Greek Peak - Question - Golf Course?

[Rambo]

Does anybody know if Greek Peak in Central New York is putting in a Golf Course?

The reason I ask is because, I read somewhere on the internet that Greek will not be putting much money into the ski area until the Golf Course is built. Don't know how reliable stuff on the internet is.

This was from a facebook post back in January:

The plan is as follows: This spring will begin the installation of a high speed quad from the base area to the top of what is now chair 4. At the top of this area will be built a new restaurant/lodge facility. There is also additional terrain suited for beginners at the top of the mountain. Look for this phase of the project to begin this spring if all goes well and end in approx 1 year.

Future trails will be build off of Arcadia Gate on Chair 5. There will be a trail under the new chairlift that will be installed, one over from the top of chair 4, and 2 that head toward the bottom of chair 5. Any trail map at the resort highlights these new proposed trails (one green, 2 blue, one black). Look for that to begin the year after the new lift is installed. ... See More

Along with that look for remodeling to the base area. All told this phase should take approx 2 years to complete, after financing is secured.

My understanding is that the mountain improvements are ahead of the golf course but who knows. I'm not overly optimistic about the time line especially in this economy - the lodge was 2 years behind schedule

This is my understanding as well---a new track around the area would be cool tho.
