A bunch of us are skiing this area march 6/7/8. We are looking for lodging on the cheaper side no frills needed. Prob about 6 of us. Thanks for any suggestions.

Hyde Away in Waitsfield is always a good cheap bet. Fun bar, good food, and close to the mt. Dorm room above the bar, so you best close it if you want to sleep, tho.

Smuggs and MRG aren't really that close. The winter drive is over an hour. Did you mean Sugarbush?

Thanks. The rog hookup sounded great but leaving wife and kids home for this one so!
So trying to get 6 people all set with lodging proved to be tough as two are extremely indecisive. We booked s Burlington and will hit sugarbush, smuggs, and either mrg or Stowe.

What's a good bar in Burlington?

Definitely Flatbread, but had a lame $17 burger at The Farmhouse yesterday.

Mad Taco in Waitsfield has great food and beer for good MRV eats.

Thanks for the suggestions. Last year we stopped at some smoke house type place with a floor so un level that after enough beers you could roll back to he bar. Across from egans old place. Beers flowed well and food was great.

The Smoke House


Not a big night life scene in MRV, but the Castlerock Pub is fun après ski.

So the group went to sugarbush on fri and I met up for smuggs sat and we decided to ski smuggs on Sunday too. That is one fun mountain. So much to explore. Glades and chutes everywhere. Can't wait to get back.
