Keystone Real Estate

Keystone Resort’s history started in 1941 when Max Dercum purchased the Black Ranch (now known as Ski Tip Lodge) along the Snake River and began to dream about the concept of Keystone Ski Area. During the 1960s, Max Dercum and Bill Bergman actively pursued the development of Keystone Mountain with the vision of establishing an international ski area. In 1967, their dreams were realized. Keystone acquired approximately 513 acres of land from Wheaton College and private individuals. The ski area opened with two lifts at the Key base area (now know as the Mountain House Base Area) and 75,858 skiers flocked to the new ski area for a mere $5 per person. Today Keystone Resort consists of 20 lifts including 2 gondolas, 1 express six-pack and 5 high speed quads servicing over 2,800 acres with the only night skiing in Colorado and a terrain park for snowboarders. In addition to skiing, Keystone has two 18-hole championship golf courses, riding stables, is developing a multi-purpose freestyle training and recreation center and numerous outdoor and indoor activities for all ages year round.

Keystone has five unique real estate locations. East Keystone is home to the Ski Tip Lodge and most properties are located in a serene, wooded setting with views of beaver ponds and the Snake River. River Run is the newest village. Real estate in River Run ranges from affordable to luxury with easy walking access to lifts, shops, dining, nightlife and special events year-round. The Mountain House area is Keystone's original base area with an array of skier services and a new "Youth Zone" complete with an arcade, pizza, bar and lift access to the lighted terrain park. Lakeside Village properties surround the picturesque Keystone Lake and ice rink. West Keystone's real estate offers easy access to Keystone's two golf courses, hiking, and shuttles to the other villages and lifts.
