Moose Meadow Lodge & Treehouse

My husband and I stayed at Moose Meadow Lodge for our elopement/wedding day, and it was an absolutely magical experience. We booked the elopement package and stayed in the enchanting Tree House. Our visit was at the end of October, and despite the chilly season, the Tree House was perfectly warm and cozy, with plenty of hot water for the shower. From the moment we arrived, Greg and Willie’s hospitality made us feel right at home. Willie prepared delicious breakfasts every morning, and Greg went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding day was flawless—he even made sure we left with our marriage certificates in hand. The day after our wedding, we hiked up to the Sky Loft and were rewarded with breathtaking views of the mountains. It was the perfect way to end such a memorable trip. We can’t recommend Moose Meadow Lodge highly enough to anyone looking for a romantic place to elope or get married. Our stay was everything we hoped for and more, and we will cherish these memories forever.

Autumn in the Treehouse October 2025 We will never forget this magical place! Enchanting, magical, charming, + peaceful treehouse! We arrived for our elopement & could not wait any longer. It was magical & everything we wanted thanks to Greg + Willie. Best sleep we've ever had. Owls hooting in the night and the sound of leaves falling and the cold autumn breeze left us in a trance. All the intricate details of the treehouse were so fun, quirky & charming! We loved our stay here and the warm hospitality of Greg & Willie! The grounds are beautiful for hikes. We opted for the Tree service for breakfast and that alone exceeded our expectations. Willie is such a great cook. The homemade breakfast was superb, especially the homemade maple syrup and delicious Belgian style waffles. Highly recommend! We will return soon. Thank you, Greg + Willie

We had the most incredible stay at Moose Meadow Lodge in Vermont. Greg and Willie are truly exceptional hosts. Warm, welcoming, and so accommodating. They kindly made space for us at short notice when we decided to extend our stay by two extra nights, and nothing was too much trouble. We stayed in their unique treehouse, which was absolutely magical. Every detail was thought of, and the place was impeccably clean and beautifully presented. The locally carved stone sinks were an outstanding and special touch. The lodge grounds are stunning, peaceful, and immaculately maintained, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. Breakfast was gorgeous, we've never had sausages like it! And Willie's unique pancakes are truly delicious, no wonder he managed to make a business of these alone! Greg and Willie made us feel completely at home, and their hospitality really sets Moose Meadow Lodge apart. Two great guys clearly very proud of their home. If you’re looking for a unique, memorable, and genuinely welcoming place to stay near Waitsfield, Vermont (or further, as it's definitely worth travelling for!), don't look anywhere else, we can’t recommend it highly enough! Thank you Greg and Willie, you deserve all your success. Tim and Trudi x

We got married on the at Moose Meadow Lodge and loved it so much we came back for our 10 year reunion. The location is beautiful! The rooms are rustic and lovely and romantic. Willy and Greg are wonderful! When we were there to get married, our rental car didn't come with snow tires and we got the first snow storm of the season during our visit with the heaviest being on our last night. We had left to go to dinner and watch a movie in Stowe, which is when the snow came. My spouse is good with driving in the snow but with summer tires, we got stuck coming back up the hill to the lodge. We called Willie and Greg, and they immediately came and helped us safely park our car and got us back to the lodge. When we visited 10 years later, they were just as welcoming and fun. Breakfasts by Willie are as good as ever. Both experiences have left lasting and happy memories for my spouse and me and we would love to go back and visit!

The room was fabulous, Steam shower, deck overlooking the property and treehouse. Everything was fabulous, we enjoyed the owners and they are so open with using their home as your own. They went out of their way to show you the Treehouse, Pond, the property. Every bit of the property had something peaceful and wonderful to enjoy. I wished we would stay longer. I would have hiked to the top of the property. They have 86 acres. Read more, slept more. The moment we arrived it was magical. They met us at the stairs with a smile and welcoming. Home And new friends. They made you feel like you were their friends and guest like old friends. Great conversation, the history of the property and what they did to make it incredible..

