The Featherbed Inn

We've stayed at many lovely B&Bs in New England, but NEVER have we found two innkeepers who lived into their roles like Mick and Karen! Welcoming, hospitable, energetic, ever-present and full of area recommendations - they're a downright delight to be around. The kitchen is at the center of their inn's experience - inviting, busy and aromatic. Every breakfast is a delicious, locally-sourced creation. Add to this true featherbed comfort, you'll find this inn to be a unique experience in any season! Cathy and Gates

This is the best place that we have ever stayed with our son who uses a walker. Mick and Karent treat us like family and are so good to all of us. We appreciate all the hard work they do for the breakfast, the comfy beds, relaxing atmosphere and how much we appreciate their beautiful place. It is hard to describe how much fun we had.

The Featherbed Inn was an idyllic base for our Vermont Nordic ski getaway in the Mad River Valley area. Karen and Mick were so friendly and welcoming. The room and bath were sparkling clean, and the bed very comfortable. With two living rooms, one with a large fireplace, there is plenty of common space to enjoy, and we appreciate the 5PM libation and cookies - the hot ginger lemon maple toddy was amazing. Breakfasts were 3 courses and fantastic and we enjoyed the communal seating (though there are separate tables as well). They easily accommodated my low gluten request while my husband had no problem as a vegetarian. The Inn is conveniently located to dinner restaurants. The sauna is incredibly built and perfect for after a day of skiing and there is a hot tub as well.. The XC skiing was fabulous- Camels Hump State Park, Rikert Nordic (at Middlebury) and then locally Blueberry Lake- would have liked to explore the Catamount Trail and go up to Von Trapp as well as Ole’s locally but ran out of time. We look forward to coming back to the B&B in the summer with its swimming pond and gardens while enjoying hiking and canoeing and biking.
