    Mushroom toast

    Great food. Amazing mocktails. Family dinner atmosphere which was very welcoming. The steak was done perfectly and mashed potatoes very good

    Maple Soy Foraged Mushroom Pate
    Heather M.

    What an exceptional experience at Edson Hill! With at least 2 weeks advance notice, Edson Hill was able to accomodate us vegans. And wow, did they blow us away! Edson Hill arranged a pre fixe menu for us. - The Brussel Sprouts cooked to perfection, savory, smoky, hint of sweetness, and nutty from the pignoli dukkah and salt. - The Arugula and Beet Salad was so fresh, a beautiful balance of spiciness from the arugula, earthy sweetness from the beets, and sweetness candied pecans, and brightness from the dressing. - The Fig & Radicchio Salad was one of my favorites and what I will be dreaming about! Savory and smoky from the radicchio, subtle sweetness from the figs, varied textured with candied pistachios, and Chef Dylan's take on a vegan burrata... chef's kiss! - The Maple Soy Glazed Foraged Mushroom Pate was sourced from foraged mushrooms on the property (And Chef Dylan's mushroom guy is vegan!). What a treat! The broth was so umami and delicious! The pate wrapped in napa cabbage was so beautiful and a nice hint of sweetness from the maple and yams. - The Peach Streusel was a lovely finish, nice balance of tart, sweet, and richness. A sincere and serious thank you to Chef Dylan who's vegan cooking blew us away and could feel his passion in making exceptional dishes and experiences, Lei who helped coordinate our reservation and correspondence and the entire Edson Hill staff who made our experience so memorable. It far exceeded our expectations on service, the food, and I cannot thank you enough! We come to Stowe every year and will definitely be back if you will take us! I highly recommend Edson Hill as your next special occasion out when in Stowe. Thank you!

    We knew it would be difficult to get a Fri-Sat reservation (we tried for several weeks), so we opted for a mid-week one. Edson Hill is exactly as others have described: intimate, cozy, warm and delightful. There is a comfy waiting area with fireplace; the bar downstairs has a lovely lounge with fireplace and views of the pond and mountains. If it was warmer temps, there's a beautiful brick patio outside. We nabbed a 5pm seating because I had class at 8pm and we wanted sufficient time to nosh and relax beforehand. We took a walk around the grounds, which are quite lovely. My understanding is that there is sometimes live music outside on the lawn, which sounds fun. The bartender was very friendly and their special cocktail menu changes all the time. Our server was pleasant, but I have a feeling she is used to a certain type of clientele. One of the first things she mentioned was that there would be no substitutions on the menu's main dishes. We hadn't intended to make any (not our thing), but I can see why this might be necessary to mention. We didn't see a main dish with sides that we truly wanted, so we decided to order several appetizers and make enough room for dessert. Our server seemed a little surprised that we weren't ordering main dishes (and having worked in the industry, I know what she may have been thinking). We started with two bowls of the Butternut Squash and Carrot Ginger Soup, which is served with kale chips. It was potentially vegan, as it appeared to be a velouté without cream (nut or dairy). I wish it had a bit more salt, but it was otherwise tasty. We followed that with an order of the Cider Glazed Pork Belly, which was served with micro greens, apple and pickled jicama. It was delicious. We also ordered the Fried Brussel Sprouts with smoked maple, pine nuts nutritional yeast, and Parmesan cheese. They were fantastic. We also had the Roasted Beets with beet molasses, candied pecan, chèvre and pumpkin powder. Also excellent. For dessert, we ordered the Flourless Chocolate Torte, which was served with cherries, pomegranate and a maple whipped cream. It was very good. All in all, it was a delightful mid-week meal out. I'll come here for après ski this season, to get cozy downstairs in the lounge.

