New England fall tour

Awesome facility! 2 BR, 1 bath with a common area worked well. Will definitely stay here when we return to this area.

We spent two weeks traveling New England. Focusing on VT, Maine & RI. 5 days were spent at the Mad River Lodge. Although all the places we stayed were all very nice - none of them left us with the feeling of home away from home like MRL did. The main lobby and opportunity to meet other travellers was very enjoyable. The whole place felt peaceful and homey and would absolutely stay there again.

Leaf peeping

We were there for leaf peeping. It's a great location and a beautiful view of the mountain from the front porch

We really enjoyed our stay here. Very quiet and clean with sweet & helpful staff members. Only complaint is that the bedrooms get a little warm as the AC is just in the living room and not in the bedrooms. Overall great stay!

The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. We had originally booked a stay somewhere else, and were very disappointed when we got there. We ended up leaving the place we originally booked, and so thankful that we found Mad River Lodge to turn around our weekend getaway. We would absolutely recommend and return in the future.

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.
