As a student in the Hospitality and Resort Management program, you will live and play in the heart of Vermont’s Green Mountains at the newly renovated Castleton Lodge at Killington – your living-learning laboratory.
The Castleton Lodge at Killington is located on the Killington Access Road and is nestled among a variety of businesses – a pizza shop, a coffeehouse, hotels, and more. Home of the former Butternut Inn, the Castleton Lodge at Killington serves as our Hospitality and Resort Management program campus.
In addition to the full-service residence, you will have access to a conference space, computer lab, dining room and food service, laundry facilities, recreation areas, and a fireplace lounge. The lodge is overseen by a live-in general manager, as well as student managers that serve as resident advisers.
Additionally, the Highridge Conference Center, located just five minutes from the Castleton Lodge, will host faculty workspace and a number of classrooms.
