The West Hill House is a cozy and homey -- if not quite luxurious -- bed-and-breakfast escape. Each room is different, and all have plenty of space, comfortable beds, and working fireplaces. It's the B&B style of service that makes this place stand out: Details ranging from innkeeper Peter's well-stocked wine cellar, to the mug warmer, to the three-course breakfasts, really make the experience. It's also very close to Sugarbush Ski and Golf resort, although many of Vermont's other tourist attractions are a one-hour drive or more away.

While the decor at this budget hotel may be on the bland side, all 95 suites feature kitchenettes, free Wi-Fi, and large flat-screen TVs. There's not much in the way of amenities -- just a tiny fitness center (no restaurant). But the affordable prices and proximity to downtown Burlington make the TownePlace Suites a solid option for business travelers on extended stays.

The Vermont Inn is a historic, family-run property in tiny Mendon, located halfway between Killington Ski Resort and Rutland. It has classic New England decor throughout and an overall cozy feel, but common spaces could use refreshing. Rooms are homey if not luxurious, and vary in size and configuration. They all have small flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and clean bathrooms, and some have features such as four-poster beds, fireplaces, and jetted tubs. The pub offers a wonderful breakfast that is included in the nightly rate; for lunch and dinner, guests must go elsewhere. The property was featured on the Travel Channel show Hotel Impossible, during which it received an upgraded, shabby-chic look in the Bridal Suite and improved landscaping on the grounds.

Forty Putney Road is a small, riverfront B&B with lovely scenery. The decor is more understated than the classic New England style of big floral prints and four-poster beds, but it feels updated and fresh. A two-course, gourmet free breakfast is a highlight here, along with the on-site intimate pub and long list of local brews. No children under 12 are allowed at the inn, encouraging a romantic stay. Most rooms have cozy gas fireplaces, but like most B&Bs, the inn doesn't offer a fitness center or spa. Additional perks here include rooms stocked with free goodies like snacks and drinks, and an indoor Jacuzzi overlooking the grounds.

With hundreds of apartments spread across five communities in Vermont’s Green Mountains, Smugglers' Notch Resort is a mid-range, village-style resort popular with families. Every unit includes a full kitchen and some have fireplaces, though the decor throughout is outdated. Kid-friendly activities abound year-round, including multiple kid and teen zones, supervised activities, and a number of on-site pools and waterslides. The resort runs a free shuttle that takes guests to the three ski mountains that comprise Smugglers' Notch. The Trapp Family Lodge is another family option in the area, though it's typically pricier and lacks the in-room kitchens and waterslides found here.

This Vermont inn offers a lovely restaurant with free breakfast, personalized service, and an escape from technology -- rooms are TV-free and cell phones have limited service.
