Policies


OUR POLICIES
All rates are double occupancy, per night and are subject to change without notice. A major credit card is required to secure your stay - you may pay with an alternate payment method at checkout. We accept cash, checks, and most major credit cards.

CHECK IN / OUT
Check in is from 3:00pm until 7:00pm. Please let us know if you plan to arrive after 7:00pm. Check out is at 11:00am.

MINIMUM STAY
Minimum stay requirements vary, but a two night minimum stay is occasionally required on weekends as well as on holidays, during special events and during all of foliage season. When booking online, our website will let you know if a minimum stay is required, but please feel free to call to inquire about your specific travel requests.

DEPOSIT
Charges for your stay will be settled at checkout. We do not require a deposit; however, an amount equal to one night’s accommodation plus the full charge for any packages, gifts or addons will be charged for cancellations made less than than 10 days prior to arrival (see below). 

CANCELLATIONS
Because of our small size, cancellations and no shows affect us significantly. For this reason cancellations must be made ten days prior to the date of arrival to avoid forfeiture of your deposit. All cancellations are subject to a $12 bank imposed credit card charge.

NO SHOWS
If a guest does not arrive and honor their reservation, or contact us to cancel, they will be charged for the full amount of the stay.

CHILDREN
Our Bed and Breakfast is not appropriate for children; most of our guests are looking for a quiet and/or romantic getaway.

PETS
We are sorry to say that we cannot accept pets at this time. 

PARKING
Parking is limited to guests only as we have one parking space per room. Please let us know in advance if you will need parking for more than one vehicle.

SMOKING
We are a completely non-smoking establishment. Smoking is allowed outdoors only. Please be courteous to others, smoking away from the house or open windows and please pick up after yourself. If evidence of smoking is found in your room, cleaning charges of $300 will billed to your credit card.

BREAKFAST
We serve a fixed country breakfast mornings between 8:00AM and 9:00AM. With notice, we can make earlier breakfast arangements, if needed. We are happy to prepare our delicious breakfast for those not staying at our inn. We require advance notice and charge $15 per breakfast.

RATES
Our rates are based on double occupancy and are subject to a 9% Vermont State Meals and Rooms Tax (not included). The charge for an extra person is $25 per night and includes breakfast.

LEGAL NOTICE
This is our home and we reserve the right to refuse service to anyone. We are not responsible for accidents or injury, damages to personal property or vehicles or for the loss of money or valuables of any kind.

ALCOHOL
We do not have a liquor license at this time, so we cannot serve alcohol, but Vermont State law permits you to bring your own alcoholic beverages and consume it on the premises. Please consume alcohol responsibly, and do not drink and drive.

FORGOTTEN ITEMS
Items left behind at our Bed a& Breakfast can be sent to you via mail at your request. The cost of shipping + a $5 handling and packaging fee (rounded to the next whole dollar) will be billed to your credit card.
