The space
Barnard is one of Vermont's best kept secrets. An outdoor lover's haven! Home to Silver Lake State Park, hiking, biking, local farms, theater and so much more.
Your suite is located on the historic 1796 property that was the original crossroads to Woodstock. Enjoy the acres of perennial gardens, walking paths, & find yourself out back at a private pond with a gazebo.
Also located on property is The Barnard Inn Restaurant whose chef acquires locally grown food for the freshly prepared menus. Open Thur - Sat, walk on in to the tavern or make a reservation for the dining room.
Barnard is near Woodstock, South Royalton (Vermont Law School), Hanover (Dartmouth) and Quechee. It is a central destination for access to local dining, culture and skiing. Just 10 minutes from Saskadena 6, literally you are on the VAST trail & not far from Killington & Pico.
Guest access
Guests access the Third Floor Suite from the second floor of The Barnard Inn Restaurant.
Guests arrive and park wherever convenient. Then walk up the side staircase to the upper porch. There you will find a lockbox (a code will be sent to you on the day of your arrival) for the keys you will need to enter through the French doors.
Once inside, remember to lock the French doors behind you.
Upon entry there is a shared full kitchen and a long hallway leading to the staircase up to the Third Floor Suite. At the top of the stairs there is keyless entry to the rooms also with the same code.
Please enjoy the shared spaces and remember to clean up after every meal for everyone's comfort.
Please remember to lock the French doors every time you leave and enter for everyone’s safety. Thank you.
Other things to note
The entire third floor of the building is all to yourself. There are spacious & light bedrooms with reading nooks and a shared den with a TV, kitchenette. The kitchenette is designed for your convenience with a coffee maker, tea kettle, mini fridge, microwave, dishes, drying rack & a large dispenser of fresh drinking water. You may at any time go down to the shared kitchen on the second floor, but we designed this with our guests' convenience in mind to be able to tend to the small things on vacation in the comfort of your suite. The beds are made with white luxury linens, also included in the bathrooms. You will also find shampoo, conditioner, body soap, hair dryer & a clawfoot soaking tub.
There are many beautiful shared spaces and these areas would only be shared by a few guests because there is very low traffic in this building.
