa also comes equipped with a
full-size GE® washer and dryer. Larger units come with
additional sleeper sofas, and guest bedroom(s) with king- and queen-size
bed options as well as another fireplace.
Northstar Lodge by Welk Resorts is located at the base of Mount Juno in
Truckee, California. Situated just steps away from The Village at
Northstar, the property boasts a ski-in/gondola-out private club with
its own gondola. Resort amenities include an owner’s lounge, media
theater, ski and boot valet (winter) and bike valet (summer), a large
outdoor spa and fireplace area, and access to the adjacent Village Swim
and Fitness Center. Just across the street in the Village, find
specialty boutiques, bars, restaurants, cafés, open-air ice rink (roller
skating in summer), cabanas, outdoor fire pits and a bungee trampoline.
Northstar Lodge by Welk Resorts to Continue Expansion through 2016
Currently under construction is Northstar Lodge’s Snowshoe
building—named after the legendary “Snowshoe” Thompson, the region’s
most celebrated mail carrier who traveled through blizzards to deliver
mail and much-needed supplies. This third and final building is already
underway and is expected to be a 12- to 14-month project. This expansion
is part of Welk Resorts’ long-range plan to accommodate the growing
number of outdoor enthusiasts retreating to the Lake Tahoe region for an
exhilarating five-star vacation experience.
Northstar California is one of the premiere ski resorts in North
America, with 3,170 skiable acres, 97 trails, 7 terrain parks, 20 lifts,
2,280 feet of vertical drop and a newly constructed 22-foot half pipe
designed by Winter Olympics gold medalist Shaun White. During the
summer, the mountain serves up over 100 miles of trails in what is the
most extensive lift-served mountain bike terrain in the Western U.S.
Welk Resorts Gains Momentum in Diverse American Markets
Welk Resorts expects to grow with two new properties planned in key
markets across the United States over the next five years as well as
expanding current portfolio holdings in high-demand locations. Planned
expansion includes Welk Resorts Breckenridge and Welk Resorts Kauai.
In Colorado, construction is expected to begin on Welk Resorts
Breckenridge in 2016, with the property debut 12 to 14 months after. Set
on 6.5 acres of wilderness on Colorado’s Blue River, the property will
include 123 villas in addition to custom amenities including an owner’s
lounge, state-of-the-art fitness center, game room, indoor and outdoor
pool, spa, fire pits and barbecue areas designed to seamlessly blend
with the area’s alpine ski atmosphere.
In Hawaii, construction on Welk Resorts Kauai is expected to commence
once the Breckenridge property is opened. Hawaii is one of the most
sought-after timeshare destinations in the country, according to the
American Resort Development Association, and this development will
feature six plantation-style buildings with a total of 164 villas across
more than 21 acres of tropical land. Property features at Welk Resorts
Kauai include open-air lobbies, a private movie theater, game rooms,
spas and a white sand beach pool with waterslides, tropical landscaping
and lava rock formations.
“Welk Resorts timeshares has a long history of being movers and shakers
in the industry,” said Fredricks. “Our development strategy is focused
on working on the right deals in the right locations and these planned
developments underscore a growing number of opportunities for the brand
in more mature markets like Breckenridge and Kauai.”
