Earlier this week I received a call from the manager of the Woodstock Inn and Resort in VT that they were closed for the foreseeable future due to massive dammage from Hurricane Irene. I have stayed at this resort many times and was looking forward to going back for the holiday weekend. But more importantly, the devastation up and down the East Coast is heartbreaking to see.
Still wanting to head to the Green Mountain State for a spa weekend with friends, I decided to book a suite at the new STOWE MOUNTAIN LODGE. I had heard rave reviews and it looks so much like Beaver Creek!
The resort
The rooms (I made sure I got one with a mountain view).
The spa - heaven!
What a stunning backdrop for a wedding! And one of our favorite photographers BARRIE FISHER took the pictures below and is based in VT.
Whatever your plans, have a great Labor Day Weekend!

ReplyDeleteSince I'm sitting on a warm, humid porch in the dear old South, these pictures are making me swoon! That wedding dress is beautiful, btw. Thanks for sharing all these pictures!

I haven't been to Stowe in years. Now, I see what I've been missing! What a view!!!
ReplyDeleteWe should all flock to VT this fall and winter so that places like these and others don't feel the effects of Irene too greatly. Rumor has it that all the roads leading to the home we rent at Mt. Snow are impassable - our fingers are crossed that they will reopen very soon. Hope you have a great Labor Day, Kate!
