I have never written a review before. I have no affiliation to the owners or management of Stowe Mountain Lodge. This past week was the school vacation week in MA. Last minute my wife and I decided that we would take a few days away from the 90+ inches of snow in Boston and find more snow in Vermont.... We did not expect to find any availability at the Stowe Mountain Lodge and were very happy to see there was still vacancy. Our family of three stayed in a standard 'Classic' room. In short, our four days were simply perfect. The room was surprisingly spacious with two twin beds, balcony, large bathroom. The Ski Valet service sounds fancy but really is great and practical. I have traveled the world on business and experienced the best and worst of hospitality - and I can honestly say that EVERYONE at the SML was courteous, genuinely helpful, and seemed to genuinely care about the guests having a great time. Very impressive. Sure it wasn't a cheap stay but I feel it was an investment in a family vacation and memories that we will fondly remember for years. Highly recommended for families yet the facility is kids-friendly without it being all about the kids. Fantastic facility and hospitality.
