When hosting a corporate offsite event, it's nearly impossible to make everyone happy--unless you…read morethrow your event at the Interlaken. I recently hosted a corporate retreat at the Interlaken for 45 leaders from our business, and unequivocally this was the best venue I've ever worked with. There are so many ways a venue can fail to meet your standards - whether it be the quality of the food, meeting spaces, or accommodations, challenges with staff, cost - but Interlaken delivered on all of it. Read the anonymous feedback from just about any corporate event, and you'll see how divisive food can be for large groups. The reviews from my event unanimously applauded the work of the Interlaken's talented chef, echoing everyone's positive feedback at each meal. They were particularly helpful in meeting the dietary needs and restrictions of every colleague we had on-site. Event spaces and property grounds were versatile and beautiful, allowing us to program all sorts of unique engagement opportunities on-site both indoors and out. The team at the Interlaken, from the event planners to the wait staff, were friendly and accommodating of every request we had - without sticking us with a penalty for last minute asks. I felt like their team was part of my team throughout the planning and execution of the event, and they were as invested in my event's success as I was. If you're looking to host a corporate event - do yourself a favor and host it at the Interlaken. Your colleagues will all thank you.

Grateful for good shower water pressure, but the mattress and pillows were way less than ideal. I awoke every morning feeling like I'd been beaten with a baseball bat. There was a mini fridge and an extra blanket, so that was helpful. Most decor and rooms pretty tired and in need of an update. Food at restaurant lacking in variety and if you wanted something healthy. The weekday breakfast offerings were underwhelming, and I'd recommend bringing something for yourself.

The only minus is all the seating with cushions could use a good deep steam cleaning. Everything else was All Plus's! Three of us were staying in a room. So it was a bit crowded. The room was beautiful! The drinks in the refrigerator (different types of iced teas) were complimentary. Plus they had the real nice coffee maker - The Nespresso. Breakfast was also included and you went to the onsite cafe- provided your room number and we were all set. Right outside our room was two chairs in a table for enjoying outside. We got unlucky with weather our 2nd and final day / night were downpours. But The White Hart had Monopoly so that took up three hours of our time. If we would have gotten better weather they have a front lawn with many chairs and corn hole. Along with deck all around the hotel for playing board games or cards Hope we get to visit again soon!

ORIGIN: Hart is an old English word for a mature male deer,…read moreand a white hart is prominently represented in English folklore. The White Hart itself has some history. The building dates back to 1806, with use as an inn soon thereafter. LOCATION: The White Hart is located in the center of Salisbury, as for centuries, a great place to stop when crossing New England. The town and its surroundings are also worthy of being the destination, as there are many natural attractions, as well as cultural institutions in the vicinity. CONCEPT: Today the White Hart welcomes travelers and local residents alike, with sixteen rooms, two restaurants, a wide porch, and ballroom. There is something for everyone. EXPERIENCE: The White Hart has artwork scattered across the building. As I waited for a garden fundraiser and talk to begin, I walked through the entrance floor and marveled at the variety and number of prints on the walls. A reception was arranged in the bar/lounge area next to the ballroom. Many thoughtful details could be found in the cheese board display. Most unique and striking was the use of a vase of forsythia branches to cast dappled light on the table.

The room was large with a comfortable king bed, sofa, chairs, and clean bathroom. It also had a Keurig with K-cups and tea. View of our room were the open fields, though we kept the window blinds drawn for some privacy. Plenty of hot water available in the bathroom and we felt safe at night. There's no breakfast due to COVID, but they offer some oatmeal and granola bars in the lobby. Location is pretty good; walking distance to a grocery store if you need anything, as well as 15 minutes to Lime Rock, and 10 minutes to a lovely village called Millerton. Beautiful scenic drives and a peaceful overnight stay!

The property is beautiful - plenty of hiking and walking trails. Great locations and amazing views. Do not overlook the stagecoach tavern in the property for dinners- I'll review that separately. Breakfasts were amazing and the same superior quality as the restaurant. Best food we have had in a long time. The staff is more than happy to accommodate you in the private sauna or an outside fire with smores! Looking forward to our next trip here.

Buyer beware! I'll break this review up into three parts because there are a lot of moving parts…read morehere. Booking/ pricing/ management: We stayed a night at the Race Brook Lodge to see a concert a little while ago. At first glance, a stay here looks a little pricey based on what you appear to be getting. In my head, $200 for a small room in a converted barn is steep. When I went to book it, I was asked to select a "package." There was one advertising a nights stay, a three course dinner in the Stagecoach Tavern, and breakfast the next day for $185. I thought since dinner and breakfast were included, that wasn't such a bad deal after all. Total cost after taxes and fees when I hit the purchase button: $201 Imagine my surprise when I got my confirmation email and took a look at the receipt- $309. I quickly looked at my credit card statement, sure enough- $309. I sent them an email immediately asking what was up with the extra $108. Crickets. Oh well, I figured I could just hash it out with them when we got there. I came to find out that there is no front desk, and everything is handled over text messages, so that made it a little more difficult. When the time came to check out, I got a text asking me to click a link to view my "balance." I clicked it and discovered that they were attempting to charge me another $92. At this point I sent them another email and told them that this felt like a scam, and that I would be disputing the charges with my credit card. They responded right away saying that there was a miscommunication, the "package" was actually separate from the room charge and that they were supposed to let me know of that right after I booked, but someone dropped the ball. They did eventually honor the original $201 price that I was quoted, but if I hadn't noticed the discrepancy or been firm about fixing it, I can't imagine they would have refunded it by themselves. Sidenote: when looking closely at the dinner/breakfast package pricing- it's an absolute ripoff. "Package" dinner: $150 Meals Tax: $10.50 Billed gratuity: $24.00 All in- $184.50. For ONE person. For dinner and a middle of the road buffet breakfast? The "three course dinner" allows you to pick any starter, entree, and dessert from the restaurant menu. If you picked the three most expensive items in each category, it would be $104. Plus a $15 breakfast, you're still not even in the neighborhood of $150. I suppose selecting the meal package bestows on you the honor of donating an extra $31 to the owners of the lodge. Great deal! The Room: We were happy enough with our room. It was nothing special, but it had air conditioning, hot water, and it was clean: really my only three boxes that need to be checked by a hotel. The photos on their website appear to be from 2017, which made me a little weary, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that the room actually looked better in person. We stayed in the Hayloft #7 room. The concert in the barn: The concert we saw was EXCELLENT. The barn is an amazing venue for a small show like the one we saw. Everyone was giving each other a respectful amount of space, and there truly was not a bad view to be found anywhere. It was hot inside the night we were there, but when it gets to be a little much, you can just step outside, grab a glass of water and some fresh air, and come back in and still have an amazing view of the show. As far as concert venues go, it doesn't get much better than that. All in all, I can't recommend staying here. I'd go see another show in a heartbeat, but would look elsewhere for accommodations. Our time at the lodge was pleasant enough, but the funny business with their pricing left a really bad taste in my mouth. At my most charitable- I'd say it's bad bang for your buck. At worst, the pricing is intentionally ambiguous.
