Great little lodge minutes from Waitsfield

Nice lodge just minutes from Waitsfield dining. Beautiful view towards mountain. One thing I’ll note: the layout with a front deck, and an internal lobby that rooms on the 2nd and 3rd floors open onto, is ideal for visiting with friends and family. I was staying here on business so the late night conversations in the public areas kept me up. Not complaining! Just a heads-up about what to expect. If you stay on the first floor in rooms that open directly to parking area this shouldn’t be an issue.
