Rabbit Hill Inn

The River Mist room was perfect for us. The anteroom took care of the issue of one person getting up early, and one person sleeping in. Breakfast was varied each morning and very tasty. Dinner at The Carrot was very good; preceded by a glass of wine on the backyard deck. We did our first Stave puzzle! Thank you for accommodating our electric bikes and having a place to charge them. The paved and (mostly) gravel loop we did from the inn was very scenic; passing farms and fields, hills (quite a few) and valleys, rivers and dams. Staff (Heather and Alexa) were great! We'll see you again. Barb & Bruce

It was our 25th Wedding Anniversary. We got the primo room, which was private, had easy parking, and the bathroom was the size of the bedroom! Included a delicious breakfast; warm & wonderful staff. Dinner was optional. Had tea and cookies from 3-5; offered antique wooden jigsaw puzzles if you wish to be challenged; chocolates by the bed. Gas fireplace with 2 chairs; inside; porch on the outside. Superb!

We are well-seasoned mature travelers. Run, don't walk, past the Rabbit HiIl Inn! Idk the expectations of other reviewers, but we found the reality to be very different than the website. New ownership by a hotel group and overturning management since 2024 are advertising and charging based on the hard work of previous owners/innkeepers. The accomodations and cuisine do not match the high expectations or cost. We found nothing romantic here. We paid lots of money for the loft, which has a great window to the back yard. The stairs are awkward, the outdoor sitting area was not pleasant, furniture inside was not cozy, and woodsmoke from the firepit just below the only window that opens permeates the room. We only stayed one night of two and didn't use the tub, but the bathroom was covered in hard surfaces and we suspect would be quite loud with the tub jets running. In fac,t there's a card that says don't use after 10 pm due to noise. We ate in the Tavern, which seems to serve the same menu as the dining room. My chicken taco was decent but not special. My husband's airline chicken was ok but the pasta was not. There is no gourmet breakast. We were served coldly by a person we later learned was the day innkeeper. She did not greet us, introduce herself, or make us feel welsome. She rudely offered oatmeal without us being told the rest of the menu. "Is that ALL there is," my husband asked? No, thankfully there was oj, coffee, a scoop of greek yogurt, granola and muffins of grocery store quality, and the ultimate gourmet breakfast sandwich of ham, egg, and cheese on a muffin. Granted it was food, but not what we were expecting given the build up or price. There is nowhere in walking distance to get any supplemental food, and each time we went for coffee in the common room the urn was empty. There's no coffee maker in the room and no way to make tea. Also, be aware as stated in other reviews, there is an automatic 20% gratuity added to your overall bill, yet tip plates are presented at meals and in the room. Tacky. I own that we had a dispute with the daytime innkeeper over designated smoking areas. I was well outside their stated outdoor distance but was still accousted about smoking in the room and given a $200 room cleaning fee, but all I have written is honest. The current day innkeeper posesses neither the training, talent, nor temperment to do her job well. This is reflected in other reviews if you look. If you MUST stay here document everything! We're giving a score of two because the bed was comfortable, we liked the window, and other staff we interacted with were kind. There are so many more beautiful and inviting places to stay in Vermont. Keep scrolling!

Spectacular room with soaking tub, books, relaxing music, board games, WiFi. Quiet but friendly atmosphere. A quaint inn with relaxing vibes. Close to New Hampshire and Canada. Worth the going rate which includes enough country breakfast to satisfy you for the day.

We were thrilled to be the guests of Rabbit Hill Inn in Lower Waterford, VT. Alexa and Heather took care of our every need and imparted the history of the Inn to us and made us thirsty for more information about the area. The room accommodations were great and the bed afforded us a good night rest. The afternoon tea was a welcomed event in front of the fireplace but was, sorry to say, only second best to the fabulous meals we were served in the 24 Carrot. Chef Chris will do wonders with the presentation and flavor of the meals offered that will change daily. We had smores on the veranda, tea in the sitting room, fabulous meals at the 24 Carrot and a good night's rest in an area of Vermont that is rich in history, what more could one ask. If you would like to get away in a quiet countryside retreat that will spoil you moment to moment and to no end, then the Rabbit Hill Inn in Lower Waterford, VT is the place where your dreams will come true.
