Village Development

When you visit the resort this season you may notice a few changes. Some buildings you may have seen before are gone, and in their place are new buildings. This is the beginning of a very exciting time at Purgatory Mountain—a part of our 20-year Master Plan that will offer a variety of lifestyle, recreational, and residential opportunities at the base of one of Colorado’s premier alpine resorts. Our plans will make your vacation at Durango Mountain Resort even better.

New Purgatory Lodge

The first phase of the new Purgatory Lodge is now open. This beautifully designed facility incorporates a strong use of stone, heavy timber, gabled roofs and balcony rail accents—all honoring the surrounding beauty of the mountains. Using Nature as our guide, we have favored the design with lovely earthen-tone colors and textures throughout. And, we have re-oriented the entire structure so that arriving guests will have a clear view to the majesty of Purgatory Mountain and trails.

Village Re-Development

We have thoughtfully and with great care woven in new construction, creating a special space in which to enjoy this slopeside mountain village’s bustling retail, dining, music and more. All the while, we remain sensitive to the natural surrounding beauty. Our new arrival court is now on the same level as the plaza, making it easy to unload gear and kids and head to the new ticket office.  The new Purgatory Lodge, our 130,000 square-foot development just steps from the Village Express Chairlift, featuring:

• upgraded skier services
• new retail, rental outlets
• Ski-on/Ski-out lodging
• a redesigned Purgy’s restaurant
• an impressive new day lodge with a state-of-the-art kitchen and dining area
• a full service day spa/salon
• a town square-style amphitheater
• and more
  

These momentous changes have allowed Purgatory Village to grow into the central gathering place for Purgatory Mountain, including a high-energy pedestrian event plaza, where we hold concerts, summer events, and fun daily activities.
