During our trip to @vegas we decided to give one buffet a try though generally we’re not but buffet people. After much research, we decided to try The Buffet at @wynnlasvegas for lunch. These are just a few shots of some of the food and ambiance. We took our time, sat and talked about our adventures at the Grand Canyon in order to make the most out of our time. We wanted our kids to have experienced a Vegas buffet and we truly enjoyed this one. Did we get our monies worth? Probably not! We’re just not huge eaters at one time. We did enjoy the diversity of the food at this buffet and the service was excellent. Open daily with brunch served from 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and dinner service from 3:30 to 9:30 p.m. Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. breakfast is available for $19.99 or $9.99 for children ages 3 to 8. Lunch during the week from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. costs $25.99 for adults and $12.99 for children. Dinner, which runs daily from 3:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., is $38.99 for adults and $18.99 for children on weekdays, with a one dollar price jump on the weekends. Brunch, available Saturday and Sunday, runs from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and the price of admission is $31.99 for adults or $15.99 for children. The VIP package, which places you at the front of the line, is available for an additional $12.00. Included in the package is a complimentary glass of Champagne, Mimosa, or Bloody Mary. There is also the option for bottomless Champagne, Mimosas, or Bloody Marys for another $12.00. Pro tip: get there as early as possible for brunch and be prepared to wait unless you’re willing to pay the per person VIP charge. This frugal mami passed on that. We faster until we ate brunch here after spending a few hours at The Avenger Experience down the street. #vegas #vegaswithkids #vegasbuffet #familytravel #travelwithkids #vegasfoodies #familyfriendlytravel (at The Buffet At Wynn) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvjQL3VFD7v/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1i978inram8kw

When you have lots of work and housework on a day that is definitely a "stay in bed and read a book" kind of day you dream of days gone by.

This was Lisa's first time swimming in an infinity pool (or any pool that wasn't inflatable for that matter). She was very brave and swam right over to the edge to peer down on the streets of Bangkok far below. "Look!" she said, "they're stuck in traffic!" I kid you not. She is her father's daughter. .

Summer Family Fun at Smugglers’ Notch Resort

Our family (6 - 2 adults and 4 kids ages 12, 10, 7 and 5) spent 5 days and 4 nights in a 3-bedroom – 2.5 bath condo in Owls 6 during the summer season and loved our time at Smugglers’ Notch Resort in Jeffersonville, VT. I highly recommend the bigger and newer units in the North Hill Community. Ours was massive and easily accommodated our large family which provided a much better experience than prior cramped sleep situations in regular hotels. We could’ve easily had grandparents join us and still had extra space.

The views, sounds and smells scream “summer in Vermont!” @smugglersnotchvt #smuggslove #smugglersnotch #hosted #vt #vermont #summervibes #newengland #nature #4kidstravel #intentionaltravel #mountains #art #teachingkids #familytravel #blackmomsblog #blackfamilytravel #4kidstravel #diversifyoutdoors

A post shared by Ruth - 4kidstravel (@havekiddoswilltravel) on Jul 28, 2018 at 7:55am PDT

 Pin for later:

Why Smuggs: Smugglers’ Notch is widely known as a family friendly ski resort, but we wanted to experience everything that Smugglers’ and the surrounding area had to offer in the summer months.

Pro tip: When traveling with young children, I highly recommend exploring a ski resort in the off season, as it provides a unique opportunity to get acquainted with the set-up, layout and kid friendly offerings during milder weather.

What we did:

Smugglers offers a 43-page Resort Information Guide which details the myriad of free and fee-based activities available for families to take part in. There’s a daily schedule, as well as camp offerings that help to keep families engaged (see more details below).

Check out the Vlog(s) at the end of this post for more pictures and videos of our time at Smuggs. 

What we loved:

-          Our condo: the kids actually argued about whether it was a condo, hotel room or a lodge. It was huge and provided a perfect base for our family to enjoy the resort and the surrounding areas.

-          Our kids loved the opportunity to try out mountain biking and I’m sure that this will become a new family favorite activity.

-          The variety of swimming options and slides with very limited lines was a huge hit with my water loving children.

-          Our youngest loved the various transportation options on the mountain. He loved taking the shuttle, the golf cart or just watching the lifts being serviced.

Variety of swimming options:

-          There are 8 heated pools and 4 water slides in addition to Bootleggers’ Basin and Rum Runners’ Hideaway - offering natural mountain reservoir swimming areas. My kids loved the fact that the pools are actually heated at a comfortable temperature allowing us to take advantage of the late pool hours at the Mountainside Water Playground and Court-side Pool & Hot Tubs.

Click here for more live trip report pictures from our trip.

Pro tip: The Court-side Pool was one of our favorite places to watch the sunset from. Don’t forget to pack beach towels for your family.  You will need them for the pools, reservoirs and for camp. You can take advantage of the washer and dryer in your unit.

Off-Road Segrides:

-          Kid 1 and my husband enjoyed a 60-minute guided Segway XT all terrain tour through the rugged woods on Smugglers’ property. Their guide, Bruce was amazing and made the experience enjoyable for our nervous  and usually overly cautious daughter. Kids must be 12 & older to participate.

French Gourmet Winery Experience: our kids took part in 2 days of camp at Smuggs and on one of these days, my husband and I drove to The Boyden Valley Winery and enjoyed a French Gourmet Experience. We took a tour of the farm, wine tasting and enjoyed a glass of wine and a cheese board while taking in the amazing views of the farm, vineyard and the Green Mountains beyond.

Village Recreation Area:

-          Our family loved the sand volleyball court, basketball court, shuffleboard, horseshoes and Gaga Pit - are located next to the main parking lot. Balls are available in the box near Teen Alley.

