Classic VT Ski Chalet - Walkable to Okemo Ski Lift w/Fit Pit & Pool Table

PLEASE NOTE: No Saturday arrivals or departures, no pets, no parties
Recommended local activities and floor plans of our home can be found on our OkemoHouse site.

The "Trailside Chalet" is a beautiful classic Vermont ski chalet with all the modern comforts of home. Our home is located ON OKEMO MOUNTAIN across the street from skiing and riding at Okemo Mountain Resort -- approximately a 200 yard walk downhill from the Sunshine Chairlift and Suncatcher ski trail (typically open end of Dec - end of March). Best part is - you won't ever hit any traffic because we are already on the mountain! The Chalet is located on a private wooded lot overlooking a babbling brook on Okemo Mountain. Our updated kitchen and 2 1/2 bathrooms are complimented by 5 bedrooms, a pool table, outdoor fire pit, and plenty of space to spread out!
A short drive down the mountain is the picturesque town of Ludlow with many quaint restaurants and shops.

Fantastic ski weekend with friends!

We had a blast during our stay at Okemo House. The house was spacious enough for 10 people and stocked with everything we needed for a long weekend. Couldn’t beat the proximity to the chair lift and downtown Ludlow! Would definitely stay here again.

Ideal setting for our small family to just site-see & relax for a couple of days. Quite a number of craft shows , exhibits, & festivals, all within about 20 minutes drive. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there amid perfect Fall colors! We’d do it again.

Tranquil getaway

We love to come to Okemo in the off season to get away and relax. We came here with another family and had plenty of space. The beds were comfortable, everyone loved the pool table and the fire pit area outside. Owners were responsive and made sure we got there ok and everything was up to par in the house, which it was. Very clean and organized.. Ludlow is a cute town and we drove to Woodstock and Quechee and enjoyed a day out there. We would definitely rent here again. Thanks so much for a pleasant stay.

Great house that is so close to Okemo, shopping, and restaurants!

The house was very spacious and comfortable for my family. The kitchen had everything we needed. My kids loved learning how to play pool and sleep in the bunk beds. It was a quick five minute trip to all the mountain activities, great restaurants, and farmers markets. We also loved going swimming just down the road to Buttermilk Falls. We hope to return !

Quiet and Central location to everything we wanted to do

We visit the area in the summer months so we don’t have feedback on the ski ability to the slopes. This was our first time renting this home. It’s in a quiet area right outside of town, but easy to drive to town for dinner and groceries. We went to Buttermilk Falls and kayaked on Amherst Lake and Lake Echo which were both easy drives from the house. The home had plenty of room for our group of 9. Air conditioners are provided for the summer to help keep the house cool on the main and upper floor. There is a washer and dryer on the bottom floor. Nice fire pit with wood provided. We had a great time and didn’t want to head home. We would rent again if back in the area.

Great place for a group of 10

A really nice house with full kitchen, loft with two queen bedrooms separated by a bathroom, ground floor room with king and bathroom, and basement with two bedrooms - one with two twin beds and one with four bunk beds. The house had a working washer/dryer, fully functioning kitchen, two TV areas, a pool table, and dining table for 6-8The house was fully equipped and everything worked well. We visited in the winter and they had the driveway and steps cleared and salted every day. The house was comfortable and served us really well. The house is technically in walking distance of a lift - it's on the Sunrise side (right side when looking at a map), and the lift is maybe 1000 feet from the house. It's not super easy to get there with ski boots, but neither is driving to the base of the mountain. The access road is steep, but we didn't have trouble in our two wheel drive mini van. There's a grocery store nearby that does order pickup, and there is a place the rents skis off-mountain (half the price) at the bottom of the access road. The only things to mention (none take away from our great review, but are worth knowing) are:1. this house has a spiral staircase between all floors, which might not suit those with limited mobility and require care if you've got babies crawling around who can easily access the steeper stairs. 2. There's no bathroom on the bottom floor, so the 2-twin and 4 bunk bed rooms (kids) will need to come to the middle (entry) floor.Great place!

Okemo Trip

Nice, big place. There are very few 5-bedrom places for rent, so this was very good. Communications with the owner were excellent. He was very accommodating and managed to get us in early to watch a football playoff game. (Note: no cable TV, so be ready to be creative with YouTube, etc. to get network TV.)Nice, big fireplace and plenty of wood. Nice common space for gathering around the TV and fireplace. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and cookware. It's about a 200 yard walk (according to an Apple Watch) to the nearest lift. Not bad normally, but it is straight uphill, so a little workout while carrying skis or a board.Ample parking for 3-4 cars.If you need a big place near the mountain, this is for you.

This home on Okemo Mountain is FANTASTIC!

Trailside Chalet is a fantastic home!! The layout of the home allows for coziness and a bit of separation too! The rec room level is perfect with the pool table and dart board, room to hang on the couch with the option of a cozy fire, along with 2 bedroom and a laundry area! The main floor also has a great layout with a mudroom, main level bedroom, a full bathroom, kitchen, dining areas, as well as a living room area with a huge TV above the fireplace! The top level has two bedrooms and another full bathroom! The home is heated well and always felt warm and the decor was really nice! The main level has lots of windows and sliding glass doors for a wide-open view to the outdoors! It is a 3–4-minute ride into town and is directly across from a chair lift! I highly recommend this home for anyone looking for a great time in Ludlow! Thank you so much for sharing your home!! We had a lovely time!!
