When one thinks of Vermont, the images of open fields and pastures filled with cows, integrity and purity come to mind. Now tourism meets agriculture, with the big red barns, hand-picked stone-wall-lined fields, covered bridges to artisan cheese makers, wine makers and organic produce farms that guests are coming to enjoy.

Historic Bridge Street in Waitsfield is the first local landmark on your directions. The imagined quintessential Vermont town now becomes reality... a covered bridge, a country bakery, a specialty teddy bear shop. Shopping our Vermont craft fairs, farmers markets and galleries are just a few of the favorite activities of visitors.

  • Canoeing/Kayaking: summer

  • Snowshoeing: The Inn has it's own 30K of groomed trails for snowshoeing. Additionally, our guests have full use of Ole's Cross Country Center trails, where rental equipment is also available.
    On Saturday and Sunday, we offer Round Barn Snowshoe Tours for $25 per person! Departing after breakfast, snowshoes will be provided for a one and a half hour tour of our favorite trails with the best views of the farm and surrounding mountains! Snowshoeing is very easy to do, no prior experience is necessary. It's a great way to "work off those Round Barn pancakes" and enjoy the fresh air and snow. Private group tours and extended day tours as well as advanced terrain tours may be arranged!
