We've stayed at the Mad River Inn a few times over the past two years, and while it's not posh, it is an excellent B&B for the reasonable rates, with everything we need when staying in the area. The innkeepers allow you to feel very much at home; I don't think I've stayed at an inn of any kind where... More

Have been staying at this Inn every year since 2008. Each spring I travel to Vermont from Canada to ride Icelandic horses for a weekend. The accommodations at the Mad River Inn are fantastic, I have never been disappointed! The food is excellent, the rooms are bright and comfortable, and the inn keeper and his family are delightful. Always a... More

My mom and I spent a relaxing weekend at this cozy inn, enjoying the last hurrahs of winter in Vermont. It was the second time I had visited the inn, and I was very happy with my decision to return. There is a cozy ambiance to the place that makes you feel at home the minute you arrive. The owners... More

Friendly people/comfortable beds/lovely accommodations/great food! We're hoping to stay here again! I would highly recommend this spot for a restful weekend getaway. We really enjoyed the delicious gourmet breakfast! Our cozy room was a perfect size. We enjoyed the family charm and especially our special music treat after breakfast! Thank you!

We had the Mad River Inn recommended to us by a friend who's been going there for years to ride the Islandic horses. I was a bit skeptical, as my girlfriend and I had never stayed in a B&B. What a PLEASANT surprise we had! From the cleanliness of our room, to the Hot Tub on the back deck, to... More

We stayed at the Mad River Inn while on a hiking trip in September because it was the most reasonably-priced B&B in the area with a vacancy. We were DELIGHTED with our experience. The house is lovely, welcoming, clean, and comfortable; the grounds and views are stunningly beautiful; there's an awesome pool table and huge lounge area in the basement... More

My wife and I have been staying here every year for more than a decade. We love the Victorian decor, the comfortable rooms, the warm fire in the common area, the pool room downstairs, and the hot tub on the deck. Breakfasts are delicious and alternate between sweet and savory. Luc, the innkeeper, is very helpful and friendly. His family... More

We stayed there for new year weekend and ski at Sugarbush. It's about 15min from the mountain which isn't too bad if you knew up front. Breakfast were amazing. Bed and pillows were not comfortable for me and I didn't get a good sleep (maybe it's just me, but maybe they need to invest in better pillows). Other guests and... More

I stayed at the Mad River Inn on six weekends during the summer of 2012 (I love riding at the Vermont Icelandic Horse Farm). The Inn is located in a gorgeous and serene spot in the Mad River Valley and has a warm Victorian feel. The rooms are comfortable and very clean, with private bathrooms, and are excellent for relaxing... More

This is an old farmhouse that has been maintained pretty well. It is rustic in nature on a very quiet country road. Breakfast was very good served by Luc's daughters who were very well suited for the job. If you are looking for a rustic setting in a beautiful location this is the place for you.
