Description
Circa 1840. Sitting on two acres with birch trees and perennial gardens this renovated bed and breakfast was built in 1840 and maintains a history full of lore and legend. Furnished and decorated in a sophisticated minimalist style, old pine floors reside comfortably with artwork and heirloom Gibelin tapestries from around the world. Relax by the fire in the living room. Elegant air-conditioned guest bedrooms and a two-bedroom suite feature fine Anichini linens, down comforters and wraparound bath sheets.

The river below the ravine separates the grounds from 55,000 acres of wilderness known as The Chateauguay. Hike the Appalachian Trail.
