Great hotel
The hotel was very inviting and cozy. There’s a microwave & mini fridge in the room which came in handy for leftovers. The breakfast was a great grab and go or sit in and eat in the common area. No problem parking and getting around. It’s close to ski resorts, a market/gas station and restaurant. And the staff is super friendly and helpful.

Best place to stay
Great place to stay and the owners are the best. We had 4” of new snow overnight and when I went out side in the morning to ski Stratton I discovered they had cleaned the snow off my car!

It was located in a beautiful area. The hosts provided gluten-free options as part of the continental breakfast. That was a plus. In a safe environment - slept with the windows open.

Overall, the Lodge at West River is a decent, clean, secure, comfortable place to spend one night. The property-- which is actually a motel, not a lodge -- sits next to a surprisingly busy secondary road. For the price, I would have expected more ambience, softer sheets, and on-site dining. I will say the home-baked breakfast treats look amazing (alas, no carbs for me!) All that said, the staff and owners are welcoming, helpful and responsive. And that can be rare these days.

Excellent!
Beautiful location - older inn but well maintained. Some traffic noise but thanks for the complimentary earplugs. Best stop on our whole vacation. Breakfast was amazing -local and fresh. Handy small grocery nearby. Outdoor seating and fire pits. So nice. Loved it.

Great spot for our trip to see the eclipse in April 2024 and for Vermont sightseeing. Very clean, comfortable room. Pet friendly but no smell of others having pets there. We'd definitely stay here again.

David greeted me warmly and gave so much local information. I asked about the EV charger and although it was in use when we got there, it was available and so convenient when we got back from dinner. He even offered to move us to a room closer to the charger, but I said not to bother. The building is not so big that it is any inconvenience to walk the length of the building. Bottom line, we have been pleased so far. It's a shame we are only here for one night. This would be a great home base to explore the area.

Solar eclipse 2024
We stayed to see the eclipse the next day in Peacham VT. We wanted to be away from the crowds. We had cinnamon raisin toast and oatmeal for a quick breakfast. The room was clean and and fresh smelling as a non-smoking room. The bathroom was clean , the beds were comfortable, the hotel was quite and peaceful at night. TV was great with our Netflix account. The front desk staff was very courteous and polite and helpful with info about nearby events and services. All said it was a great stay.
