A Cozy Retreat in Vail Village
Nestled amidst snow-covered peaks, the Havenwood Lodge Lemax offers a welcoming haven for skiers, snowboarders, and sledders. This rustic lodge, introduced in 2023, captures the essence of a mountain retreat, complete with warm lighting and festive decorations.
Design & Features
Dimensions: 17.5 cm (H) x 19.2 cm (W) x 13 cm (D)

- Snow-covered pitched roof and stone chimney for alpine realism

This is a quieter, cozier piece in the Lemax line — one that adds balance to the more whimsical or dramatic village elements while still drawing its own attention.
Collector’s Insight
What makes Havenwood Lodge shine is its versatility. It pairs naturally with anything from ski lifts and mountain trails to festive pubs or tree farms. In my own Vail Village layout, I placed it along a forested hillside with lighted pine trees behind it — it became an instant focal point without overpowering the scene.
Collectors appreciate its classic lodge style and its ability to tie together rustic holiday aesthetics. It’s not a flashy building, but it has presence — and in a well-lit night scene, it absolutely glows.
Ideas for Display
- Mountain Retreat: Combine with ski slopes, snowmobiles, and trail markers to form a winter sports hub.
- Woodland Lodge Scene: Frame with frosted evergreens and seated figurines for a storybook vibe.
- Evening Glow: Use near the center of your village with soft white LEDs to maximize the warm ambiance.
Its symmetrical shape also makes it perfect for front-and-center placements or layering behind more decorative shops and inns.
