     History
    Haven't been able to dig up much information about it. From talking with a local, it seems to have shut down sometime in the 1960s. Talisman Resort nearby might be buying it/have bought it for expansion. The chalet was built, obviously, prior to the Niagara Escarpment regulations, which explains the red roof (new roofs are required to "blend in with the surroundings".
