Mountain Lake Lodge in Southwest Virginia: History, Mystery, and Hollywood

  • Resumen

  • What did you think of this episode?

    Join us as we spend a weekend at beautiful Mountain Lake Lodge in this Appalachian Places and Spaces episode. Hear about the history of the lodge, dating back to the 1700's, and why the property was once known as "Salt Pond." We'll fast forward to the 1980's to find out how directors of the classic Dirty Dancing movie discovered Mountain Lake Lodge, and some behind-the-scenes tidbits about the movie (and the expected filming of Jennifer Grey's Dirty Dancing II.) I'll talk with VP of Sales Lyndsi Hale about how the lodge embraces its Dirty Dancing connections, and you'll hear everything you need to know about the first Dirty Dancing Summer Festival August 16-17th.
