In the thick of a Vermont winter, there’s nothing quite as satisfying than escaping the snow for a wonderful meal in a cozy cabin restaurant. The historic Johnny Seasaw’s is just the place to go. After having been closed for a few years, this long-standing spot has reopened and is chock full of warmth and delicious comfort food.
Seesaw's Lodge was one of the first ski lodges in Vermont established in 1938. Prior to that in the 1920s, the establishment in Peru was a rowdy roadside dancehall with infamous "sin cabins" and bootleg liquor. The lodge and restaurant have been renovated and reopened after a 4-year closure and you'll definitely want to check it out.
As much of the original wood from the 1920's was salvaged and used to rebuild the lodge and restaurant. The results are a warm rustic interior where you'll immediately feel at home.
A central fireplace keeps Johnny Seesaw's toasty even on the coldest of days, while the scrumptious array of food will keep your hunger at bay. Local ingredients with a flavorful twist elevate comfort food to a whole new tasty level.
Diners look forward to Thursdays and Saturdays when juicy prime rib with potato and vegetable sides appears on the menu. Delightful soups and appetizers take this coveted meal to first class status.
Steak, chicken, and seafood all have their spots in this rustic cabin restaurant. You can also claim a good old fashioned burger to satisfy your appetite.
Johnny Seesaw's is open Thursday - Monday 5 p.m. - 11 p.m. Find it in Seesaw's Lodge at 3574 VT-11, Peru, VT 05152 near the Bromley Ski Area. Check out their full menu and learn more about the history of this notorious spot by visiting their website.