Wow, what an unforgettable experience. Willie and Greg have created a magical oasis in Vermont, and it’s hard to believe they so generously share it with the world. Their Lodge and Treehouse is one of the most beautifully and thoughtfully cared-for places we’ve ever stayed. Every detail radiates the love, intention, and pride they pour into it.||We stayed in the treehouse with our three young kids, and it was perfect. Willie and Greg went above and beyond, setting up cozy cots for the kids, giving us a tour of the pond, bringing out food so the kids could feed the fish, and even taking our little trio (all under eight!) on a mini walk so we could finish packing. They genuinely welcomed our family into their space.||The treehouse itself is a design wonder. Breakfast was another highlight: they asked about our dietary preferences and timing, and what they prepared was absolutely perfect. Kids still ask about the pancakes! They strike the rare balance of being both meticulous and flexible, and it truly felt like a gift to spend time in their orbit.||This is exactly what a bed and breakfast should be: a window into the local area, a chance to know the hosts, and a reminder of how small and joyful the world can feel when people open their hearts and homes.||Thank you, Willie and Greg!

My wife and I hosted welcome drinks & food the night before our wedding at MML. ~80 people attended.||Greg and Willie are amazing! I cannot state how much this was an unexpected highlight of our wedding. The space is incredible (we rented a tent, chairs, and had it catered, while Greg and Willie provided speakers, a porta potty, and INCREDIBLE support). They really went above in beyond, both in creating their magical lodge, accompanying treehouse and the grounds around both, and the day of. ||If you're thinking of hosting an event in the Waterbury area, we couldn't recommend more

I was looking for a unique place which give me sense of vermont and this place is a winner. When we arrived we had such a wonderful and warm welcome. Greg and Willie are in charge and they have built such a place that you feel as if it's your home with no duty. The place is perfect and was everything i looked for. I loved breakfasts with so much love and attention. We were happy to meet all guests for breakfast. Eating and chatting. Special people came and left and lucky for us we came for 3 nights . You'll be absolutely disappointed if you stay there for less. This place gave me such peace in mind and today my relaxing picture is the frog placed at the entry . Exactly what you feel there . That you can breath deeply and be calm. Thank you for a wonderful stay

This is by far my favorite destination when traveling. I can honestly say I've never had a more welcoming and comfortable stay anywhere else. If you are looking for a real Vermont experience, The Moose Meadow Lodge is a great start to the journey. This beautiful home with cabin vibes has brilliant decor and character throughout the property. The amenities are far beyond what you'll find listed, thanks to the selfless owners, Greg and Willie. At the very least, you'll have a very comfortable stay. Greg and Willie will go above and beyond to make sure your overall visit to Vermont is worthwhile. We decided to travel to Vermont last minute for New Year's Eve. We booked the Moose Meadow Lodge on the drive up. We were welcomed with open arms. Greg showed us around the property, the lobby shop, brought us to our room and explained all the unique and exciting details of the house and property. We woke up each morning to a beautifully prepared breakfast. Since our trip was so last minute, we didn't have much of a plan. Greg was kind enough to sit down with us and help us map out our entire journey. He even helped us map an alternate route home that was more scenic. We didn't get to everything on the list, but everything he mentioned was perfect. You can tell he has a genuine love and passion for what he does. His advice and planning alone made the experience excellent. I can go on and on about the perfect stay we had. You can tell Greg and Willie are very passionate about what they do. You will never experience this kind of attention and care at a hotel. We are already planning our next stay here.

Greg and Willie are amazing! The rooms are amazing and I cannot say enough about Willie's Aebleskiver's! Willie uses his own pancake mix which is AMAZING! Breakfasts were amazing! We rented the Mountain View Room, and what a spectacular view! Greg was so gracious and kind. We wanted to hike a little but my mother cannot walk to much. He went out of his way to make her feel included and took her on their golf cart so that she could have the experience of hiking. Beautiful rooms, amazing views, humble and kind owners! I can' t wait to go back!

This was an amazing first stay in Vermont. We were greeted upon arrival and given the lay of the land. The owners were friendly and phenomenal! The breakfast was delicious each day!!! Absolutely loved it here and will be back!

