Property Description

Opening Fall of 2007 Stowe Mountain Lodge. Who’d imagine you could rediscover civilization by leaving it all behind? Perhaps it’s the pristine location, the classic beauty, or the history that has evolved here. Or maybe it’s the fact that one cultivates a sense of contentment throughout every season at Stowe. Now, with the advent of Stowe Mountain Lodge, this unique New England town will reaffirm its place as a renowned destination for discerning world travelers. For over a century Stowe has attracted the world’s most discerning travelers, who have cherished the beauty of the area’s covered bridges, sparkling lakes, rambling woodlands and majestic peaks. When it opens in fall 2007, Stowe Mountain Lodge will set a new standard of luxury and aesthetics for the East Coast’s most magnificent resort. Built in the new “Vermont-Alpine” style, Stowe Mountain Lodge will offer a truly luxurious setting, while still paying respect to the Vermont traditions of utilizing local artisan products and embracing the tranquility of nature. The six-story, 139-room lodge draws on the architectural tradition of turn-of-the-century summer camps created by the great families of New England. The lodge’s exterior features a picturesque façade of woven timber and shingles that draw upon the natural harmony found in nature, as well as stone veneer created from local quarries, and expansive glass to bring the beauty of the lodge’s outdoor surroundings to the indoors. The interior design will further emphasize the fresh and contemporary take on natural beauty, enabling guests to experience Vermont through a mélange of old and new, rustic and romantic. Interchanging natural Vermont woods and stones, birch bark columns and detailing will provide a simplistic backdrop to lively, contemporary folk art pieces. The color palette of the local seasons – vibrant reds, deep oranges, warm yellows and soothing greens – in varying patterns and textures will be found in the upholstery of inviting furnishings. Each room has been custom-designed as a respite from the hustle and bustle of every day life, with warm tones, plush furnishings and soothing amenities. All rooms will be framed by oversized windows and outdoor balconies, allowing guests to take full advantage of the remarkable mountain landscape of Mt. Mansfield and Spruce Peak. SKI/SNOWBOARD FEATURES Elevation of 4,395 feet at Mt. Mansfield, Vermont’s highest peak 63 total km of skiing 48 total trails More mile-long lifts than any resort in the east 16% beginner trails 59% intermediate trails 25% expert trails Longest run: 3.7 miles, Toll Road Snowboarding halfpipe The world’s fastest high-speed, 8-passenger gondola 35 km of groomed terrain and 40 km of back country trail for cross-country skiing Only ski area in New England to have a fully automated snowmaking system on one of its mountains, Spruce Peak. GOLF A breathtaking mountain course designed by the legendary Bob Cupp, with the help of Mother Nature. It’s especially rare that an 18-hole, par 72-championship course can challenge every level of player but remain friendly to the environment. Such is the case at the Stowe Mountain Club golf course - 6,400 environmentally respectful yards, soon to become Vermont’s first Audubon International certified course.
