The Mountain View Grand was first owned by the Dodge Family. The Dodge family welcomed their first visitors into their home in the summer of 1865. Frank Schuyler Dodge took charge of the Mt. View House bringing the resort to world-class status from 1919-1948. In 1979 the Dodge family sold the Mt. View House.

The Eisenhower Library was named after President Eisenhower. He held his important meetings in this room.

The Movie Theater is a new addition to the resort that has 17 leather seats with a wide screen where you can enjoy your favorite movie with popcorn and water.

The Pool Area used to be the carriage house. In the early days horse and carriage would pick up and drop off guests of the hotel. It is now used for indoor swimming. The walls are beautifully painted with a forest design.

The Crystal Ball Room still to this day is used for dining and dancing. The ball room is decorated with gorgeous chandeliers. As you are dining you can look out the window and see the fish pond.

The Tower is known to be haunted with the “gray lady” that lives on the 4th floor. She was a chambermaid that fell in love with a long term guest. The gentleman was suppose to come back for her, did not so she took her own life and now travels the halls waiting for his return. The tower has been renovated to an award winning spa.

The Windmill is a new addition to the resort. This windmill is a 3 bladed propeller which can reach speeds up to 300 miles per hour. The resort is 100% wind powered.

The Farm was the start of what the Mt. View is today. At the barn you can see several different animals such as; horses, goats, sheep, donkeys, bunnies, and chickens. The eggs from the chickens are used at the hotel for cooking.

Clues for the Quest:

1. Start in the main lobby of the Mt. View Grand

2. From the lobby follow the hallway (on your right), you will pass a sitting room and on your right you will find the library.

3. From the library go left down the hall, take the exit door which will lead you downstairs to the pool area.

4. Go back up the first flight of stairs, take a right down the hallway and movie theater is on your left.

5. From the movie theater, take a right to the stair well go up and left to the main lobby, go up the main staircase, bear right following the hallway which will bring you to the crystal ball room.

6. Leaving the ball room follow the same path back to the main lobby. Exit the front doors and go left around the resort through the parking lots to the dirt road to the red barn.

7. Please do not go in the barn your reward is outside.

8. Look carefully around the fenced area closest to the barn and you will find your quest!
