Weekend of May 19th & 20th

30th Annual LILAC FESTIVAL!

Surrounded by mountains, Pine Mountain Club is a tiny village that takes on a mystical look for about 48 hours during festival time when it is filled with Artisans, performers, musicians, people and families who just want to forget the crazy world for a day or two and have some old fashioned simple fun. The Craft Booths open at 9 AM. Get here early so you don’t miss anything!

Our mountains may still have some snow on top to add to a perfect day. Come on up, you’ill be glad you did. Many of our local residents came for the day and are still here – 27 years later!
