Lots of New Snow!
Wednesday, February 24th, 2010
Great snow!
“Yabba-Dabba-Dooooooooooo!” 12-16 inches of NEW SNOW since yesterday morning and it is still snowing and snowing hard. No kidding, Vermont is really beautiful this time of year! It looks like this will be THE weekend to come to the Mad River Valley and ski Mad River Glen, Sugarbush or do some cross country or snowshoeing at Ole’s or Blueberry Lake. Of course West Hill House is a great place to stay – we’re just a short distance from each of the ski areas. Come enjoy winter with us.
Christmas Carols at West Hill House
Sunday, December 27th, 2009
This Christmas at West Hill House we were delighted to have two musical families staying with us.
Here are Rick & Ben, accompanied by Rick’s daughter Nicole on the pump organ, singing a Carol on Christmas day in the Sun Room, just before dinner.
Thanksgiving

Jerry Carving the Turkey
Gathered around our big dining room table, our guests joined with us and enjoyed a traditional Thanksgiving dinner with turkey and all the trimmings. One of our guests was a professional meat cutter and volunteered to carve the turkey.
The evening was an enjoyable mix of good food, good company, and new friendships.
We also have a special dinner on Christmas Day and a Burns Supper on the Saturday closest to January 25th each year.
Fall Foliage

- Bring on the leaves!
Off to the compost!
What better way to celebrate autumn than to frolic in fall foliage! With huge maple trees surrounding the B&B we get our fair share of leaves on the ground. Many thanks to the couples who took us up on our “Leak Raving” special and joined us in getting our lawns and gardens ready for winter. All our autumn leaves were raked and deposited in the compost and none too soon!
Yesterday morning we awoke to just enough snow on the ground to remind us that the wonderful winter days are just around the corner. It’s not to early to start thinking about reserving a room with us for your winter vacation. Relaxation starts at West Hill House in the Mad River Valley in the Green Mountains of Vermont.

Mozart 1756-91
What marriage was created in 1784, perfected in 1786 and is just as good today as it was then? Give up? Why the Marriage of Figaro! Based on a 1784 play, Mozart created this comic opera which continues to be enjoyed today.
The Marriage of Figaro is coming to the Mad River Valley complete with professional opera singers.
If you adore opera or if you’re not sure about opera, here’s a wonderful opportunity to learn more about opera from the experts in a relaxed yet professional setting. Guests in the Mad River Valley are invited to attend open rehearsals, sit in on master opera classes, and participate in numerous other opera related activities between May 28 and June 21, 2009.
The full fledged opera will be staged on June 19 and 21 and tickets range from $10 -yes $10! to $50.
Check out the line-up of events and the West Hill House website for our special.
