Holiday offers close-to-town skiing. Daily needs are simple with Tom’s East Bay and Oleson’s, Cherryland Center shops, Planet Fitness, and Fit For You Health Club; cafe stops include Common Good Bakery and neighborhood spots, and The Filling Station microbrewery anchors casual dining. According to Zillow Market Trends, recent median rent sits around $2,000, with most listings ranging roughly $1,400–$3,000+.
