The Burke experience is one that resonates with the Northeast Kingdom all around it - natural, uncrowded, unhurried, a family-friendly atmosphere where the worries are few. While the 3267' Burke is plenty of mountain (45 trails/glades, three terrain parks and 250 acres of pure skiing/boarding magic) it is decidedly un-mega-resort. And those who have discovered this rare bit of authentic ski mountain like it that way. No wonder then that the Ginn Resorts' purchase of Burke in 2005 raised worries that the mountain might be cloned into yet another big overdeveloped resort. Good news: Burke will still be Burke, only better. The new owner's development inspiration comes from understanding and honoring the balance that makes Burke special. All told, the company plans to invest over $100 million - creating a four-season resort that retains Burke's natural beauty and charm while adding welcome improvements that everyone loves. Call it the best of both worlds.
