"My husband and I stayed at this property because we are driving from the New England coast to upstate New York and wanted a halfway place in the extreme heat. I had remembered this place finally from a couple visits when I was a little girl and had always wanted to go back. We had a lovely room and one of the cottages we had great meals at the main restaurant and the Red Mill.
We loved swimming in the lake at the resort and at Button Bay Park. My husband visited the nearby Marine museum, and I had a wonderful visit at the Shelburne Museum.
The staff were professional and extra courteous!
Only two things that I would change:
The breakfast options were extremely limited. Large Buffet in main dining room, or coffee and small choice of pastries at the main lodge store. Sub par coffee machines in the room.
I recommend adding a place to get good coffee and a small continental breakfast on site.
The other issue that we had is the trail to Button Bay park was not well marked, the signage needs to be enhanced. We got slightly lost, but met a couple the next day who got really lost for the same reason.
I went to Vergennes, 15 minutes away to find good coffee and there are some nice small shops there."
"I checked in near midnight after a late flight, and the clerk spontaneously offered me a late checkout at noon, rather than 11:00 AM, which I gratefully accepted.
The price was also surprisingly low for a full suite with a good kitchenette. I would definitely stay there again, especially for a longer stay in the Burlington area.
Although I did not use the kitchenette, it was well set-up, with stainless steel cookware rather than peeling dangerous non-stick, and a full-size fridge and dishwasher.
I had a few minor issues about the room that I shared with the clerk on checkout -- one was that I could have used full instructions on the full-size Keurig, which I do not have at home and never figured out. They were taken seriously and I'm sure they will be addressed."
"My girlfriend and I LOVED this place. It's not the Marriot or some chain, so it's a bit unique and has quirks, and that's why it's awesome. The room was small but comfortable, the bed very comfy. There was no TV in the room, which I really liked. Great shower. Outside there was a little deck with chairs so we could relax, listen to the Ausable River and look at the lovely grounds. There was also a restaurant area (closed while we were there) that we could sit in for meals or just to hang out. Cool decorations everywhere (and a TV, if you really needed one). And a small game room with foosball, pingpong and a pool table. Fire pit with chairs. Oh, and they provided a nice bagged breakfast with an egg, granola bar, orange, juice box -- basically a good hiking snack. And the staff were very friendly and helpful."
