The Lodge at Mad River, VT
The lodge is situated at Mad River Glen and is a short walk to the lifts (including the famed single chair). The slopes of Sugarbush Resort are just a short drive away (for a change of pace or if you ride). It's an hour from either Stowe or Killington/Pico and a bit further to the southern Vermont areas. For those into cross-country skiing, there are several Nordic ski areas nearby, and of course snow-shoeing right from the doorstep,
The 40-person lodge has 10 bedrooms each with ensuite toilet and shower, a spacious living room with a fireplace and cathedral ceiling, and a modern kitchen and dining room. During the ski season, a chef is often provided at modest cost to members and guests.
The lodge provides an excellent base for a wide range of activities year-round, including hiking, biking, swimming, golf and just relaxing in an ideal mountain location.
Club member David Nelson took these great photos of the lodge interior. If you have never been there, these will give you a good idea of what it is like. Imagine this, though, filled with a crowd of happy, hungry skiers! We eat our meals here, and sometimes when there is a party, the tables and benches are folded and stacked. Notice, in the far corner on the wall, our ski tuning foldout station.
