Convention Rate at the Killington Grand
To get the convention rate, you must call the resort directly and ask for the Carnage convention rate when booking. The online reservation system does not offer the convention rate.
While you're on the phone, ask about their condominium options!
PLEASE NOTE: The Killington Grand often fills very quickly. If you are told when you call to reserve a room that they are full make sure to ask about other options including the condos around the Grand.
