Killington, Vermont — One of the under-the-radar changes at Killington Resort with the new ownership is to their dining scene.

Last Friday, Killington Resort opened up the new Ledgewood Yurt. The previous iteration of the lodge was damaged beyond repair last year due to a downed tree from an ice storm. The new facilities feature more space for kitchen staff and guests. The menu features sandwiches, main course dishes, and a few desserts. There’s also an extensive drink menu that want to get their apres on before the lifts close. There’s also a new trail that connects to the yurt (aptly named the Ledgewood Yurt Trail).

The new yurt is open Thursday-Mondays and on peak dates. Reservations aren’t required, but they’re recommended.

Recent Killington Upgrades

Alright, here’s the obligatory section on all the recent changes at Killington Resort. Since being bought by local investors in 2024, the new ownership group has invested $38 million in upgrades. This includes adding over 1,000 new snowguns, the replacement of the Superstar chairlift, new Skyeship gondola cabins, a new barn for those cabins, new snow groomers, and more. At Pico, the big change is the replacement of the Bonanza chairlift with a new magic carpet and the regrading of the beginner area.

Another $22 million is planned for this year. Next up in 2026 is replacing the Jerk Jamaican Mountain Grill with a larger venue and replacing the Snowdon Triple with a new fixed-grip quad chairlift.
