We stayed at The Veranda House Saturday July 9, 2011. The room was very clean, comfortable, and exactly what we expected from a B&B. We spent more than an hour sitting on the front porch and found that extremely relaxing. The only trivial complaint was the size of the bathroom, which was small but that was not an issue because it was sparking clean.

Breakfast on Sunday morning was very good. Our hostess Yvonne was very polite, courteous, and took the time for a special request from me for Waffles, which were excellent. There were two other couples at breakfast and we enjoyed their company and the conversation.

If and when we return to Rhinebeck, we would definitely return to the Veranda House.

A very relaxing stay, in a quiet comfortable room, with a charming hostess, and delicious breakfast. The perfect location for exploring the area.

We stayed at the Veranda House for 5 nights over the 4th of July weekend and were very satisfied with both the accomodations and the service. The beds are large and comfortable with a lot of extra pillows. The bathroom for the "Forget-Me-Not"room is spacious and modern, with a lot of amenities.The breakfasts are generous and very good, especially the home baked coffee cakes and muffins. Yvonne (the innkeeper and breakfast chef) was flexible about breakfast times and graciously accomodated our special requests. There is also wireless internet! Rhinebeck is a lovely town, with many attractions nearby. Enjoy!

While the inn was in a modest state of maintenance due to some exterior painting, the accomodations were pleasant and the inn was charming assuming you enjoy Victorian surroundings. Rooms were of adequate size and although the bathrooms were quite small (formerly closets for the rooms of the previous home) they were well equipped. The linens and beds in the rooms were quite nice and comfortable.

The room included a full breakfast which was excellent and prepared by the innkeeper, a charming lady formerly from England (Yvonne) who proved to be a very good host (or hostess if youn prefer).

In the sitting room, there was wine available as well as ice if you provided your own beverages. While there was cable TV should you want it, the TV was quite old and could use some updating.

All in all, the stay was enjoyable, the price/value of the rooms was very good and the town of Rhinebeck and surrounding countryside was exceptional both from a historical/cultural standpoint as well as from a pastoral perspective.
