Madbush Falls is absolutely worth the stop, a beautiful cascade with surprisingly easy access right off the road, earning a solid four stars for natural beauty and tranquility. It would be a perfect five if the restaurant staff weren't overloaded and there was additional surface area for items.

Need a suitcase valet. Possible need an in-shower mat as concrete can get slippery with soap on it (I did not have a problem but my wife had to put a hand towel down). Still really enjoyed our stay there.

Not the best

We were underwhelmed considering the reviews. Very basic room. No front desk, so no interaction with staff. Self check in. Very pricy, all considered.

Madbush lodge is a good choice

The lodge was clean modern (with a classic furnishings twist), comfortable and very convenient. In room heat controls were a plus as were both interior and exterior doorways that made it very convenient to go out to ski daily. The popular onsite restaurant and bar were also nice to have…. The only minor thing missing was a tv…

Ski Trip

The stay was great!! I travelled down from skiing Jay Peak all day. The jacuzzi tub was wonderful and the bed was extraordinarily comfortable. The walls were a little thin I did hear another guest and their crying child not having it. But that was the least of my concern. It was cozy, comfy, and warm. The coffee could have been better. They did advertise milk and creamer and there was none.

We stayed only one night, though, eager to return! Madbush Falls totally impressed us … rooms are hip, spacious, comfortable and well-equipped especially unique was the in-room beverage station (pour over coffee was awesome). The restaurant was hopping upon arrival and as soon as the GM knew we were guests he made sure we got a table. Menu was creative and absolutely delicious. Wishing we could have stayed for Sunday Brunch & Bluegrass music, and we will absolutely take advantage of a plunge in the falls next time. Sounds like the property is seeking to expand their offerings, which are already exceptional and satisfyingly eclectic. This is an authentic upscale base camp for biking, hiking, leaf peeping and of course ski season.
