Although one feels the antiquity of the house, the bedrooms and bathrooms are completely up-to-date and the beds are very comfortable. I am a vegetarian so I haven't tasted everything on the menu here, But the carnivores and omnivores I know seem to enjoy it very much... and so have I. One would enjoy spending Christmas here, The house is decorated beautifully and with good taste at Christmas; there's a beautiful park in front of the house with a gazebo and a Christmas tree In December. Spring ,summer and autumn are also special here. There is no place more beautiful than Central Vermont , especially in autumn; Huntington House is the quintessential place to stay at this time of year.

It's gives "Gilmore Girl" vibes through out the Inn as well as the surrounding town. The host was a delight, very accommodating and made sure our stay was comfortable. The restaurant/bar attached to the Inn is such a plus. Can't say enough about how incredible our meals were. Such a variety of options on the menu and each plate came out with a meal to fill you up! The Doc's bar had karaoke which was a hit with our crew. Everyone down to the bartenders were friendly as could be. Hoping to make a trip back come summertime. Thanks again for a rememberable stay

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.

    Before booking, it's important to understand what Liberty Hill Farm actually is. You're staying in…read moresomeone's home -- not a traditional inn, lodge, or working farm stay with structured activities. It's a large, old farmhouse with a few rooms converted into guest rooms. That setup can be charming to some, but surprising to others. Let's start with the "experiences" listed on the website. Things like fly fishing, hiking, or barn tours technically exist, but only if you take the initiative to do them yourself. There's no real guidance, schedule, or facilitation. If you're imagining a hands-on farm experience or curated activities, you'll likely be disappointed. Beth, who runs the property, is clearly the heartbeat of the place -- but she's not a natural in hospitality. While it's understandable that hosting guests in your personal home can be draining, she comes across as short, unwelcoming, and at times, downright rude. For example, she called the day of our arrival to push check-in an hour later, and when we arrived right on time, she rushed us upstairs with a quick "OK, there you go!" No tour, no orientation, no warmth. Later, when we went to the kitchen (hoping to learn more about the farm or get a lay of the land), she looked up and said, "You have questions?" I smiled and said, "So many!" -- expecting maybe a bit of that classic Vermont charm and a quick rundown of things to do. Instead, she said, "Save your questions for dinner please, I'm busy." It was such an awkward, deflating exchange that we actually considered leaving. To her credit, she does cook meals and gathers everyone around the table, which could be a lovely touch in the right hands. But the experience feels centered more around her routine than around guests enjoying farm life. Bottom line: If you're looking for a genuine farm stay -- where you can milk cows, explore the property, and feel part of the rhythm of the land -- this isn't that. If you simply want to sleep in a farmhouse, walk around quietly, and hope not to get scolded, it might suit you fine. I really wanted to love Liberty Hill Farm. The setting is beautiful, the concept is wholesome, but the execution is missing the heart and hospitality that make this kind of stay special.

We arrived on Friday morning prior to check in time, and the staff got us situated in the cozy front common room with a roaring fire and yummy cappuccinos. When it was time to check in, a nice man offered to start a fire for us in the wood burning stove in our room. And he did it multiple times throughout our stay. Everyone throughout the weekend was so wonderful, but we specifically remember Mehnaz and Amelie. They work hard, bring positive energy, and do it all with a smile. The food was also excellent. We had dinner at both restaurants and really enjoyed each experience. The breakfast was also top notch and I wish I could replicate the bacon they serve. Overall, 20/10 stars... we cannot wait to come back! Getting married this fall in Waitsfield and planning on spending the night after our wedding at the Pitcher Inn. Highly recommend!

Dinner started with an anchovy amuse-bouche that had a nice savory taste. They even offered a free glass of champagne for my birthday. The grilled octopus was nice and light, and the cauliflower was okay with the dish. It was a smaller potion, but left room for the remaining courses. The tagliatelle was cooked well and the tomatoes and mushrooms added nicely to the dish. This was a nice sized portion, and definitely filling. The chocolate raspberry tart was more on the chocolatey side. Maybe my least favorite course from those I had, but nonetheless still good. The check came with petit four which was a nice touch. My waiter, Sergiu, was delightful and made me feel welcome the entire time. I really enjoyed my dinner here and would look to return.
