    This place is absolutely fabulous. Not only is the decor phenomenal but the front desk ladies rock. One of them helped us carry our bags to the room. They made great restaurant recs and the included breakfast was more than I expected. Rooms are super cute and clean.

    We got this nice lodge right on Mountain Rd, very close to downtown Stowe and not far of a drive to many of the restaurants and attractions. The whole check in is contactless and very efficient. The lobby has a beautiful sitting area and an ample breakfast area (during the pandemic you pick a to-go bag with food enough for 2). The room had a nice balcony and very nice and clean bathroom. It's a nice comfortable place to stay with a nice hot tub and green areas to walk around. There are several restaurants and a strip mall just across the road, so it's very convenient. The Bench is right across and they have a large varied menu. The place is very charming and cozy. Free parking.

    As long as you aren't planning on using the fold-out bed (which was soooo thin and lumpy), you'll be in for a treat. The staff was some of the best we've encountered. The decor is nostalgic while being up to date. The Bar and Board room is a great place for a nightcap and a game. Our room was spacious, nicely decorated, and clean. The main bed was completely comfortable. Within walking distance of plenty of restaurants, bars, stores, and most importantly, the Stowe Recreation Path, which is beautiful.

    Overall, a VERY good experience. It's rainy/slow/mud season in VT, so both the hotel and the town were very dead. However, the architecture is designed for gathering in both peak summer and winter seasons. There are lots of places to enjoy the outdoors (fireplaces, pavilions, etc). The breakfast was different each day and always matched the vibe of the hotel (quiche, croissants, fruit, yogurt, etc.). There is a really nice attention to detail in both the amenities (iPads in the room, Apple TV, digital cable, cookies on arrival, neck rests in bed, bar area design) and the decor (lodge themed). Additionally, there is beer and wine for sale. All very nice and reasons I would stay again. However, these are ways I think it could improve: - Smoking pavilion needed. Standing on the uneven gravel hill is not a vibe. - The staff is either lackluster or non existent. - If you're going to charge $75 for a bottle of champagne, upgrade the brand. - Most of the breakfast foods that are served need to be on ice, for food safety reasons. - Work with local restaurants to provide more delivery options or serve heavier food at your bar - Snack/drink menu is out of date. In summation, would go back during peak season.

    This was one of the best stays ever! We booked a room in the tree house and it was SO worth it. The room was decorated beautifully and it even had a bathtub with views of the mountains. Typically we stay down the road but decided to change things up a bit this trip and it was so worth it! Make sure to try the breakfast spread, you won't be disappointed!

    I stayed at Field Guide Lodge for a weekend recently and I had a wonderful experience. The staff is very attentive-from the time you check in you get text updates on your phone and if you need anything you can text the number and receive an almost immediately reply to your inquiry. The room itself was average-it had everything we needed. I had a king room and I will say if there's only one qualm I have I wish the room was big enough to fit a small table with 2 chairs. However, this is a design preference really and not too big of a deal. If I felt like I needed a bigger space, the beautiful lobby offered plenty of it. There's a outdoor patio area with picnic tables you can enjoy your breakfast at or just hang out and chat. There are also plenty of other places in the lobby to hang out and have great conversation. The pool area is really cute. I like how you can reserve a 30 minute time slot to use the hot tub, however, the location of the hot tub at the hotel wasn't my favorite. I'd prefer it to be near the pool so I chose not to use it, but that's just a personal preference. The location is great. There a lot of great places to dine, grab coffee, or a beer at a brewery just down the road. Town is also very close by if you'd like to grab a souvenir. The location was one of my favorite things about Field Guide Lodge. Finally, I must say the breakfast is superb. Probably the BEST thing about this hotel. The breakfast menu is so cute and well thought out and their presentation is everything...looked like a wedding cocktail hour spread. I appreciated their attentiveness and attention to detail. If you're looking at hotels in Stowe, Field Guide Lodge is worth the stay. It's very quintessential Stowe and I'll be back for sure!

    Really enjoyed our recent stay at Field Guide Lodge! We spent two nights and had a comfy room on the 2nd floor. The bed was very comfy and the TV could connect to Netflix or other streaming apps, which was great. We also had a big tub in our bathroom which was wonderful. Negatives would be that the shower was VERY small, and they didn't have the breakfast downstairs due to COVID. The bagged breakfast didn't contain anything we really wanted (an orange, a pastry, and some yogurt/oats), but this isn't really their fault because of the pandemic. It was somewhat of a long drive to Burlington and there was A LOT of traffic due to construction. Again, not the fault of the lodge; just something for you to know when booking. Overall, really enjoyed our experience and you can't beat it for the money!

