Location: Killington, Vermont, USA (Bear Mountain next to Sunrise Mountain Village and lift)
Accommodations: Condominium, 3 Bedrooms + Other (See Description), 3 Baths (Sleeps 3-6)
This Ski -on, Ski-off 3 bedroom 3 bathroom condo is our pride and joy! Completed November 2005. 'The Lodges' are regarded as one of the most prestigious developments in the Killington area and offer top quality accomodation and priviliged apres ski facilities for the discerning skier.
The location of The Lodges affords the luxury of a genuine ski-on/ski-off experience. Be first to the top of the mountain! You are just steps from the Sunrise Lift. Our unit is approximately 300' from the lift across a level area. Although you could ski across it's quicker to walk across than ski because of the flat ground at this point.
ONE OF THE BIG ADVANTAGES OF STAYING AT 'THE LODGES' IS IT'S LOCATION. BEING PART OF THE SUNRISE COMMUNITY IT IS RIGHT NEXT TO THE SUNRISE CENTER AND LIFT. MORE IMPORTANTLY, YOU ARE ABLE TO USE THIS LIFT WITHOUT A LIFT PASS. THIS IS POTENTIALLY A BIG PLUS FOR NEW SKIERS AS IT MEANS YOU COULD PRACTICE YOUR SKILLS ON THIS SLOPE WITHOUT PAYING FOR A FULL MOUNTAIN PASS. YOU ARE RESTRICTED TO SKIING BACK DOWN 'BEARVIEW' THEN 'SUNDOG' OR 'RENDEZVOUS' BUT YOU DON'T NEED A LIFT PASS FOR THIS. (SEE THE KILLINGTON TRAIL MAP FOR DETAILS)THESE ARE GENTLE RUNS AND IDEAL FOR NEW SKIERS AND NOVICES WANTING TO GAIN CONFIDENCE.
AFTER ALL, NOVICE SKIERS WILL BE PAYING FULL PRICE FOR A COMPREHENSIVE PASS ACCESSING ALL OF THE MOUNTAIN BUT THEY MAY, FOR A FEW DAYS AT LEAST, SEE ONLY NURSERY SLOPES - AND POSSIBLY CROWDED ONES AT THAT. MY VIEW IS THAT IT'S WORTH CONSIDERING PAYING FOR PRIVATE TUITION AND USING ONLY THE SUNRISE VILLAGE TRIPLE LIFT FOR YOUR FIRST FEW LESSONS --- BIG POTENTIAL SAVINGS!!
Sunrise Mountain Village also offers an awesome array of hiking, snowshoeing, and skiing exploration from right outside your door. For 2008 there has even been sleigh rides on offer.
Forget frozen or muddy gridlocked car parking lots and massive lines of skiers trying to get onto the mountain - get there first and ski right home at the end of the day! You can ski right up to your door! (subject to snow conditions and car parking lot condition)
Interior Comforts
There has been no expense spared in making this a truly executive unit. The large living room area features an imported 'L' shaped leather sofa and we have installed a 42 inch plasma cable TV, with DVD and Hi-Fi. We have now added full WiFi facilities.
Each of the bedrooms has an imported Italian King size bed (Cal King) and each bedroom also has its own luxury bathroom. We have also supplied two fold-away beds. We have also supplied each of the three bedrooms with flat screen TV's.
The gourmet kitchen in this unit features a designer stainless steel appliance package, cherry cabinets, granite counter tops and slate floors.
These are trully top-end, $1/2 Million + units and take some beating for executive quality
This unit is really superb and is located next to the Sunrise Chair Lift and Sports Center, providing you with the owner privileges that you deserve. (We provide you with exclusive swipe-cards for privileged access)
At the end of a busy day on the slopes enjoy the large indoor pool (very warm in winter!!), the hot tub, the steam room, the sauna, the well equipped gymnasium. You can even pick up a light meal at the restaurant (Seasonal- Noel's)Open 11am to 300pm for lunches and additionally on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings for dinner.
This condo is ideal for three couples as there are very few 3- bed, 3- bath units and even fewer with such a spectacular location and with these facilities on offer. Ski-on ski-off and avoid the crowds!
Summer in Killington
Just because the snow has melted and the skiers have gone home, it doesn't mean the Killington Region shuts down, in fact it comes alive. When the green grass begins to sprout, the air gets a little warmer, and the days get a little longer, thoughts turn to the great outdoors, summer activities, and unforgettable Vermont vacation experiences. With flowing streams, hidden waterfalls, secluded lakes, quaint villages, breathtaking views, covered bridges, green hills and cool breezes, the summer seems endless.
The Killington Region has many unique areas to hike and explore, with trails for all ages and levels. If you prefer biking you can tour the region along country roads, scenic Route 100, or ride Killington's mountain trails.
Experience a fly fishing adventure in the heart of the Green Mountains. Play a relaxing round of golf at nearby Killington golf course, or take a cool swim in our outdoor sparkling pool. Go for a swim in one of the many lakes and rivers located nearby. There are a few world class rivers which offer some of the best fly fishing rivers in the entire northeast. Native Eastern Brook Trout are in the smaller streams of the Killington area, and huge rainbow and native brown trout await in the Vermont rivers such as the White and Ottaquechee Rivers.
The Lodges is available year round and we offer excellent rates for longer term summer packages.
