A company holiday party nobody leaves early
Private luxury chalets at the base of Blue Mountain for a company Christmas or year-end party of 5 to 50 — dinner, drinks and the night in the same house, so nobody is driving home after.
The problem with a restaurant holiday party is the end of it. The room is booked until ten, the bill is per plate, half the team has one eye on the drive home, and the part people actually remember never gets started. A chalet changes the shape of the night. Your company takes over the whole property: dinner at a long table, the fireplace going, the games room and the hot tub for the hours after, and a bedroom upstairs for everyone in the room. The party ends when it ends. The next morning is breakfast together, not a group text about who left their coat where.
Ideal for
- Company Christmas and holiday parties for teams of 5 to 50
- Year-end celebrations with awards or a recognition evening
- Companies who want the party and a planning session in one trip
- Teams tired of a restaurant back room and a 10 PM cut-off
- Departments spread across offices, meeting once a year in one place
- Firms whose people should not be driving home after the party
Nobody drives home
The single reason planners move the holiday party out of a restaurant. Everyone has a bedroom in the house the party is in, with two beds in every room and a private bathroom for nearly all of them. The evening can run as late as it runs.
No per-plate minimum, no bar tab
There is no in-house catering and no food and beverage minimum. Bring a private chef or a caterer, cook in the full kitchen, or walk ten minutes to the restaurants in Blue Mountain Village. Drinks are yours to bring, so the night is not priced by the glass.
The party and the planning in one trip
Most companies that come up in December do both: the honest year-end session in the great room during the day, the celebration that evening. One trip, one quote, and the team is already in the room for both.
How a stay runs here
Arrive in the afternoon
Drive up after lunch, check in from 4 PM, claim bedrooms and get the fire going before anyone thinks about dinner.
The year, honestly
An hour or two in the great room while everyone is still sharp: what the year actually was, and what next year has to be.
Dinner at the long table
A private chef, a caterer, or the team cooking together. One table, fourteen to a chalet, nobody at a separate sitting.
Awards and the speeches
The part that dies in a restaurant works in a living room. Smart TVs for the slideshow, and the room is yours for as long as it takes.
The long part of the night
Hot tub, ping pong, the fire, the people who never talk at work talking. No last call and no taxi queue.
Breakfast, then home
Coffee and a slow start, check out at 11 AM, and a 2 to 2.5 hour drive back to the GTA.

“This was another successful stay at this property! We’ve stayed here in the past, and the experience continues to be great. Snezhana was extremely responsive, attentive, and helpful throughout the entire visit. The space is perfect for accommodating large groups, and I would definitely stay here again!”
Good to know
How far ahead should we book a December date?
Three to four months if you want a December weekend; those are the most requested dates of the year at the resort. A midweek date in early December is far easier to secure, and so is a January celebration if your calendar allows it.
Is there a bar, or catering on site?
Neither, and that is usually the point. There is no food and beverage minimum and no bar tab. Every chalet has a full kitchen and a gas BBQ, our Things to Do page lists private chefs and caterers you contact directly, and the Village restaurants are a ten-minute walk.
Can we hold the party without staying overnight?
A day-and-evening format can be quoted, but almost every company stays, so nobody is driving after the party. Tell us which you want when you ask for a quote.
Can we have music and a DJ?
Music at a reasonable level inside the chalet is fine. Amplifiers and high-volume sound systems are not permitted, and the area has a noise by-law that applies at all hours, so a DJ on the deck is not an option.
How many people can we seat for dinner?
Fourteen at one table in each chalet, so 42 across the three booked together, with a neighbouring Tyrolean Village chalet taking a company to 50.
