Nutmeg Country Inn B&B

A Sister's Haven in Vermont!!!!

October 18, 2012

We had the most wonderful experience at the Nutmeg Inn! Before we even arrived (on a "Sisters" fall color road trip and were stopping to take lots of pictures along the way!), we got two calls from the Inn to be sure all was well and we didn't get lost and need further help finding the inn. Once we finally arrive there at 7pm, two hours past "wine hour", our gracious host, Doug, met us and took us on a tour and immediately invited us to share in a glass of wine and chat in the most charming bar/fireplace room. His partner, Geo, soon joined us. It was SO cozy, and the perfect "Vermont inn" you imagine in your fantasy travel dreams!! I couldn't help but hug Doug within minutes of our arrival and thank him and Geo for creating such a marvelous place to experience Vermont in the fall (or any time!). Gorgeous flower arrangement in the lobby, and in the stunning dining rooms, and even on our nightstands.....and Geo's wonderful art work and sculpture through the inn, created such a beautiful, yet relaxed and cozy environment. The Inn felt like it was wrapping it's arms around you with a big hug....just what we needed after a long day on the road! Our room (#7), though one of the smaller rooms, was cozy, clean, comfy and just perfect. Our sit down breakfast, ordered the night before and served at the time that worked best for us, was delicious and so elegantly presented in the lovely dining room....a true delight from many B&B's that only offer a serve yourself continental breakfast of cold cereal and bagels and yogurt with a pull top. What a treat!!! And delicious as well! It was our 5th night on the road, and one of our two favorite B&B's on our 11 day trip. I am already planning next fall's Vermont Color Trip and will for sure book several nights at the Nutmeg Inn with Doug and Geo!!! Thanks for a wonderful stay, Guys!! Debb & Cindy Saint Paul, MN

Fall Vacation

October 14, 2012

We only spent one night at the Nutmeg Inn but it was a very good experience. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The Inn is very nice and provides many good amenities. Each night they have a happy hour in the living room area which gives you an opportunity to meet other people staying at the inn. The only thing that was not the greatest was that the room was very small. I could definitely recommend this inn.

Cozy & comfortable

The Nutmeg Inn was quite charming, and a perfect stop for the first night of a 10 day road trip. Located just outside the heart of Wilmington, the room was a good size, well appointed (my husband & I made good use of the fireplace!), clean, quiet & quite comfortable. There were minor details that could use attention: the towel rail fell off the wall in the bathroom when we hung our towels up; the bed frame was missing some finishing pieces & rattled a little, but otherwise, no complaints. The breakfast was quite delicious as well, and we would not hesitate to stay here again!

Passing through, great stop

passing through on our way to Maine - had an acquaintance in area we wanted to try and touch base with - the location worked out great for us. Was a nice find.

Great B&B, but the breakfast choices were limited.

We stayed at the Nutmeg Inn for 3 nights recently. The B&B is well laid out; the rooms are not down a single hall, so it feels like an intimate experience even with 10+ rooms. Our room was nice and big with a king size bed, wifi and really comfortable air conditioning. I also like that for cleaning service, they offered the option to just refold your towels instead of re-washing them. It's a nice "green" touch. The Nutmeg Inn is just .7 miles from Wilmington. Unfortunately, the road to Wilmington is narrow, so it's not advised that you walk there. My only minor complaint is breakfast. The Nutmeg Inn offers only 3 different options - omelette, belgian waffles or French toast. In 3 nights we ended up trying each option more than once. Each meal comes with bacon or sausage. However, since neither of us eat red meat, we couldn't partake, and the Nutmeg did not offer a substitution (potatoes, turkey sausage, assorted fruit, etc.). Other than the breakfast, we liked the Nutmeg Inn, and we would recommend it for shorter (1-2 night) stays.

Thank you for taking the time to write your review. While it was a 4 star review, your concerns did not go unnoticed! We have added a fruit option to our menu for those who don't eat meat. We also offer a "continental" breakfast which includes Oatmeal, yogurt, home baked breads, coffee cake and English scones plus fruit and dry cereal. I hope you'll come back and taste the difference! :-)

Quaint B&B

August 23, 2012

Nutmeg Country Inn is exactly what you would expect from a B&B - cute, quaint, intimate, lovely hosts. Everything was very clean, we pre-ordered our breakfast and ate a nice meal in the morning. Our only complaints - we could clearly hear the people in the next room talking (which, is probably also expected at a B&B, since it's just like a house). Also, the bed was not comfortable at all - it was just old and saggy in the middle and we did not sleep well as a result. The beds and room in general could use a little updating. Overall though, we enjoyed our stay and the hosts were very helpful with area information.

Innkeeper Response
Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We take the Satisfaction of our guests VERY seriously. You made us aware of a problem we hadn't yet noticed. We have only been here a year and we've spent most of our time and energy on the building exterior, public rooms and the larger guest rooms. After reading your review, we have purchased several new mattresses and box springs. We make the beds using 600 thread count ironed Egyptian cotton linens which is our standard. We are working on the noise issue too. As you can see, we acted quickly to remedy your concerns and welcome suggestions to make us the BEST country Inn in Vermont. WE hope you will return someday and see the improvements. Warm regards, Doug Williams co-owner

Great stay at the Nutmeg Inn

Elegant, comfortable, spotlessly clean inn. Delicious and beautifully presented breakfasts. Gracious hosts, skilled staff, attention to all details. Enjoyed the hospitality, can't wait to return.

A wonderful time at the Nutmeg Country Inn!

We liked the Nutmeg Inn so much that, after 4 nights, we extended our stay for an additional 2 days. Everyone there was so welcoming without being overbearing, and the rooms were cozy, well-appointed, and quiet. The breakfasts were great, and we felt like we were at home. We appreciated having a place to entertain other family members who were there for my niece's wedding. Wilmington was charming, and we enjoyed the laid-back restaurants after recommendations from our hosts, who were most accommodating. We couldn't recommend a place more highly and hope to return.
