Inn Details

Set high in the Green Mountains, the Black Bear Inn offers a warm and restful atmosphere each season of the year. As you ascend our mountain road, you'll be charmed by the peace and beauty that surround our area (and maybe a moose or two!). A warm Vermont greeting welcomes each guest, as well as hot country breakfasts each morning featuring fresh muffins and local maple syrup. Many of the inn's 25 rooms and suites feature private outdoor hot tubs, firestoves, and balconies with Adirondack views. Families are always welcome at the inn, and will sleep comfortably in many of the inn's larger rooms and suites. After a day of sightseeing, hiking, or skiing, you may want to return to the inn for a three-course dinner prepared by our own Chef Brian O'Neil.
We are Vermont's only ski-on/ski-off inn, slope-side to Bolton Valley Resort. Also just minutes from Burlington, Waterbury, and Stowe. Pet-friendly.
