VERNON, New Jersey ??\u0432\u0402\u045c Mountain Creek Resort announced today that the second stage of its Black Creek Sanctuary residential condominium homes, located near the slopes and main village of the resort in Vernon, New Jersey has completely sold out. An incredible success at the selection event resulted in 21 homes offered and sold — and as a result of strong consumer demand the resort released an additional seven homes which also sold — bringing the weekend sales total to 28 homes. Black Creek Sanctuary is a neighborhood of one-, two- and three-bedroom condos nestled in a serene, protected sanctuary in close proximity to the mountain. The initial offering of Black Creek Sanctuary features 84 completed homes, with the second stage available for occupancy in 2006.<\/p>\n
“We’re delighted with the sell out and see this as a natural development of the Mountain Creek community,” said Doug Ganssle, Director of Sales at Mountain Creek resort. “People have found a vibrant sense of community and a wonderful year-round playground in New Jersey. So it’s not surprising to us that homeowners have decided on Black Creek Sanctuary in such great numbers.”<\/p>\n
Mountain Creek recently unveiled its resort master plan and will soon play host to a world-class commercial and residential Village, which will be home to great shopping, fine restaurants and exciting nightlife along with a diverse range of lodging options. In addition to the Black Creek Sanctuary community, the resort recently sold out the slopeside, Appalachian condominium hotel.<\/p>\n
Mountain Creek is uniquely positioned in the Hamburg Mountains less than 50 miles from New York City. The resort currently draws visitors from the entire tri-state region and will become THE city escape destination. While already recognized nationally for its outstanding snowboard and ski facilities, the resort has four-season appeal with year-round activities including New Jersey’s biggest water-park, extensive hiking and biking trails, and some of the finest East Coast golf courses nearby.<\/p>\n
The Village at Mountain Creek is a multi-million dollar venture that will feature a wide variety of resort amenities:<\/p>\n
In addition to the extensive commercial and residential real estate development plans for the Village, Mountain Creek’s 1,040 vertical feet, 46 trails and 11 lifts have received $60 million in operational and on-hill improvements over the past four years. Ranked #1 for accessibility by SKI magazine, Mountain Creek is considered one of the East Coast’s best facilities with the only Superpipe in the region built to Olympic specifications. The mountain is home to the 2006 Chevrolet U.S. Snowboard Grand Prix, where the Olympic team will be named next January. With more than 170 skiable acres, Mountain Creek also boasts night skiing open until 10pm with more than 1,000 lights on all 46 trails and the tubing lanes. The mountain has North America’s only eight-passenger open-air gondola and has also upgraded its snowmaking capabilities with the most powerful snowmaking equipment in the region for a longer ski season for winter enthusiasts.<\/p>\n
Upon completion of the development efforts, Mountain Creek will be one of the East Coast’s largest and most attractive resort destinations following in the footsteps of Intrawest’s successful resorts, including Canada’s Whistler Blackcomb & Tremblant; Mammoth Mountain, California; and the popular Stratton Mountain, Vermont.<\/p>\n
