Customer Reviews
We truly could not have imagined a more perfect wedding weekend, and so much of that is thanks to Morgan. From the very beginning of the planning process, she was absolutely incredible. Wedding planning can sometimes feel overwhelming—especially when well-meaning family members have lots of opinions—but Morgan always remained calm, poised, and completely professional. She consistently ran everything by Jake and me first, making sure our vision stayed at the center of every decision. Her steady, confident energy made us feel supported and at ease the entire time. The inn itself is a beautiful, boutique gem in Vermont. Having the property privately for the whole weekend was such a gift—most of our guests were able to stay on site, which allowed us to truly celebrate together from start to f
Rooms are described as 'suites' - I think this is a stretch. A suite to me has a separate seating area. On the positive, the bathroom was huge with a whirlpool bath. The patio and garden are lovely.|Breakfast was a little disappointing. It was beautifully presented in a basket but the breakfast sandwiches were past their best.
This place is like out of a dream. The room Was soooooo nice and beyond my expectations. Dinner was amazing and had a vegan option that was delicious. The morning picnic basket, please never stop that. Location can’t be beat. As expected, I could hear ppl upstairs moving and jumping around but they eventually quieted down. In love with this place.
We visited the inn and restaurant in August. Absolutely everything was exceptional. We were traveling with a 9 month old. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The room was spacious and comfortable. We had the best meal either of us has ever had (order the short ribs) at the restaurant. Breakfast in our room was also delicious. Highly recommend.
We stayed one night in the Snowflake room in early November. Room was impressively large as was the bathroom. Gas fireplace in the room added great ambiance. I was worried about the included breakfast being a "breakfast basket" brought to the room but it was incredible. It was so nice to sit in the room and have breakfast in the provided robes. Snowflake room is not a good room for anyone with mobility limitations. The bed was so high it needed steps to get into bed. The tub/shower was a high sided whirlpool tub which was a little difficult getting in/out of.
