A wide, snowy ski trail in southern Vermont

The Area

We sit on Route 100, the road that strings together southern Vermont's best mountains, villages, and views.

Winter

Two mountains, one cottage

West Wardsboro sits right between Stratton and Mount Snow, so you can pick your mountain by the day's conditions and be on a lift within an easy drive.

Stratton Mountain

The classic

Southern Vermont's biggest vertical, a walkable base village, and terrain for every level. Great dining and shopping when the legs give out.

Mount Snow

The one that named us

Home of the Bluebird Express, the bubble lift our cottage is named after. Even the barns have bluebirds. Wide cruisers, a legendary terrain park, and a family-first feel.

Spring, Summer & Fall

Green mountains, swimming holes, and foliage season

When the snow melts, this valley turns into a different kind of playground: hiking and mountain biking on both mountains, swimming holes along the West River, scenic chairlift rides, and farm stands all along Route 100.

Come late September, you are sitting in the middle of some of the best leaf-peeping in New England. The front porch has the best seat.
