    We stayed for two nights at the Elliot House on our seventeen day trip to New England to see the fall colors. I was very surprised to see such a beautiful home waiting for us at such a great price. The owners have set the house up beautifully and you really felt a part of the family. This might have been due to the fact that we had similar backgrounds and interests, but even so I think they were just super nice people. The grounds are fantastic and I got a photo of the most magnificent sunrise from my bedroom window! The location is perfect for visits to Burlington and the Shelburne Museum, as well as other beautiful areas in the vicinity. Well worth a stay for sure!

    Anne and George are delightful hosts, generous, accommodating, and well-informed about their beautiful area of Vermont. Clean, comfortable rooms; tasty breakfast and afternoon tea and cookies; quiet location, convenient to Shelburne/Burlington activities. Beautiful vistas from the rooms at the back of the inn.


    Two thumbs up, will go back there.

    We truly enjoyed our stay at the beautifully restored Elliot House. Anne & George were terrific hots. Anne was particularly helpful as a "tour director" with suggestions & directions for places to eat and to visit. The setting, the rooms - including a library & sitting room-, and the breakfasts were superb! Neil, Cathy & Laurie
