10/10 Excellent
"I had read some reviews that scared me about the property, I was pleased that I had a pleasant stay. My room was very clean and everything was nice in the room. The hotel is a older property that could use a little updating, but overall everything about the building and staff was good. The elevator needs work. The location was perfect, restaurants right next door. The only issue was something out of the control of the hotel. Several of the guest appeared to live at the motel lounging around the motel lobby and parking lot."

8/10 Good
"Very nice stay overall. Booked a room with a deck and expected to be looking at a gorgeous mountain scene, not the parking area. On the bright side however, our room was next to a charging station, a pleasant perk for our Tesla! The room was small, but clean and had all the essentials. Coffee service great the first morning of our stay and a bit “slap dash” the second. The hallways were a bit noisy when guests came and went. The service team was professional and friendly. This property is very attractive and well situated on the Mountain Road in Stowe. They have a nice indoor pool and a sauna, which I enjoyed daily. This lodge is an excellent value for the price … and my wife and I would consider returning the next time we visit Stowe."
