回聲湖旅館(Echo Lake Inn)

This B&B is a beautiful historic site and convenient to Okemo and Killington. Beds were super comfortable. Some furniture in the room was worn but it was functional and we had hot water in the shower. Public living room area has coffee/cocoa machine, books, and sitting area. Hot tub is in a separate building close to the main house- the space is not designed for a hot tub and so a painting hung on the wall was buckling and mildewy, the ceiling was wavy/buckling from the moisture, and it smelled like mold. It's nice that they have a small bar area offering drinks. Restaurant for dinner is overpriced, though the food was good. Wrap-around porch is sloped and in need of reinforcement. Staff were friendly and helpful but we did not have housekeeping during our stay. Limited clientele during our stay.

This property offerw elegance without opulence. It feels cozy, the food is delicious, the staff all go out of their way to make you feel at home. The hot tub is wonderful after a cold day of skiing or a walk.

What a quaint hidden gem. Recently went for a Murder Mystery Weekend and had a lovely time. The food was outstanding and was the perfect getaway. We stayed in room 25 and had a comfy bed. Small refrigerator was also the the room which was a bonus. Being an old building the walls are slightly thin to hear others but this did not detract from our trip. The staff was wonderful. We enjoyed ourselves and met some very nice people.

We stayed for a quick 1 night getaway. Tom is very welcoming and friendly. The room had the Vermont feel. The Inn is beautiful and cozy with many areas to relax, inside and out. The breakfast was delicious and waitress was top notch. We will be back!

Echo lake inn is a cosy bed and breakfast a few miles from Okemo ski resort. It has a lovely character with a shared sitting room with a fireplace and extremely friendly and helpful staff. We were there for a few days skiing and it was a lovely respite after a day on the slopes. The breakfast was great and there was a games room downstairs with a pool table etc. The only drawbacks are there is no elevator and not a lot of hot water for showers at times. The surroundings are very pretty and it would be a lovely location at all times of the year. There are a number of fun restaurants a short driving distance away.

No hot water for the entirety of our stay. They kept saying that the plumber was coming the next day and when the next day came, they would say the plumber no show'ed. Rinse and repeat every day. They tried to find open rooms with hot water to let guests use as showers, but availability changed by the day. They should have notified guests about the water situation before arrival. They refunded a percentage of the stay back, but only after I asked. I had to ask each day about the water situation and where I could shower. Some of the staff were apologetic, but others not so much, acting nothing was out of the ordinary. It would've been better if they were a bit more pro-active about communicating to guests.

Went with our ski club for 5 nights. Enjoyed the food for two nights. Was in a family room consisting of two bedrooms on either side of a small central bath. During our stay, our ski club filled most of the hotel. None of us could get hot showers on a consistent basis. I think I managed two short warm showers the entire week but had one hot shower in a seperate building. A major inconvenience. And the owner knew of the problem weeks before we arrived. We did get a small refund. The Inn is in need of a major renovation/update. Antique is nice, but the place seems tired except for the Condo building.

Pros: The staff was very friendly. The food was superb. The wait staff in the dining room had to close the curtains to warm up the room even when they said the thermostat was set to 80 degrees. The bedroom was warm. The mattress sunk in the middle. The manager told us when we arrived that the plumbing was iffy and we may get cold water from time-to-time. He said the plumber was coming the next day. The showers were cold throughout our 3 day stay. We would recommend the restaurant.

Such a unique experience! I got to recharge- the inn keepers were so friendly and welcoming- you felt like you were at home! So close to Okemo - a 5 min drive.. food amazing.. a great hot breakfast !!!
