As you know, the husband and I have a timeshare and it’s through that we do most of our traveling. In the six years we’ve owned it we’ve been to some fabulous resorts…. Sedona, Williamsburg, Palm Coast… all wonderful. Killington, not so much. Our choice this trip was Smugglers Notch, a ski resort in Jeffersonville Vermont we’ve visited twice before. Our first stay was marvelous, our second less so. It’s a bit of a crap shoot which unit and community you’ll be assigned, and seeing that this was a last minute booking at peak leaf peeping season, there wasn’t any wiggle room.
The resort is tucked away on the side of a mountain and is quite large.

We like peace and quiet and prefer the condos on the edges, away from the center village’s restaurants and shops. So naturally they booked us into Evergreen, right behind the main office.
Pro – we got the top floor and could see the mountain from our balcony.
.

.
Con – we were right next to the chair lift.
.


.
Pro – the unit was large. Two bedrooms, 2 baths, fireplace and full kitchen. Solidly built, we never heard doors closing or noisy neighbors.
.

.
Con- the decor hadn’t been updated for decades and was extremely plain.
.

.
Pro- the king size bed was very comfortable.
.

.
And there was a free box of maple cookies to munch while reclining.
.

.
Con- there was a jacuzzi tub in bedroom. I’ve seen this at a quite a few other resorts and it never fails to surprise me. Tubs belong in bathrooms, period.

And by the way…
The eighties called, they want their wallpaper back.
.

.
Mirrors?
Oh yeah, there were plenty of those.
.

.
Damn. That was a whole lotta me to wake up to every morning.
