Property was clean. Room was very small. I would have given it a higher rating but the noise level from the other hotel guests was very loud coming from the other rooms.
Unique building in an outdoor area. 3 stories with elevator between 1&2. Third (for 3 rooms) only reached via stairs. Nice common area with coffee, tea, microwave and snacks for purchase. Our room under the eves was comfortable once we were told about heating thermostat. Innkeeper very friendly and accommodating.
The lodge is an old house on a hill, quite far from downtown and shopping areas. The facilities upstairs are decent, and the coin-operated washer and dryer are convenient. However, the bedrooms are close to each other and the living room, making privacy and quiet time difficult.
John, the staff member in charge, was unfriendly and unpleasant to deal with. I sometimes felt his attitude toward Asian guests was dismissive.
Overall, the location, limited privacy, and service experience made the stay less enjoyable.
Cant say enough amazing things about my stay at Mad River Lodge! The inn-keeper Dana was so kind and gave ideas for activities in the area and helped me get to my wedding when we had no ideas on how to get there. The whole experience was so personable, and I loved the shared space with a chess board, games, tea, and coffee!
Absolutely beautiful place, our room was super cozy and the main common space for all visitors was amazing, lots of board games avalible too. Definitely would stay here again!
We Loved our stay here, the staff was so friendly.

Room was good and sooo warm when we arrived, on a snowy cold Vermont afternoon. Plenty of space for our family of four.
Innkeeper was prompt with coffee in the morning.
Great spot well run , clean and great location near ski mountains

Great Lodge. Provided everything we needed. Quiet, family friendly. Good game selection. Ton of snacks and coffee. Super close to Mt. Ellen. Definitely would come back.
Nice to go to a room at the end of a long drive and have the room be clean. It was great for what we were looking for - just a place to rest our heads while we went visiting family in Vermont.
Great little lodge---convenient location relative to Mad River Glen and Sugarbush. Room was clean and cozy, and the check-in/check-out process worked flawlessly.
