Schoolhouse belongs to a sister group, Schoolhouse Inc. It was bought in 1960 with funds from its members, mostly also Sub Siggers. It is convenient for outings and skiing in northern Vermont and is located 5 miles SW of Montpelier, VT. The general set-up is similar to the Sub Sig Cabin, but it has room for about 30 people. There is plenty of parking space.
The prime Vermont ski areas of Mt. Mansfield, Mad River, Sugarbush and Bolton Valley are all within 45 minutes driving distance. Cross-country areas at Stowe are very extensive and interconnected: Trapp Family, Mansfield, Top Notch and Edson Hill. Other good XC areas are within reach: Craftsbury Common, and at Sugarbush, Mad River and also at Bolton. Interesting XC trips can be made right out of the front door on old farm roads.
In the summer, the Schoolhouse
is a good base for hiking in the Green Mountains, especially Camel's Hump
or Mansfield, also for bicycling in the Lake Champlain region. Swimming is
available at Waterbury Reservoir and other areas.
On trips all those not
already members, become temporary members for the duration of the trip.
