Do you have snow tires? There’s some long steep climbs on Route 4 going up to Killington that might not go well if you don’t.

Brand new all weather tires - toyed with buying chains. We will be overnighting in rutland in a hotel and head to the mountain/resort Sunday. Hoping that is ok…if not other party has 4x4 and we can take turns doing the 20 minutes to the mountain from the hotel

I’ve found all-weathers and AWD to work fine in 99% of Vermont conditions, but there is definitely a limit. Chains are almost never a good idea in VT except for short distances when there is a layer of compacted snow/ice.
