My wife, son, and I stayed at the Colonel Williams Inn for one night on 6 Oct 22. The inn is a truly enchanting place to stay. Our room was advertised as being able to sleep four. More on this later. The inn sits on a hill overlooking a beaver pond. In the morning I took a walk around the beaver pond and a beaver was out swimming around and slapping the water with its tail. What a fun experience. Later I was told there are four beavers that live in the beaver house. Then my wife and I took a walk up Staver road (dirt) and were knocked senseless by the beautiful fall colors just a short walk up from the inn. Then we headed back for breakfast. The inn is a BnB. The coconut and pineapple muffins we had were absolutely delicious. Then we had grandfather's secret recipe waffles, and they were equally delicious. Throughout our stay our hosts for breakfast and upon arrival made us feel right at home and were point on in always trying to please. Back to the room. The room was on the second floor up a tight staircase which only added to the inn's charm. The doors to most of the other rooms were open and we enjoyed peeking in. The inn itself never locks its doors so you can come and go with ease. In our room my wife and I slept on a king bed which was very comfy. Our 39-year-old son slept on what some would call a bed, but it was more a board with some bedding on it. It was very hard and not at all comfortable for him. That's my only negative comment for our whole stay. His bed definitely needed a better mattress. The inn does have a nice family room with a big screen tv. There was no tv in our room, so for tv watching the inn's family room was it. We did have a bathroom in our room with a shower and everything worked perfectly. All in all, we loved our stay. What a wonderful Vermont experience for my wife. It was her first visit to Vermont and earned her admission into the Fifty Club - Vermont was her last state. Yea!