My husband and I "babymooned" through Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont as our last trip before our first baby arrives in April 2019. We ended our trip with a two-night stay at Moose Meadow Lodge, welcomed by Willie at the door. He gave us a tour of their beautiful lodge. I must not have seen every online photo, because I was so surprised by the beauty and luxury of the space--jaw-dropping! We stayed in the Creel Room (and learned what a creel is!) with a view of the property, Treehouse and snow-covered pond. The room is what you get if you mix your typical cabin feel with luxury! It was warm and welcoming with amazing craftsmanship. The steam shower in our room was wonderful to enjoy and large enough for two. We also relaxed in the common areas, snuggled up by the warm log fireplaces. We later met Greg and loved his humor! Both Willie and Greg made us feel as though we were staying with friends. They were genuinely interested in our day and quick to offer recommendations or call restaurants on our behalf for dinner reservations. We also enjoyed meeting the other guests as we crossed paths in the common areas. They, too, were so friendly and didn't hesitate to discuss their travels or chat about our baby on the way. We enjoyed eating breakfast together each morning, swapping stories and sharing our plans for the day. All of Willie's cooking was delicious, but his rice flour and oatmeal pancakes deserve a special call out! My husband and I ended our stay with a morning snowshoe around the property. I love that Willie and Greg offer complimentary snowshoes to enjoy! Carrying this baby bump, we didn't go far. We checked out the pond, Treehouse, and made a small loop back to the Lodge. We would love to return and visit the Sky Loft! We LOVED our stay at Moose Meadow Lodge and have already recommended it to family and friends. We hope to visit again soon! It'd be the perfect spot to stay while leaf-peeping during the Fall, too. Thank you, Willie & Greg!!

My wife, myself, and our Pomeranian Bear came all the way from San Diego, CA to get married at the lodge on July 6, 2000. In fact, we were one of the 1st Civil Unions in VT to do so after it became a law. The Moose Meadow Lodge will always hold one of the most special places in our hearts. Greg & Willie (one of our witnesses :) ) were absolutely amazing, so gracious, and helped to make our day 100% perfect. They love what they do and that is so evident in their hospitality. Their property and lodge is everything you'd hope it would be for a VT mountain escape. We now have a 17 year old daughter and getting back to show her the beauty of not only VT but the lodge itself is high on my list of places to take her. We've been waiting until the perfect age to bring her out and it looks like 2021 (thx for nothing Covid) will be the year. You will not be disappointed by choosing this place for an amazing vacation or wedding. The property and Innkeepers will make your dream vacation that much more amazing. This place is an absolute must when in VT.

Me and my husband stayed here for a few days in February for our babymoon and we can't stop raving about it ! If you're coming to Vermont you have to stay here. The grounds are beautiful - we wish we had more time to explore them. The lodge itself was adorable and so cozy. Our room was super clean and comfortable (we stayed in the creel room). Breakfast in the morning was really delicious and also the owner was fantastic about accommodating dietary restrictions. We didn't have any but we noticed he had options for both gluten free and lactose free diets and I'm sure would have accommodated any other needs. We had the pleasure of meeting Willie and his friend Gerry who was helping out in Greg's absence. They were such friendly and gracious hosts. Willie really makes you feel at home! We enjoyed chatting with them at night before heading to bed. The location is also fantastic- close to Montpellier , Burlington, and Stowe and a few minutes drive into Waterbury town center; so there is plenty to do. We can't wait to return in the future!

Greg and Willie are the hosts extraordinaire! The B&B/Lodge is beautiful, comfortable and packed with amenities. From the hot tub - to the steam showers - to the vast array of hunting trophies. They provide wireless for those who think they need it, a community television and just lovely decks and livingrooms for your total relaxation. Breakfast was generous and delicious! That Willie can fry up some bacon. Their dinner recommendations are a blast and they have wonderful stories to tell if you are interested, otherwise you can trust they'll give you tons of space. The have a ton of land for hiking (up to a spectacular view), a pond for fishing and beautiful fields. In fact Greg is licensed to marry you if you are so inclined. We are so glad we found this spot which is open and friendly to all kind-hearted folks. You must check it out! We totally intend on returning next year.

WHAT. AN. AMAZING. STAY!! Must I say, this lodge is more than a place to stay. It's an experience I'm so blessed to have had. Upon arrival until our departure, Greg and Willie were there when anything is needed or they can be of assistance and yet you are free to roam the lodge as it's your own. I plan to visit multiple times a year and look forward to my adventures on and off the property!

We spent two nights in the treehouse as part of a family vacation and 12th birthday surprise for my son. Sleeping in a treehouse has been on his wish list since he saw a treehouse building TV show when he was around 10 years old. This blew his mind and the rest of us, too. Everything from the gracious hosts, gourmet breakfast overlooking the mountains and the beautiful surrounds and accommodations. No detail was missed and we could not have been happier or more charmed by this unique experience. The bathroom at the treehouse was one of the biggest thrills for us all--the gorgeous stone carved sink was so cool. This is a once in a lifetime experience and we hope to experience more than once! You will not be disappointed.

