We really enjoyed our vacation to Stowe and the lodge is most excellent. The room is nice, bathroom is good, fireplace is great, location perfect, etc.
Our advice to future travelers considering the room:
1- yes, the room can fit 4 (I honestly don't know where a blow up mattress would go for a 5th person like the description says), but the queen sofa pullout is very uncomfortable and it was a nightly debate in our family who would have to have to sleep there and who would get the good bed.
2- Bathroom:
Giant soap, body wash, shampoo, and lotion bottles used from guest to guest. There were soap bars provided, but the big bottles in the shower were gross. Recommend bringing your own shampoo and lotion.
3- staying more than a couple nights:
Yes, it is advertised that there is no daily maid service, so no issue there, but keep in mind should you be staying more than a few nights:
We were 4 people and so we were reusing (wet) towels multiple times daily.
While on vacation, you'll be cleaning the room yourself (there is a vacuum cleaner that takes up a big chunk of the hanging space in the armoire), taking out the trash, etc...
This room is quite expensive, so as long as you realize you're paying for the room and the room only, you will be ok. No simple extras from the property manager like other rentals (or even basics. For example, we arrived late at night, everything was closed, and there was not a bottle of water to be had).
