Sid, the owner, went above and beyond to ensure a memorable night. He even gave us a ride on the oldest continuously operated elevator in Vermont! While it is a historic hotel, it's not without modern amenities and comfortable rooms. The room was warm and inviting. It needed a little updating and the doors don't close too well, but you'd expect that in a hotel from the late 1800s! Although we were only there overnight, I can see its potential for all year round stays, and even has the space and amenities for weddings. I will definitely consider the Historic Brandon Inn should the need arise in the future!

Extremely noisy environment-VERY ANNOYING-making conversation impossible. Terrible acoustics. Service was OK, but food was tasteless and boring. Seems like no spices were used in anything.

We wished we were here longer, we may see if there's a room on the way back to break up our trip. The property itself is beautiful, very historic. The rooms are clean, also beautifully decorated. The staff- this is where my 5 stars come into play, so accommodating, pleasant. We arrived at 8pm on a Sunday, well the town is pretty much shut down, they recommended a fabulous dinner spot still open. Then around 1130 when I realized there is no coffeemaker or microwave so I can have tea before bed, I found myself at the desk and she was beyond accommodating, she got me some hot water from the kitchen.. seems simple and small but you saved me a very sleepless night. This place including the staff are top notch!!

This was a perfect getaway for our anniversary, and the breakfast was so special! Nancy started you out with assorted beverages in their cute custom Maple Leaf Inn ceramic mugs, and a chocolate muffin which was light and not too sweet (best one I've ever had). Next course was a banana with a lemon caramel sauce(delicious). The savory course was a poached egg on top of lentils and roasted tomatoes on top of polenta. We stayed in the Morning Glory room which had a soaking tub for two(I enjoyed this every day) with complimentary herbal bath salts. The bathroom also had radiant floor heating which was a very nice touch on cold Vermont mornings. Our bed had a pillowtop, with amazingly soft silky sheets. I wanted to take them home with me! The room also had a nice flat screen TV with two reclining wing back chairs. Mike and Nancy also offer one complimentary beer or wine every night, which was very nice. Not to mention the library with assorted older books, easy reads, and old romantic movies! Their dog, Beckit also was very fun to play with. The value- I paid 155 for one night (which is also the deposit when you book), and during the week during off peak season you get the second night at 50% off! naturally, we stayed a second night. Who could pass that up? With all the small touches that this place offers, I felt like royalty. This place is seriously like no place I have ever been, they made my fiance and I feel like family, I cant wait to come again!

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.

Tip: I highly suggest you book as far out as possible, even if its 6 months out, if you need to make sure you have a room secured.

Just something to keep in mind. Highly recommend!! Thank you!

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.
