My friend and I stayed here for just one night, and this inn was the nicest of all the bed and breakfasts we stayed at in Vermont. The couple who own the house are incredibly friendly and welcoming. We arrived around 8:25pm, and didn't realize that most of the restaurants in Vergennes stop serving at 8:30. The woman who owns... more

We were fortunate enough to stay at Barsen House Inn, but only for a single night (*sigh*). Peter and Daphne Jensen are the perfect hosts: attentive but not invasive. We never knew they were there except when they were serving us. Not that they are not personable -- just the opposite. They were such interesting people! The Inn is really... more

We spontaneously decided to visit northern Vermont. I e-mailed on Friday, hoping for a one night stay Saturday. I heard back from Daphne immediately and I called to confirm. She recommended a lovely Bistro in Vergennes and from dinner through our one-night stay everything was charming! The Moonlight Room was appointed beautifully: clean and comfortable, complete with gorgeous artwork and... more

Thanks to Peter and Daphne for opening their beautiful home to me during my ski trip to Vermont! After a long drive from Montreal, I was welcomed with a tasty home cooked meal and a warm fire. The Moonlight room was cozy and I especially enjoyed the handcrafted furniture and art pieces throughout the Inn. I will be back for... more

The rural Vermont experience at it's best !! Lovely house, clean cozy rooms, great food, outstanding hosts. The grounds include a pond, seating areas for relaxation, a garden for fresh produce, and chickens for fresh eggs. Step outside and the views in all directions are spectacular. Lake Champlain is a short walk away. There is plenty to do in the... more

What a relaxing three days! A nice, quiet getaway on scenic Lake Champlain. The Inn owners do everything to make sure your stay is a great experience. From the moment I drove in late at night, I felt the tension leaving my body. I was greeted warmly and ushered to a beautiful clean room with an incredibly comfortable bed. This... more

Nice clean house near Lake Champlain (not on the shores) in a flat farm-land area. Garden pretty but countryside not nearly as picturesque as around and in the villages of Vergennes, Middlebury and Brandon. Difficult to find at night (locals did not know of its existance, no illumination of the house signage). Beware owners cancellation policy of no refunds for... more

Barsen House was the best B&B we stayed in during a weeklong tour around northern Vermont. You simply cannot find nicer accomodation, warmer hosts, or more attractive environs. I recommended this establishment to my parents, too. It's simply fantastic. more

The Barsen House Inn was the perfect romantic getaway for my girlfriend and I. The hosts, Peter and Daphne were friendly and accomodating, while the rooms were exceptionally clean and atmosphere was welcoming and relaxed. The house and gardens are absolutely beautiful and the firepit was perfect entertainment for star gazing in the evenings. Breakfasts cooked by Daphne were especially... more
