Colony owners can convene with nature at Iron Mountain Associates’ Yurt, slated to open in time for the holidays, provided ample snowfall allows for the operation of the Iron Mountain Lift.

Following the planned holiday dates of December 21-23 and December 27-January 6, the yurt will be available every Friday, Saturday and Sunday until the end of the season.

Springboarding from the popularity and success of the Yurt, Iron Mountain Associates is considering the development of a permanent facility to serve as a Colony Club/restaurant. In exploring the best avenues for creating the most positive Colony owner and guest experience, we will be changing the format of the Yurt this winter.

As in previous years, Fridays will feature soup, salad, cookies, plus hot and cold drinks provided by IMA. On the weekends – and special weeks when the Yurt is open for additional days – the menu will be expanded, which will require an additional charge. While always including past favorites, such as salads, chicken and tilapia sandwiches, and grilled favorites, the new menu will include kid-friendly chicken fingers.  There will be weekend menu items that will change every day, including pastas, prime rib, Philly beef steak, fish tacos, barbecue and other specialty items.

For your convenience, meal charges and gratuity can be paid by credit card, checks or cash. IMA will host the expanded meal free of charge during the initial holiday operation period (December 21 – January 6). As a reminder, the Yurt is for the enjoyment of IMA guests, Colony Owners, their immediate family and their accompanied guests. In the event that you have guests in town who you would like to have visit the Yurt unaccompanied, please provide IMA with advance notice by contacting us at yurt@thecolonywpc.com. This year, we have increased the availability of seating in the Yurt, and hope to comfortably accommodate everyone when they arrive. Please be considerate of your neighbors and be cognizant of seating needs and over crowding.

Please note: Dogs are not allowed at the Yurt, including on the outside deck, so we respectfully request owners and guests leave their dogs at home.

The Yurt is available for private and special events, with reservations arranged by contacting Steve Richardson at Gateway Catering – (435) 640-9475, srich@allwest.net, or at our general Yurt email address: yurt@thecolonywpc.com.

We look forward to seeing you!
