This lodge is more of a motel, really, but the location is great - right on Route 100 and just a few minutes from the main entrance to Mt. Snow. The rooms were an excellent value, especially with the a la carte breakfast which was included. Our room was clean, and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom had recently been... More

Thank you very much for your review we do appreciate you taking the time to do so. There is just one thing and that is that we do in fact have wifi throughout most of the the lodge (the signal is weak at the extremities of the building) but it is password protected. This was introduced due to the amount... More

Just returned from a fabulous week's skiing at Mount Snow, and really enjoyed our stay at the Big Bear's Lodge. Caroline & Steve were really super hosts - they worked really hard to make our holiday enjoyable. They were brilliantly patient with our children, and helped us with a range of things (e.g. dinner reservation changes, problems with our ski... More

Jeeez people had me really nervous when I made this reservation. You seriously have to take these reviews with more than a grain of salt. I stayed at this place its about 300 yard from the entrance to Mount Snow, literally. Its also close to the Snow Barn where there is live entertainment in the evening. I stayed in room... More

An excellant place to stay when visiting southern Vermont. Very clean and friendly owners who will go the extra mile for you. An excellant breakfast is available. The rooms are a little dated, and dark, but other wise a very good place to stay.

Very clean, hosts were very nice, they have a cool dog. Breakfast - great raspberry / blueberry pancakes and good selection of toast / juices Wanted to stay as close to mount snow as possible - big bears lodge was a great value and is extremely close to the mountain. Great being on Route 100 - there are a few... More

My husband and I were looking for a reasonable hotel to stay in close to the Mt. Snow ski area and were pleasantly surprised by our stay at The Big Bear Lodge. The rooms aren't fancy but are clean and comfortable. The hotel is located practically across the street from the first entrance to Mt. Snow so it was very... More

My Husband and I just returned from a 2 night mid-week stay at Big Bear. The rooms were very clean, the breakfast was good and the location was perfect for skiing at Mt. Snow. The Price was very affordable. I would defiantly recommend this place to others.

Our hosts, Steven, Caroline & Shelly were wonderful. They couldn't do enough for you. They made you feel very comfortable and welcome. The Lodge was immaculate and the meals were fantastic. They have lots of common areas to relax in. Internet service was very fast. I can't think of anything they could improve on! Sincerely, Barbara McLaughlin
