It was just what we needed. It looks like they had other fun fall activities available as well.

If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. I've been spending weekends there every year for…read moreabout 11 years. Mostly, I've attended with a group of country dancers, but recently began going with my grandson, just for a mini-vacation. First: The accommodations. There are several buildings that offer a variety of rooms. We love the cottages, which are actually a three unit structure just outside the main inn. Each includes a sitting room, bathroom and two bedrooms (1 queen and the other with 2 twins.) The knotty pine walls make you feel like a kid at camp again, but the cottages were renovated within the past couple of years and are up to date and well appointed. No telephone or television, just a small refrigerator. I have also stayed in several of the rooms in the Main Inn, which are also very nice. They can accommodate a single person or an entire family, with several different arrangements. There are other, pricier rooms on the property, some of which include television or air conditioning. To each his own, but I love the old time feel of the inn and the cottages. The amenities: There are 3 pools (1 indoor) and 2 hot tubs (1 indoor) as well as a sauna. They are very well maintained and use at your own risk, as there are no lifeguards. There's shuffleboard, swings, sandbox, etc. but the best attraction is the animals. It is a working farm and you're welcome to visit the barns to see the sheep, goats, pigs, horses, cows, ponies, donkeys, chickens, turkeys, bunnies, etc. They've recently cut back on the feeding because too much bread is not good for them. But you can visit and pet them. There are often babies - a goat was born during my recent stay. You can milk a cow and a goat or pick your own eggs from the chicken coop. Extra activities: In summer months, there's boating on the lake, hikes, kayaking, horseback riding and pickup games of kick ball on the lawn. In winter, they have an indoor ice skating rink, snow shoeing and cross country skiing. (You can rent them right there.) Most weekends include new stop family activities, like crafts, games, cooking and animal related activities. Food: This is a highlight. Meals are family style, all you can eat and absolutely amazing. Your overnight stay includes 3 full meals. My grandson and I had our own table reserved for us every night with the same wait staff assigned. They are most accommodating to any dietary requests and very kid friendly. The service is incredibly efficient. I've included many pictures from a recent group dance weekend. In addition to the 3 meals, there's a happy hour style event in the late afternoon with an adult table of hot & cold appetizers and cocktails as well as a kid version with snacks and lemonade. The setting: Right at the base of Mount Monadnock, the farm offers beautiful views of the lake and mountain. If you prefer the indoors, there are comfortable, cozy common areas, including living rooms with fireplaces, library, game room with television, ping pong and board games. They also have a lovely little giftshopIf you are adventurous and tire of the farm (gasp!), the town of Keene is a short drive away. I can not recommend this place enough. It's unlike any vacation you'll take anywhere else. We love East Hill Farm! Update: Just returned from yet another amazing farm experience. The thing that impresses me the most about The Inn at East Hill Farm is that the quality of the visit never waivers. We've all gone to places that were really above and beyond, only to find things slack off after many years (or less) in business. But this place delivers EVERY TIME and I have been coming consistently for more than a decade, visited in three seasons. The accommodations are beautiful, the service impeccable, the food a highlight and the farm experience unique. Thanks for another great little vacation, East Hill Farm!