    Room 11

    My wife and I spend 3 magical nights at Edson Hill during peak foliage October 2024. Our room was located in the Hemlock House adjacent to the Manor House (which houses reception, the restaurant, the downstairs tavern in addition to several guest rooms). Room 11 was immaculate. Amazingly comfortable bed, perfect pillows, superb views of the property from our windows and a cozy (gas) fireplace with a large brick hearth and a nice tea/espresso station. I believe some rooms do have wood burning fireplaces as we saw the wood stacked outside other rooms (if you prefer that). The restaurants were great but we favored the tavern for its more intimate and authentic pub atmosphere. The included breakfasts were amazing and quite possibly the bacon the best I've ever had. Staff were personable and gracious. We cannot wait to return in the future.

    Food Service Atmosphere Had the Smoked Octopus, Foie gras, Steak Frites & The Duck. Go before the bugs come out.

    1000% yes! Edson Hill is warm, welcoming, homely and good to go solo, on a date or group. From start to finish, the experience is exceptional. I was welcomed by Peter, and another young man who were extremely kind. By the way, this is a review for the restaurant located within the inn. Michelle was my server and every recommendation was a hit; the scallops, beet salad and duck were spectacular! The McBride sister's Sauvignon Blanc was the perfect pairing and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Please check it out and enjoy!

    The environment is great and service is excellent. We came here in a non peak season so food was very fast, server is attentive and view is great. The food is good but nothing really stands out to justify the hefty price tag.

    Halibut dish with fingerling potatoes
    Aliz U.

    AMAZING! Placed on a beautiful landscape, you can enjoy a gorgeous view while you dine here. The building itself was very inviting and cozy; while we were waiting for our table we were invited to the living room which was a comforting area filled with couches and art on the walls. Additionally, the dining area had nice tables and everything just fit with a modern- rustic type design. In regards to food, it was delicious. For appetizers we ordered the brussel sprouts and charcuterie board and were not dissatisfied by either. The board had a variety of cheeses that were all great and some side dips like hummus and a fruit spread. The brussel sprouts were salted and seasoned perfectly, I just wish the portion was bigger. Entrees I got a halibut dish that just melted in your mouth!! LITERALLY!! And for dessert we enjoyed the chocolate hazelnut panna cotta along with poached pears and sweet potato cookies. All were perfect and not too sweet- which we experience at most restaurants. Definitely pricey, but would go again!

    View from the restaurant at breakfast.

    Top notch experience all around. I had heard amazing things about this place and it did not disappoint. The rooms is unbelievably cozy and they really thought of everything. The bed might be the most comfortable hotel bed I've ever experienced, the heated floors in the bathroom was an unexpected touch of luxury, and the wood burning fireplace was fantastic. We dined at the restaurant for dinner and breakfast, as well as enjoyed drinks from the tavern. It's difficult to find bad food in Stowe, but the restaurant at Edson Hill was the best food we had during our stay. Make sure you make a reservation for dinner at least once while you are there. The tavern is also worth visiting. The decor is super cute and the drinks were fantastic. It's also worth mentioning that the staff could not have been nicer. They were warm, friendly, and extremely accommodating. The tavern and restaurant are closed 2 days a week, but the manager went out of her way to get us a beer anyway when we had time to kill before our dinner reservation in town. Finally, if all of this wasn't enough, the grounds are breathtaking. There isn't a corner of this property that isn't picture worthy. We will definitely be back.

    Could not recommend staying here more! Every detail is perfected. Was not super impressed by the dinner, but drinks were fantastic. Top tier organization!

