Fancy Owning a Ski Resort?

1st October 2025

Iron Mountain Ski Resort in California is yours for $5.8m.

It is southwest of Lake Tahoe, California, and the property spans 65 acres and includes existing ski lift towers.

It was previously known as Silver Basin Ski Resort and Ski Sundown.

Iron Mountain has operated intermittently since the early 1970s and 1995.

For one year, it was also named Carson Ski Area.

Iron Mountain has an inverted layout—the base lodge is above most of the skiable terrain, with visitors heading downhill after parking.
