Our latest trip to Rabbit Hill Inn was awesome!. We were once again "welcomed home" and it felt more like family than just a place to stay. Brian & Leslie are superb Innkeepers - they lead and directed their impeccably trained staff, but were also personally involved with every detail of our stay.
This stay was in a room we'd never stayed in previously, Turnabout. The room is in the oldest part of the Inn, and is full of charm and romance. Tasteful, elegant furnishings, a king-size 4-poster bed, and a large bathroom with a whirlpool tub and a large shower. This room is also ADA compliant.
As usual, we solved several of the beautiful Stave puzzles during our stay. The Snooty Fox Pub houses the puzzles and several tables, and is a great place to meet other Inn guests, indulge in an afternoon pastry, or enjoy a cocktail in the evening. Free WiFi is available in the pub area, and also in several of the rooms that are nearby.
The food was, as always, incomparable. The chef is very creative with use of local produce, and combines color, flavor, and texture in ways you wouldn't expect at a country Inn. The desserts were especially wonderful! Breakfasts are included in the room charge and features a choice between a sweet dish (pancakes, waffles, french toast, etc) and a savory dish (eggs, quiche, etc), plus a buffet of pastry, fruit, and homemade yogurt and granola. Dinners are an extra charge, but are completely worth it.
The area close to the Inn had bountiful activities. One day, we took a guided ATV tour, riding on back roads and trails and seeing parts of Vermont we could never otherwise see. Another day, we went on a hike that was recommended by the Inn staff. The hike brought us to a secluded mountain peak with an incomparable view of the mountains. These were exactly the kinds of activities we were looking for during our stay.
We have stayed at the Inn about a dozen times previously. Each time, we set our expectation levels very high, but they are always met or exceeded. Every detail is handled with style and grace. A stay at Rabbit Hill Inn is as close to a perfect getaway experience as imaginable.
