We had a wonderful stay at the inn. This was our first time in Vermont and we came for a family wedding. The location was convenient and soooo beautiful looking out across the fields to the river. Susannah and Brandon were fantastic hosts. The breakfasts were top notch! The pancakes and waffles were to die for and the eggs with prosciutto and pesto were just as good. It's a fabulous family run inn and we'll definitely be back when we visit our niece.

What a great place! Brandon and Suzanne made our experience comfortable and personal. Our room was comfortable and the rest of the property was fun to explore. Breakfasts were made to order with fresh ingredients. Homemade cookies in the afternoon were a treat, along with a very large assortment of teas served in antique cups and saucers. Located near Waitsfield, a fun little village, and not far from Waterbury and Stowe.

We had an amazing stay at the Mad River Inn. The room was comfortable, the sitting area with a fire perfect, and the game room in the basement was a nice addition. It is a perfect place for families and friends who want to have a place to gather. The breakfast, afternoon cookies, and all the other amenities put this place on the top of the Inns we have visited in the Northeast. In addition to all that the innkeepers were engaging and fun to spend time with. We will return!

Our hostess, Suzanna, made our 4 day stay at Mad River Inn so enjoyable. Our room was spacious; king bed with lots of comfy blankets. Slippers & robes provided! Breakfast each morning was from 8-10 am & offered a selection of a sweet or savory dish. Tea & coffee was always available… and Suzanna’s homemade cookies each day were delicious!

We had a wonderful stay at the Mad River Inn during the Christmas holiday period. The Inn is a lovely, Vermont farmhouse and the hosts, Susannah and Brandon, were welcoming and attentive to every detail. The breakfasts were homemade and gourmet - and gluten-free for our daughter. The homemade cookies and macaroons (also available gluten-free!) every afternoon were a special treat. We enjoyed meeting the other guests and look forward to returning!

We had a nice two-night stay at the Mad River Inn in May. It is kept clean, owners are friendly, and there was a great homemade breakfast in the morning, which we chose to eat on the outdoor porch facing the farm next-door. My only issue was the somewhat inaccurate description of the Warren/Waitsfield 2 bedroom “suite”. A suite indicates one shared room for all guests that our family of three could stay in. But, the bathroom is located in the Waitsfield room, and the Warren room is a separate room that you have to pass through the top of a staircase to get to. Our grown kid had to get dressed to go to the bathroom or shower, since the passage between the rooms was a small but public space. Perhaps the top or bottom of this back staircase should be closed off so it feels more private. Was under the impression we would all be in one room. Ideally this “suite” should just be the Waitsfield and Champlain rooms since there is a connecting door between the two of them and you wouldn’t need to leave your room to use the bathroom.

This Inn is a must visit. The bedrooms are very well appointed and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and started with a bowl of fresh fruit. The every day homemade cookies were a bonus treat. The hosts could not be more accommodating and attentive. If we are ever in the area again we will definitely stay here.

Stayed here this past weekend for three nights, the room was spotless and quiet. I never heard ANY noise from outside the room! The bed was extremely comfortable and the breakfasts were excellent and all the guests are seated at one table which makes an interesting & convivial meal! There are no restaurants or anything else within walking distance but the inn is 2 minutes (if that) from Waitsfield and all of the restaurants & amenities there. I will stay here again when I return to the Mad River!
