About the employer
The Matterhorn, or simply "The Horn", is a legendary spot in Stowe, Vermont, at 4969 Mountain Road, just minutes from the slopes. For over 70 years it has been the heartbeat of Stowe's social scene, and readers of USA Today voted it the number one après ski bar in North America.
By day it is a relaxed riverside restaurant; by night it becomes Stowe's premier nightclub with live music. The food ranges from wood-fired American pizzas to a sushi bar. As a seasonal student you work in the middle of the action, practise your English and meet people from around the world.

Why Stowe, Vermont?
Stowe is the kind of place people dream about: charming New England villages, covered bridges, waterfalls, and Mount Mansfield – the highest peak in Vermont – right on your doorstep. On your days off you can hike the Long Trail, swim in mountain rivers, bike the Stowe Recreation Path, or tour the famous Ben & Jerry’s factory just down the road. Stay into September and you’ll witness Vermont’s world-famous autumn foliage, when the entire mountainside turns gold, orange and crimson.
Stowe is also perfectly located for weekend adventures – Burlington and Lake Champlain are about an hour away, Montreal is a short trip north, and Boston and New York City are within reach for a longer break.
