Downing Mountain Lodge 

Great location with everything we were looking for.  Fresh air, quiet, dark nights, no people.  Great relaxing get away in a unique lodge.  Plenty of adventure awaits outside.  Great small town just 20 minutes away with Farmer’s market, cool shops, etc…

SCENERY DOESN’T GET BETTER

The pictures on the website are just a preview to how amazing this place is when you actually arrive. Clean, welcoming and John was great to work with. Couldn’t imagine staying anywhere else.

Amazing

The Downing Mountain Lodge is such a unique, beautiful place. I couldn’t give it anything but five stars. However, with that said, it is rustic. The linens and pillows could use some updating, and you’ll need to bring your own towels. Plus, renters don’t always follow the cleaning checklist. The floor had definitely not been vacuumed by the previous renters as it was supposed to be. With that said, we loved this place. It’s quirky, peaceful, lost in time, and spacious. Additionally, the views are astounding. We’ll be visiting again.

Terrific stay

We had our wedding up here in mid September.  It was such a nice spot for a 75 person wedding.  John, the owner really spruced up the place and even put a fresh coat of stain on the deck for our special day!
We had a band in the breezeway by the front door, buffet set up inside, caterers prepared the meal in the kitchen, two tents to extend the cover of the breezeway making room for outdoor seated dinner.
Guests mingled inside and out. Was really cool to have family from the city get to visit a mount side like this... everyone was blown away.   Cant wait to get back here skiing.  Thanks John!

Amazing wedding venue
