Vermont Cottage • Sleeps Five • Spectacular Mountain Views • Bed and Breakfast

Over 350 Five Star Reviews ▪ 100% Guest-Focused ▪ 72% Repeat Guests This Year!

Our picturesque mountain and pastural setting are nature’s greeting before you’re warmly greeted in the Main House Gathering Room where your days gently unfold at your leisure. As honored guests, our property quickly becomes your home.

Enjoy the pleasantly languid start to each day, then let adventures still unwritten take you further… We plan fascinating one-of-a-kind experiences according to the pleasure of our guests, but it’s those days when serendipity intervenes that create the most poignant and joyful memories.

Day Break, our legendary gourmet farm-to-table breakfasts are served al fresco at the Main House under our traditional rough-sawn timber frame pergola overlooking pastural gardens and lush undisturbed mountains…

Day’s End, peacefulness returns and easy conversations commence as daylight wanes—you’re comfortably seated in mountain-facing Adirondack chairs sharing stories from the day’s adventures watching eagles ride the mountain thermals…

We have a spectacular website and we publish a monthly newsletter that not only shows off all the cool stuff we do, but the incredible range of experiences available to all our guests, and wait until you see our menu! Our Inspiring Day Trips & Unique Itineraries are outstanding!

Our boutique inn provides a 24-hour concierge service to all our guests, ensuring a very personalized authentic Vermont experience not found anywhere else.

It’s Just Magical Here!

Garden Cottage Description

The Garden Cottage is like a private cabin in the woods situated in the slim pillars of pines—inviting, rustic yet delightfully comfortable open space that provides a sense of peace and tranquility. Cushioned sofa, an Amish Slat Mission Recliner and a vintage American Industrial Factory Cart Coffee Table with fifty-acre pasture views of playful deer and wild turkeys form a cozy living room.

It’s the twenty-foot ceiling that comfortably accommodates the massive antique 120 Drawer Hardware Store Apothecary and a serene Audubon painting above that completes the space. “It is the personal memories, sense of place and all the experiences that I will cherish forever that keep bringing us back.”

Review of Pond Mountain Inn
Kay and Glenn were super nice. Very accommodating to breakfast needs, and gave good recommendations of places to go. Kay made some amazing Blueberry pancakes in honor of my mom that passed. And now she makes amazing red velvet pancakes with icing. Coffee was different every day, and very knowledgeable of area. Will be coming back again. I am from Maine originally, so this felt like home. Very welcoming.

The property is exactly as it looks in the pictures - very clean, comfortable, and well equipped! Glenn and Kay went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed, and provide delicious breakfast (with lots of options). They also provided us with tips about the area such as trails to hike, places to eat, etc. Would definitely recommend!

Fantastic Stay!
We absolutely loved this property and the owners! The property is just as described. We stayed in the cottage. It was immaculate upon arrival. I can’t say enough good things about our hosts Glenn & Kaye. They were an absolute delight. They made us feel so welcome! And Kaye’s cooking was exceptional! She made the best breakfast for us each morning. By the time we left I felt like we were leaving friends. This was a great rental! If you love nature, like your solitude, require immaculate lodging and enjoy having a delicious breakfast each morning with two wonderful people, this is the place to be! Thank you Glenn and Kaye! I hope our paths cross again some time! It was so nice meeting you☺️
