Inn At Iron Masters

Our bicycle tour group stayed at Iron Masters for a night. What a great experience! Innkeeper Eileen could not have been more helpful, accommodating and kind. She joined us for our picnic supper outside and shared a lot of great information about the area with our riders, which they enjoyed very much. ||The location is peaceful and quiet with lots of grass and trees. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. Really, this is an ideal spot for group travelers.

Love, love, love this place! Super clean! Very quiet place with no road noise and friendly inn keepers! The grounds are kept up nicely and they even have a full size ice machine. The rooms and bathrooms have been remodeled. |We would stay here again!

Great accommodations! The room was extremely clean and very comfortable. The experience was perfect from reservations to checkout. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Convenient location with several good restaurants in close proximity. We will definitely stay at the Iron Masters again.

Very nice small and homey inn. Staff was very attentive and the beds were SUPER comfortable. Walkable to all that Lakeville has to offer. The lobby is in the process of being updated. The innkeeper explained his plans and it sounds like it will be fantastic once finished.

Staff is very pleasant! Looks to be updated recently! Beds and pillows are extremely comfortable! Everything was very clean! Mini fridge, keurig, and big screen TV were nice! Perfect 3 day retreat for my dog and I! Would highly recommend! If you’re out this way for skiing/hiking!!

I've been visiting this area for decades but my first stay at Iron Masters. Very nice accomidations. Did not have much interaction with staff, it was basically self check-in for me

Great place to stay, especially if you are visiting Lime Rock Park. The family that owns/operates the inn is friendly and accomodating. The rooms are perfectly fine and the value is excellent compared to other options in the area.

I don't like writing reviews and this is only my second one - BUT felt compelled to do so. I have stayed at the Iron Masters prior to new owner and it was barely ok. The new owner has transformed the Inn to a new standard. The rooms have been remodeled, look great, new beds, pillows, furniture - it is amazing. What stood out the most is it's super clean, the bed was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in, pillows were awesome. I can't wait to go back. The new owner is very welcoming and personable.|He did things the right way, didn't cut any corners. Thank you!!!!

I had driven 11 hours through New York traffic and wanted nothing but to relax. I got to the Inn and my room was already cooled down, the room was immaculate and I had the fastest check in ever. I travel a lot for work but this was the BEST experience I have had yet. Bravo Inn on Main!

We spent another super weekend at the Inn. It's now called the Iron Masters Inn on Main and Rory, the owner couldn't be nicer. The rooms have been totally redone with nice floors and super comfortable beds. Ours was the king sized bed and was by far the most comfortable bed I'd ever slept in. Our party of 6 came home after dinner and Rory built a fire for us in the large gathering room with its huge fireplace. This Inn is a gem of a place. If you come up to this part of the state for any winter or summer activities and need accommodations put the Iron Masters Inn on Main on your short list of places to stay. It's worth every penny.

outside looks like a motel, but inside is fine. The room is cosy and quiet. They don't a lot options during breakfast

My family recently stayed at the Iron Masters for a family gathering and the owner couldn't have been more warm and welcoming to all of us. The rooms have been renovated with such a nice touch. Beds were very comfortable and the sheets and towels were great quality. We look forward to returning!!

B-E-D B-U-G-S!!!!! BEDBUGS! Checked in late (around 1am) after filming a wedding in the next town over. Tried multiple times to call the Inn to see in which room I was staying but no one ever picked up. I pulled up late to the Inn and to a handwritten sign on the lobby window that has my name and room number. Walk over to my room and the door is open from the outside. Not locked. Not only was I not comfortable having the Inn publicly display which room I am staying on their window, it's pretty shady that the room was not locked and that they left the key inside. Ever hear of a lock-box? Upon entering the entire room smelled like baby wipes. The wallpaper was completely out-dated. The bed sheets were stale and when climbing in to bed the headboard fell off! In the morning while getting into the shower the maid WALKS IN and see's me naked. This is 20 minutes before I have to check out. They call your room relentlessly the second it's checkout time. Icing on the cake? Bedbugs. The day of checkout I noticed red bumps all over my arm, back, feet, and legs. Went to the doctor and sure enough he said they were bedbugs. I am paying $280/night for bedbugs. This is unacceptable and disgusting. Do not ever stay here.

I so want to give this place a good review because it was a lifesaver for us and just what we needed. Which was a simple, reasonable, unfussy motel room for three weeknights in the middle of September in an area that has almost exclusively upscale B&B's. And that's the hitch: the main thing about the Inn at Iron Masters is that it isn't really an inn -- it's a motel (which I found out in advance by looking at a review on TripAdvisor, I think). It has some "inn-like" touches here and there -- a little sitting room in the lobby, pretty wallpaper, wood furniture -- but it's basically a drive-up-to-your-room motel. The pros: clean, free wi-fi (make sure you ask for a room near the wifi for a strong signal), professional, friendly front-desk person, less expensive than most other accommodations in the area. If you're looking for a place to sleep, this place will work just fine. Random detail: very soft towels - nice! It's a good location, and there is an upscale restaurant right next to it. The cons: Like I said, it's not an inn, and if that's what you were expecting, I think you will be disappointed. The continental breakfast is totally functional, but not inspired -- nothing remotely homemade, but plenty of OJ, good coffee, a variety of cereal (including Kashi!), english muffins and toaster-waffles, etc. to put in the toaster. The beds were OK (I didn't wake up with a sore back), but not very firm. So -- for what it is, it's fine. But I wouldn't call it a "boutique country inn," which is how they describe it on the website.

