Circa 1824. Ideally located in the Mad River Valley, this historic two-story white clapboard, ten-gabled farmhouse is listed in the National Register and includes a renovated 1870 New England-style post and beam barn. Listen to music by the fireplace in the living room or watch a video in the informal TV Room. Enjoy the relaxed elegance of the guest bedrooms that feature feather beds and antiques. Chef John Lumbra creates dramatic three-course gourmet breakfasts. Make reservations for a sumptuous dinner at the inn. Explore fifteen scenic acres of landscaped lawns with Adirondack furniture, a terraced formal garden and an open field for sledding. Two acres are on the river, offering an excellent swimming hole and boat portage. Direct access to the Trail provides miles of walking and cross-country skiing. After an active day, soak in the outdoor Jacuzzi.

About Our Rooms

The Bennington Room

The Bennington RoomThis second floor bedroom is one of the larger ones, with a lovely sitting area and great antique furnishings. Opposing windows create a wonderful breeze through the room, with views both north and south.

 

The Caladonia Room

The Caladonia RoomThe most sheltered and secluded, this ground floor bedroom boasts a sliding glass door opening onto a lovely patio. There is a small seating area for reading, relaxing or conversation.

 

The Orleans Room

The Orleans RoomThe brightest and sunniest room with pleasant views of the back pasture, this second floor bedroom has an over-size King featherbed and a bath with a skylight, affording an excellent view of the farm next door while you shower.

 

The Washington Room

The Washington RoomThis second floor bedroom is the largest and has a wonderful antique wardrobe. The room is part of the original farmhouse and has a "lazy" window, lots of antiques and a large, comfortable sitting area.

 

The Addison Room

The Addison RoomThis second floor bedroom is one of the coziest. It has great views of the Mad River and the neighboring farm, and has a bed with a beautiful wood headboard topped with a fluffy down featherbed. The large private bath has a walk-in shower.

 

The Chittenden Room

The Chittenden RoomThis second floor bedroom also has a lovely view of the Mad River and the front lawn area. It is furnished with period pieces and has a private bath with tub and shower. Sage painted walls and stained glass windows make it most relaxing.

 

The Franklin Room

The Franklin RoomThis private first floor room is quietly set at the back of the inn. Also, conveniently next to the guest television room, many guests choose to use the TV room as their semi-private seating area. Its view outside is of the kitchen herb garden in the summer, and the dooryard area year-round.

 

The Windham Room

The Windham RoomThis ground floor room is directly adjacent to the parlor, making it ideal for anyone who has trouble with stairs. This room stays coolest in the summer and warmest in winter. It is also the room to first smell the wonderful morning aromas. The view from the window is of the farm and gardens to the north.
