Join us for a one-night accommodation, accompanied by a 1-day lift ticket in the heart of the green mountain state for $109 per person, per day. With an average snowfall of 333” Stowe is the perfect destination to get away for a night.

While visiting make sure to ask about our apartments for your next stay!

The British are Coming!

             Stowe is being invaded – and we think you will like it. For three days, September 14 – 16, Stowe hosts the British Invasion featuring collections of motorcars such as Bentleys, MGs, Rolls Royces, Jaguars and more. These cars alone are a thing of beauty and with Stowe’s picturesque fall foliage as the backdrop it is a sight to behold. Be sure to be here during this invasion and check it out. See the cars at the show or touring the streets of Stowe.  This is a competition, so be sure to pick your favorite. Cheers!

Corn Maze Craze!

       There is no better place to get lost in Stowe than in Percy Farm’s corn maze. Put it on top of your things-to-do in Stowe this fall. Located on the Stowe Recreation Path, the peaceful setting may make you want to stay for hours, but the maze usually takes about one hour to complete. Don’t worry, you can’t get too lost, there is a logbook and the staff there will be sure to keep track of you. At the entrance to the maze there are two baby calves to pet, a big hit with children. So bring your kids, and even your dog (on a leash) and discover a maze Stowe-style.

Take a Ride Into Foliage!

       

       As the Sun sets a little earlier and the birdsong begin to quiet, anyone visiting Vermont knows the beautiful foliage season is right around the corner! The Sugar Maples are in full “bloom”. The beautiful scarlet and gold leaves glow high above the green valleys of grass, while bright orange pumpkins line the streets of town. Stowe blossoms with true autumn spirit and welcomes all visitors to come enjoy the natural beauty of Vermont during foliage.

Hiking In Stowe

        Stowe is a mecca for outdoor activity! From climbing Vermont’s tallest peak, Mount Mansfield, to hiking “The Pinnacle” and reaching its amazing view, to walking the 5.3 mile long Stowe Recreation Path winding throughout the town, crossing over rivers, and passing many of Stowe’s landmarks, you will never be bored outdoors. You can always spend your day winding down the dirt path that traverses meadows throughout the town, known to the locals as “The Quiet Path,” or head towards Cotton Brook, a swimming hole in the southern part of town. Here you’ll find the Little River (Moscow River) and plenty of walking and hiking trails scattered through the woods, all leading to the Waterbury Reservoir, home to kayaks, canoes, and picnics.

        Stowe is home to both beginner and advanced hikes, ranging from .5 miles to 9 miles long. For an easy nature hike be sure to check out Moss Glen Falls, which leads to a stunning waterfall at the end. Sunset Rock is another short and easy hike with great views overlooking Main St. in downtown Stowe. More advanced hikers will enjoy the landscape views from the peak of Stowe Pinnacle and Mount Mansfield. And for those looking for a challenge, the “Hellbrook Trail” is one of the toughest in the area and is a definite if you want to encounter one of the most spectacular views in New England once you reach the summit! For a complete list of trails and locations, stop by the front desk and ask for the Stowe Hiking Guide.

Tasty New 'Snack's at The Whip Bar & Grill

Recently named Executive Chef, Cody Vasek, is winning over our guests with his fresh spin on comfort food. Vasek has touched upon all aspects of our menu, beginning with some tasty new 'snacks' and sides offered at The Whip Bar & Grill.

Vinegar Chips: 
Made from PEI potatoes soaked over night to absorb flavor, deep fried in canola oil and finished with diamond crystal kosher salt… 
This new addition has been quite popular among guests and locals. A smooth 'crunch' ends in a blissful vinegar taste, making this the perfect snack to pair with a beer on draft. Also comes as a side with The Whip Burger and Shake.

Petite Vanilla Milkshake: Made with parsnips, fresh vanilla bean, local Vermont cream and sugar... 
Enjoyed alone or with The Whip Burger and Shake. Petite in size, yet full of flavor – diners can’t get enough!

Rosemary Popcorn: Fresh kernels, rosemary, equinox cheese (a local parmesan made in Vermont), butter and sea salt...
 Munched on as a snack at the bar!

Hungry? Visit us and taste Vasek's menu additions for yourself! The Whip Bar & Grill is open daily, click here for restaurant hours.