I grew up in this town and this motel was always a source of low budget type run down places, but I recently stayed here and was pleasantly surprised. The staff is helpful. The rooms are clean. The continental breakfast is excellent. The place is in a good location and they now have a good mexican restaurant in the parking lot that is nice for close convenient fare. There are gazebos of which I used to read and enjoy the sounds of the nw corner and the Lobby is full of information on the area. The price is reasonable, which is makes for a great option to the few other choices in the area. I would stay again.

Friends were hosting a party at their home that didn't have room for the guests to stay the night. We looked for a place closer to their house and this was our second choice, but it worked out great! Definitely more of an 'upscale motel' as others have described. Family-run with lots of well thought out needs covered: a comfortable lobby area with tons of magazines, fridge, coffee etc in the room, a good basic breakfast spread. Clean, spacious and very comfortable rooms. We were 3 adults and 2 toddlers so we stayed in a room with 2 Queen beds, brought 2 portable cribs and there was lots of room to spare. Our friends will be recommending it to other visitors I'm sure!

This is a roadside motel with high-end Inn prices, really ; $200 per night? And, if that wasn't bad enough the stench of the room was overpowering (it smelled like it had recently been disinfected; like stepping into a hospital).

I had an excellent quiet stay. Just to be clear this is a small upscale motel. Park right outside your room no amenities, but it was pleasant, clean and very convenient.

I had my friend's wedding last weekend and unfortunately there were no available rooms at the Wake Robin Inn, and the Interlaken Inn was $300/night, with a 2 night minimum. $248 for a room at the Inn at Iron Masters was much more than I was looking to spend for what it had to offer but there didn't seem to be a more cost effective option within close proximity to the wedding. Well, I shouldn't have been so quick to assume a hotel room would have been better than none, sleeping in our car would have proved to have been the better option. The front desk personnel wasn't the least bit welcoming or friendly. We had checked in just prior to heading out for a wedding and by the end of the wedding we came into the room just looking to go to sleep. It wasn't until we awoke, turned on the lights and attempted to use anything in the room did I realize how unbelievably filthy the room was. I was first awoke by a drippy faucet in the shower and when I peered behind the shower curtain I came to find still water sitting in the bottom of the tub. If it wasn't for a long drive home on a hot summer day, I would have skipped taking the shower because it pained me to use a shower that had still water. After my shower, I decided to make a quick cup of coffee before heading out. All the lights weren't on in the room when I attempted to reach for the packet of coffee grounds nestled next to the coffeemaker, however, my hand was met by a vast amount of cobwebs and spider webs. I turned on the room lights and was beside myself, a huge buildup of spider webs and cobwebs covering something you are meant to drink is quite disconcerting, was as if no one had used or more importantly cleaned around the coffeemaker in months as I don't know how else that would be possible. I mentioned to my wedding date I was missing an earring and he quickly thought he spot it on the rug, my enthusiasm that the earing had been recovered so quickly was met with disgust as I quickly realized it was a gold vitamin/pill which had been left behind by a past guest - quite an excellent vacuum job done in our room as there were also trident gum wrappers left by the fridge. At this point, we grabbed all our things as my skin felt like a family of spiders may emerge from the web, never mind the thoughts I began to have regarding the unlikely cleanliness of the rug and bed sheets. We made our way to the front desk, which was an even more enjoyable experience than the day before as the woman looked miserable, not sure she could have forced a smile if we had made a joke. Perhaps her lack of enthusiasm or desire to be friendly was due to always being met with unhappy customers because she didn't seem surprised, concerned or the least bit sympathetic to our how unhappy we were with our stay. We explained still water in the shower, debris from past customers and the mass of spider webs surrounding the coffee station in our room. Her reply was "oh well we have coffee here in the lobby" as if to suggest the problem was solved, as we wanted coffee and here is coffee. Welp, she totally missed the boat on apologizing for the inconvenience, the lack of cleanliness and ultimately severely not meeting our expectations. She made no effort to try and alter our opinion of this place as when we asked for a pricing consideration due to how displeased we were she responded with the inability for her to do anything and that she would leave a note for the manager. Despite photos I have taken, the lady also explained that the manager inspects every room every day after housekeeping has made their rounds. HA! The remark that the managers inspects every room every day is absurd - I wasn't about to give that an ounce of thought as there is no way that happens and if it does she is just as careless in checking their work as they are in cleaning. Those cobwebs are from months. This was Sunday morning, the manager has yet to reach out and I am sure never will - what a way to run a business. The owner has so eloquently responded to reviews stating that this "Inn" meets the standard definition - "accommodations offering a room and food, often to the traveler"- and if this is truly all they are striving for - to offer a room and food - then perhaps they have done just that - don't expect a clean room or food/drink actually meant for consumption. Instead of combating negative reviews on this site, the owner should listen to what people have to say to make this Inn a place that people enjoy to stay at, yes - a few people seem to have had a remarkable experience but the vast majority have had just the opposite. The lack of concern for good customer service is only further supported by becoming defensive versus trying to make a wrong a right. Oh by the way, AAA discount not accepted on Friday and Saturdays, only hotel, inn, motel or whatever they want to call themselves that I have come across to not accept AAA on a weekend.
