Ideal Tours in an Idyllic Setting

The Mountaineer Inn of Mount Snow, Vermont, has beckoned summer and fall visitors for decades. Mount Snow continues to be one of the most popular destinations for Groups of all kinds--Seniors, churches, travel clubs, etc. The Mountaineer one of the area's more popular inns. The Inn is starting its sixth year of family ownership by Royal and Ned Wilson. It sits on a beautiful 25-acre meadow and is bordered by two brooks and a nature path. There are 27 recently renovated, non-smoking guest rooms, all with private bath. All individually and charmingly decorated with country antiques, pretty wallpaper and quaint prints, each room enjoys a pleasant view of forest, mountain or meadow.

Senior Groups delight in the fact that with one motor coach they "take over" the entire Inn, are the center of our attention and can gather with ease in our sunny, comfortable lounges. They love the charming decor, our excellent, nationally recognized food, our enthusiastic tour guide, the clean rooms and our friendly staff. Because of the personal, caring attention, group leaders are assured that everyone has a great time.
