Okemo Mountain Resort

Okemo Ludlow VT Vacation Lodging Dining & Rentals

okemologoWelcome to Okemo, pronounced (OH-KEY-MO). This South Central Vermont Ski Resort just keeps getting better. Okemo was once a small community-run ski hill. Tim and Diane Mueller purchased the ski area in 1982 and transformed it into a popular four-season resort. Okemo was recently sold to  Vail Resorts, Inc.

Recent snowmaking improvements and new construction have made Okemo a four-season destination. Jackson Lodge at Okemo offers luxury accommodations right on the mountain and several other Inns and Resorts are located nearby. Okemo Mountain operates The Zipper Mountain Slide – part of the resort’s summer activities. Okemo Mountain Resort began with a formation of local businessmen in 1955 and began operation in 1956.

Okemo Mountain is located in Ludlow, nearby is Cavendish and about 25 miles northwest is Rutland.

The base of Okemo Mountain stands at 1,144 feet (346 m) above sea level, and the Okemo summit is 3,344 feet (1,019 m), with a vertical drop of more than 2,200 feet – the largest vertical drop in southern Vermont!  Share your Okemo Vermont area business with Vermont Living, contact us.

Providing the finest quality snow experience possible is a top priority. To ensure consistently good snow conditions all season long, Okemo has increased its snowmaking firepower yet again. Various pipe replacements and system enhancements will result in more energy-efficient and dependable snowmaking. A brand-new Bombardier BR grooming machine has been added to the fleet.



Okemo Mountain has a summit elevation of 3,344′ and a vertical drop of 2,200′ – the highest in southern Vermont, with 33% novice terrain, 42% more difficult terrain, 25% most difficult terrain.  Gladed trails at Jackson Gore include the 3,200-foot long “Supernova” and 1,500-foot long “Black Hole.” Steep, undulating, and loaded with excitement, these new glades will provide nearly 10 acres of “au natural” tree skiing to challenge any expert. The new glades are located off Tuckered Out and Upper Limelight.
