Staff was great ans the breakfast was pretty decent for being part of the package. Little worn down but no issues on our part.
We arrived late, after 8pm, and it was no problem. Room was clean and comfortable. Other guests were quiet and there was no noise issue. We didn't take advantage of the indoor pool, but it looked warm and clean. Breakfast was great. Over all, stay was excellent. Definitely would recommend this motel.
The rooms were exceptionally clean, staff was friendly. Morning breakfast was good.
But the stay unfortunately was ruined with the paper thin walls between units. As we heard everything our neighbours was doing from watching tv, videos being watched on their phone to simply opening a bag of chips and their morning alarm. Alls to say this lead to a sleepless night.
The lodge was nice. Well kept and had great view of mountains. I suggest coffee machine in room would be nice touch. Having serve yourself breakfast would be better than ordering it in the bar.
Very clean, friendly owners and staff, nice breakfast. It's an older building, but all in good condition and what you see in the pictures is what you get.
It is a quaint hotel but the bed and pillows were great, indoor pool and hot tub, excellent breakfast and right on a beautiful river.

The grounds were wonderful with picnic tables and benches situated above a babbling brook. There’s a gazebo on the property and beautiful views of Mt Mansfield. The lodge is located in close proximity to the Stowe recreation path which is flat and paved and also has benches and picnic tables above a banking brook, the calmed nicest horses are in a pasture next to the path and are very friendly. There’s a corn maze on the path and numerous bridges over the brook. There’s a covered bridge near the start of the path. Breakfast in the lodge is a big time saver to get out on the fantastic nearby hiking trails.
Beautiful and very well cared for property sitting next to a small creek. Owners were very accommodating and the lodge is so close to many different activities. Would definitely recommend and stay there again.
Vintage type ski motel but updated with new heat/ac systems and remodeled rooms yet still maintaining a lodge feel. Cook to order breakfast was nice! Didn't use the pool/hot tub/sauna but they all looked well kept. Peaceful stream running on back of property and wildflower gardens. Easy access to both town of Stowe and mountain attractions.
