Our 2 night stay at the Jackson was not as expected. First off there is NO breakfast provided…read more There is a complimentary coffee machine in a common room and that is it. Based on reviews and their webpage, I was under the impression that breakfast was provided but it was not. You can buy breakfast in the restaurant but it is expensive. The weirdest part of the stay was that there is no host to check guests in or help with issues. It is completely virtual! You press the button on a doorbell camera and someone answers after like 5 min. I had to press it several times to get a response at 10 am in the day of my checkout. The response was the staff doesn't show up until 11 am; which is the checkout time. There is a text number but the person or AI agent on the other end clearly is not the innkeeper or anyone capable of making decisions. They/It provided faulty information and was the opposite of helpful. If this is what the future of hospitality looks like, I am not impressed. My family rented two rooms on the first floor. One room facing the back of the property was nice but the other one (#15) was very small and had two windows overlooking the front porch and yard. Unfortunately there are chairs just outside of the windows and someone kept sitting in one of them and talking on her phone. It was very uncomfortable to have the shades open and have someone sitting right there. Because of this we had to keep the curtains drawn and with the room being so small, it felt like we were in a cave. Basically, it sounds like staying at the Jackson used to be a very nice experience but new owners/management are now trying to run the hotel as cheaply as possible. Guests are noticing.

Be cautious when booking at this inn. There is no direct contact number for the property, and if…read moreyou make an incorrect reservation, you won't be able to change it. Additionally, you will be charged immediately. I tried to call the inn directly, but a third party I contacted offered no assistance other than stating they would "expedite the request." Unfortunately, no one from the inn reached out to me, and I ended up losing my money.

Words can't describe how pleased we were with Trailside for our wedding in September 2025, but I'll…read moretry. Josh and Ann are incredibly friendly, detail-oriented, and punctual. They answered every email inquiry we had over the 11-ish months of planning our wedding within 1-2 days. And we'd never planned something like this before, so we had a LOT of questions. They made it incredibly easy to plan all the details specific to their venue (every available amenity, dimensions, etc.) without requiring additional onsite visits. They have a default Wedding Weekend plan down to a science, and respected all of our desired deviations from that default plan while still offering specific advice from their years of experience.  The venue itself is lovely. Our guests complimented the quality of the rooms and the beauty of the natural scenery. It's perfectly situated for guests to easily take nature walks, hikes, or ride to the top of Killington peak in their free time.     They provided the services of a Wedding Planner for us as part of their base package, and they 100% delivered beyond our expectations in this regard too. When our primary reception caterer failed to provide services they were contracted for (setting dishware/tableware, washing dishes, filling water glasses), Josh and Anne jumped into action and completely took over. They tableset our entire reception, washed all the dishes themselves, and filled water glasses to ensure dinner could be served as early as possible. When our caterer even forgot one of the primary entrees, Trailside already had a backup plan to order emergency pizzas from nearby and settle the cost at a later date. Even outside the scope of a catering disaster, they consistently helped us to unload and organize our décor, keep the bonfire lit and warm, and kept s'more tables and other amenities stocked. They truly did not have to perform at the level they did, but they even employed additional helpers as needed to make sure we were never behind schedule. It let us truly relax and enjoy the company of our loved ones rather than stressing about logistics.   If you decide to book a wedding at Trailside, please relax knowing the fact that Josh and Anne are looking out for you and will help steer you in the right direction throughout the process- having a very natural schedule, easy room booking process, and picking quality vendors (they only onboarded our failed reception caterer by exception to their standard list and by my wife and I's explicit request - they no longer approve that vendor for weddings at Trailside). If you're deciding between venues, my wife and I would wholeheartedly recommend you pick Trailside and sleep easy knowing your wedding will go smoothly and beautifully.

The ambiance was very memorable -- from the adorable covered bridge you drive through, to the architecture of the inn, to the sweet greeting from innkeeper Bill. We felt like we were visiting someone's home, and we could definitely sense Bill's passion for the place. We visited around Christmastime during Covid-19, so Killington wasn't as busy as I'm sure it usually is. We had the choice of eating in the dining room or in their lounge in front of the HUGE and beautifully decorated tree. Christmas music was softly playing, and the romantic cabin aesthetic really made me feel like I was living in a real life Hallmark movie. The food was good, not SUPER memorable, but very yummy. We had the brie (my favorite), ravioli and NY strip steak. Overall, the experience was fantastic for our anniversary. Try it out!

It's very tough to make all your lodgings without wiggle room b/c the fact is--you can't know 100% how to fine tune your itin. until upon arrival. This was the 1st time we traveled by prepaid/non flexible bookings b/c i was warned that i had to. This led to not too much flexbilitiy in our itin, extra back track driving, &2 nights desperate for lodging that was affordable partially due to a host overbooking and not letting me know in advance that she would sell her rooms before letting me know if i might want to extend our stay, etc. As we came when it was "prime" weekend (Columbus long weekend) it compounded to our problem of hunting for a place. After going to B'ton for a quick bite, we were relieved to get out as it seemed the entire town was in b'ton. We ended up finding this place on CL after I contacted 10-12 places that were not affordable to us. This is a simple inn in a small town out of nowhere with a communal kitchen. (big plus for us being able to cook breakfast & dinner--makes u kinda homey esp after many days away from home & most ppl like the kitchen access). It is not in those typical touristy town so if that's what you're looking for, this isn't for you. There is a "general store" across the street, which we didn't get a chance to check out as we had extra food we brought over. It's a very quiet town. There are probably 5 rooms or so, a little sitting area, a long table in the "dining area" and so you would be able to meet some fellow travelers while you eat your meal. In the mornings travellers congregate in the morning to make their coffee, tea, and breakfast so you will have ppl to chat with. They have rooms w/ shared communal bathrooms (sold out) so we got the rooms w/ bathrooms. There are 31 chickens in the backyard and some ducks and so you get to have free range self-cooked eggs in the mornings. The room was a decent size with a queen sized bed. It got to be a cold in early Oct when we were there. No heat but you could ask for extra blankets. Rooms have 2 windows which is nice as I like to get some fresh air and air out the room during my stay.

A couple of warnings: you are staying in a house that was built over a hundred years ago. All things considered, it's in great shape, but as of now, the exterior drastically needs a paint job. The Victorian nature of the house makes it look a little like the Psycho house. Don't give up, just go inside! However, once you are inside, you are in heaven. Karen is the nicest person you could imagine hosting a B&B. She was very excited to be sold out for a special event at the Star Trek tour. The place looks great inside (see my photos). We stayed in the Rose Room. The room was huge, with a very good bed. The bathroom is large as well. We loved everything about it, except for two small things. The jacuzzi tub does not have a shower. I did not notice this when reserving the room. Of course, a bath is fine. The only other complaint I have is that the wifi did not work in our room. It's a very big house, so I was not completely surprised. Our cell phones worked fine (Verizon). Wifi worked fine in the living room, which is also a very comfortable area. There is a flat-screen TV with Hulu in the living area (which happens to have the Star Trek episodes...). There are very large lawn areas outside the house, which would be perfect for events like wedding. I saved the best for last. The breakfasts are amazing. All home-made. In four days I put on three pounds! With my wife being vegan, we are used to getting no choice for breakfast, but she gave multiple vegan options every day we were there. KAren is really sweet and tries very hard to make everyone happy!
