Hotel must inform guests prior to giving room what room has and floor and fact that it does not have elevator . Room has one king size bed . Extremely diss appointed . Price was also very high for what you are getting . I will not recommend anyone go to their property prior calling them and making sure what you are paying for

Hi Gale, We appreciate your thoughts on the experience and do understand of if you were perhaps in search of a more spacious room type this visit. Although we are disheartened that we were unable to make changes to your selected room type within your third-party booking, we do invite you to consider exploring one of our more spacious suites the next time you are in town which offers additional square footage that you are sure to love. Warm regards!

I have to be honest, I wasn’t expecting much as the room rate here is no where near what is being asked at other places in town. We booked last minute due to snow, and I requested a larger room. My request was honored, with a living room and fireplace off of the bedroom, and a large bathroom as well. Furnishings were current and comfortable. Even though the lobby was a walk through the parking lot, there was a welcoming vibe there. Board games and free breakfast…which was not a throw away. Overnight oats in a mason jar, hard boiled egg and hummus on toast…it all summed up the thoughtful details we experienced throughout our stay. Minor quirks, a stained shower curtain instead of glass, and not enough caffeinated coffee pods. I would still stay here again.

Once again stayed at a LARK property. This time a Field Guide Lodge in Stowe, Vermont. WE had a suite that was absolutely fantastic...and the only thing better was the incredible staff at the Lodge - there just isn't enough that they can do for you to make your stay special. The pool is GORGEOUS, hot tub totally clean, the outdoor deck is really cool as well. Just a GREAT stay at Field Guide!

Nice place and great staff, needs a bit of updating as the rooms have seen better days. The breakfast was really pretty good! And glad they served respectable 'dark roast' coffee that was good. I would recommend for a quick stay in Stowe. Super convenient to many other attractions and restaurants. Great communication before and during stay using texting.

The hotel is an OLD lodge that has seen the furnishings and bathroom fixtures updated. However, the rooms and their layout are still the same OLD, musty rooms with creaky, sloped floors. The bathrooms are just plain weird with walls too close to the toilet and strange showers. The air conditioning is noisy and triggers all night long. Overall, this lodge is fine. However, for the same $$$, you could stay at many other places in the Village or at the ski resort for superior experiences. So, unless your getting a good deal, I’d look elsewhere.

Thanks for sharing this perspective with us and we hope to have the opportunity to one day welcome you and win your heart in full. All the best!

What a lovely hotel. Our room was bright and well equipped. We appreciated bath robes and little extras such as bath salts. Every single staff member was so friendly and helpful. Enjoyed the heated swimming pool. Thanks for a perfect stay in such a pretty resort.

Beautiful lounge areas.king room was large. No closet but there was a rough hewn clothing rack. Bathroom was too small and toilet inches away from wall was uncomfortable. Hot tub was nice...half hour maximum once per Day by reservation. Staff friendly. Large bar. Breakfast had interesting home made items like mini keish and apple fritters that adults might like but not geared for kids (no cereal). Plenty of board games and 3 fireplaces. Office closed at 8 pm! Got a reduced rate reduction of ski season. 15 min. Stowe mtn skiing

Overall, the experience was a good one. We were upgraded upon check in to a "King Suite." A lot more space, which was nice. The room was relatively "updated," with the exception of the stand-in shower. The shower was an eye sore - very dark, dated, and cheap. Would've also appreciated a fridge a bit larger than dorm-room size on the floor. The lobby area and bar on site were very stylish and comfy and gave good vibes. The daily "grab and go" breakfast was really a nice touch. The offerings were high quality and the selection changed daily. The location was decent, a few restaurants within the block and the "downtown" a 5minute walk away. The free shuttle has stops across the street and was extremely convenient method of transport to and from the slopes! We had a great time in Stowe and would return. I highly recommend "Harrison's" restaurant, it was the culinary favorite of our trip!!!…
