Our Past and Future
Deer Valley History
Since opening in 1981, Deer Valley Resort has redefined the North American ski experience through a commitment to exceptional service, thoughtful design, and uncompromising quality. Our staff members are dedicated to service, which is the key to the resort’s current and future success.
Founded by Edgar and Polly Stern, Deer Valley introduced a hospitality-driven approach to skiing—combining world-class guest service, luxury amenities, and meticulously groomed terrain. What began with five chairlifts, two day lodges, and a pioneering vision has grown into one of the most celebrated ski destinations in the world.
From day one, Deer Valley has been guided by three core brand pillars: providing exceptional guest service, offering a ski-only resort experience, and limiting daily skier visitation to preserve a premium on-mountain environment. These values remain central to how we operate today. rich-text, responsive-table
