vtboarder Posted November 14, 2006 Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 I'm planning on a Killington trip mid January with a couple of buds. Looking for opinions on where to stay. Prefer to be able to walk to the lifts. Any ideas? You could try the Mountain Inn...you can walk to the lifts at Rams Head from there, and their prices aren't too bad. http://www.mtinn.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vtboarder Posted November 14, 2006 Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 I just booked the Inn of the Six Mountains for 02/06-09/07. That place is awesome. I stayed there for a weekend last year. The free breakfast in the morning is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schif Posted November 14, 2006 Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 I've only stayed at the Pinnacle. Pretty nice condos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDSCHMOO22 Posted November 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 I've only stayed at the Pinnacle. Pretty nice condos. Any ideas on where to stay further in town, we'll have some people with who won't be on the mountain- poor souls- but would there be someplace closer to the restaurants and shopping that we could drive to the lifts? I haven't been up there is a couple of years so this is all new to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexkitten Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 6 Mts. was crazy expensive and kind of a glorified HoJo's but what can you do. We don't want to have to drive to the Mt. everyday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcleary47 Posted November 16, 2006 Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 if you stay any wher on the access road i think there is a shuttle that will stop any where and take you. i always hitchiked. people are really friendly. if they see you with your skis or boards they will usually give a lift. i like the inn of the six because of the grub. any where will be expensive. there isn;t too much shopping i think for people to do. altough everyone knows that no trip to killington is not complete without a stop at the DarkSide board shop.

Justin Posted November 16, 2006 Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 I plan on driving there one weekend and staying at a random/cheap/ghetto hotel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillycore Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 North Star lodge is a nice place and right on Killington Drive. 100 degree pool after a long day on the slopes kicks A too.. Wobbly Barn is a must!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cameltoe Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 Definately stay on the access road.....Rutland Sucks....Went last year and stayed off rt.7,it was horrible driving 20+ minutes in the snow to get there. Theres also nothing to do in town....it blows. We ended taking a cab up to the access road($50 each way) to go to the bars. Vt police are all over the place.DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE up there.

Schif Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 Vt police are all over the place.DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE up there. If movies have taught me anything its that you don't really have to worry about the cops on VT's roads..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 Whats the cheapest hotel around there? Like 20-30 minutes from the lifts. I'm gonna head up some random weekends in Feburary, March, and for like a week over spring break....while everybody heads to cancun....i'll be skiing that is depending on whether or not I take a CO trip over spring break Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 Check out my report from Killington...I stayed at the Travel Inn for 45 bucks a night plus tax...It's on the east side of Rutland and it's a nice drive to the mountain. Near a Mickey D's and grocery stores..I could have probably saved a few bucks on the room but it's tough to haggle when the price is so low to begin with. Once you hit the mountain road..everything is 100+ per night..and you're too young to be boozin it up anyway.. Yea, well legally that is... Pretty much I'm going to ski my ass off then just have a place to crash and get a shower...eat some hungry man dinners too. I'll might be heading up with one or two people max, maybe just even myself...trying to keep it as cheap as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
