WASHINGTON, March 28, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Suncadia – an award-winning mountain resort and residential community located a scenic 80 miles east of Seattle on the sunny side of the Cascade Mountains – announces today the forthcoming completion of a $4 million renovation investment in The Lodge, located in the heart of the resort. Set to debut in late May, the renovations encompass a revitalization of more than 10,000 square feet of the Lodge's first floor, including the lobby, Great Room, new dining concept, and den space. Suncadia will celebrate the completion of the renovations with a grand reopening of The Lodge, marking the first milestone in a series of destination-wide enhancements and additions over the next several years, ushering in a new chapter in the Suncadia experience.
"As the centerpiece of the destination, The Lodge at Suncadia sets the tone for an enriching and quintessentially Washington escape for our guests and residents, serving as the jumping off point for unparalleled access to all the Pacific Northwest has to offer" , says Jamee Smith, chief officer of marketing and sales for Suncadia. "With the renovations, guests can expect entirely reimagined arrival and dining experiences, modernized design, and a welcoming atmosphere in keeping with the warm hospitality for which the destination has become known. We couldn't be more excited to celebrate this transformation as the first among many to come for Suncadia".
A REIMAGINED LODGE EXPERIENCE
Poised high above the Cle Elum River offering panoramic views of the river valley and Cascade Range, The Lodge at Suncadia is inspired by the grand lodges of Washington's National Parks and designed to uniquely epitomize the state's spirit of adventure. The first-floor renovations capture that authentic sense of place, reflective of the environment, culture, and mining history of nearby towns Cle Elum and Roslyn by using natural materials sourced locally. Prioritizing sweeping, expansive views above all, the renovations will introduce enlarged windows overlooking the mountain backdrop, enhanced seating throughout the Great Room, and custom-commissioned art and furniture from local artisans for a sense of understated luxury where guests can feel at ease.
Alongside improvements to the lobby, Great Room, and den, The Lodge will also debut a new flagship restaurant called The Source. Envisioned as a family-friendly and convivial gathering space for hearty, shareable meals, The Source invites diners to linger together around the table over classic comfort dishes prepared with playful twists, all served with an impeccable attention to hospitality and detail. Menu highlights include Burnt Ends with huckleberry teriyaki, fresh cabbage salad; Mushroom Wellington with broccolini, white mushroom sauce, smoked petit reds; and for dessert, a table-top bonfire with house made marshmallows and smores fixings. The Source will welcome diners for breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily, and will be open to resort guests, Suncadia residents, and area locals alike.
Offering a lively, open-concept dining and lounge experience across The Lodge's first floor, the newly designed space provides expanded indoor and outdoor seating for guests to take full advantage of the unmatched views of the Cascades as well a new coffee shop and market, The Source Mercantile.
"We're thrilled to welcome a new dining experience to the destination whose name speaks for itself – an inviting, community-driven gathering space that diners are continuously drawn back to", says Andrew Wilson, director of restaurants, bars and events. "Each dish was carefully created to tell a narrative around the Pacific Northwest region from which the ingredients are sourced. The menu largely features local and trusted purveyors to not only reduce our carbon footprint but contribute to the overall growth of the local community beyond Suncadia".
In the next phase of Lodge renovations, slated for completion by 2026, Suncadia will pursue a transformation of guest room accommodations.
REFRESHED COMMUNITY AMENITIES
Throughout the year, Suncadia will initiate and complete a series of improvements across the community, bringing to fruition an entirely renewed destination experience.
At the historic Nelson Farm, once a working dairy farm, Suncadia will complete a $1.5 million expansion to the 1.7-acre Nelson Farm Park this summer. Inclusive of a 455-foot pump track designed by Velosolutions and American Ramp Company and a new playground designed by Site Workshop, Nelson Farm Park utilizes organic and up-cycled materials to blend into the natural beauty of the area, including re-used logs and rocks from Nelson Lakes.
Come fall, Suncadia's award-winning Glade Spring Spa will undergo renovations to its outdoor sanctuary space and outdoor soaks, which upon completion will provide guests with an enhanced spa and wellness experience unlike anything else in the state.
