Early March 2024
My family and I had a great stay at the Skylight Lodge. It is very different from other rentals, being a former inn. There is plenty of space for a big group and the two master suites are great. The fireplace in the main room is like something out of game of thrones, and was the highlight of the trip for the adults. The kids spent most of the time playing games in the second living room on the first floor. The house is also very conveniently located near Manchester. We would definitely come back.

Comfy family ski lodge
Loved our stay at the lodge. Perfect for five families with children of varying ages. Roomy, clean, amenities galore. We enjoyed the spacious kitchen and great room with fireplace. Hosts were super-communicative.

The perfect ski trip getaway
My group of friends has been taking an annual ski trip in Vermont for over a decade now. We're tried a few different properties and the Skylight Ski Lodge instantly vaulted to the top of our list. The location is incredibly convenient, the layout is perfect, and the vibes are charming. The hosts advertise things exactly as they are and communicate clearly!

Beautiful Home!
The house and surrounding area was beautiful, clean and well-maintained. They provided toiletries and other nice extras. The kitchen was spacious and there were so many places for a large family to gather both inside and outside. The owners were helpful and responsive. If we come to this area again, we will definitely stay at this house. Was a perfect weekend!

Great stay
This house was a terrific place for our family and friends to stay during our annual ski week in VT. The location to the slopes was great--so close to Bromley and Stratton! Easy access to the main roads. The house was fully stocked and clean. There was plenty of room for multiple families to share. Communication with the owner was always prompt and helpful. We can't wait to return!

Love Skylight!!
This is our fourth time at Skylight with a group of families we ho on an annual ski trip. We love the house and it’s proximity to Bromley. The hangout areas are awesome and the bedrooms are well thought out with different combinations of beds—bunks, fulls, queens, kings—to accommodate everyone. The property owner was really attentive and replied immediately. We look forward to returning to Skylight.

Perfect in every way!
My family and I stayed at the Skylight Ski Lodge for Christmas 2022 in hopes to escape the craziness of the season and enjoy our children and each others company. We will now have memories to last a lifetime. Throughout the booking process, I was in touch with Erin who quickly responded to any questions or concerns I had, which was so very appreciated. When we arrived at the Lodge, I was taken back by its beauty, as the pictures do not do the actual feel of this home any justice. It was perfect in every way and most importantly, in my opinion when booking a home, it was immaculate!!! There were 8 adults and 7 children (including a 9 month old baby) and there were more than enough bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate us. Beautifully decorated with no detail overlooked, and beds that were more comfortable than my own. Each room had a lot of closet space which was wonderful as we lugged our Christmas gifts from Santa and needed a place to store them until the big day. We had 2 young teenagers who claimed the loft where there were 2 twin beds and gave them space to hangout and make memories. It was adorable. The bathrooms were gorgeous- each with towels, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. My bathroom had a steam shower which we loved after a day out in the snow and dry air. There were razors and toothbrushes in a basket in case these items were forgotten as they often are. There was a pack and play and monitor for the baby which really came in handy. My personal favorite part of this home was the kitchen where there was a huge Viking stove. We came with food to cook for Christmas Eve and Day and we were surprised to find spices we had forgotten. A well-laid out space with a pantry off to its side with shelves and an extra refrigerator. We cooked and ate and laughed until we cried. We gathered in a large family room after dinner where we played games and laughed some more by the fireplace. There was also a living room with a television where the kids often drifted off and gave us adult time alone. The last night there, we were lucky to find that the pond in the yard was frozen. The kids skated with a beautiful pink sunset sky behind them. Truly picture perfect. The location is wonderful, close to Manchester Center where we shopped and had lunch a few days. It was so close to Stratton Mountain where we took the kids tubing. I am certain you will be more than happy with your stay here. Thank you, Erin and Rich, for sharing your home with us.
