Stowe, Vermont
Home to the highest peak in Vermont, Stowe offers some of the best skiing in the East. Two Inspirato homes are located within The Lodge at Spruce Peak. Bring up to 12 guests to Sterling, a two-story home with a private balcony, cozy fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling windows. Or opt for three-bedroom Ridgeview, with an inviting living room and stone-framed fireplace. Both offer access to a heated outdoor swimming pool and spa. The Lodge at Spruce Peak offers Stowe's only ski-in, ski-out access.
Idyllic and Charming Vermont
Nestled in the heart of a fertile Vermont valley, Stowe rests between Mt. Mansfield State Forest and CC Putnam State Forest. In this idyllic location you'll find the red, white, and blue of America's treasured landscapes and small town traditions: general stores, colonial architecture, boutique shops, bed and breakfasts, and more. With shades of a Norman Rockwell sketch and snow globe features, this quaint town beckons travelers to view stunning foliage in the fall or race down its slopes in the winter. Stowe also hosts arts and crafts shows, balloon festivals, and a weekend long British Invasion event celebrating British automobiles and culture.
