With the holidays behind us and Vermont looking like a winter wonderland, you might be craving a wintry escape. And while a tropical vacation sure sounds nice, so does embracing the cold and stealing away to this mountaintop lodge that looks as pretty as a postcard — especially when covered in a blanket of snow.
Nestled in central Vermont, just a short drive from Killington Ski Resort, there’s no better place to spend a cozy winter weekend than the Mountain Top Inn & Resort.
Featuring 700 private acres perched at the top of a quiet mountain road, a 740-acre lake, miles upon miles of trails, and expansive meadows in addition to its close proximity to the Green Mountain National Forest, stunning views of the Vermont countryside abound at the Mountain Top Inn & Resort.
Escape for a romantic winter weekend with your significant other or bring the entire family — including Fido! Choose from classic and luxury rooms and suites as well as cozy cabins and gorgeous guesthouses, some of which are pet-friendly.
...or participate in a wide variety of winter activities — from skiing and snowshoeing to ice skating, snowmobiling, and sledding — this is the ultimate retreat. You can even take a sleigh ride through the woods!
After a day full of adventure or relaxation, there’s no better way to wind down (and perhaps plan for tomorrow) than with a delicious meal at the resort’s brand new restaurant or in their Tavern. You’ll find a dozen local craft brews at both eateries, but we suggest the restaurant for a more upscale experience, and the tavern, for a casual, relaxed atmosphere.
With luxurious lodging, artfully crafted cuisine served in their on-site restaurant and tavern, year-round activities, and a full-service salon and spa, you may come for the view — but you’ll stay (and keep coming back year after year) for the experience.
Mountain Top Inn & Resort is located at 195 Mountain Top Rd., Chittenden, VT 05737. For more information, or to book your stay, visit their website or follow them on Facebook.
