The original Quartz Mountain Lodge was built in 1955. It had 44 rooms, indoor and outdoor swimming pools and a tennis court. A 9-hole golf course was built in 1959 and expanded to 18 holes in 1993. An electrical fire destroyed public access areas of the lodge in 1995, but spared the wing with rooms. It reopened two months later, but in 1998, closed again for demolition. A new lodge was built, which opened under private management in 2001. The new lodge complex includes 118 guest rooms, several cabins, a restaurant, a performing arts complex and shops.
