Taylor opened the resort in 1972.[2] Taylor took pride in Woodbury being the first ski area in Connecticut to open each season.[1]

The ski area closed in 2016 following a drought and has not reopened. It has since been bought, however, its future is uncertain. The ski area may reopen in the coming years, as work has begun to get the park operational again.[3]