This place is a little slice of heaven here on earth!! My husband & I were married at the Moose Meadow Lodge on 7-8-18. Willie & Greg are the two most amazing folks you will ever encounter. It is so obvious, that they love what they do, they put everything, heart and soul into making certain that every guest is enjoying their stay! They are super informative about where to go and things to do, but are even willing to sit and chat and relax with a cocktail or two with the guests! They make you feel like family! We just love them! Our wedding was just beautiful and we had full run of the entire lodge and property to do what we wanted. Hubby and I spent the weekend in the tree house while our guests stayed in the lodge. Everything was just perfect! We just returned from MML spending our first wedding anniversary here and had such a peaceful, relaxing stay! The food is always amazing and the weather was just picture perfect! We will be returning year after year, and encourage anyone else who is thinking about it, to jump in! YOU will NOT be disappointed!

Saying that this place is "Highly Recommended" isn't good enough. You just need to go! Just came back today from a 2 night stay in the treehouse for my husband's surprise 30th birthday present. He was soo surprised, and Greg did an awesome job with hiding the treehouse from my huband til last minute. Total relaxation the whole time. Willie did an awesome job with breakfast in the morning. They were both super helpful on pointing us in the right direction for food or activities. I can't say enough great things about this place. It's a must for anyone who loves the outdoors or who just needs to get away. Absolutely loved our stay at Moose Meadow Lodge! Not 1 bad thing to say! If youre considering a stay here, just do it. Don't even question it. You won't regret it.

We wanted to be married in the mountains and the Moose Meadow Lodge was the perfect choice. It is set in a beautiful location and offers luxurious accommodations. The fact that Greg is a Justice of the Peace and they offered a wedding package made it an easy choice. Greg and Willie took care of everything and we instantly felt as if they were longtime friends. The lodge is beautifully decorated and meticulously maintained. The tree house where we stayed is simply amazing. Willie treated us to wonderful, delicious breakfasts while Greg entertained us with his stories of local history. Our experience was perfect in every respect. Greg and Willie are superb hosts. We enthusiastically give this 5-star review!

Well, sadly, we did not get to experience the Lodge (yet!) since when we booked our first stay this is when hurricane Irene hot our state and our roof caved in under the oak trees that fell. Cancelled the trip and booked it for the next year. Next year we've got pets and then realized that lodge is not pet-friendly... I tried to bargain with the owners (I would pay more to have them with us!) but Greg was insisting that no, no pets (good news for all the other no-pet people out there). Since they were too young at the time to board them at a kennel, we had to cancel the trip and got a reimbursement by mail. So, so far my experience with this Inn was good. I am sure it is great, we just don't seem to be able to visit it( Five stars for no-problem refund though.

Five of us stayed at the lodge and tree house for a weekend as an outdoorsy bachelor party 2 weeks before a wedding. Based on the reviews we had read beforehand, we knew it would probably be great. That said, reviews and online photos didn't come close to preparing us for the flawless, tailored experience Greg and Willie work tirelessly to create for each and every guest. The initial tour of the grounds (after a very warm welcome) and personalized hospitality provided by Greg, 5-star worthy breakfast prepared and served every morning by Willie as well as the impeccably kept facilities (both indoors and outdoors) ensured we had an incredibly restful and memorable weekend. We have already recommended staying at the Moose Meadow Lodge to our friends and family in the NYC and Boston areas looking for a world class experience to recharge and "get away from it all", yet still be in close proximity to the fantastic restaurants and attractions in the Waterbury area. Would absolutely return to the lodge the next time I find myself in Vermont. Truly leaps and bounds above the typical bed and breakfast or traditional hotel experience.

If there were 6 stars I'd give Moose Meadow Lodge that rating. AMAZING place! Greg and Willie do an amazing job to make you feel right at home. Every detail is in place. The public areas are spectacular. Everywhere you look are game mounts. Two BIG great rooms each with a fireplace that's always roaring! Lots of great local restaurants and tourist spots, although I could have just stayed at the lodge all day long and enjoyed! The new treehouse is AMAZING! I liked the lodge so much that I've rented the entire place for Labor Day weekend so I can bring friends for an amazing Vermont experience. If you're visiting the Waterbury/Stowe area and you don't stay at Moose Meadow Lodge, you've missed an amazing experience!
