About this house rental
Winter or summer, dog-friendly Lakewood Lodge on Kent Pond, is the perfect location for a wonderful vacation with family and friends. Located minutes from the Killington Access Road, Lakewood Lodge is just a mile down Route 100N from Route 4. You have the choice of going to the Killington Base Lodge (5 miles), to the Skyeship Gondola (6 miles), or just a few minutes west to Pico Peak (3 miles). Even though it's so close to everything, Lakewood Lodge is a tranquil retreat in a very secluded setting. While this property welcomes pets, we do charge an additional $150.00 per pet. (please note this unit has NO AIR CONDITIONING)
There are several living areas so everyone can enjoy their own space. The Great Room has a spectacular fieldstone fireplace which is the perfect gathering place to enjoy everyone's company. The second floor has three bedrooms, one with a queen, one with a double, and one with two double beds. Central to the second floor is a family room with a queen-sized sofa bed and another TV.
The third floor is a large Master suite with a king-size bed, en-suite bath, and serene sitting room with the finest views in the house of Kent Pond and Pico Peak. With its additional queen-plus sleep sofa the Master suite can sleep an entire family of four! The house easily accommodates up to ten people.
A glass door leads from the Great Room to an expansive bluestone patio with a seven-person hot tub and a luxurious outdoor living room facing a magnificent fireplace of boulders and stones. A great place to relax and enjoy the pond view.
An attached two-car garage provides direct access to the large mudroom/entry with a long bench and tile floor. In addition, the garage has a 240V outlet for electric car charging.
During warmer weather, follow a well-marked path just 300 feet to your own waterfront where you can launch kayaks, canoes, or paddle-boards to spend a bucolic day on Kent Pond fishing or just listening to loons and watching beavers at work. Paddle across the pond to a splendid waterfall and swimming hole on the Appalachian Trail which passes just half a mile from Lakewood Lodge along the south shore of the pond and crosses Vermont's Long Trail a few miles down the road. Hiking the AT west a bit will reward you with the spectacular overlook of Deer Leap, or walk east to breathtaking Thundering Brook Falls. Miles of newly-cut mountain biking trails are also directly accessible by taking Rt 100N about .5 miles from the house.
The Green Mountains have so many activities for the outdoor enthusiast. You can go tubing on the White River or up to Killington Resort which has an ever-growing network of mountain biking trails for all abilities. The Adventure Center there has zip lines, an obstacle course, a free-fall jump tower and more for your daredevils.
Vermont's best public golf course, Green Mountain National Golf Course, is only one mile from Lakewood Lodge, and the very challenging Killington Golf Course is just up the Access Road.
History buffs can enjoy Revolutionary battlefields or a trip to The Calvin Coolidge Homestead and Library in Plymouth, just 15 minutes from Killington. Woodstock, the quintessential Vermont town, is home to the Billings Farm and Museum and the Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park.
Year round, Lakewood Lodge has so much for the whole family! You won't want to leave?

Really beautiful, well appointed and well maintained property. We enjoyed our stay tremendously and the professional management was just that - very professional - so everything worked as it should.

Relaxing escape!
We arrived on a Thursday and had anticipated skiing all day and collapsing into this home at the end of a bluebird day on the mountain. Unfortunately Thursday was 50 degrees and pouring rain followed by a flash freeze on Friday; not the best recipe for bluebird skiing conditions!
All was not lost! This home was amazing and all agreed that we had an amazing time; puzzles, reading and movies (and great wine) dominated as we relaxed in this amazing home. A spacious but somehow cozy environment gave everyone the space to gather and find a quiet sanctuary for reading and napping. The well stocked kitchen allowed us to cook in. The neighborhood provided a quiet setting for walks and nearby hiking trails gave an opportunity for a bit more adventure.
In short, we loved this place and hope to return in the future!

Really enjoyed the house. The fireplace with ample firewood and the hot tub were as good if not better than shown in the pictures. Great location no matter the time of year. So much to do in the area. Would definitely recommend it to friends and family. A recommendation would be to have a book readily available such as on the kitchen table that explains use of the stereo system, coffee pot, expresso machine, and bidet. Place a note on the laundry chute in upstairs bathroom, "do not use," so that towels don't get put in there. They do not go to the laundry room below! We really enjoyed our stay and would stay there again!

Perfect getaway!
We loved every bit of our stay, from the clean and comfortable house to the beautiful scenery to the lovely launching pad into the pond. The whole place is fantastic. The kitchen was great for making meals, the living room with fireplace was super cozy, and the sunlit breezy master suite was a decadent way to wake up. The access to paddle board and canoe was a major plus. Minutes away was an afternoon of hiking at Gifford State Park. Loved the easy commute to great restaurants and the mountain bike park too. We look forward to coming back.
