The first real snow fall of the year is here! There is so much snow falling right now that you can’t see Windham Mountain. The snow plows are making sure that the road are clear for safe passage. If you are already in Windham and don’t feel like venturing out onto the roads, we do have a couple of rooms open tonight. Drive safe!
