Getaway Packages
Giddy-up and go!
We’ve teamed up with Plan B Stables in Chester to give our guests an unforgettable experience.
For $200 per person (includes our gourmet lunch-to-go), you can enjoy a half day ride on their safe, steady and fit horses. After a delicious breakfast at the inn, we’ll send you down the road (about 10 minutes) where your Plan B guide will outfit you with a helmet and get you saddled up. Then off you go through the hills of Vermont!
Meander through wooded trails lined with old stone walls and clear mountain streams, clip clop along country roads and ramble through wide open meadows. There will be plenty of photo opportunities. 
Half way through your trek, your guide will hitch up the horses for lunch.
How about a Black Watch Farms’ smoked pastrami chilled Reuben with creamy horseradish and green onions or a Grilled Vegetable Panini with Vermont Creamery Goat Cheese and a basil aioli? Savor a couscous salad and quench your thirst with our Blue Basil Colonial drink (made from our fresh basil and blueberry syrup paired with sparkling water). Finally, top it off with a coconut macaroon brownie.
(Please note: No open toe shoes – sneakers or hiking boots are perfect – and there is a 250 lb. limit per rider. Bring check or cash to pay the stable directly.)
Call ahead to make reservations when you book your stay at the inn.
Learn to fly fish with a pro…
Instead of taking your chances with a borrowed pole and a marked up map, we’ve reeled in third generation New Hampshire fly fisherman Steve Rowe to give our guests a first class experience.
Imagine a certified fly casting instructor taking you out on the Black River or to a private pond within walking distance of the inn!
Located just a few miles from the inn, this stunning rambling river is known for having the best trout fishing in Southern Vermont.
For four hours, Steve will teach you how to read the water, drag free drift, select a fly and catch and release fish. (If you want to pick up a one-day fishing license at the corner market, we’ll pack what you catch on ice and you can take it home!) Cost: $235 per person/$115 for additional person – sharing same guest room (Steve supplies all the fishing equipment except waders…)
How about fishing at a Private Trout Club?
If you’d rather cast in a pond, Steve will take you to a classic 100-year old private Trout Club in the remote hills of central Vermont!
After an early gourmet breakfast at the inn, you’ll head off to the secret location where you’ll learn all about fly fishing – from the reel to the leader to how to tie a clinch knot. Steve will have you casting, shooting line, roll casting and even mending techniques.
In case you get hungry, we’ll send you off with a packed gourmet lunch.
$400 per person (Equipment provided and no waders or license needed) $250 for additional person sharing same guest room.
Available Dates: June 22, July 20 or Aug. 17, 2013.
