I'm writing this review from my bed early before a day of biking with my son at KFL. What can I say…read more- this place is great. And we found it by accident! My wife found it online the day before we came up on a busy June weekend. The quick rundown is there's a big converted barn where we stayed. The rooms are clean, rustic and charming. The barn lodge was quiet each night while it was clearly a busy weekend. There's also camping allowed on the site, but the vibe is mature and family friendly. Everyone we met was kind and polite to me and my 9 y/o son. There is a separate shared bathroom and shower facility about 30 feet from the barn. While this may not be everyone's thing, the indoor and outdoor showers are all clean, strong and felt wonderful after a day out on the trails. There is a large shared common area with a tv and nice space to read, which doubles as bike storage if you're rolling around on a $10,000 sled. There's also a shared fridge and coffee there in the am. If you're coming up to bike the KTA trails or just enjoy the beauty of the region I can't recommend the farm enough. It may be my regular place to stay for future weekend trips.

I'm not a skier and visited Burke mountain for the first time with family who come every year…read more From what I hear and read, Burke is very affordable compared to Stowe and others.

If I could leave zero stars on this review, I would. First of all, they try to put two twin…read moremattresses on top of some old box springs and call it a king size bed however the separation between the two twin mattresses while you're sleeping creates a gap in the middle of the bed that you have to deal with every morning. I tried to switch rooms, but they didn't have any available. Also, we didn't have hot water for three days while we were there. I kept calling the front desk and they said that they would let management know. I asked if management was working on the boiler system or where they were in the process but got no answers. Also, in the north wing of the hotel, there was only one elevator working. That caused delays getting to and from anywhere that we needed to go on that side of the hotel. Naturally, we took the stairs just about every time which was better for us anyway. It's highly unfortunate under this new management. It used to be a really nice resort and we really used to love staying there.

We spent a couple of nights here during the off-season and enjoyed it very much. Although the room…read morewas a bit small, it was comfortable. The pool, hot tub, and sauna were welcoming as well. And we pretty much had it all to ourselves due to it being off-season. They provide a free tea and cookie hour from 4:00-5:00, but I would not recommend it. They need to offer organic teas and better cookie choices in our opinion. The staff were so very nice and offered a lot of advice about local businesses. We would certainly stay there again.

The room furnishings are very basic, but the beds and linens are wonderfully comfortable. We were pleasantly surprised to have a large two room suite with two bathrooms. The grounds are pretty and the pool and sauna inviting. The location is ideal. Coffee is available in-room, a nice coffee machine is available adjacent to the lobby, and the Inn is located steps from a delicious little breakfast cafe, right downtown. We enjoyed walking around town and shopping. I'd definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!

Set off by itself a short walk from the inn, the schoolhouse offers complete privacy in a very romantic setting. Really nice bathroom, too. We stayed in the same room 2 years ago and at that time a continental breakfast was included. This year, a made to order breakfast for $12 pp was offered instead, which was delicious and very filling before a day of skiing at nearby Burke Mt. Our waitress both mornings, Katy, was so friendly and provided excellent service. We look forward to staying in the schoolhouse again!

Not a bad place, but it you don't own a dog- stay away. When…read morethe heat came on my dog allergy kicked in big time. There's no avoiding it. Great view. The food is ok, it's food. The restaurant was closed and food was being served in the bar. When we arrived, the pool was broken so that sucked. Other places to eat are about 30 minutes away and I recommend doing that.

Lovely patio area, with open fire. The VIEWS are stunning!!!And worth every cent. Top floors do not have deck off rooms. Also, Mt. Washington view may be a little more expensive. We were in the other side of building, and it was just as. Ice. Hiking trails everywhere. We REALLY enjoyed our one night stay here during off-season.

Skiing at Jay's was an experience. The groomers were all…read morepretty rough, with barely any parts actually groomed. Did not enjoy any of them at all. The top half of the mountain was all just a tiny powder on top of ice . The ice gets shaved throughout the day to build up the powder that then gets slapped into something akin to moguls throughout the slopes. Talking to people on the lifts made it very clear that the focus of skiing here is on the glades and not the groomers. Unfortunately my lack of experience made it rather tough to enjoy that. It also wasn't until midday on our second day that we finally discovered some more beginner friendly glades. We ended up being able to enjoy the moons and the bushwacker path. The layout of the lodge is also strange. It feels cramped and crowded even though there werent too many people there. All the lifts feel far too slow as well. A wind cover at the least would be highly appreciated considering how long the ride up is. The misc Ramen truck is a highlight. Delicious lunch option. Truely a gift. Would recommend.