Mountain Biking:

Smuggs offers a variety of Mountain Bike Options at the Mountain Bike Center & Bike Shop which is open from 10:00 M – 5:00 pm.  Our family took advantage of the Mountain Bike Open Park (kids 3 and older) which provided an opportunity to try a mountain bike for the first time (20 minutes free). The kids and my husband got to try their balance and handling skills in the flatland park area and then take the wonder carpet conveyor lift to try out the downhill skills park. We highly recommend taking advantage of this free preview.

Skate Park: 

My husband and oldest son took advantage of the some 1 on 1 time and practiced their tricks at the Smuggs Skate Park which is located just down the hill from the Mountain Bike Center. The skate park is designed with both the experienced and beginner skater in mind. There’s a quarter pipe, ramps and rails. We brought our own skate boards, helmet and pads, but you can also rent at the 3 mountain Equipment Center.

Fun Zone 2.0:  Is a 26,000 square ft indoor playground perfect for rainy days or taking a break from the sun. We took advantage of mainly the 2nd floor activities located in The Ozone (included in our Smuggs Pass). My husband and oldest son did the warrior course once located in The Go Zone (1st floor) which cost $5 per person. Also located in the Fun Zone 2.0 area: Laser Tag, Arcade, Refuel Café and miniature golf.

Smuggs Pass:

Fee based activities and facilities such as massage, disc golf course, canoe trips and specialty camps are additional and not covered by the Smuggs Pass.

Kids Club: A separate blog post will be published soon dedicated to our kids’ experiences at the Smugglers’ kids club.

Where we ate:

-          We cooked most of our meals in our fully stocked condo kitchen, but did venture out a few times and to the following local restaurants:

-          Brewster River Pub and Brewery – Jeffersonville - We had dinner here almost every night. Try the Ode to Pittsburgh.

-          Ben & Jerry’s – Smugglers’ Village

-          Piecasso Pizzeria and Lodge - Stowe

-          The Von Trapp Lodge – Stowe

-          Cliff House – Gondola ride from Stowe Lodge

Things we did near Smugglers’ Notch:

-          Climbed boulders and explored Smugglers’ Notch State Park

-          Watched rock climbers practicing their skills at Smugglers’ Notch State Park

-          Explored the various covered bridges located near Jeffersonville

-          Took a drive to The Von Trapp Lodge and enjoyed the views

-          Took a Gondola ride to the top of Mount Mansfield – The Gondola from the parking lot to Stow Lodge is also fun and it’s free

-          Enjoyed the playgrounds at Stowe Lodge

Pro tips for first time visitors:

-          Pack beach towels

-          Our unit in Owls did not have an elevator. Keep that in mind and request a low unit if traveling with anyone with mobility concerns.

-          Bring bikes, skateboards or scooters (helmets and pads)

-          Bring non-perishable food from home and stop by Shaws when you first get off of I-89 and buy perishables

-          Park less clothing and use the washer and dryer

-          Pack layers: sweater and rain jackets

-          Pack insect repellent and sunblock

-          Pack sneakers, hiking shoes and water shoes

-          Bring a small back pack and water bottle for each child for camp

-          Pack a hat for each family member

-          Spend some time reviewing the activities calendar online prior to your trip

-          Check out is early (10 AM), so plan accordingly the night before checking out.

-          Take advantage of the kids’ camp for at least one day of your trip. Our kids loved it and it allowed us adults to enjoy some of the adult activities in the area.

Getting there:

-          Smugglers’ Notch Resort is located in Jeffersonville, VT at the base of Madonna Mountain and 4 hours and 15 minutes from our home in Central Connecticut.

Location:

-          Smugglers' Notch, a year round mountain vacation resort on 3,000 acres, is located 30 miles east of the Burlington International Airport and five miles south of Jeffersonville on Route 108. The Resort is easily reached from Boston (225 miles), New York City (342 miles), and Montreal (91 miles).

When we visited:

-          Summer programs available from mid-June through early September

Plus, exclusive use of the Owls Parliament Lodge with an outdoor heated pool, sauna, weight room and recreational game room. These homes are available for rental year-round.

In Fall, the North Hill Community offers spectacular views. The hills are ablaze with brilliant autumn colors. The community offers a children's playground, nearby tennis courts, views of Smugglers' Notch Pass, plus you are just a short walk to disc golf, hiking trails and more!

In Winter, the North Hill Community takes on its character through its location adjacent to 34 km of cross-country ski trails and 24 km of snowshoe trails, which are also great for hiking and walking during the Summer and Fall seasons. In the Winter, your family is just a 3-minute walk from SmuggsCentral and a short, on-demand, in-Resort shuttle ride to The Village Center. For alpine skiing, hop on the on-demand, Resort shuttle (the fastest way to get to the upper mountains from anywhere in the Resort!) and within a few short minutes it will whisk you directly to the upper mountains for some of the best skiing and riding you'll ever experience. In Summer, the North Hill Community offers two tennis courts and a huge, children's outdoor playground with adjacent sand volleyball court, or you are just a 3-minute walk to the Tennis Center where there are 10 additional courts, Disc Golf Course, and Courtside Pool with Flume Waterslide. If you prefer, you can use the on-demand shuttle to reach any location within the Resort.

Families visiting Smugglers' find fun activities to enjoy together from 10:00 am to about 7:00 pm daily. Many of these activities are package inclusions, like an agility dog demo, sock puppet making, family nature walks, creature feature with a naturalist, giant lawn games, sing-alongs, and arts and crafts.
