Eric Christensen

Senior Vice President, Hospitality

Eric joined Lone Mountain Land Company in 2017 to manage the planning and development of the firm’s luxury hotel and resort projects. In his 30 plus year career, he has planned, developed, financed, operated, and marketed hotels and resorts around the world. 

Leveraging this experience, LMLC put Eric in charge of the development and construction of Montage Big Sky, a luxury resort that opened in the winter of 2021/22 with 100 guest rooms and has grown to include 86 Montage-branded residences. 

Currently, he oversees the development of One&Only Moonlight Basin, an extraordinary resort and residential property that will be the first One&Only destination in the United States.

Prior to joining LMLC, Eric held CEO positions at Irongate at Costa Palmas in Los Cabos, a 1,000-acre mixed-use resort community and marina, as well as Dorado Beach Resort in Puerto Rico, where he redeveloped that property into a 130-room ultra-luxury Ritz Carlton Reserve hotel with branded residences. Eric has extensive consulting and development experience for hotel and resort groups such as Hyatt, Hilton, Intercontinental, Marriott, Starwood and Disney.

Eric lives in Big Sky full-time, where he and his family enjoy such outdoor pursuits as skiing, hiking, and biking.

Eric holds MBA and M.Ed. degrees from Stanford University and a B.A. from Dartmouth College.
