It was strange not to be greeted by anyone, very impersonal both arriving and leaving. We did see the gentleman we assumed to be the owner but he barely spoke to us.

Quiet and pretty location and suited our needs a for a night. Didn’t see any signs of staff the whole stay which made it a little impersonal. Breakfast very basic but all in all a pleasant enough stay.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Old Lantern Inn and Barn, and I can’t recommend it highly enough! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by the warm hospitality of the host, who went above and beyond to make my stay enjoyable. The lobby, beautifully designed, immediately set a welcoming tone. The breathtaking views surrounding the inn were truly a highlight, providing a serene backdrop for relaxation. I loved the complimentary tea, coffee, and snacks available at all times—such a thoughtful touch that made my stay feel even more special. The hassle-free check-in process, even late in the evening, made everything so convenient. Overall, this is a gem of a place, and I can't wait to return!

While the owners seemed very nice some very basic considerations were not taken. I checked in at 10 PM and could not find the property because "the fairy lights" were out! Extremely inconvenient and nerve-wrackingly unsafe for my handicapped mother especially! I had to call the owners to find there actual location in the black of the night! Other issues included hand towels instaled at over 6 feet high in a handicapped room!!! i also did not like my stay in a bed with yellow wrinkled sheets. I paid less at a Hilton in Boston. I hope you like your stay more than we did.

We understood that there was breakfast, but there was none - only snacks that were available in cannisters. We were promised a room overlooking the lake, but there was none - the inn is far from the lake. The room was clean and lovely. I can't say anything about the service because there was none - the reception was closed when we arrived, and when we left. In sum, pretty building, nice furniture, comfy bed, but overpriced.

Stay here if you possibly can! The grounds are so peaceful and beautiful, the food was great, there's a fun bike ride down to the ferry, country walking on trails, pretty farmland, and an astonishing, amazing, truly unbelievable host.

Restaurant recommendation was the best!
The host was a lovely person who made the stay worthwhile. Recommended a fabulous restaurant for dinner - best part of stay. Bed was very noisy; creaked when getting in/out and with movements causing disruptive sleep. Although website advertises air conditioning, the control was in one location so it was basically nonexistent making for a warm stay. Room had fans but still warm. False advertising re air conditioning. Very early in morning (4 am) a loud machine kicked on waking us. Thought it was the house AC but uncertain. Bathroom was small but adequate. Curtain was too short so water ran out onto flooring. Breakfast was continental style and adequate. Restaurant and host were the two positives; wouldn't stay there again due to inability to get a decent night's rest.

Re staff and service, we never saw a single human being from the property. There was no one to check us in and no one around at all during the breakfast hour? Everything was self serve and fine, but one does like some human contact. How do they build relationships otherwise?

Small Inn south of Burlington
The room was small. It had a Queen size bed and a small bathroom. No TV, refrigerator or microwave were in the room. There was a small common refrigerator in the hallway. There was no ice available. The free breakfast was good with coffee, yogurt, Chex cereal, and fruit.
