The Homewood Mountain Resort Master Plan: A New Approach

Ski areas traditionally generate sufficient revenue to sustain themselves through lift ticket sales. However, this business model has not been successful at Homewood. With limited bed capacity Homewood is primarily a commuter ski area. Highway 89 is already overcrowded on peak ski days and parking is inadequate to accommodate large skier turnouts.

A new business model is necessary for Homewood to remain a viable public recreational amenity. This new plan must not only limit peak skier visits and traffic but also attract visitors who will stay at the resort for several days.

A New Approach

The development of the Homewood Mountain Resort Master Plan has been guided by three principles crafted as a result of extensive input from the community:

  1. Remain consistent with the scale and character of Homewood
  2. Enhance the lifestyle and property values of West Shore residents
  3. Elevating the environmental thresholds within the Lake Tahoe Basin
