Mountain Top Resort

This is the worst place I have ever been in my entire life. It’s in the middle of nowhere. No cell service. Sledding was ice covered and injured several children. Way too pricey for what is offered. One house on the property is beautiful, updated and clean. The other houses that has 5 beds and 4 bathrooms was not even clean. Dusty like it has been sitting for months. Ketchup or something stuck to the sink handle and dead bugs everywhere. A random persons hair clumped and stuck to the bathroom wall. They definitely have a water leak and mold everywhere. The rooms do not have basic bedding or window treatments. We moved to a different hotel and cut our losses because I was scared for my family and children. We will never recommend. I wasn’t able to upload the other photos.

The good: the place and setting are very pretty. They supply plastic sleds for the sledding hill. The bad: be forewarned that if you get a lower room, you will have to lug your bags up and down a very narrow staircase. My teen daughter fell and hurt her hand. The room is fine, but there were two nights during our stay that we didn't have hot water to shower until around 10 pm. There is no coffee in the rooms. If you want some, you have to go all the way to the dining area, and they pack it up after 10:30 am. We found the breakfast to be sub par, which was a pain, because then we had to drive all the way into town every day. They charge $400 for a sleigh ride, which we thought ludicrous. The ugly: So, when I booked this trip I specifically asked if food was available on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. The front desk assured me that there was food. On Christmas Day at 6 pm, we went downstairs to eat and were told that there was no way we could be seated, the restaurant was too full. (!) I was horrified. We were never told that we needed a reservation. We went back to our rooms and had cheese and crackers for dinner. I really hate writing bad reviews, but my hope is that the owners will read this and make some changes. It's a far way to go to be disappointed.

I recently stayed at the Mountain Top Resort in Vermont and while the property clearly aspires to offer an upscale experience, several basic amenities and design choices fell short of expectations—especially considering the premium rates. To start, the absence of a coffee maker in the room was surprising. Most hotels today offer either in-room coffee or a communal coffee and tea station, but neither was available here. For a resort aiming at luxury, this felt like a miss. My corner room on the first floor lacked a thermostat, which meant I had to manually adjust the temperature by opening windows—an awkward task given that a couch blocked access to them. The closet had no door, which might have been quirky if not for the refrigerator inside it. The fridge emitted a bright blue temperature light that lit up the room like a laser when the lights were off, making sleep difficult. To make matters worse, the closet had a motion-activated light that turned on when I walked by at night, nearly blinding me. Space was another issue. The bathroom had no counter space for a toiletry bag, and the dresser top was completely dominated by the TV, leaving nowhere to place personal items. These design choices made the room feel cramped and impractical. I was here for a business meeting, and unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend this resort for business travelers. It’s not set up for work-related stays and lacks the functionality and comfort needed for a productive visit. While some of these issues might seem humorous in hindsight, they made my stay uncomfortable. For the price point, I expected much better.

We stayed in one of the houses on the resort. It was a beautiful place. Our own private pool, hot tub, 5 bedrooms each with their own bathroom, 2 big family rooms,dining room, big kitchen, screened in porch and amazing scenery. Would recommend it to everyone!

We stayed in cloud 9 and loved it. Perfect for our small family. The food at the resort was great. The pontoon boat ride was nice. We enjoyed going to Killington for a day. O my wish the outdoor pool was heated!!
