I was automatically attracted to the Williams River House when I saw the pictures on the web, but nothing compared to the actual B&B. It is so well kept, the views, the well-manicured grounds, the back porch, I was treated like a special guest invited to their home. There is a huge fireplace in the living room, it was cozy and warm sitting there at night after a long excursion day reading or just relaxing.
I was in the East India suite, very spacious and clean, love the antique furniture and the reading nook. The service and attention I received on my 3-day stay there was just impeccable. The hosts, Mark and Geoff were always genuinely interested in making me comfortable. Breakfast was the best thing ever, Mark knows how to make a mean french toast, that was so delicious!
Collette, the house manager also helped me with some great sightseeing ideas: I loved the location, the Country Vermont Store is only a few miles away as well as downtown Chester, not too far from Grafton, another little quaint town.
I had such an amazing time in VT, and staying at the Wiliams River House made it so fantastic and will definitely go back there. I strongly recommend this B&B if you want an unique experience that large hotels cannot give you.

We did not stay overnight but attended a wedding here. This is a beautiful spot for a wedding. Beautiful, casual,idyllic setting. There are terraces which overlook a stream with rock benches with lush cushions and chairs,a gorgeous, one of a kind railing and romantic lighting. The innkeeper was incredibly attentive and seem to anticipate everyone's need. I know the bride and groom and their families were very pleased. What a beautiful spot.

Gorgeous property, wonderful hosts AND you have your own private tavern on site - what more do you need?! Relax in the living room with what has to be a 6 foot high fireplace, grab a book or dvd out of the library, enjoy a glass of wine on the back porch or deck. We've stayed in many B&B's but have never had an experience like this - only 4 guest rooms so it's never too crowded but there are so many different common rooms that guests are welcome enjoy!

Oh and the country breakfasts each morning are some of the best we've ever had! Mark, Geof and their wonderful manager Collette made our wedding about as perfect as it could have been! The dogs, cats and chickens outside made it so fun and friendly.

We already miss these guys and we haven't even been gone a week yet! You may come in as a stranger but you really will leave feeling like a family member.

Cheers to the Williams River House for creating such a wonderful place!!

This Inn is immaculate and gorgeous. The level of detail in all of the gardens and rooms is exceptional. We recommend it to all of our friends going to Okemo and visiting Southern Vermont.
