About Mountain Top Resort
Mountain Top Resort is a year-round outdoor adventure destination set on over 700 acres of meadows, forest, and lakefront in Chittenden, Vermont, just 11 miles from Killington. Overlooking the scenic Chittenden Reservoir with sweeping views of the Green Mountains, the resort has operated as one of New England's premier wilderness retreats for decades, offering a rare combination of upscale lodging and hands-on outdoor recreation.
In summer, guests enjoy complimentary kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards from the resort's private beach, along with guided horseback trail rides through 40 miles of designated equestrian trails at Vermont's only resort-based Equestrian Center. Fishing, hiking, and mountain biking round out the warm-weather offerings. In winter, Mountain Top operates one of the country's oldest cross-country ski and snowshoe centres with 60 kilometres of groomed Nordic trails, plus fat biking, ice skating, and a free shuttle to Killington for alpine skiing.
What makes Mountain Top stand out is the sheer breadth of activities under one roof across all four seasons, paired with the intimate feel of a countryside inn rather than a mega-resort. Families, couples, and corporate groups alike return year after year for the combination of Vermont hospitality, lakefront setting, and the ability to ride horses in the morning, paddle in the afternoon, and cross-country ski the same trails come winter.
