“Time to Clear Up the Lies about the Distance to Mount Snow”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012

Several years ago I stayed at the the Horizon Inn with my children for a ski vacation at Mount Snow. Before we arrived, we were told that Mount Snow was only about ten or fifteen minutes from the Inn. We were also told that we could see Mount Snow from the Inn.

When we arrived, we could not see Mount Snow. When we asked, the owner pointed a mountain way, way, way far off and told us that was the BACK of Mount Snow!

The drive from the Horizon Inn to Mount Snow is easily 30 minutes, over twisty, winding mountain roads. Contrary to the comments of others here, it is NOT a 15 minute drive. I should know, having driving this route more than sixteen times.

Please see the attached review photo, showing the route between the two points.

The Inn is not a bad place to stay. The management was nice and the rooms were comfortable. But I feel that the dishonesty regarding the proximity to Mount Snow negates these factors and earns this establishment a lower score. Had management been upfront with us about the distance to the ski area, we would have stayed elsewhere.

“Great Staff!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 February 2011

Some of the best people work there. Met several couples who have been staying there for years. Not a 4 star hotel, but does the job if you are trying to save a little money and have a really good experience. Clean room, clean pool and hot jacuzzi!

Do not miss the homemade muffins at the all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet.

“Disappointing”

Expensive, no refrigerator, no continental breakfast, restaurant closed or reserved fro tour bus people. Too pricey for what is offered.

“Great place for families!”

My husband and I brought our three kids (6,8,9) here for a ski trip to Mount Snow. It was ideal for the kids. Horizon Inn has a great game room with pool,ping pong, and air hockey. We also really enjoyed the hot tub and pool. They have snacks for purchase in the lobby and a comfortable sitting area. The staff was very nice. We felt right at home and would definitely return.

“nice play to stay for mount snow”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2010

Family owned with clean rooms. Owner (Cliff) was nice and accommodating. I had booked a trip there earlier this year but got stuck in a snow storm, and had to cancel the reservation 2 hours before check-in. He gave me a big discount for a 2 night weekend stay which I thought was very cool. There is one jet in the hot tub which has twice the power of the others and it was just like a chair massage.
