A log cabin open-front shelter built by the GMC around 1940 to replace Professor Monroe's deteriorating 1918 lodge at Montclair Glen. Located 0.2 miles south of the current third lodge, it provided bunks for eight and basic amenities. Plagued by porcupines like its predecessor, it stood only eight years before being replaced by Roy Buchanan's enclosed cabin design in 1948. Its former clearing was later marked by the Allis Trail.
Bromley Lodge was a small wooden lodge built by the Manchester Section of the Green Mountain Club in 1933. Located near a brook in open hardwood forest, it featured bunks for twelve hikers and was considered one of the more comfortable shelters on the southern Long Trail during the interwar period. Popular with trail travelers, it remained in use until the early 1940s before being retired due to evolving trail routes and changing shelter standards. The structure no longer stands.
Worth Mountain Lodge was a 16' x 24' wooden lodge built in 1959 by the Middlebury Mountain Club near Voter-White Shelter to serve skiers in winter and hikers year-round, accommodating approximately 30 people. Featuring double walls and a large stove, the lodge fell into disrepair due to vandalism and improper use despite adoption efforts. After decades of deterioration and structural issues, the club decommissioned it in 2011.
Whitman Lodge is a primitive cabin on the shores of Cedar Meadow Lake in Leicester, Massachusetts, maintained by the Green Mountain Club's Worcester Section since at least 1956. Originally called Cedar Meadow Pond Camp, it was renamed Whitman Lodge in 2010 to honor longtime section president Stanton Whitman, who maintained the facility for over 30 years. The camp serves as a gathering place for section meetings, outings, and community events.
Two rustic rental cabins on Wheeler Pond's shore in Vermont's Northeast Kingdom. Donated to GMC in 2004 by members Chris Hadsel and Bill Mares. Beaver Dam Camp was closed in 2016 when beaver activity raised pond levels, tilting its foundation. A new cabin was rebuilt further from shore to replace it. Both cabins offer mountain views and access to hiking trails.
Watson Camp was a rustic semi-enclosed frame shelter built by GMC in 1980, accommodating approximately 16 hikers near Sterling Pond in the Spruce Peak area. Featured a porch overlooking the pond and operated for over two decades as a popular Long Trail destination. Closed in 2004 due to environmental degradation of Sterling Pond's sensitive alpine ecosystem. Completely dismantled and removed by 2011 through collaborative efforts between GMC and Green Mountain Valley School volunteers.
Tucker Lodge was a large log cabin built in 1937 north of the trail near good water by the GMC. It featured a cobble stone foundation with imitation log siding, interior pine finishing, four large bunks accommodating up to 16 people, and a loft for additional capacity. The lodge deteriorated over time, requiring foundation rebuilding and window repairs by the 1960s. It was burned in 1971 to prevent accidents and misuse.
A small Swiss-style log cabin built in 1924 on General Stark Mountain's ridge as part of the Monroe Skyline trail construction. The compact four-walled structure featured a steeply pitched gabled roof, door, and front porch—unlike typical open-front lean-tos of the era. It accommodated four hikers and offered northward views, though its spring water supply proved unreliable during dry seasons. The lodge deteriorated from the 1940s onward and was abandoned by 1963, replaced in 1966 by the current Theron Dean Shelter.
Log cabin lodge built in 1952 by Burlington Section GMC members to replace a burned predecessor. 24-by-18-foot structure featured open-front porch, semi-enclosed bunkroom for 20 hikers, and loft space. Design minimized fire risk through wooden hatch-windows, no stove, and combined closed/open shelter features. Served Long Trail community for 26 years until destroyed by fire September 25, 1977.
Taylor Lodge 1st was a closed log cabin built by the Burlington Section of the Green Mountain Club in 1926 at Nebraska Notch on Mt. Mansfield's eastern slope. Named to honor GMC founder James P. Taylor, it accommodated 14-16 campers with bunks, a heating stove, and cooking facilities. Unlike later versions, it faced away from the scenic outlook. The lodge served nearly 25 years as a popular Long Trail shelter before being destroyed by fire in December 1950 when careless users burned mattresses for warmth.
Rustic log lodge built in 1950 by the Long Trail Patrol on a scenic cliff above Sterling Pond with Mount Mansfield visible above. It replaced an earlier lodge that burned July 5, 1950. The second lodge accommodated about 8 hikers with bunks and spring water 300 feet away. It burned in spring 1972 and was replaced by a frame lean-to shelter.
