About this property

Dog-friendly chalet + hot tub, EV charger

After having a fun day outdoors, relax in the hot tub or chill in the great room with seasonal views of Sugarloaf Mountain while the kids have a blast in the downstairs game room! This contemporary ski lodge is perfect for groups or families, especially those with pets. Well-equipped kitchen is perfect for family and group dinners - more fun and less expensive than eating at a restaurant.

In winter, Sugarloaf mountain is 10 minutes away - some of New England's best skiing. The Sugarloaf Outdoor Center has 30 miles / 55 km of maintained, groomed country / snowshoeing trails, and outdoor ice rink. Heated mud room and boot dryers ensure that your equipment is always warm and ready. And if you have an EV, you can recharge on our Level 2 charger (provides 40 A) and take a break from range anxiety.

In spring/summer/fall, enjoy miles of hiking and mountain biking trails, golf (at the beautiful, Robert Trent Jones designed Sugarloaf Golf Club) and frisbee golf (starts near base lodge, is a nice hike too). Relax on the spacious deck or enjoy a fire at the fire pit while grilling dinner on the deck.

Best rental yet! I stayed with my husband and 4 close friends for the weekend of my birthday. The property was amazing.

Fantastic Ski Weekend with Family and Friends

I stayed at Loafer's Lodge with my family and close family friends (4 adults, 5 kids total) for a long weekend of skiing at Sugarloaf. We had a fantastic stay. The house was in great condition (seemed brand new) and had everything we needed. The rooms were good sized and well organized for larger groups with kids including a room with bunk beds and playroom downstairs. All three bathrooms were also good sized and nicely finished. The kitchen had all the plates/bowls/glasses and cooking utensils we needed. The location was also great, just 15 minutes away from the Sugarloaf base lodge, and a spectacular view of the mountain out the front windows. We would love to go back!

Ski Getaway

From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning views of Sugarloaf from the main floor. The house itself was cozy, comfortable and extremely well-equipped. We were impressed with the attention to detail and the thought that had been put into making our stay as comfortable as possible. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals, and the living room with its warm fireplace was the perfect place to relax. One of the highlights of our stay was the outdoor hot tub, which was the perfect way to unwind after a long day on the slopes. We also appreciated the fact that there were plenty of towels and linens available, so we never had to worry about running out. The location of the house was perfect - just a short drive from Sugarloaf and with nearby restaurants. We loved the convenience of being so close to everything, yet still feeling like we were in a secluded mountain paradise. Overall, I would highly recommend this ski house to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-equipped and beautifully located home away from home.

Luxurious Loafer’s Lodge

Loafer’s Lodge was everything as described but better! Well-appointed with all the creature comforts of home made our family feel welcome. The mudroom is spacious, heated & included boot/glove dryers so our gear was dry & ready every morning as we headed out the door to the slopes. The open floorplan including the living/dining/kitchen area is terrific for a large crowd or intimate family gatherings with views of the trails at Sugarloaf! We are a family of 6 adults and there was ample spaces to spread out, relax & enjoy endless streaming services on the oversized flatscreen above the gas fireplace. The well-stocked kitchen accommodates two or more cooks, is well-equipped for meal prep with all kinds of utensils, pans, flat top grill & the waffle maker was a huge hit with our crowd! 4 spacious bedrooms with plenty of closet/storage areas and new cushy carpet under foot. Our only negative was the primary bed is small & not supportive enough. The remaining beds were super comfy and there were plenty of pillows & blankets to go around. The hot tub was a very welcome respite after a long day on the slopes. The house was immaculate. We would definitely stay here again. The owners were very communicative & without delay. We highly recommend Loafer's Lodge for a ski trip or a peaceful summer/fall getaway in the mountains.

About the host

Hosted by Gregory LeGore

Host profile image
Greg, Joanna, and their son Alex own Loafer's Lodge together because they love the Carrabassett Valley, particularly in wintertime. All of us are avid skiers and love to be on the slopes of Sugarloaf, particularly the Narrow Guage trail for Alex because it is the perfect trail to lay down arcs as a former ski racer. When not skiing, we love the serenity of snowshoeing through the forest after a fresh snowfall (perfect for wind-hold days).

Why they chose this property

Sugarloaf is our favorite place to ski in the east! When we saw Loafers' Lodge, we knew it was the perfect place to make family memories for generations to come. The hot tub is a huge bonus after a hard day on the mountain. We have great views of the mountain while still feeling like a private setting.

What makes this property unique

You'll love watching the lights of the groomers preparing for your next day on the mountain as you relax in the hot tub.
