This is a gem of a place!!! Owner Carol is the sweetest, most interesting innkeeper…read more(schoolkeeper?), and the accommodations are clean, friendly, and historic! Great for groups, with room for lots of friends! Stayed in the "Green Room" as a group of 3, and was almost late to the wedding we were up there for because we were too busy enjoying and exploring Isle la Motte. Gorgeous wildflower gardens in the front, with yard games and a hammock (and a vegetable garden!) in the back. Breakfast both mornings we were there was a wide spread of toasts, juices, eggs, cereals, fruits, and yogurts...and don't forget the homemade muffins! Yum. The laid back vibe, informative hostess and literature, and the picturesque setting all worked together to create a wonderful weekend, the likes of which we will be reminiscing about for years to come. Hopefully, it's not years before we are able to come back to visit Carol and her fantastic place! Go: if you want a fun, relaxing visit full of nature/history exploration, personal connection, and conversation. Don't go: if you need color TV, hustle and bustle, or are looking for a traditional hotel experience. This is NOT that! ...And I couldn't be more pleased about it. Thanks again, Old Schoolhouse of ILM! Loved it and can't wait to be back.

I stayed at this delightful bed and breakfast with my wife and kids Carol is such a wonderful host…read morethat it feels like she is now part of our family ... my kids even call her grandma Carol. If you have a large group there is an old classroom that has been converted into group lodging. There are huge old chalkboards left over that you can write on and a large collection of books and games to pass the time. The kids love this space. If you want more privacy for a couple or small family there is the green room with its own entrance and en suite bathroom. There were lots of options for breakfast including baked goods that Carol makes herself. The kitchen and refrigerators are available for preparing/storing your own meals if you wish and a huge help yourself garden outside we used to supplement our meals. And the rates are fantastic. This is the best value in the area by far! Hoping we can get up to Isle La Motte for another visit this summer.

Good food in a gorgeous location. Attentive staff. It's a little expensive, entrees around $20read more

Great Trip Review of Henry's Cottages…read moreI stayed here the last week of August into September, The place was very clean and the Hosts Bob and Gwen were very nice and helpful. We stayed in a 3 bedroom even though we needed a 2 bedroom, Gwen only charged us for the 2 bedroom since that is what we had requested, and only a 3 was available. It is a cabin not a hotel so if you want a tv, microwave, fan ect.. bring it. But it was clean and all utensils and dishes cups coffee maker were all available along with wi-fi which was surprising. The grounds are beautiful and very well maintained. We also rented a boat which was great, The hosts are always asking if all is well and are quick to fix any problems that occur. There is the smell of sulfur when you use the hot water but you get beyond that, its more your mind playing with you ,the water is fine aside from the smell and if you only use the cold you wont smell it at all. I will definitely return to this place and recommend it to all my friends, When I spoke to Bob he said His Granddaughter and her future husband would be running the place soon, hope they don't change much.

I spent the most relaxing week here on Lake Champlain in cottage #1 with my daughters and my dad…read more It's cozy and had two bedrooms but sleeps 8! It has a full kitchen, pots, pans, coffee machine, anything you could need and a there's a boat ramp too! There's AC but it's really not needed, even in the summer as it's so cool here on the islands of Vermont. No tv and very little reception, but it was not missed AT ALL as we spent our days outside reading on the hammock, fishing right from the dock there, boating, playing games and drinking around the campfire. This is a wonderful place to just escape it all and relax! Right outside you'll find Adirondack chairs, a picnic table, a hammock, a grill and 2 fire pits, one complete with a grate which we used for making campfire potatoes and hotdog grilling late night! So fun! The boat ramp is gravel, so a 4x4 is preferred although it is not necessary. The water is shallow at the start so wading and swimming for even little kiddos was easy and safe. The fishing was great.... small mouth bass, yellow perch and pike. The kiddos caught something the second they casted! It's a great place for the more impatient, novice fisherman. The hosts were very sweet and accommodating. They hand delivered worms to us for fishing when the local "worm guy" was out on his boat for the day. They even brought us firewood and let us use their sit in kayaks, which my girls had a blast on! They were super helpful! They were available as needed as they live at the end of the property, but not at all in our way. There's a campground for trailers on the other side of the dock and on our side, 3 houses for rent. We peeked into cabin #2 and fell in love! I would definitely come back and rent it with just my family of four. It's rustic with wooden interiors and was so cozy! Very different aesthetically from the cottage but both serve a purpose for different needs and sized families. That cabin however only has a small fridge but still a full sized kitchen. My dad has been renting here for years and always has a wonderful time. As many times as I've been to Vermont, I have never traveled these parts, and I'm happy finally to see what I've been missing, what he's been boasting about and what I now long for when I think of a getaway! I look forward to many more visits this cottage and would recommend it for anyone looking for a sweet retreat, especially boat owners! There's no additional cleaning fee, trash is collected by owners at the end of the week and the cost is very reasonable. The entire area was absolutely lovely also. There's a general store down in the center of town that has everything you need, including gas, fresh baked goods, and that Green Mountain coffee. It's there you'll find local activities on the bulletin board as well as any periodical you may want to read. There's farms nearby and lots of places for outdoor activities.There's wineries, too. It's quiet and peaceful and the loveliest little island to just relax It's very close to the Canadian Border, easily accessibly from anywhere in New England and the Adirondacks as it's just a short trip over the Plattsburgh ferry, which if coming from the south saves you quite a bit of time! Day trips to Burlington and Stowe were also very easy from this location! A stay here was one of my favorite weeks of the summer and I look forward to it again! Wonderful area and an awesome hideaway!

