Suddenly, Winter
It happened all at once, as it often does. As the morning light rose over the mountain, a winter wonderland appeared in Woodstock, Vermont. Where just the night before the infamous stick season reigned, suddenly the fields, rooftops, and sidewalks showed us that winter was here. A fresh snowfall always brings great excitement for the season ahead, and we look forward to many more magical mornings with a new layer of powder. The charm of the holidays, the thrill of snow sports, the cozy fireside chats, and so much more await you during winter at Vermont’s most beautiful address.

Midnight in Vermont
Midnight in Vermont is not only when and where we will be celebrating the start of 2025, but also the name of our delicious New Year’s Eve specialty cocktail. The rich burgundy color, the light bubbly feel, the warmth of cinnamon, and the zing of citrus represents everything a grand New Year’s Eve party should have! Join us to sip and celebrate on December 31 with your choice of two fantastic events. For adults looking to dress up and dance, reserve your tickets to our adults-only New Year’s Eve Bash in the Rockefeller Room. For families who want to glitter and glow, join us in the Ballroom for the Family New Year’s Eve Glow Party!

Snow is for Snow Sports
Winter doesn’t keep us inside! One of our favorite parts of the snowy season is all the ways we can stay active and try new activities while enjoying the beautiful nature that is in Woodstock, Vermont. What snow sport are you looking forward to this winter?
- Alpine skiing and snowboarding at Saskadena Six. Our small community mountain is perfect for families and those learning to ski and ride!
- Cross Country skiing at the Woodstock Nordic Center. A great form of exercise with trails that wind all over the mountains in Woodstock, Vermont.
- Snowshoeing the trails in the Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park, on Mt. Peg, or the path at Billings Farm & Museum. An easy snow sport that can take you up to beautiful views or around scenic pastures.

The Spa’s Seasonal Treatment
A winter warm-up filled with wellness awaits you at The Spa. This season’s specialty body treatment is reminiscent of everyone’s favorite hot peppermint mocha drink. The soothing service begins with a rich and invigorating chocolate mint body scrub to exfoliate your winter skin. Next, a softening and luxurious aloe gel wrap cocoons you. While you soak up the warmth, enjoy a wild lime scalp massage and freshening peppermint foot massage. Your experience is topped off with a fittingly sweet and hydrating marshmallow lotion as you relax, and your winter skin relishes the relief.
