Bolton is probably not the best if you’re looking for good skiing/riding that you’re traveling for. Not to mention that the Bolton access road is treacherous. Look into Smuggs it’s probably better bang for your buck and you won’t have to drive around as much for food etc.

Better yet, if you're here for a month, bounce around to a few different places and hotels. And if you have the tires, think about driving to mad river or sugarbush for a day to ski and chill. Have you looked into Jay Peak. Bit out in the middle of nowhere, but maybe that's what you want. Every thought about a day, or a few, in Montreal?

Yeah that's the plan actually. I mapped out all the ski resorts in VT and Bolton looked favorable. It's near the "big" towns people want to go to, and other 5-6 big and small resorts nearby. The plan is to base camp at Bolton, but also go visit Smugs, Sugarbush, Mad River, Cochran's, and Stowe and maybe other further resorts. And maybe pop over to Canada if we feel like it.

The girlfriend actually wants to start out with two weeks, which had crossed my mind as well, so we'll see if we want to extend and try to stay somewhere else in VT after two weeks.
