The Main LODGE

MAIN LODGE.jpg

Formerly known as the Ski Loft Residence and Warehouse, the main lodge was originally used to assemble skis in the ‘50s and ‘60s. Today the carefully restored triplex includes six spacious suites and an Innkeeper’s quarters, each inspired by a local tree species. The lodge pays homage to the camaraderie of the original Seesaw’s, incorporating elements from the inn’s history that give the rustic retreat its unique charm and rich character.

Relax on the first floor in front of the fireplace and take in the Vermont vista from the lodge’s soaring floor-to-ceiling windows. Gather in the game room and eat, drink and be merry before retiring to the comfort of our thoughtfully appointed guestrooms.

We invite you to make yourself at home and take advantage of all the area has to offer. If you have any questions or need assistance, please don’t hesitate to text Guest Services at 802-379-5258. Enjoy your stay!

​

Staying at Lodge

The lodge is a versatile space designed to accommodate individual bookings or large groups. We kindly request that guests be mindful of shared areas and embrace the communal spirit of the main floor.

Complimentary WiFi is available to all of our guests. The password for Seesaw’s Guest WiFi is “wonderview” (case- sensitive).

​

Coming and Going

Check-in begins at 4PM, and we’re happy to welcome you any time before 10PM, after which self-service check-in is available. Check-out is promptly at noon. Please text Guest Servies when checking out.

The four-digit code to unlock the main door will be provided to you. To unlock the exterior door from the outside, enter the code provided and wait for lock to disengage (in the dark, pressing the logo at the top will illuminate the keypad). The entry doors are programmed to automatically lock after four minutes. If you prefer to manually lock the entry door, you can press the top logo and it will lock.

Bedroom doors are pre-programmed with the same code as the main entrance. We are happy to program locks with a personal code upon advance request.

You’ll find a key hanging by all French doors. Please lock the doors when leaving the room unattended.

 

Bedrooms

All of our rooms feature queen or king beds, and select guestrooms include a sleeper sofa. With advance notice, we can provide linens for guests who would like to make use of the sleeper. If you need additional blankets or pillows, just text Guest Servies.

​

Television 

Each bedroom is equipped with LED smart TVs so you can bring along your favorite entertainment account, whether Netflix, Hulu, Amazon or other systems. We do not have a "house account" to share. There are a few FREE options within the Roku system. 

​

Bathrooms

All of our bathrooms feature glass shower doors. Please be careful and avoid leaning on the doors for support. Bathtubs have spring-loaded drains. Just step on the drain to seal it, and step on it again to drain the tub. Please use the towel racks to hang towels for reuse (not for doing pull-ups). Hair dryers are found in the vanity drawers along with extra toilet paper. We’re proud to stock our bathrooms with handmade amenities by Dorset Daughters, a local Vermont brand we love that uses naturally sourced ingredients. Shampoo, conditioner, moisturizer and bar soap are all provided. Please contact Guest Servies if you need toiletries restocked or forgot to pack any essentials.

 

Kitchen

Guests booking the entire lodge are free to use the lodge kitchen and stock the fridge with their own groceries. We ask that guests booking individual rooms limit their kitchen use to quick meals and refrain from using the range/stove, which will have the gas turned off. Please be considerate of your fellow guests when using the common space.

Kitchen supplies include:

Refrigerator/Freezer
Dishwasher
Toaster oven
Microwave

Wine Fridge
Additional mini fridge

Electric kettles (for hot water only,
do not use instant coffee)

Keurig coffee maker and complimentary pods
Cleaning supplies (under the sink)
Trash/recycling bins

​

Trash/Recycling

The kitchen features trash and recycling bins that are emptied daily. Be sure to carefully rinse empty food and drink containers before recycling to avoid attracting wildlife!

 

Storage

Please store your skis, snowboards, and bicycles on the racks provided outside. If you need to bring your equipment inside, we ask that you use the racks in the foyer and avoid placing any items in the window. We want to ensure that your belongings are secure. If you need additional locked storage, please reach out to the Innkeeper and we will gladly provide a valet service to store and care for anything precious.

 

Windows/French Doors

All windows and French doors can be opened or closed. To lock French doors from the inside, be sure to lift the handle up firmly to a vertical position and the lock will engage.

Please operate window shades gently. Use the circular pull to open and close the Roman shades. If window screens are missing, please notify the Innkeeper. We ask that you kindly leave the screens in place—we feel strongly about our forest friends staying outside.

 

Fireplaces

To start a fire in the common room, please contact the Innkeeper. The upstairs gas fireplaces are controlled by a thermostat labeled “fireplace.” To turn the fire on, set desired temperature level (above current temperature display) and set the switch to “heat” or “on.” Before leaving the room or retiring for the evening, please turn the fire off or lower the temperature setting below current room temperature. Please be careful NOT to touch the glass when the fireplace unit is on or still hot.

​

Temperature

Each floor has its own Ecobee thermostat set for everyone’s comfort, with preprogrammed temperatures tailored to day and night. Please do not adjust these manually. If you would like to adjust the temperature, please contact the Innkeeper. In individual bedrooms, the temperature can be raised or lowered according to your personal comfort by the wall control.

 

Housekeeping

Seesaw’s Lodge is committed to ensuring a clean unit to make your stay enjoyable. Services are based on the number of nights within your reservation. 1-2 Nights – Rooms have an initial supply of bath towels, hand towels and wash cloths.  Housekeeping will not enter your room during this length of stay unless additional services are requested. 3-7 Nights – One Full Service Cleaning is provided mid-stay. Refresh Service (upon request) An optional full cleaning is also available upon request for an additional fee. Cleaning supplies are located under the sink for any immediate needs.

 

Pets

We love dogs! Up to two pups are welcome to join you for $50 a night, per dog, when you book the entire lodge. If they make a mess or chew the furniture, it’s not their fault—it’s their owners who might need training. That’s why we hold humans accountable for all damages and clean-up costs. Please let us know in advance if you plan to bring a pet so we can prep for your furry friend’s arrival. We ask that dogs not be left alone in the lodge and that owners crate or walk dogs during housekeeping services.

 

Art

We’re proud to showcase work by local artists in our rooms. If any pieces of artwork catch your eye, they may be for sale—look for a yellow sticker. Ask the Innkeeper for pricing details.

 

Guest Book

We would love to hear about your stay. Please feel free to share your memories, stories and experiences in our Guest Book and/or on our website under Seesaw’s Stories!

 

Accessibility

The lower level of the lodge is ADA compliant. Please let us know in advance if you or your guests need an accessible room.

 

Safety

The Boiler room and Housekeeping closets are locked for your safety. Please do not attempt to open these doors.

Boilers are propane gas-fired. If you smell gas, please evacuate the building at once and notify the Innkeeper immediately. Please note that the surveillance cameras in common areas and on site are for your security and for liability purposes. If anything goes missing, we can consult the footage; otherwise it won’t be viewed. In the event of an emergency, contact 911.
