Green Mountain House Hostel is located in Manchester, Vermont, just 5 miles west of the Appalachian Trail and Long Trail. In 2008 we opened our home to long distance hikers giving them the opportunity to rest and resupply as they continue along Vermont’s wilderness corridor. Space is limited so call 3 or 4 days in advance to secure a spot. Cell reception is good on most mountain summits in Vermont. Phone: (330) 388-6478.
