Spruce Peak at Stowe, New England’s only luxury mountain resort community, located in Vermont, completed its highly anticipated $90 million Village Center, revolutionizing the Northeast ski experience. The resort development began in 2003 as a $500 million project, with Stowe Mountain Lodge, the Mountain Cabins and a 21,000-square-foot spa. As of this season, Spruce Peak at Stowe presents a luxurious alpine village with a new 20,000-square-foot adventure center and boutique shops, both centered around a 10,000-square-foot ice-skating rink.

This fall, Spruce Peak will create 18 four-bedroom Village Townhomes, 2,100-square-foot triplex units with direct access to the slopes and an 18-hole golf course. Spruce Peak Reality, the home developer, is accepting reservations for unit selection for the $1.5–2.2 million units.

“When we began this project, we envisioned creating the East’s answer to Deer Valley, Aspen or Beaver Creek,” said Sam Gaines, vice president and director of real estate, Spruce Peak at Stowe. “We knew in order to create this community, we would need to develop world-class facilities and amenities that infuse the community with a sense of luxury not yet seen in this area of Vermont.”

The resort blazes the trail for the amenity-rich vacation homes. The Alpine Clubhouse and Clubhouse Residences feature 19 luxury resort club homes, a private dining facility and a ski club for Spruce Peak residents and local members. The Clubhouse is the only facility of its kind to offer underground slope-side parking, affording members trek-free access to the mountain. The newly opened adventure center houses the Stowe Children’s Ski and Ride school, with dedicated ski lessons. The facility includes a movie screening area, casual dining facility and a climbing gym.

The resort’s new features and luxury real estate add to the existing 21,000-square-foot spa and pool, a 450-seat performance center, a 36-hole golf course and access to the Stowe Mountain Lodge. The amenities offered by Spruce Peak set it apart from other facilities and communities, offering a luxurious experience for all.

Spruce Peak development philosophy is to maintain sustainability and the environment, as shown by being the first mountain resort in the nation to earn the Audubon International Green Community Award. The Village Center is heated and cooled by one of the largest private geothermal systems, comprising 100 wells located under the ski slopes.
