Northern VT mountain resorts serve Stowe and Jay

Your trip to the glorious mountains of Vermont should start with a booking at the Green Mountain Inn. You’ll be front and center for all the great outdoor activities to be found in the Stowe area, from world-renowned alpine and Nordic skiing to snowshoeing, snowmobiling, skating, dog-sledding and tobogganing in the winter to spring and summer’s biking and swimming. And don’t forget autumn’s leaf-peeping, antiquing and hiking. At the inn, enjoy a year-round heated pool and in-ground outdoor whirlpool spa, a pool bar in the summer, fire pits, a fitness center, kid-friendly game room and gardens. Dine on fresh fare at the Whip Bar & Grill, then relax in your luxurious room, suite, apartment or townhouse (some with fireside hottubs).

In the heart of the classic mountain town of Stowe, the Stoweflake Mountain Resort & Spa is one of Vermont’s premier destinations.
