Landscaped gardens with stone walls, gazebo and ponds border woodland walking trails yet downtown shops and restaurants are only a short walk.

From the minute we entered the Crosby House we knew we were in for a treat. It was raining outside but the inn was warm and cozy. Fireplaces were lit and the smell of freshly made apple cake aroused our taste buds. Our room had a fireplace and the softest sheets I have ever slept in. This stay was right in the middle of our seventeen day trip to New England for the fall colors and it was the best B&B we stayed at for our entire trip. Great food too! Don't miss a stay here if you can help it.
A lovely B&B

We have stayed at many B & B's over the years and this is one of the best! Lynn & Rick make you feel welcome in their home. They have thought of everything to make your stay most enjoyable, including little things like a night light. Terrific breakfast and delicious apple pie! Our next trip to Vermont will certainly include another stay at this wonderful B & B!
