Falling For Christmas, which has some incredible filming locations, is Netflix’s first release of the holiday season. In her role as Sierra Belmont, a spoilt hotel heiress who suffers from amnesia following a skiing accident and loses her identity, Lindsay Lohan has returned to the big screen. Ultimately, Jake looks after Sierra.
Unlike her father’s opulent Belmont Summit Resort, Jake owns the small, financially troubled ski lodge North Star Lodge. Falling For Christmas, which follows Sierra as she gives in to the Christmas spirit while spending time with Jake at his modest lodge and discovers how to be less selfish along the way, is a classic holiday film that employs a well-known cast.
Falling for Christmas takes place entirely at a ski resort with several hotels; the lodges and all of the picturesque scenes are virtually entirely located in Utah.
Falling For Christmas was announced in May 2021, and filming got underway in November 2021—perfect timing for the winter snow that serves as the backdrop for many of the movie’s scenes and the feel of a Christmas village.
Filming Locations
Three primary locations are featured in Falling For Christmas, which is regarded as Lindsay Lohan’s acting comeback: the opulent Belmont Summit Resort, to which Sierra is the heir; Jake’s North Star Lodge; and the resort’s ski slopes and surrounding areas.
Falling for Christmas was entirely shot in Utah from November 8 to December 15, 2021, which resulted in some incredibly authentically charming small-town, wintry atmospheres.
The majority of the filming took place in Park City or Salt Lake City; actual businesses from both locations were used to represent the fictional ones in Falling for Christmas. These are the locations where Falling for Christmas was filmed.
Stein Eriksen Lodge, Deer Valley, Park City, Utah
Falling For Christmas makes use of the Deer Valley resort, the Stein Eriksen Lodge, for filming, which is transformed into the North Star Lodge.
Compared to Falling for Christmas, which is portrayed as a sleepy lodge that needs financial assistance and has few guests, Stein Eriksen Lodge is a little more opulent.
Like Goldener Hirsch, the Stein Eriksen Lodge provides its visitors with opulent stays complete with spas, swimming pools, and fine dining. The Stein Eriksen Lodge serves as a haven for Sierra while she recovers from her skiing accident and spends time with Jake and his daughter Avy (Olivia Perez), during which they begin to fall in love, in Lindsay Lohan’s acting comeback Falling For Christmas.
Goldener Hirsch, Deer Valley, Park City, Utah
Sierra is in her element at her father’s opulent Belmont Summit Resort in the opening scene of Falling for Christmas.
The majority of the opening scenes of Falling for Christmas take place at the opulent Belmont Summit Resort, which has rooftop pools and modern furnishings.
This includes the scene where Jake unintentionally spills hot chocolate on Sierra. Goldener Hirsch, a real hotel that is a member of the Auberge Resorts Collection, is the same name as the Belmont Summit Resort.
The hotel is situated in Park City, Utah’s Deer Valley. Deer Valley is a big resort with Goldener Hirsch located in Silver Lake. It has been used for filming numerous times, including Jim Carey’s classic film Dumb and Dumber.
Salt Lake City and Park City, Utah
While many of the scenes outside of Goldener Hirsch and Stein Eriksen Lodge are shot in Salt Lake City and Park City, Utah, the majority of Falling for Christmas is filmed at these lodges. Given how fantastic snow sports are in Utah, it makes sense that Falling For Christmas chose to shoot its outdoor and skiing scenes in Salt Lake City and Park City.
Falling For Christmas uses the slopes for big moments, like when Tad (George Young, box office failure Malignant) proposes to Sierra, causing her to have a skiing accident, and Jake asks Beauregard Belmont for financial aid. Falling for Christmas follows the conventional Christmas movie plot line in both of these instances.
This includes the scene where Jake unintentionally spills hot chocolate on Sierra. Goldener Hirsch, a real hotel that is a member of the Auberge Resorts Collection, is the same name as the Belmont Summit Resort.
