For more than 25 years, families and their guests have enjoyed a gracious lifestyle and wealth of amenities unequaled by other communities, including the ability to fly in and land on Mountain Air’s 2,875-foot runway adjacent to the clubhouse.
Within the gates of Mountain Air, you can select from custom homes in neighborhood settings, experience carefree living in a condominium or villa, or create your own special mountain getaway on a private home site. A range of prices makes life here enticing and readily accessible. And once you’re here, you’ll quickly understand what it means to settle into an award-winning community that delivers “adventures at 4,600 feet above stress level.”

Several types and levels of membership are available within Mountain Air Country Club to fit most lifestyles and ensure the enjoyment of all the club’s amenities.
