Location
Okemo Mountain
SouthFace Village® rises on 200 private acres on the sunny south face of Okemo. Located in the town of Ludlow in the pastoral mountains of Vermont, Okemo boasts some of the best all-terrain skiing in the region and has been cherished by families in the northeast for generations. Okemo has adventure for every member of your family— from long beginner trails to challenging steeps and glades. And as part of the Vail Resorts family, Okemo will continue to be a celebrated destination of epic proportions.
THE VALLEY
We know the incredible ski mountain is what draws our owners here. But there is much to enjoy off the ski runs as well. This is quintessential Vermont, where hiking, snowshoeing and nordic skiing opportunities abound through the heart of “maple syrup” country. Experience the many sights, sounds, and flavors of neighboring towns like Grafton, Weston, Plymouth, Chester, and so many others. And when the snow melts and temperatures rise, the valley transforms into a summer playground for all. Welcome home!
THE TOWN OF LUDLOW
The quaint village of Ludlow is minutes from the residences at SouthFace. This historic Vermont town mixes shops, galleries, and top-notch dining for every taste and budget. Locally inspired and sourced, the creative pairings and heartwarming comfort foods of Okemo Valley’s innovative restaurants is why Ludlow is fast becoming a year-round foodie destination. Ludlow is the perfect end to a perfect day.
Some of Our Favorite Spots
While skiing is what brings most families to SouthFace Village, insiders know that Southern Vermont serves up endless fun in every season.
Woodstock, Vermont:
Woodstock is the quintessential New England town, with restaurants, art galleries, and small shops to fill an entire day.
Swimming at Buttermilk Falls:
Come summer, this is a must. Five minutes from Okemo. The perfect Vermont “swimming hole” experience. Your kids won’t want to leave.
Vermont Country Store:
Our bet is that you will not be able to go into this store and not buy something. It is a step back in time, but with a selection of everyday products and brands you cannot resist.
Breakfast at the Hatchery:
Start your day where so many of your Ludlow neighbors do. But bring a hearty appetite. You won’t be disappointed.
Snowshoeing in the Vermont woods:
Rent a pair of snowshoes, head down to the Ludlow Reservoir, strap on and take off. “Exhilarating” doesn’t do it justice.
The Wine & Cheese Depot
Offering a carefully curated selection of wines from around the world, and a case of local artisanal cheeses, cured meats, olives and preserves to pair with them.
The Hall Foundation:
The Hall Foundation is a rotating cultural experience that exhibits some of the most exciting contemporary art in settings befitting the Green Mountain state.
