5 Stars – A Wonderful Stay!
We had a wonderful stay at the Stone Hearth Inn and Eatery. My son had programs at Vermont Academy, and this spot was perfect—close to everything nearby, including a great bar just down the street. The atmosphere was fun and inviting, and the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. Everything about our experience was easy and enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in town!

Wonderful stay!
The Inn was lovely. My grandchildren were welcomed with open arms ages 8 and 10. They loved our stay and asked for us to take them back. Breakfast specials were delicious and the attached restaurant was as well. We’ll be back!!

My husband and I stayed here for a night. Communication was great. Beautiful old inn. The best part was the owners daughter/husband are chefs! Like...gourmet chefs!

This bed and breakfast has lots of charm for an 1800s building. The chefs are graduates of Culinary Institute of America so breakfast was yummy. They also have an attached “eatery” that’s open on weekends. We visited during the week so missed eating dinner there.