    Comfy bed

    My thoughts echo most of the other reviewers: this place is beautiful, well maintained, and very well located in Stowe. I had a great stay here and really loved the rustic, cozy, but modern feel of the hotel. Although our time at Stowe was rainy, we found plenty of things to do in the hotel after we exhausted all the brewery options in town. I'm just going to do a brief recap because I don't want to repeat what everyone else says. Free continental breakfast, complementary iPad use during your stay, Apple TVs in rooms, hot tub, and my favorite, the chocolate chip cookies at the front desk. I should have hoarded more! A few things to note however: there's no elevator (thank goodness for my strong boyfriend who carried our giant luggage up the stairs), most rooms may be on the smaller side (but it feels cozy to me), and sometimes we could hear hallway noises. Not deal breakers to me. During our check-out, the lady at the front desk gave us a $30 off card to any other Lark hotel properties. I'll definitely have to check them out in the future if I ever travel up to the New England area again!

    Raining and gorgeous!

    See all

    Outstanding inn in Stowe, VT. So very glad we stayed here. Our room was very spacious and…read morecomfortable. The bed was ultra comfortable; pillows were awesome. The staff was warm and friendly. I only have one criticism. While the A/C was working, we had difficulty regulating it to feel comfortable. It was rather cold and clammy at night, but by morning, we felt fine. It wasn't so much the cold part that bothered me, but the clammy part was what got to me. Everyone kept saying how unseasonably hot and humid it was for Stowe, so who knows... maybe the A/C just had difficulty regulating itself... or we didn't know how to use it properly. It wasn't bad, per se, but it was a little uncomfortable some of the time. The room overall, though, was really great. Also, we loved that they had Netflix and Amazon Prime, so we could settle into the shows we were missing while traveling. That was a nice surprise ! Most hotels don't offer any of that. We had planned to dine out at one of the local restaurants, but we found out they were serving dinner at Grant's, the inn's restaurant. We were tired after traveling around all day, so we stayed at the inn and ate a great meal at Grant's. (See separate review for that.) Also, the common areas in the main building next to the restaurant are very tastefully appointed, spacious, with lots of games, books and sitting areas for people to utilize. We walked around them to see what there was but returned to our room to relax and watch some of our shows. My only regret was that we couldn't stay longer. One night in Stowe just isn't enough, especially at the Stowe Village Inn. Let's hope there will be a next time !

There was an unlocked door connecting to another room which felt really unsafe, especially since it was all women in our group.

I mentioned the unlocked door to the front desk and the guy brushed it off like it wasn't a big deal. We ended up switching rooms but the new one wasn't much better. The AC made a loud ticking noise and kept shutting off in the middle of the night. None of us slept well. The shower was awful. Barely any pressure and no consistent temperature. You'd honestly be better off showering in the rain. The next morning we went to grab breakfast and bought a few muffins. Every single one had green fuzzy mold on it. We got a refund but they left the rest of the moldy muffins in the fridge which was honestly really gross. Overall the place just felt unsafe and not properly maintained. The only thing we liked was the pool and hot tub but that alone is not enough to make me want to stay here again.

I stayed in the Double Queen bed, handicap accessible room. It was very spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable. I found that they didn't have a lot of functional things in the room. There weren't a lot of places to hang up towels. They didn't give the usual hotel toiletries like the shower caps, cotton swabs, makeup remover wipes, etc. They did have an electric kettle in the room and a little tray where they had some tea bags, hot coco packets, and an ice bucket. I couldn't find the other amenities from the other review like the noise machine. We only went to the main building to check in and check out, but I did see the hot coffee station and the gift shop. I didn't use either of these. I did, however, enjoy the complimentary smores one night when I had a sweet tooth. They put the kits out by the restaurant on site and there were two fire pits with a few chairs. I wish they had more, smaller fire pits so it could be a more private experience. (The people sitting at the fire pit didn't seem to appreciate when we asked if we could use the fire for smores.) The fire pits are also by an inground pool and a hot tub. The pool had signage that said it was closed, but they did not cover the pool. I'm not sure if the hot tub was open and I didn't see anyone use it during my stay. The WiFi was abysmal, which really was inconvenient because my boyfriend and I did not get great cell service for the entire trip. We were really relying on WiFi when we went to different businesses to plan things and make reservations. Because WiFi was not great at the hotel, some functions of the TV were unusable. These could be growing pains for the hotel if they are a newer business in Stowe, so hopefully they continue to grow and improve because the location is great and the foundation of a great hotel is definitely there!
