First off let me set the record straight- I really don't like Bed and Breakfasts. I've stayed at…read moresome pretty ones- in Ashland Oregon, in Maine. I just don't like the lack of privacy or the set time to eat or the forced conversation. When I'm traveling I prefer to chill. But this B&B has several things that set is apart and make me like it- a very casual atmosphere- a pretty location- a wonderful proprietor and policies that are different than most B&Bs. First off- there is no set time for breakfast. You can wander down when you like. Second- the lady who runs the place has come up with a brilliant plan- she sets a steaming hot pot of coffee outside your door in the morning so that you can drink your coffee in peace (and privately) before venturing down to the main room. So simple but I've never seen another B&B do that. There really isn't much in Salem NY so you'll only stop here if you happen to be in the area. But if you do and you have B&B phobia as I do you can safely book here. I just remembered the name of the lady who runs it- Laura. She's really nice.

I would have been stranded otherwise, biking legs tired for the day.

Thank you Laura for providing a wonderful retreat from a hard day's ride.

The NEATEST…read more Honestly, such a quiet, calm, serene tiny Vermont-ish 'mansion' that once belonged to renowned artist/painter Norman Rockwell. The house is two-stories and on large grassy grounds surrounded by simple houses, churches and tall trees. Rockwell's Retreat as it's called, is for rent to folks and couples for celebrations & weekend getaway. It serves as a kind of rural Vermont B&B, prices are found online. Inside are large chambers, bright living spaces, a fire place, windows with scenic views, exercise rooms, kitchen bedroom chambers and a deck out front. Artist Norman Rockwell came here to paint the rolling hills and hone his crafted arts, details and painting! Beautiful meandering hikes and views. 5

Overwhelming Owner…read more My family and I stayed there for our cousins wedding. For an old home filled with antiques it was surprising clean and charming. On the other hand the owner was completely overwhelming he would not stop talking to us during breakfast. My family and I wanted to talk about the wedding the night before and plan the day to do some sight seeing around the area, but we couldn't get a single word in with each other, because the owner so obnoxiously kept talking. He had to be the center of attention the whole time. Eventually some of us tried to have a side conversation but the owner kept talking to the others. We then had to talk louder to hear one another so the owner talked even louder. We all felt so overwhelmed after breakfast! In order to plan the day everyone had to congregate in my room with the door closed to get a talking moment away from him. We were so exasperated after that morning. I am so sorry to say this, but the owner has to be made aware of himself and future guests have to be made aware of this as well. About the food. We were served bacon and french toast. Although delicious one would think eggs and fruit would be at least be an option at a Bed and Breakfast.

The bathroom is clean and they even provide some guest toiletries! The kitchen is beautiful and modern. The couches are cozy, the grounds are a dream. Kelly and Dan are fast to respond, and answered all of my questions in a friendly and timely manner. They were super accommodating, and seem to genuinely enjoy hosting guests.

Perfect location for time in Glens Falls but close enough to Lake George and Saratoga Springs that other guests covered all three locations in one day! The Inn itself is beautifully restored by its new owners who are clearly experienced in Bed and Breakfast management. The rooms are clean but simple details in decoration make it unique. Two of the rooms have gas fireplaces, we enjoyed the ease and beauty of them in our room. The lines, pillows and towels were definitely a step above what you find staying in a hotel. Appreciated the individual controls in each room for comfort. A nice touch was the small fridge in the closet. It didn't take away from the ambiance of the room but added a feature many Bed and Breakfasts don't have. Breakfast was awesome! Coffee and tea are available at any hour. Fresh coffee is out at 7:30 and breakfast served from 8:30-10. I truly enjoyed tea from a beautiful tea cup and saucer. Nancy and Bill served fresh fruit, I was impressed with the variety they offered for April. The scones, maple one day we stayed lavender the next were cooked to perfection. There were a variety of choices breakfast. The first morning both of us went with the apple crepe with caramel sauce and fresh whip cream.... yummy! I strongly suggest adding the side of Oscars sausage! The second day I went with the poached egg on an english muffin with the sausage. Cooked to perfection. A great getaway for seeing the area but as someone who lived ten minutes away it was a great opportunity for a staycation. Nancy made some great suggestions for activities based on the guests and their specific interests. Nancy and Bill made some great dinner suggestions and even took care of reservations for guests.

Early morning coffee on the front porch, sitting in newly refurbished Adirondack chairs, enjoying a robust cup of specially blended Pond Mountain Inn coffee! Stunning views of the beautiful trees that surround the property and those on the mountain across the way, with different shades and hues of greens. Some mornings not a cloud in the sky, while others have various sizes and shapes of puffy white clouds sailing by on the jet stream. Listening to many different types of birds chirping and to the woodpeckers pecking. Watching a hawk or two soaring on the winds and tiny hummingbirds feeding a mere 6' away. Hearing the gentle breezes rustling through the trees, watching the occasional deer wander down the gravel drive and then bound across the front lawn to the fields next door. Perhaps a red fox trotting across the lawn to drink at the pond down near The Cottage and then continuing his morning journey. The sun beginning to peak over the top of the mountain across the way and starting to warm the front porch. A perfect start to the morning, and all of this before one of Kay's magnificent breakfasts! Life is good, and even better as a regular guest at Pond Mountain Inn!

How often have you traveled through a small town and glimpsed its old, neglected train station and…read morewondered about the beautiful times that must have occurred there? Is that just me? Definitely not because if you find yourself in the sweet little town of Granville, NY, you're in for a treat: Mickey and Wayne have put their heart and soul into renovating the old Granville train station into a stunning bed and breakfast, the Station House B&B. When we arrived late in the evening to check in, Mickey was there to greet us and make us feel at home. And her kindness and grace poured over into every detail: from the historic photos, to the antique tables and chairs, to the timely holiday decorations, to the abundance of mugs and tea, which were always available. For which I say thank you! Because we were traveling in a party of 8, we occupied 4 of the 5 rooms, which was fantastic because that afforded us the opportunity to glimpse each cozy space. Three of the rooms have their own bathroom, but two have a shared bathroom. For us, it was no problem since we were all family. This one minor detail is something to consider when selecting your room. Each space is unique, from the name to the decor. Every detail is thoughtfully selected and creates a welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel like you're coming home each night. Although the walls were a bit thin in our room, the Ticket Office, James F and I slept like rocks, we were so comfy! But it doesn't end there. Gotta get to the breakfast part, of course! Coffee was always ready at 7AM and breakfast at 8AM each morning. Well, oftentimes breakfast was waiting for us well past 8AM because some of our group are late risers. And my god, the breakfast spread presented each morning was fantastic: tea, coffee, orange juice, pancakes, french toast, bacon, ham, pastries, yogurt, pudding, it goes on! Basically, everything to keep our bellies happy and ready for the long days ahead. Truly, what hospitality! To Mickey and Wayne: thank you for creating such a friendly and beautiful B&B! As I sit and type this back in Denver, I'm longing for that wonderful breakfast spread! It was truly a pleasure to stay at the Station House B&B.

We totally can't wait to come back again. Love the place and owners!
