Nice to go to a room at the end of a long drive and have the room be clean. It was great for what we were looking for - just a place to rest our heads while we went visiting family in Vermont.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Very quiet and clean with sweet & helpful staff members. Only complaint is that the bedrooms get a little warm as the AC is just in the living room and not in the bedrooms. Overall great stay!

The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. We had originally booked a stay somewhere else, and were very disappointed when we got there. We ended up leaving the place we originally booked, and so thankful that we found Mad River Lodge to turn around our weekend getaway. We would absolutely recommend and return in the future.

Good Location. Room was clean and comfortable. All you need for one night. Could hear guests upstairs and no coffee in the room. Great for one night. Check in was super easy and super friendly

Matthew

Great friendly service. Appreciated the ease of entering and leaving the room. Room and bathroom was immaculately clean. Space was incredibly small. Banged into the tv walking around the end of the bed to go to the washroom in the middle of the night The bathroom was claustrophobic. Sink must be the minimum legal size. Shower was hardly big enough to turn around in. Finally, the place wasn’t near anything a half hour drive from Waterbury. The drive was beautiful and the area around the lodge is gorgeous. Don’t get me wrong. The place was t bad. Just much smaller than I expected. Well worth a stay if you’re ok with the space.
