Originally built as a few cabins to accommodate visitors in the 1950s, 506 On the River Inn has rebuilt itself as a boutique guesthouse. Only a five minute drive from the center of Woodstock, a charming example of a Vermont town, it is the ideal base for exploring this scenic state. The area is surrounded by beautiful farms, pastel-colored clapboard houses, and covered bridges, and the region really comes to life in the autumn when the trees burst into color. Owned by a family who hail from Woodstock, you can be assured of a down-to-earth and friendly atmosphere, with delightful staff keen to ensure you get the most out of your stay.
506 On the River Inn has just thirty well-appointed rooms, each with a king or queen-sized twin beds, air-conditioning, armchairs, WiFi internet and balconies with rocking chairs overlooking the pretty lawns and river beyond. The decor throughout the property is a mixture of light cream and chocolate colors, with antique furniture and comfy armchairs in every nook and corner.
There is a comfortable lounge with fireplace and terrace where you can enjoy breakfasts overlooking the pond, and an antique bar where a friendly barman will serve you fine wines, local beers or cocktails. A traditional country breakfast is served each morning and included in your stay, and bistro-style dinners are on offer and a popular choice with guests.
Other facilities include a gym, indoor swimming pool, games room (ideal for teenagers, with pool table, TV and arcade games), toddler playroom and badminton raquets and footballs for use on the lawns. The back of the Inn stretches down to the river, flanked on each side by trees, and sunloungers and adirondack chairs offer the perfect place to unwind and take in the serene surroundings.
