The inn has a lot of charm and history just like the rest of Vermont. The rooms and bathrooms are very clean and spacious. Our bed was very comfortable, and we had plenty of fresh linens throughout our weekend stay. The best perk of your stay with them will definitely be the breakfast and pies. Tim will not let you start your day without a hardy meal and accommodates to any allergies/food restrictions. We strongly suggest you save some room for Tim’s scrumptious pies. We tried the cherry pie and chocolate cream pie and highly recommend both. The location was perfect and central to Sugarbush mountain, restaurants, Lawson’s Brewery, and grocery stores. Very convenient if you’re coming up to the area for winter sports at Mad River and Sugarbush. Last but not least, Rick and Tim are wonderful hosts! They followed all state Covid protocols prior to our arrival and during our stay. They wore masks and socially distanced whenever possible. We can’t wait to stay at the inn again, but in the meantime we will be making the drive from MA...
Read moreI absolutely love the Swanson Inn and I cannot say enough good things about it! Tim and Rick are the most welcoming and attentive hosts. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Tim and Rick cater to all guests but my experience as a thru-hiker was above and beyond anything I have experienced along the AT and LT.
The dinner and breakfast is fantastic and are included as well as laundry and shuttle service. The Inn itself is large, historic, very clean and delightfully relaxing. There are many common areas for sitting, eating, playing games and listening to music via their Alexa speaker system. Each room has a bathroom, fan, AC, Wi-Fi and streaming service. They sell beer, cider and wine. They have a hiker box and hold packages. The property is wonderfully peaceful and has many private sitting areas to enjoy the natural setting. I almost forgot to mention the PIE on weekends!!!!!!! It’s amazing!!!!
Being hikers themselves, Tim and Rick know what hikers need. If you are looking for a place to stop, dry out and rest you couldn’t find a...
Read moreRick and Tim are the best! They are so gracious and inviting. We loved every minute of our stay at the Swanson inn, from our late night check in where Tim met us and showed us to our room, to the day we checked out after a delicious breakfast of home made biscuits and gravy (and some amazing yogurt!). The rooms are very quaint and super clean. The bed was awesome! I got some of the best sleep this year! We overslept breakfast service, but Tim made sure we each got a slice of quiche to-go. This was our first B&B experience, and we loved it. Rick even hung out with us and chatted about the local economy and how things are in Vermont. You won't get that at a chain hotel! The grounds are beautiful, there is a nice pond to sit and enjoy a beer or some of their wonderful pie! There is even a hiking trail within steps of the Swanson. We will definitely stay here again. ...
