After a long day of winter fun, come get warm and cozy in front of the fire at Rustic Buck Ridge Lodge! Located 2 miles from the base of Mount Snow in the Green Mountains, Buck Ridge Lodge is a throwback to the “golden age” of skiing. Rustic yet comfortable, the lodge is perfect for budget conscious and community minded folks who want to be close to all the winter action and adventure the Southern VT area affords.
Built in the 1940s as a 1 room cabin (complete with outhouse, open hearth, and spring on the property), the Lodge has been updated over the years thanks to the dedication of community volunteers - handcrafted furniture, artwork, and stonework all contribute to the rustic ambiance.
Minutes from the base of Mount Snow, skiing/boarding opportunities abound on the slopes, or at a nearby XC Ski Center. Sledding, ice skating, and tubing are all within 10-15 minutes drive. Great dining and drinking options can be found in the towns of Dover/West Dover (5-10 minute drive) and Wilmington (15 minute drive). Many local markets are close by for grocery shopping, and a laundromat and Shaws Market can be found in Wilmington for your laundry/grocery needs. Centrally located to other mountain resorts (Okemo, Bromley/Magic, Stratton, Killington), opportunities for skiing/boarding are endless. Our guests will appreciate having a warm, comfy place to shower, make a meal, rest, and enjoy the fire after a long day on the slopes.
Other adventurous, cultural pursuits found within an hour include: North Adams and Mass MoCA, historic Brattleboro (awesome concert venue here!), great shopping (Outlets in Manchester), and so much more.
NOTE: this is a shared, community space, with the lodge manager living on-site. Expect hostel style shared accommodations in a charming lodge built in the 1940s. Single/twin bunk beds are offered (bring pillows/sleeping bags), and a King size platform bed may be available (though not promised or guaranteed). There is a fully equipped, communal kitchen (pots, pans, crock and instant pots, etc.), 3 private bathrooms, 2 private shower stalls, 1 large communal dining table and 1 smaller communal breakfast area, and a shared living room with stone fireplace. An equipment room and cubbies are available to store your gear. There is a fire pit outside (bring your own wood). As Lodge accommodations are rustic and shared, we ask that only responsible, community-minded guests over 25 years of age consider staying with us. You are welcome to add one additional guest (provide photo ID) at the same rate at checkout.