I'm going to be extremely fair in my review and explain all details and why. I know many people…read morelove this place, and I was so excited to go here but I need to be very honest in the ways they can improve and why 3 stars and not 5 stars from us. The booking and check in process was smooth and easy. The front staff were very friendly on the phone and in person. They walked us around to show us the grounds. Our room was exactly as we expected so no surprise there. It was ready when we arrived, clean and stocked with the basics (towel, soap). We didn't have high expectations for a new/updated room as the photos are exactly how the room was. No fancy frills but clean and absolutely fine to stay in. The beds are not that comfortable but fine. The wall paper in farm house 6 was peeling a bit and wear and tear around the unit was present but we did expect the room to be outdated and didn't have any issues over all with the room. The main reason for our 3 star is really based on food, amenities, and grounds. As for food, do not have high expectations as it's very basic. I would rate it 2 at best, but it's all inclusive and does feed the mass groups. Our waitress the first night was awful, we didn't eat for almost an hour. She told us she was rusty and not ready for the groups yet. Little weird, but I guess she was being honest. The other night/day team were much better and more competent. One odd thing we did notice, food is not in abundance when it's put out for guests to grab. Once something runs out, it runs out. I'm all for not wasting food, that's very important but we noticed often food would run out (cookies, appetizers, and other items to grab-go). For example, the cocktail adults evening, majority of the finger appetizers ran out. Another night, they had watermelon for dessert and it ran out. Ultimately, we can't say we didn't eat, we did, some items just would run out and that was it in terms of offerings. Another concern was the indoor pool, it was freezing. Like unable to swim at all -cold- cold. I would think summer time the pools outside are much better, but we didn't try those as it was too early in the season (April). The toys on the main lawn near the sand pit and volleyball area are all broken and worn out. One of the swings broken and missing. The kiddie barn is broken where the kids play. The boats near the lake are all broken and dingy. I understand this place is more about family legacy and farm life, which yes is special, but most things I found are falling apart around the main lawn area especially. Just in general, broken or not cared for. I am not expecting anything to be brand new or perfect but they're run down. We did most of the kid events and the play doh was all dried out and the crafts very limited. We felt there could've been a few more kid friendly events going on (maybe a movie, more crafts, outdoor music/games, outdoor events). The activity staff seemed really uninterested when it came to many of the events too which was unfortunate. Rather than really engage the kids they often stood around. These are the main reasons for our 3 star review. The concept and legacy idea for families is awesome, but the upkeep just isn't there and not as much engagement as we hoped. I love being outdoors, and for my kids to enjoy their time outside and farm life but they need to clean up a bit here. A few things we did love, to be fair and honest, the farm animals, Pony Ride, Easter egg hunt, and magic show. They were fun and engaging. Also, my kids absolutely loved trying to get eggs from the Hens (despite the limited number, but that's not East Hill's fault, that's just kiddos who claim them all and run away before others get a chance to grab one from the Hens). I also had a massage, that's not East Hill, but their outside vendor they use in their main lobby. It wasn't very good. The lady was nice but the chair massage was not relaxing or enjoyable. She barely massaged me. I wouldn't recommend spending $20 on this add on. This spot has so much incredible potential if they just maintained it better. Such special memories for families to create here. I get leaving the rooms nostalgic and maybe the farm areas, but the grounds, toys, arts and crafts and a few other areas could use some upkeep. Unfortunately that's why this is only a 3 star from our family.

The cabin was well appointed, had some fancy soap and for the first time, we could use the provided shampoo (which was sulfate and paraben free) because our kiddos have curly hair. The kitchen was well equipped- coffee pretty good, appliances and pots and pans are in great condition. We also have a 2 plus year old and they were super nice in lending us a pack and play along with a mattress in it. I'm not sure about the odd experiences the other reviewer had because nothing of the same sort ever happened to us in the least. Todd and Suzy were super nice and helpful. Our kid loved doing farm chores every morning with Suzy. Both kids think she is the "best farmer" ever. She has an incredible amount of patience as she listened to their many farm related stories while we "helped" with farm chores. I say "helped" because the work was extremely light so don't worry about it. In terms of flexibility, they have been great. We had to move our booking because of the covid situation last year and they were incredibly helpful.

The adults had a great time around the fire pit at night that Todd setup and the children had a great time during the day exploring, hiking and using the great play area. If you're looking for a relaxing getaway, I would highly recommend The Fat Sheep Farm.

**November 2025: Tuesday Early Afternoon Visit**…read more For my Vermont portion of the roadtrip I really wanted to visit a maple syrup farm. I called the day before to confirm hours and inquire on potential tours and they indeed were in operation despite the cold season. We arrived around 1pm and entered the small gift shop which had their maple syrup on display in various sizes. They also sold some Vermont made Jam, homemade magnets and some other souvenirs. The shopkeeper greeted us and agreed to give us a tour and educated us about the maple syrup process. She took us out back and told us and showed us the blue pipes that transport the syrup to their backhouse which then heats it up so all the liquid dissipates. At the end of the tour we got to sample both the Medium Amber and Dark Robust syrups. My friend and I definitely preferred the Medium Amber. I bought small maple leaf shaped jars as well as the maple candy to bring in my checked bag and my friend asked if they could ship his gallon to California. This maple syrup has a more molasses taste to it and I think I'm ruined on store bought generic maple syrup lol. Overall, a fun visit!
