Quaint, comfortable and a delicious breakfast

The hosts are welcoming, the B&B is cozy and clean, and the breakfast is delicious. This is an old house from the 1800’s with all the charm you would expect, but completely renovated to have all the modern conveniences and very clean. The wood burning fireplace is so inviting. The breakfast is not your typical breakfast. It is a three course delight. We stayed 2 nights. The first morning we had a sweet scone, followed by a poached pear followed by a potato frittata with lox and poached egg. The second morning we had a savory cheese scone, followed by a citrus compote, followed by fresh ricotta and lemon pancakes. The drive to Sugarbush is quick and well worth the drive to stay at the Featherbed Inn. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

This place is so very special. The hosts are so kind and went out of their way to get to know us and show us where to go in the area based on our interests. The breakfasts were delicious, and the spa was a welcome amenity at the end of a long car ride or a long hike.

I really can’t say enough good things about this property. Mick and Karen were marvelous hosts. Our family had a wonderful time at their bed and breakfast which feels like a warm and welcoming home. It always smelled amazing inside - whether from baking cookies, mulling cider or home cooking. Karen and Mack outdid themselves every morning with a 3 course gourmet breakfast - best scones ever! The Beatrice Suite was perfect for our family of four. I wasn’t brave enough but my family loved the cold plunge, sauna and hot tub after a long day of skiing. Sugarbush Mountain is just an 8 minute drive and there are lots of delicious options for food to choose from close by. This is a great location for winter sports and looking forward to coming back and experiencing this beautiful property in the summer!

Caring innkeepers

Mick and Karen are like family. In the best ways possible. I was jet lagged and they made sure to leave food out for when I woke up early. That's the kind of care you won't get in any other other bed and breakfast and certainly not in a hotel chain. My son and I had a fabulous trip here - the skiing is great at Sugarbush (just a couple of miles down the road). We plan to be back!

Wow! Love this B&B, couldn't have been better

Such an amazing historic yet beautiful and clean rooms and cottages and the food is five star! The owners Mick and Karen go out of there way to make your stay perfect and even have delicious cookies in the evening and guests can goto common family room in front of fire to share there day with others, have tea and cookies, play fuss-ball or one of there many games. Great location as well and so much to do in all seasons in the area. A true gem I will be going back to. Picts are of making the largest Guinness record book Smore at festival end of December and the adorable little mouse that has been in the main house staircase for decades. Wish I had taken picts of B&B as it is so charming and I was lucky enough to be sleeping on a feather bed with a lace canopy and lace comforter her great grandmother had knit and room in the cottage was so spacious yet warm and cozy.

The inn was recently sold and we had the opportunity to meet the current owners as well as the new owners. Absolutely some of the nicest people in the hospitality business! The house and the surrounding area is beautiful. Enjoyed our limited stay and wish we could have stayed longer.

True North families will find this place SO incredibly healing. It’s prettier than the pictures show. The beds are amazing. Breakfast is delicious. Linda is the perfect balance of present but not imposing at all. I normally am not a fan of bed and breakfasts but Linda May have changed my mind. Rather I’ll return to Feather Bed Inn for sure :). She mentioned her pony recently passing and being in process of finding another equine companion and I look forward to see who she picks when I return. Personally I travel a lot for business so having the animals helps curb the homesickness. When I stayed she only had her dog and outside cat, but they were perfect.

Lovely stay! We absolutely adored !

Wonderful experience, thanks to Tom and his very kind wife who made us feel very welcome. As soon as we entered the place it smelled like sugar pie, delicious aroma in the wonderful house! What a beautiful little place, cozy beds, delicious breakfast, 5 min drive from Sugarbush mountain. We also enjoyed the fireplace and the lovely dog and cat. The owners even offered us with recommendations for dinner not too far away, and a nice brewery where we stopped on our way back to Canada. Wish we stayed more ! Thank you for your true kindness and hospitality! :)
