Barnes Camp

Historic Barnes Camp
Historic Barnes Camp

The Green Mountain Club partners with Smugglers’ Notch State Park, Stowe Mountain Resort, and Lamoille County Planning Commission to staff the historical Barnes Camp Visitor Center at Smugglers’ Notch during the summer and fall.

Built in 1927, Barnes Camp replaced an older logging camp built by W.M. Barnes that was destroyed by fire. Over the years, this historic structure was used for many purposes including a lodging house for hikers, a ski dormitory, and housing for Green Mountain Club caretakers. In 2014, Barnes Camp underwent a complete renovation and special attention was given to preserving much of the historic charm of this property, including its live edge siding and large, field stone fireplace.

Conveniently located on Route 108 in Stowe, Barnes Camp is now used as a Visitor Center for the Smuggler’s Notch area and a unique rental facility for the public to enjoy.

All rental proceeds help to support the Barnes Camp Visitor Center. Although rental of this property includes exclusive use of the upstairs meeting room, the first floor Visitor’s Center may be open to park visitors during your event.

Room Size:     545 square feet on 2nd Floor

Capacity:        The meeting room has a permit occupancy capacity of 60 people.

Included with the rental fee is:

Barnes Camp Visitor Center & Rental Venue
Barnes Camp Visitor Center & Rental Venue
  • Exclusive use of the upstairs meeting room
  • 2 bathrooms (shared with Park Visitors)
  • Use of utility/break room (Note: water from sinks is untreated rainwater and is not approved as  drinking water.)

Base Rates  for 2017:

  • Rental fee is $100.
  • Fee can be reduced for providing in-kind services. Please inquire about needs.
