Okemo Mountain Resort AreaThe Okemo resort owners` philosophy is to place guest service and the overall quality of the recreational experience as the top priority. And this philosophy is successfully brought to life in the Okemo mountain resort. Okemo Mountain Vacation Center was initially built to share the love for Vermont skiing 14 years ago, so a four-season vacation service was created. Okemo Mountain Resort is conveniently located in South/Central Vermont in the Village of Ludlow on Route 103 and near Route 100. generally, the resort as a whole includes the Okemo Base Area, the Jackson Gore Base Area, Sugar House Lodge, Solitude Lodge, Learning Center Desk in Okemo and Jackson Gore Base Areas, Rental Center in Okemo and Jackson Gore Base Areas and Mountain Services Center. It is a carefully planned and designed mountain village arranged around one of New England's most delightful ski and snowboard layouts. Here tourists, as well as in many other ski resorts like Hunter mountain for example, can choose ski tracks of practically all levels of difficulty and amateurs - take lessons in skiing. In fact, Ski Magazine readers recently ranked the Okemo resort occupies the fist place in grooming, the second in family programs, and the third in snow. They also said that the Okemo mountain base area might well be the best recent improvement to any ski resort in the East.
Okemo's Cutting Edge Learning Center instructional programs feature a staff of over 400 ski and snowboard teaching professionals with private and group instruction available, so the beginners, as well as amateurs will be guided by experienced professionals. Children's ski programs are also popular in Okemo Resort and include Snow Star Skiers (ages 4-7) and Young Mountain Explorers (ages 7-14). First Tracks and Double Tracks introduction to skiing or snowboarding packages at Okemo offer an affordable lesson, lift ticket and rental equipment package in 1 or 2-day options, so it is hard not to yield to the temptation of fall in love with skiing. As for the advanced skiers we offer cross-country skiing at the Okemo Valley Nordic Center, located only one mile from Okemo Mountain Resort. This centre provides 26km of cross-country trails, 10km of dedicated snowshoe trails and 20km of skating lanes, tree skiing and terrain that winds its way through meadows, lawns and hills.
But Okemo Resort area will of course never obtain a reputation of first class recreation area without a highly developed infrastructure, the main feature of which is condominiums ultimate in value and convenience with all of the amenities of home in a picturesque mountainside location. On-mountain flats (ranging in size from 1 to 5 bedrooms) and homes provide spectacular views of the Black River Valley.
