Exceptional Value Everyday

• Please note that there are no mandatory service charges or resort fees added to your room rate at the Brass Lantern Inn. Be sure to consider this if you are comparing rates. Our staff greatly appreciates any gratuity and as always is at your own discretion. We do include two voluntary donations/fees that are used to support the Stowe community.

• Brass Lantern Inn is now a member of Stowe Land Trust’s Hospitality Partners program. This program gives guests an easy way to give back to Stowe, so that it will always remain a special place to visit. For every night’s stay with one of SLT's Hospitality Partners, a $1 donation goes to Stowe Land Trust. These voluntary donations are used to support SLT's work to conserve important natural resources in the Stowe area. Learn more about the Stowe Land Trust here.

• As a member of the Stowe Area Association, Brass Lantern Inn collects the Stowe Community Tourism Support fee. This fee is collected by lodging properties and used to fund tourism initiatives in the area. Stowe’s fee of $3.50 plus tax per night goes towards operating the Go Stowe Visitor Information Center, maintaining the GoStowe.com website, funding strategic marketing campaigns and supporting local events and small businesses. If you do not wish to contribute, just ask and we will remove it from your bill. Learn more here.

• Rates are based on double occupancy (2 people), unless otherwise noted and include a full, Vermont Fresh breakfast each morning, afternoon/evening snack and access to all common area amenities including our outdoor hot tub, in sight of Mt. Mansfield and open to the star filled sky.

• Additional people beyond double occupancy in the same room (adults or children) are $25.00 per person per day (see room description for maximum occupancy). Please ensure all guests are accounted for in your reservation so that we may have your room ready for your party. The only exception to this is the Dewey Mountain room which accommodates 4 people at no additional charge. Vermont State Rooms and Meals Tax (10%) is not included in the standard daily rate and is, therefore, additional.

• We currently only accept children over the age of 8 unless the entire Inn is reserved by the same party (please contact us to discuss a whole Inn rental).

• As of 9/1/2025, we are no longer accepting pets. Our prior policy applies to reservations made prior to this date. If you are a regular guest with a pet, please contact us to discuss how we can still accommodate you.

• We are honored to welcome Select Registry Select Rewards Members to our property. Select Rewards members are eligible for half hour early checkin in and half hour late check out (on request) as well as complementary room upgrades, subject to availability. These benefits will be continue to be enhanced in the future. If you have stayed with us in the past but did not sign up, you can still report room nights up to 24 months in the past. Log nights here.
