When we booked the Summit Lodge for our wedding, we had no idea just how perfect it would be. Our top priority for our wedding was to have a venue where we could spend the whole we...
ekend with our friends and family. The Summit provided this and more. Everything ran seamlessly, from our rehearsal dinner on Friday to the Sunday breakfast. So many of our guests commented on how beautiful the place was and how kind and helpful the staff were. Emmett and Angie answered all of our questions every step of the way as we planned our wedding weekend. Once we arrived that weekend, they took over everything so we could be in the moment and enjoy. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate our marriage with our friends and family.

We got married at the Summit Lodge in Killington, Vermont this past August, and it truly could not have been more perfect. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful—tucked in the mo...
untains with gorgeous views and such a warm, welcoming atmosphere. One of the most unique and amazing parts was being able to have the entire property to ourselves for four days. It made the whole experience feel relaxed, intimate, and so special for us and our guests. From the welcome gathering to the wedding day and everything in between, it felt like our own private mountain retreat.
Angela, the coordinator, was incredible to work with and made the entire process feel seamless. She went above and beyond to make sure every detail came together perfectly. Her support staff, especially Brigitte, were equally amazing—so helpful, organized, and genuinely kind throughout the entire weekend. They made us feel completely taken care of and allowed us to truly enjoy every moment.
The owner, Emmett, was also fantastic and offered so much helpful advice along the way. It was clear how much he cares about the experience couples and their guests have there. Our friends and family are still talking about how beautiful the venue was and how smoothly everything ran—so many people have told us it was their favorite wedding they’ve ever been to. We couldn’t recommend this venue more highly.
We also highly recommend asking about RambleTree, one of their partnered bands that plays Irish music during the winter months, for a late-night set. It was one of the highlights of our wedding and really added to the Irish charm of the whole celebration.

The Summit Lodge was an incredible venue for our wedding and I could not be any happier that we chose it for our special day. I kept saying to people all night that the venue was ...
continuously exceeding my expectations and everyone agreed! Angela (the general manager) and Emmet (the owner) were so friendly and accommodating from the moment we chose the Summit Lodge as our venue. They were incredible helpful during the planning process and helped the day go smoothly on the day of the wedding. Our guests absolutely loved staying at the Summit Lodge and it had everything that we were looking for in a wedding venue. Plenty of room for most of our guests to stay at, amazing location right in the heart of Killington, tons of outdoor space with pools and lawn to spread out on, a full Irish pub in the basement to keep the party going long into the night, and incredible staff that were so accommodating and who seemed to be having as much fun as we were. If you are looking for an adult summer camp, perfect Vermont wedding, this is the place to pick!

azing staff and it truly couldn’t be beat. Having the venue to ourselves gave us enormous leeway to add personal touches, and being able to get all the decorating and set up done days in advance of the wedding really helped us relax and enjoy the weekend with our guests. And there is so much to enjoy-pools and hot tub, lawn games, firepit, and tons to do in the surrounding area in any season. We heard from numerous guests that it was the best wedding they’ve been to, and people were already starting to plan return trips to stay at the lodge during ski season. Thank you Summit Lodge team for giving us the most amazing wedding weekend. We will treasure it always.

ception our event went off seamlessly and perfect!
Upon our arrival on Wednesday we we were welcomed with a relaxing evening by the fire in the family room. Throughout the weekend the arrival experience for our guest was attentive and friendly.
Friday as we set up the room the Summit staff was there for suggestions and help but gave us the room for creativeness to set up our decorations.
Emmitt and his staff worked closely with us on the planning, timelines and itinerary. His communications and organization gave us the ability to relax and enjoy our weekend!
Throughout the weekend the food was incredible. We had a BBQ for our guest on Friday night, and our favorite foods throughout Cocktail Hour. The Summit delivered delicious quality food everyone was pleased with.
We are so happy to have chosen The Summit for our Wedding! We felt like family the moment we walked in until the bittersweet departure.

Summit Lodge could not have been more perfect for our wedding weekend (October 2nd, 2021). Having originally met on a ski club trip in Vermont, my now husband and I knew we wanted ...
to be married around Killington. When we found Summit Lodge we knew it was just what we were looking for – a rustic charm, plenty of rooms for our guests, a large dining room, beautiful views, so many amenities and in our wedding budget. Summit is consistently making upgrades and improvements to the property while maintaining its charm. We loved that Summit is only open to the couple and their wedding guests beginning the Wednesday before the wedding. This allowed us so much time to set up and meet with the staff to work through all details and questions for the wedding day. The staff was beyond helpful from making sure we had drinks and food to helping us hang lights in the reception room. Even with a smaller than typical staff we would never have known, everything was seamless and professional. All of our guests loved having the hot tub, pool, sauna, piano, fire places and outdoor games to enjoy on the property. With rain in the forecast for the day of the wedding Emmett and Angie reassured us that there was a rain backup but not to worry. The staff waited to put our chairs out on the lawn but we were blessed to have only overcast skies with no rain by the time our ceremony began. The staff all communicated with each other so well and knew exactly where to be to make sure everything ran smooth. I cannot thank this entire staff enough for such an incredible wedding weekend. All of our family and friends had such a great time and couldn’t say enough good things about the staff. Emmett, Angie, Bri, Chuck, Dave, Anna, Brooke, Dana – thank you so much!! Highly recommend Summit Lodge whether it’s for a regular stay in Killington or for a special event!

I don't even know where to begin about the Summit Lodge. Emmett and his team made our wedding weekend (yes, "weekend" because you have the whole lodge to yourself all weekend!) abs...
olutely incredible and we can't stop talking about it weeks later! If you're looking for a quintessential Vermont lodge with mountains in the background, greenery and flowers everywhere you look, and a beautiful indoor/outdoor reception filled with a wrap-around bar overlooking the deck and pool, yard games and Irish pub with pool table, this is the venue you need. From the very first visit to the day after our wedding, Emmett and his team were responsive, kind, go-with-the-flow, professional and made our dream wedding come true. The food was also absolutely delicious!
Emmett said that we had the biggest wedding the Summit Lodge has seen to date (~190 guests) and we never would have known. His team served all of our needs without a hiccup and we're still getting texts/calls from guests saying how wonderful everyone was!
The best part of the night was heading downstairs to O'Dwyer's Pub for the after party where we had late night snacks and shot-skis. Once everyone was over-tired and ready for bed, our guests had a short walk right upstairs to stay in their adorable rooms right there at the Summit Lodge.
I could go on and on about this place but you'll have to see it for yourself because pictures do not do it justice! It was the best weekend of our lives and it was all thanks to the Summit Lodge!

The months fly by after your married... My husband and I were married at The Summit in July , it was the perfect place for us. Our ideal wedding venue was somewhere that everyone ...
could stay together and could feel at home. The Summit provided us with just that. Aside from the venue itself, which feels like it's tucked away in the mountains even though it has fast access to the main road, the lodge has cozy rooms, great yard games, pool, and outdoor area. This does not even touch the staff at the hotel who made our guests and us feel at home. Emmett and Jessica did nothing less than go above and beyond leading up to and on our big day. Planning a wedding can be so much and they just made everything feel effortless - as well as keeping our night flowing and without hiccup. They truly were so great to work with and genuine. All of our guests had nothing but good things to say about their stay, our night and we couldn't stop hearing about the breakfast included! (It was pretty delicious). I'm sure without this place and these people our big day would not have been as special or as memorable as it was. We can't recommend it enough. Thanks so much for everything! Love - The Whites!
