I visited the Amee Farm Hostel about 6 miles north of Gifford Woods State Park off VT 100.

It is a brand new barnlike structure, quite impressive. Room for at least 18-20 hikers maybe more. Also caters to LD bikers and skiers (only a few miles from Killington). Work for stay. Farming and greenhouse on premises. Country store nearby.

Kind of close to the Inn at the Long Trail but less expensive if you are on a budget.
