Rick and Tim are the best! They are so gracious and inviting. We loved every minute of our stay at the Swanson inn, from our late night check in where Tim met us and showed us to our room, to the day we checked out after a delicious breakfast of home made biscuits and gravy (and some amazing yogurt!). The rooms are very quaint and super clean. The bed was awesome! I got some of the best sleep this year! We overslept breakfast service, but Tim made sure we each got a slice of quiche to-go. This was our first B&B experience, and we loved it. Rick even hung out with us and chatted about the local economy and how things are in Vermont. You won't get that at a chain hotel! The grounds are beautiful, there is a nice pond to sit and enjoy a beer or some of their wonderful pie! There is even a hiking trail within steps of the Swanson. We will definitely stay here again. Thanks Rick & Tim

Great place with quick easy access to skiing, great access to nearby restaurants, comfy beds and a charming interior. The hosts are particularly amiable. It has been a pleasure to stay here!
We haven't stayed there because we have our own place in The Valley, but THE PIES ARE OFF THE CHARTS. We can't go a week without getting one. Make sure to call in advance because they're made to order.
The inn has a lot of charm and history just like the rest of Vermont. The rooms and bathrooms are very clean and spacious. Our bed was very comfortable, and we had plenty of fresh linens throughout our weekend stay. The best perk of your stay with them will definitely be the breakfast and pies. Tim will not let you start your day without a hardy meal and accommodates to any allergies/food restrictions. We strongly suggest you save some room for Tim’s scrumptious pies. We tried the cherry pie and chocolate cream pie and highly recommend both. The location was perfect and central to Sugarbush mountain, restaurants, Lawson’s Brewery, and grocery stores. Very convenient if you’re coming up to the area for winter sports at Mad River and Sugarbush. Last but not least, Rick and Tim are wonderful hosts! They followed all state Covid protocols prior to our arrival and during our stay. They wore masks and socially distanced whenever possible. We can’t wait to stay at the inn again, but in the meantime we will be making the drive from MA for more pies.
Stayed here on my thru-hike of the LT. Tim and Rick certainly know the drill when it comes to hikers. They were gracious, responsive, and helpful in all things from transportation to tea. Tim makes delicious food and coffee but the loose leaf Earl Grey and leftover muffin after a long day was a highlight of the LT. Just finished up the trail and I’m already looking for an excuse to return for a stay. Thanks Tim and Rick! P.S. they are cognizant of COVID safety precautions and made me feel very comfortable in a new place
This was a wonderful place to stay, I was offered rides to/from trailhead/town, they have a hiker box, WiFi, they did my laundry for me, made us a delicious dinner and breakfast (included) and beer for purchase. The house and my room were beautiful, comfortable, rustic and wonderfully decorated (no tv). I loved seeing all of the pictures and articles about the Long trail even their own personal pictures from the trail. They genuinely care about hikers because they hiked the Long Trail themselves and it's because of the kindness and hospitality of people like this that I was able to make it to Canada! Thank you!
Tim is a very kind and generous man who helped me out with a place to stay at the last minute. He made me feel very welcome and comfortable. The house itself is very charming and the grounds are beautiful and relaxing. It was such a pleasant visit at the Swanson Inn and I plan to visit again.
I was a section hiker, meeting up with my friend on the Long Trail. We both stayed at the Swanson Inn the night before heading out. The two owners were exceptionally nice, amazing cooks, and incredibly generous with transportation to and from the trail. These two guys are the type of people that give Vermonters their amazing, friendly, hospitable, knowledgeable reputation. As far as the Inn itself, the stay was marvelous, the amenities were perfect (home cooked delicious meals, lots of comfy common rooms, all the info you could want about local attractions, and well-furnished rooms), and I would give this place six stars if I could.
