Topnotch at Stowe Resort & Spa
4000 Mountain Road
Stowe, VT, USA
Style: Contemporary Classic
Atmosphere: Quiet
105 Rooms
Though not blessed with the same natural gifts as some western resorts, Stowe offers some of New England’s finest skiing, and more than a few excellent hotels. Notable among these is the aptly named Topnotch, a perennial East Coast favorite occupying 120 acres of land between the town of Stowe and the ski resort at Mount Mansfield.
No rustic old lodge, Topnotch is one of the Northeast’s most luxurious resorts. While the exteriors are perhaps not much to look at, the public spaces are striking and surprisingly contemporary, and the guest rooms are decorated in a European country house style, at once more elegant than the average clunky ski lodge and more unpretentious than many of the East Coast’s fussier five-stars.
Even standard rooms are plush and spacious, and the suites quickly escalate into haute-luxury territory, the best ones complete with fireplaces and efficiency kitchens. Larger parties or guests with a taste for excess can book the Resort Homes, self-contained residences with full kitchens and laundry rooms — and anyone with the means and the inclination can purchase one of the homes and make the Topnotch experience a permanent one.
Facilities are suitably grand, including a palatial spa complex offering a wide array of treatments and fitness classes, and indoor and outdoor pools and tennis facilities. And while skiing on the slopes of the Stowe resort is the chief attraction, Topnotch is a worthy year-round destination, with access to a wealth of outdoor activities, from hiking and biking to canoeing, fly-fishing and horseback riding.
