About this property
Where crisp air meets cozy nights—your Vermont fall escape awaits.
The Skylight Ski Lodge is the perfect destination for winter and summer sports! Situated just off VT-Route 30 outside Manchester, VT , your stay will be within 35 minutes of multiple ski mountains including Stratton, Bromley, and Okemo just to name a few. If you want to head a little further north, Killington is only a short hour away! If you love to snowmobile in the winter, the Lodge is on the VAST trail system and surrounded by the Green Mountains. When you are ready to head in for the day, 2 great rooms with large stone fireplaces and a gourmet kitchen will be ready for you to relax and refuel! Once the pond freezes over, gather friends and family to go ice skating or play a friendly game of ice hockey! Skylight Ski Lodge is perfect for getting the whole gang together! We look forward to welcoming you to our home. Your Vermont memories are waiting…

Located in Winhall, this chalet is in a rural area and on the waterfront. Stratton Mountain Resort and Bromley Mountain Ski Resort are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's natural beauty can explore Equinox Preservation Trust and Emerald Lake State Park. Travelling with kids? Consider Bromley Alpine Slide and Vermont Summer Festival. Make sure you get close to the area's animals with activities such as game walks and birdwatching.

About the host
Hosted by Rich & Erin DeRafelo; Marc & Bridget Hodakowski

Skylight Ski Lodge was built in 1950 and was run as an Inn from 1952-2002. In its heyday, Ski Magazine, February 1977 Issue, said: "most of the serious skiers who frequent the Skylight Lodge wouldn't think of staying anywhere else." In 2004, the Funk family purchased the lodge. They totally renovated it with every amenity you could wish for, done in excellent taste. Two great rooms with massive native stone, wood-burning fireplaces. Maple trees on the property were milled and used for trim and maple floors throughout the home.
In 2022, our gang happily stumbled upon the property. Bridget, Erin and Rich have been friends since college. Through Bridget, Marc joined the friendship. We have stood up at each other weddings and have remained close for over 20+ years. Coming out of the pandemic, our two families knew we wanted to spend MORE time together and found ourselves in the hunt for the perfect place. Skylight SKi Lodge is just that place. Our five children between us love to spend time running the halls, exploring the property outdoors and look forward to the beautiful winters skiing together on Stratton, Bromley and Okemo.
