I came up just to ski at Jay Peak and get away for two nights. The surrounding area is beautiful and so is the property itself. The house and property are gorgeous, the rooms are super cozy and the common areas have some great snacks and drinks for people staying there- it's like something out of a Norman Rockwell painting. The included breakfast that I had on the second morning (left too early on the first) was delicious, and the couple who run the place were super friendly and accomodating. They gave me some great recommendations while I was in the area and I loved every minute of my stay there! Highly recommend!

It is alway just a good feeling when someone takes the time to post a positive review. Anger is a great motivator, but reacting to a positive experience isn't usually as strong an emotion. So thanks so much. Very much appreciated.

Thanks Gayle. Actually we have better than average from a below average provider. Now and then our modem kicks off and needs to be rebooted. Had anyone mentioned it to us we could have fixed it in minutes. Otherwise Vermont does indeed sometimes present challenges for the GPS.

Not as expected
Dark unlit room with very little space. Light breakfast. Owner used the frozen waffle bag as an ice pack on her injured dog.
Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023
Response from Brad on 2023/9/1
Not sure how to respond. My wife has no memory of using ice on Grover (who by the way is fine). If she had it would never have been in view of a guest. No frozen waffle bag could have been used as we have never had frozen waffles in the house. All rooms have at LEAST two bedside lamps and a wall lamp plus large windows. In 34 years no one has ever before made such a comment. (look at the room photos and see for yourself). Dozens of past reviews have uniformly raved about our breakfasts.So yes, I am confused, yet sorry this guest was unhappy but simply don't know what we could have done to please him/her

5 night stay
We spent 5 nights at the Inn and it was relaxing and low key. We did some WFH and some vacation days. We met other fabulous guests and had great breakfasts. Jackie had great food recommendations and we loved visiting Burlington and St. Albans. Unfortunately, while the pool was inviting we didn’t get a chance to swim. Maybe next time.

Wish you had asked. If so we could have told you there is one in the top drawer of each dresser. If if in fact there was not one, it means the last guest in that room took it. Thanks.

Cozy, quaint, and just what you're looking for!
Pulling up to the inn, I was truly delighted. With a big grin and a twinkle in my eye, check-in was very easy. The room has everything you need and little extras are all around the property. Foliage room is on the 2nd floor and has a king bed, very comfortable! Breakfast with a few strangers was refreshing (and also delicious). Pets on the property are friendly and sweet.
