Haystack Mountain in Wilmington, Vt., is getting a new life and a new face. It is resurfacing as the Haystack Club, a members-only, four-season private resort in Vermont’s Green Mountains. The Haystack Ski Resort and Golf Club was recently purchased by Jim Barnes, owner of the adjoining Hermitage Inn, a four-star country inn with dining facilities, a 9-mile hiking and cross country ski trail, mountain biking, snow tubing, snowmobiling, ice-skating and fly-fishing. Club members will have access to the Desmond Muirhead-designed golf course and the ski area in addition to the Hermitage’s offerings. The inn will serve as Haystack’s base lodge this season. The Master Plan calls for about 38 ski homes on two to three-acres to be built in 2012; the Haystack Club Hotel and 51,000-square-foot Club Lodge which will include the spa and wellness center, five-star restaurant, and lounge are targeted for 2013.
