Carrie Williams has been appointed General Manager at Aspen Meadows Resort
Salamander Collection has appointed Carrie Williams as the new general manager of Aspen Meadows Resort. A hospitality and operations professional who has called the Aspen area home for 20 years, Williams will assume the role on June 14.
The AAA Four Diamond-rated resort, which attracts visitors, families and corporate retreats from around the world, recently completed a comprehensive renovation of its spacious guest accommodations and stylish reception and opened its acclaimed new restaurant West End Social.
Williams currently serves as managing director of operations and facilities for the Aspen Institute, which owns Aspen Meadows. Since 2020 she has served as a strong liaison for the resort helping driving capital projects, leading sustainability and key housing initiatives, and completing a variety of renovation projects.
Managed by Salamander Collection, which was founded by Sheila Johnson, Aspen Meadows features 98 suites and is located on 40 beautiful acres surrounded by picturesque mountain views. A secluded sanctuary, the resort is the original home of the Aspen Institute and brings Aspen's past and present to life with unique art and history alongside ample access to the outdoors and mountain recreation. Throughout the year, Aspen Meadows hosts the Institute's famed array of programming, including the Aspen Ideas Festival.
Prior to joining the Aspen Institute in 2020, Williams was director of operations at The Limelight Hotel in Aspen and held various leadership roles at The Little Nell, where she developed a deep appreciation for exceptional food and wine paired with warm, attentive service. Originally from Pennsylvania, she is a passionate animal lover, enjoys fine food and wine, and discovering new flavors and experiences wherever she goes. Away from her desk, you'll find her traveling abroad, fishing, or diving.
