Cozy, close to the bus stop, places to eat and a ski rental shop. Nothing fancy at the inn but it was exactly what I wanted for a weeked snowboarding trip.

Perfect place for a one night ski trip and reasonably priced compared to the overpriced places along the Stowe Mountains Road

Great price for a skiing weekend trip to Stowe. Very friendly hosts and they allowed us to check in early. Would definitely stay here again.
Free parking lot in the back but it was pretty icy and could use salt and plowing.

The heat did not work. They accommodated us with a space heater, which was fine but not optimal. Needed some updates.

We didn’t end up staying. I wasn’t aware that the rooms didn’t have their own bathroom. It was dark and kind of creepy. The man at the front desk was a delight, very friendly.

We had an enjoyable stay. Julien was very accommodating and friendly. The only comment we had, which is no reflection on Julian, was the bed and pillows were not the most comfortable. Otherwise the location was perfect and there was a lot to do in the area.

Clean and good price - great location
Mattress was not the greatest, but good for just one night
Internet needs a booster - did not work in room
AC was good
I would stay again

Friendly owners and simple checkin. Location is close to winter activities, a walking trail, "secret" swimming holes, and restaurants. A short drive to the Ben & Jerry's factory, Montpelier, Burlington, and the village of Stowe. Although it's not luxury accommodations like many of the other places in the area, it's definitely the most affordable for those who need a place to sleep and store their things while they get out and explore Vermont.

Excellent experience and price
I've stayed in a lot of "budget" motels, and this one is far an away the best. The owners appear to be a couple, and they are very sweet. The motel looks like it is older, but they've done a lot of work to make the rooms look cute and more modern. It is clean and has everything you'd need in a motel room, and you just really can't beat the price. The location is also excellent, in walking distance to a lot of shops, restaurants, and bars. I would definitely stay there in the future if I were passing through Stowe.
