Annual Ski Trip Get Together
The place was great for our annual ski trip. The house comfortably accommodated our large group of adults and children. The bedrooms are larger and quieter than we expected. Separate bathrooms for each bedroom allowed each family to feel like they had their own space. Definitely would recommend.

great place for a family gathering
large, well appointed bedrooms and baths. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook, and tables for the family to gather in. Living room was small, but fine to cozy up for book reading. Grounds were beautiful with fascinating sculptures.

Very Satisfied
This house has a great layout. It had a modern kitchen with everything that you would need. The mattresses were very comfortable with quality linens. Charming New England decor. Laundry room with modern washer and drier. The property is beautiful with stunning mountain views. Although you see pictures on the website sometimes you're not sure what you will get . This house looks better in person! I will definitely come back.

Such a beautiful place!
Our stay at Wilburton Inn was fantastic. We enjoyed the spaciousness of the house and the grounds. The staff was so friendly and helpful - thank you Michelle for your warm welcomes each afternoon when we came in for coffee and treats. Melissa sent us suggestions of things to do during the week, especially since the weather was cooler than usual. She even dropped off a lawn game and a brand new fire-pit to "warm up"... Of course, the kids enjoyed roasting marshmallows and making s'mores in the evenings. Visiting the farm/bakery, Earth, Sky, Time is a definite must do. Everything there is delicious! We also enjoyed their food at the Inn's Wednesday night dinner. We really enjoyed Manchester and look forward to our next visit to the Inn.