    We decided to head east to celebrate our anniversary and settled on the Stowe area as our destination. I found Edson Hill online and we made that our base for our 4-night visit. Edson Hill is a beautiful and quiet country inn consisting of a main lodge and several 4-unit manor buildings spread around the wooded, mountainous property. You really feel like you are away from things up here and have no problem seeing the night sky littered with stars. Our room, #14, was in one of the buildings just up the hill from the main building and featured a beautiful king bed, wood-burning fireplace all set up for us, a cozy day bed, modern bathroom and decent sized room. Pluses: -beautiful grounds-peaceful setting away from hustle and bustle of Stowe yet short easy drive to town or other attractions -comfortably furnished room with ample space -EXCELLENT wood burning fireplace with plenty of easy-to-light dry wood and kindling-we had a fire every night! -friendly, helpful front desk staff -genial host/owner Eric ch cos in with people-spot him wearing a red vest -breakfast is included -the have a wonderful restaurant but you need reservations for dinner Opportunitities -breakfast service (nice that it's included) but service really leaves something to be desired-especially on the weekend days when it was grand central station right when they opened. No one tells you how it works when you check in (FYI: breakfast opens at 8, there seems to be a mad rush right when it opens as when we arrived, usually at 8:30 the muffins and juice were largely gone. Also, as to the menu, there are two choices each day, or you can get basic eggs, and there is usually sides like sausage, bacon, potatoes). On our second day the server forgot to submit our order-clearly still learning. -bed-I think the mattress in our room has seen better days and was a bit saggy-we rolled to the middle each night Overall just a few minor annoyances-a great place to stay and I wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

    Very Disappointing Experience - Would Not Return…read more Our first night at the Stone Hill Inn in Stowe was fine. The room was clean, well-appointed, and we had no issues initially. However, the experience declined quickly. Breakfast was mediocre at best. The omelet was bland, and the oatmeal felt like an afterthought -- disappointing given that breakfast is part of what you're paying for at an inn like this. The second night was where things truly went wrong. There was no hot water. We specifically booked this inn for the jacuzzi tub after a long hike, which was the main reason for choosing this property. Instead, we had to check hourly to see if hot water returned, never did, and ultimately went to bed dirty from hiking with no ability to shower. The following morning, the situation escalated unnecessarily. The innkeeper confronted me and aggressively asked me to step into the kitchen, accusing us of breaking a toilet and shattering porcelain on the ground. I was shocked and told him I had no idea what he was referring to because we did not damage anything. I asked for a moment to understand what he was talking about and was told, angrily, that I had "one minute." I declined breakfast that morning -- which was unfortunate since that's one of the supposed highlights of staying here -- and asked if he would like to inspect the room before we left. He refused. I even offered for him to look at the bathroom to see how it would have been impossible for us to damage the toilet, and again he declined. Importantly, we had tipped the innkeeper who cleaned the room, who reportedly found the alleged damage and cleaned it up -- yet noted nothing to us and showed no concern at the time. The belligerent and accusatory behavior of the innkeeper completely overshadowed any positives from the stay. This is not how paying guests -- especially those booking for a romantic getaway, honeymoon, or special occasion -- should ever be treated. We will never return, and I strongly caution anyone considering this inn, particularly if you are looking for a peaceful, romantic experience.

We had also wanted to rewnew our vows and hoped to use a room in the Inn. We knew there would be an added fee (and would have gladly paid) for the use of the room but never expected the unprofessional behavior from the owners! They wanted to plan the event or we had to have it elsewhere. Not considering the fact that our anniv is in the winter, "why not have it outside". ‍ In our talks and emails I was reminded upmteen times "we are a business". (duh)! When I cancelled our res (5 mos out) they wanted to fine us. And called our officiant and yelled at her! Someone needs to teach them Hospitality 101. To be fair, we never ended up staying there. The lack of their knowledge of what a Guest is, kept us away.

