The award-winning Mountain Lake Lodge, where the iconic movie Dirty Dancing was filmed 36 years ago and afficionados can transport themselves back in time with the resort‘s popular “Dirty Dancing Weekends,” has debuted its 2024 schedule.
Located in the center of a 2,600-acre nature preserve and bird sanctuary in Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains, Mountain Lake Lodge – known as Kellerman’s Mountain House in the classic movie – is still the ideal place “to have the time of your life” as it mixes modern amenities and a variety of accommodations with numerous outdoor activities, nostalgia, and reminders of the cult classic – from dance lessons and self-guided tours of film locations, to parties, lawn games, scavenger hunts, and screenings of the original film.
Dirty Dancing-themed weekend dates for 2024 include:
- February 9 to 11
- April 26 to 28
- June 21 to 23
- July 26 to 28
- August 23 to 25
- September 13 to 15
- October 25 to 27
The resort is also offering its “Kellerman’s Film Package” to celebrate Dirty Dancing with any two-night stay on most dates throughout the year, subject to availability.
Included are a welcome cocktail in souvenir Kellerman’s glass, screening of the movie, themed scavenger hunt, $200 dining credit, and exclusive gift bag.
In addition, the resort’s Kellerman’s Gift Shop, the nation’s first brick and mortar store for official Dirty Dancing® merchandise, offers a collection of Dirty Dancing clothing and memorabilia.
Shoppers are intrigued with the store’s design, fashioned after the well-known studio where Baby learned to dance. The shop is open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily; merchandise is also available online at https://mtnlakelodge.shop.
