A little disappointed to find out the best restaurant was closed on the days we were there. The food at the pub was surprisingly good tho. The spa service seemed nice but they did screw up my booking a couple times. Hotel did go out of their way and gave a very good discount. I would stay again.

The pool, hot tub, sauna were wonderful on a snowy weekend. The room was spacious and clean. The restaurant had a great menu and the bar had a lot of local beer on tap. It was close to Burlington and to Bolton Valley Ski Resort. The staff was friendly. One thing I would change would be the bed. Our room had a very firm bed and it didn’t have real sheets so they kept moving around which made it difficult to get a good nights sleep.
