History

William Merk is the founder of HoliMont, who began immersing himself in his passion for skiing after witnessing the 1932 Winter Olympics at Lake Placid. In 1961, he purchased land to start a resort, which opened the following year. Over the decades, the family-friendly locale continued to expand, becoming the retreat it is today.

Best Decision Ever for a Venue!

We had our wedding at HoliMont and it was truly the most magical experience from start to finish. Working with Bill and Mike made the entire process feel seamless—they were always available, whether we had a quick question or needed to clarify last-minute details. Their support and responsiveness gave us so much peace of mind throughout the planning and the big day.

The venue itself is absolutely stunning. The wood interior of the lodge created the perfect warm, rustic atmosphere for our dinner, and the hilltop ceremony space—accessed by chairlift!—was breathtaking. It was such a unique and unforgettable way to start our celebration.

The entire HoliMont staff went above and beyond for us all week long. They were kind, helpful, and genuinely part of the fun—even joining us with dancing during the reception, after they got invited to join the fun!

Choosing HoliMont as our wedding venue was one of the best decisions we made. It brought our dream day to life, and we’ll be forever grateful for the experience. If you’re considering having your wedding here, do it. You will not regret it!

Beautiful Fall Wedding

My husband and I were married at Holimont last Fall. We had an amazing experience from start to finish. The Holimont team was very responsive and went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable. The day went without even a single hiccup. The price is also extremely reasonable for how much value you get. I loved everything about my wedding and I can't thank the team at Holimont enough for making our wedding day so amazing, unique, and special.

A Terrific Success!

My experience at Holimont for our daughter's wedding celebration was nothing short of amazing. The venue is beautiful with the ski slopes as a backdrop. The staff at Holimont was always attentive, very thorough and willing to go above and beyond to make sure our event was a success.

The food was absolutely delicious. I cannot say enough about Dina's at The Mont. The staff knocked it out of the park with a huge seafood buffet, paella station, massive charcuterie, and a beautiful display of various hot and cold hors d'oeuvres. The answer was always yes to any special request we had for food and bar service. Culinary experts to say the least!

Overall, I recommend Holimont with hesitation for weddings, celebrations or any type of special event.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