Another great ski trip in the books! It was my first time to Jay Peak and it was wonderful. They…read morehad a nice variety of terrain, tons of on site lodging options and non skiing family friendly activities. Overall, the terrain was a little more advanced but had a few short trails for beginners. Several long blue runs and a few groomed black runs in addition to many more difficult mogul black runs. Lots of glades areas if that is your cup of tea. The resort was big enough that you had plenty to explore for a few days and also if you went with a group it wasn't so huge that it was impossible to meet up or find friends if you took an accidental detour. We opted for a package and it was reasonable. We chose to stay at the golf cottages which were perfect for our group, and could get around the resort with their shuttle system. There was a movie theater, bowling alley, climbing wall, mini golf as well as general store, bars and restaurants on site. If you buy a package some of the activities might be included in your price. If you want to eat off site there are a few restaurants about 15 minutes away. It was nice that they had so many things to do because this resort is in a pretty remote area and there isn't a ton around in the near vicinity.

Rather than ordering from the menu, I gave our server complete creative freedom and asked her to choose my entire meal without telling me what I'd be getting. It turned out to be one of the best dining decisions I've ever made. The evening began with an exquisite foie gras served with duck and a beautifully balanced fruit purée. The texture was impossibly smooth and luxurious, while the flavors were rich, elegant, and unlike anything I've experienced before. For my main course, she selected perfectly seared scallops accompanied by a delicate tortellini and a silky scallop purée. Every bite was expertly prepared, with each component complementing the others without overpowering them. What made the evening truly memorable wasn't just the outstanding food--it was the trust I placed in our server and the exceptional care she took in creating a meal that felt both personal and unforgettable. From start to finish, the service was impeccable, and the entire experience was one I'll be talking about for a long time. If you're looking for a truly special dining experience, I can't recommend this restaurant highly enough.

We didn't have to wait long to be seated even though there were six of us. There were so many appealing items on the menu that it was hard to chose. Our server, Chau, was patient and helpful (even when I changed my mind about what to eat). Most of us ordered non-alcoholic drinks (their lemonade is delicious and not too sweet) and their home-baked bread, which was cut into quarters, was hearty and delicious, especially with the fresh butter that melted on impact. I started out with the Gaspacho, which was nice and cold, flavorful and just a bit chunky. For the main course I chose the Lobster Roll, without the roll, with half salad and half french fries. The meal in total was out of this world, and if I lived here I'd be at this place frequently. This restaurant also has facilities for recreation such as swimming pools, spa and I believe you can book a room as well. The grounds are spectacular and a perfect place to get away from the city. This establishment was awarded with the distinction at par with the Micheline 5-star rating, and I can understand why, even only having seen a fraction of the facilities. It's a little piece of heaven.

The fact that the story was true and that this famous singing family settled in Stowe, VT because it reminded them of their homeland, well, it's been a long-time dream of mine to visit the Von Trapp Family Lodge in Stowe and feel the connection in person. And so I did... in July 2025, some SIXTY years after seeing the Sound of Music. We actually didn't stay here, which seems kind of odd considering what a fan I am. Now that I know how much there is to do in Stowe... and at the lodge itself, perhaps if we come back with plans to stay longer, I would stay here. The Von Trapp Family Lodge has so much to offer a person... whether one stays here or not. These are some of the activities: 1. Hiking 2. Mountain biking 3. Skiing / Cross-country skiing 4. Horse-drawn carriage rides 5. Sleigh Rides 6. Disc golf 7. Yoga / Massage 8. Bicycle rentals 9. Tennis 10. Swimming 11. Rock Climbing Wall 12. Indoor arts / crafts / culinary classes 13. Wine and/or beer tastings 14. Choice of 4 restaurants We thoroughly enjoyed walking around the lodge and grounds and learning more about the family and the history behind the lodge. Since this (ironically) my 1700th review, it's fitting that such a special place falls on a noteworthy review number.