We stayed at the 1906 house recently as part of a group of friends converging from all over North…read moreAmerica (plus one from Australia). The location was great, and the house itself is beautifully restored. The rooms are quite large and the beds are very comfy. The breakfasts were very good, as well as the dinners which we had arranged separately (not included by default but as the facility does large events, they can provide dinners if you plan in advance). The bedrooms do not all have bathrooms: depending on the room(s) booked, you may have a bathroom connecting to another bedroom, or accessed from a hallway; we were lucky enough to book the one room that had an en-suite bathroom all to itself. Since the rest of the group we were travelling with booked all the other rooms, the shared bathrooms were not an issue, though I could see not wanting to share a connected bath with strangers (I'd have less of a problem sharing the hallway bath). The location is just a couple of blocks from several restaurants and about a half mile from a grocery store. It's not too far from a number of local sights including a fantastic sculpture garden. It's a short drive from several border crossings if you plan to visit some of the southern Quebec towns. The living room / parlor / entryway and the covered front porch were nice places to hang out with our friends. We were allowed to have our own snacks and non-alcoholic beverages there (alcoholic drinks had to be purchased from the owner, due to licensing rules). The rooms do not have TVs or in-room phones - this being a B&B versus a chain hotel, I did not expect them to. The disadvantages, such as they are, are quite minor. The house fronts onto the town's Main Street, which gets a fair bit of traffic. This means that when relaxing on the porch, our conversation occasionally got drowned out. We could also hear the noise from our room, which overlooked the porch. It wasn't a problem at night - either the traffic died down, or the bed was too comfortable and we fell asleep too fast! If mobility is an issue: there are several steps to get up to the front door, and all the bedrooms are on the second floor; there is no wheelchair access to the second floor.

Beautiful house. Comfortable beds. Clean. Owner is not very friendly, actually she's rude…read more The owner was not there to greet us the first night. Our family had all the rooms booked in the house, we bought some bottles of wine and cheese and all hung out together in the living room. Apparently we were not supposed to do that. The owner was very rude. B&B always have a common room for socializing. We cleaned up after ourselves. We were not loud. Everyone was in bed by 11:30. It was ridiculous. The first time my step mom met the owner, she walked into the home around 8pm and the owner looked at her and said "who are you, this is my house?" My step mom, shaken... answered "I am a guest. I have been here since Friday" The owner said "Well, I realize that!" Just really rude. A few days before we arrived I called and spoke to the owner and asked if there was room for an air mattress on the floor in our room because our two teens were coming. She said that 2 of the rooms had room for an air mattress. The night before we left she charged me $75.00 a night for my son. He slept in the TV room. No bedroom, no bedding. I guess we shouldn't have let him sleep in there, but when we had the entire house booked with our family we figured it was ok. I gave him a blanket and pillow from our truck. Then after I found out that my Aunt had paid her $15.00 a night for a cot for one of my kids. We never used a cot. The owner told me that the room we booked was just for the two adults. I asked her about when I called a few days before arrival about my two teens, she didn't say anything. We spent $75.00 a night for our room. We had a bed, bath, bedding. To charge $75.00 a night for my kid is ridiculous! She also said we booked the rooms, not the house. We shouldn't be in the livingroom. So the final night 8 of us crowded into my cousins room and ate McDonalds and hung out together. Crazy. My cousin had called ahead to make sure the house had wifi and a tv available to watch the Jays games. The owner told him yes. One night we got home to the house just before the baseball game started and my dad walked into the TV room to put on the game. There was an elderly lady in there. the owner said "that's my Mom. When she is here that is her room." Then she should have more than one TV! The owner was just not nice. Not friendly. Rude and mean. You don't treat people like that. Not your guests! The first night we all LOVED the place. We were planning on booking the entire house again next year for our cousins wedding. But not now. We won't go back. It's too bad because the house was conveniently located. Clean and comfy. We won't be giving her anymore money.
