We had a wonderful weekend getaway. All interactions with the staff were very pleasant and even got a bit of history with one of the owners. Very comfortable spot to stay. We will be back.

Worth it for the Breakfast Alone
Stayed at the Inn while skiing in nearby Sugarbush. We found the location very convenient, being about a 10-15 min drive from leaving the driveway to being at the resort. In addition, their breakfast service is outstanding, with an always-changing menu of freshly prepared meals. Nothing better to prepare you for a hard day on the slopes like steak and eggs!

Outstanding service!
Stayed at the inn during a couple’s ski getaway. We really enjoyed the outstanding service we received. Upon arriving, we had a problem with our gas fireplace, causing our room to be chilly (this was an outstandingly cold day in the region). They had their site manager arrive promptly to fix the problem. They were eventually able to solve the issue, but they insisted on upgrading us to a bigger room with a nice gas fireplace and even offered to take our bags up to our room. If that wasn’t enough, there was a bottle of some great local cider waiting for us in the room along with two glasses. We had a nice cozy room and a nice gas fireplace to come back to after our days of hard skiing. Would definitely stay here again if I was in the region!

The breakfast was terrific. Our room was on the 2nd floor and for 2 76 yr old people it was was very difficult getting up and down the very steep steps. Some notice I think should have been made known about this or at least an inquiry on their part as to physical limitations.

Breakfast and chef were awesome. Clean, friendly and professional staff. Guest wi-fi was weak and not working in the game room. Don't book the Barnard room, it faces the road and has a very squeeky bed that makes sleeping difficult.

Reserved a room in this as it was on our way. Little did we expect what we saw. We checked in around 7:00 PM and was welcomed warmly by Andy and gave us a tour of the property. He helped us find a good restaurant for dinner. The property has a nice natural charm with a beautiful library, game room and a TV room. The view from our room was mind blowing. We woke up to a huge farm facing a lake and an apple tree. Andy took our meal preferences for our breakfast. Next morning, Judy helped us with breakfast. Being vegetarians, it was one of the best breakfasts we've had. It was served in a beautiful location with nice views. Unlike regular Inns, we were served very well in warm cups, real plates and silverware. Judy helped us with our routes and helped us side see some beautiful locations around. The fall colors were gorgeous. The staff in the farm/inn were very kind, accommodative and friendly. Would definitely go back to stay here and will make sure to stay longer.

The property was lovely. Unfortunately we had to leave unexpectedly early in the morning, so we weren’t able to take advantage of the breakfast. The breakfast room and home cooked menu looked great. Next time we hope to have more time to truly enjoy the Inn and all it has to offer.

Best Breakfast We’ve Ever Had
We had an exceptional stay at The Inn at the Round Barn Farm. We found the Jones Room charming; it fit our needs very well and had a “treehouse” rustic feel that added to the fun. The Inn is within reach of several of our favorite Vermont experiences, including Warren Falls, Vermont Icelandic Horse Farm, and American Flatbread. Walking the grounds of The Round Barn each morning was a little slice of Vermont heaven, from picking ripe apples straight from the gnarly branch, to greeting heifers just over the fence line. But we were most impressed by the delectable breakfast served hot each morning. Apple pancakes, farm fresh omelettes, pumpkin bread pudding, Southern “Buddha Bowl”...each dish was better than the last. We would go so far as to say this was the best we have ever eaten at a bed and breakfast, and made even more special enjoyed on a sunny September morning on the patio, watching the cows mosey across the dewy pasture. We visit Vermont every year, and this was one of our most memorable accommodations. We will certainly be back. 10/10 would recommend.

what a night away should be
when staying at a hotel you are paying for a good night sleep and a good shower. neither: the bed had a large dip in the middle and the noise from people walking above and the light that kept going on and off over our bed through a window. Not great. Tiny bathroom.

What a comfortable, special place to stay. Great breakfast, friendly owner and innkeepers, and lots of details that make you feel pampered. Cookies in the afternoon at 4pm, snacks at 5pm (shepherd's pie, fondue, roast beef points), tea and coffee anytime... Just what we needed after a day of skiing!

So lovely
We arrived a little late and were told to use a key code to enter and retrieve our room key. The key code didn't work and we were locked out for a short time. The innkeeper was quickly able to assist us in getting inside. Everything else about our stay was simply outstanding. Gorgeous room, super clean and quiet. Staff in the morning made us an amazing breakfast and were so helpful. They even sent the watch my husband left on the nightstand free of charge. I can't wait to go back.

Lovely and perfect
have to rely on shuttle otherwise ripoff price for cabs; Wi-Fi uses web log in, can be a pain; shower head old and poor quality Although a bit of detour due to road works; the Inn sent emails to notify me and warned about road conditions; it turned out that Google Maps was totally updated about the necessary detour, so no big deal. High four-column bed very comfortable. Make sure to check in before 8 pm or call the Inn to make arrangements.

Really Lovely Place to Stay!
Had a really nice time and would visit again. Loved learning about the history of the Round Barn. Unfortunately the renovation of the Village Bridge was going on so we had to detour to get around the town, but it was nice driving around the area. Visited Sugarbush resort which wasn't far away and the Icelandic Horse Trail Ride was absolutely amazing which is closeby. Highly recommend!
