About the host

Hosted by Amy Velte

Host profile image
In the spring of 1963 the owner’s visited friends who had just completed their ski home on Magic Mountain. They introduced them to Hans Thorner, the owner of Magic and immediately embraced the concept of the Swiss Chalet village. The building began and they moved in in November of 1963.

In 1987 they purchased 2 additional lots and expanded the house to accommodate their expanding family of grandchildren. The house has grown and been updated several times and is very comfortable for all ages. The large round dining table made by the owner in the 60’s seats 10 and if it could talk would have 55 years of tales to tell. In the 90’s more property was purchased and trees cleared to open a view that boasts the beauty of the green mountains near and far. Spectacular sunsets from a covered deck extend the outdoor living regardless of the weather.
