Sugarbush Resort

Sugarbush Resort is located in the historic Mad River Valley of Vermont. With two mountains, sixteen lifts, one hundred and eleven trails, three terrain parks, and the 2,000-acre Slide Brook Basin, there is no question that Sugarbush is one of New England’s largest ski areas. Amenities include multiple base lodges, equipment rentals, ski/ride instruction, lodging, restaurants, and retail.

Sugarbush has a wide variety of terrain and really fun trails. There’s a reason so many locals come here! Whether you are on Sugarbush’s Lincoln Peak or Mount Ellen, you will find fun trails and there’s even a lift connecting the two which can make for a lot of ground to cover when you’re here! They also seem to get a ton of snow here, so the conditions are often excellent.

Mad River Glen

Popular Vermont ski area and New England's best ski buy.

Reviewed By JohnnieTraveller - Boston, United States

This is the real thing! No corporate crap or pretense. This is a skiers only area frequented by purists. From the first arrival, to the unassuming parking lot, the modest lodge and the iconic ‘single chair’, this mountain is different from the pack. A refreshing change from the crush of bigger collective-owners and their need for more ticket sales, and thus more skiers. The terrain is not for beginners, and is more reminiscent of Rocky Mountain steeps and trees. A wonderful Mecca for every skier. Enjoy

Vermont Icelandic Horse Farm

Reviewed By mcgregpub

I cant say enough about what a wonderful experience my husband and I had this morning. While the weather did not cooperate, the ride was still magnificent. These are truly wonderful animals cared for by a great team of people and the ride could not have been more enjoyable, rain and all. I only wish we had the opportunity for a longer ride. A don't miss stop on your travels through Vermont.

Reviewed By DW177 - Wilkes-Barre, United States

We skied here on a nice day in March. They have many miles of trails with a good variety of rolling terrain in fields and in the woods. The "lodge" is in the control tower of a small airport. There is a ski rental shop and warming room. You can bring your lunch. The trails were nicely groomed and we really enjoyed it.