The fact that the story was true and that this famous singing family settled in Stowe, VT because it reminded them of their homeland, well, it's been a long-time dream of mine to visit the Von Trapp Family Lodge in Stowe and feel the connection in person. And so I did... in July 2025, some SIXTY years after seeing the Sound of Music. We actually didn't stay here, which seems kind of odd considering what a fan I am. Now that I know how much there is to do in Stowe... and at the lodge itself, perhaps if we come back with plans to stay longer, I would stay here. The Von Trapp Family Lodge has so much to offer a person... whether one stays here or not. These are some of the activities: 1. Hiking 2. Mountain biking 3. Skiing / Cross-country skiing 4. Horse-drawn carriage rides 5. Sleigh Rides 6. Disc golf 7. Yoga / Massage 8. Bicycle rentals 9. Tennis 10. Swimming 11. Rock Climbing Wall 12. Indoor arts / crafts / culinary classes 13. Wine and/or beer tastings 14. Choice of 4 restaurants We thoroughly enjoyed walking around the lodge and grounds and learning more about the family and the history behind the lodge. Since this (ironically) my 1700th review, it's fitting that such a special place falls on a noteworthy review number.

Stunning bridal suite. Plenty of space. That is why we originally selected it as our wedding venue. What we didn't know at the time is that we were hiring some of the best wedding professionals in the business - the dynamic duo of Steve & Jenn. I am not exaggerating when I say I'd get married pretty much anywhere as long as they were running the show. Let me start with how incredibly responsive they were. As a wedding vendor also, this is something I greatly appreciate. I would ask a question and get a response usually within 10 minutes. Jenn & Steve made everything pretty effortless for us. Steve helped us with bar selections, table lay out and set up specialty cocktails. Jenn coordinated with all of our vendors for arrival times, set up and take down. We were able to drop off all of our decor on a Wednesday and Jenn had it all set up when we came Friday for our rehearsal. What a special treat for our bridal party and close family to be able to preview the venue with the majority of the decor set up. A review of our wedding day: we had downpours in the morning and in to the afternoon. The team at the Barn set up for an indoor ceremony just in case. Our ceremony was at 4:30pm and downpours came again at 4:15. As I (the bride) was coming down the stairs the clouds parted and I gave the nod to have the ceremony outside - probably right at 4:30pm. Jenn had the team dry off chairs outside not once, but twice after 4pm and we were able to have our ceremony outside, just as we had envisioned. I doubt you will find this level of flexibility anywhere else where you can literally make the call at the very last minute - it meant everything to us to be able to get married with the mountains in the background. The rest of the night was absolutely flawless. Steve made sure to bring us cocktails during dinner, Jenn brought us an array of apps so we could enjoy our cocktail hour while photos were being taken. I had no idea what time it was all throughout the night, but Jenn made sure things were executed on time. She clearly is a professional and seems so chill but is also so organized and direct when she needs to be. The Barn is no doubt the best place to get married in Vermont. I wish I could do it all over again - every moment was absolutely magical. Thanks Steve & Jenn for our perfect day - look forward to working with you both as a wedding vendor and getting to visit the place we got married often.

Jen and Steve have created a space that is both chic and elegant, while retaining the signature VT charm. Every detail has been thought out, from amenity baskets for guests in the lovely restrooms, to an en suite shower for the bride to use on the day. From the beginning of our discussion with the wonderful owners, we knew we had finally found our venue. My husband and I had our makeup wedding (after two Covid postponements over the past three years) this past weekend and it was nothing short of magical. Jen and Steve were kind enough to work with us, graciously accommodating our schedule changes, as well as being incredibly flexible as the scope of our day shifted from a large 180-person shindig to an intimate 30-person DIY experience. They allowed ultimate personalization: granting me the opportunity to come on the property the day before to setup our table spread per my vision and providing a delicious signature cocktail along with our open bar. With every interaction, the owners make you feel special and excited for your day, as if they are close family friends celebrating with you. Our guests noted the quality of the bar selections, as well as the delicious catered food provided by Sugarsnap. We all agreed that the meals represented the best food anyone had ever experienced at a wedding. Kristen was a delight to work with as we coordinated our culinary selections for the big day. All and all, this is the perfect venue run by caring and thoughtful owners and their incredible staff. You cannot beat the natural beauty that surrounds this soulful space, nor the gorgeous interior. Do yourself a favor, and reach out to them ASAP to save your date!
