Item Description

This summer, escape to a carefree address at The West Dover Inn for a getaway of homespun simplicity. 

You and the king or queen of your heart will step upon the welcome mat of this historic Vermont hideaway in the Deerfield Valley for a two-night stay.

Cross the threshold into your new digs—which are more than 150 years old—and make yourself comfortable in the cozy surroundings. Light a fire in your personal fireplace and enjoy an included bottle of wine and cheese tray atop your soft bed.

In the morning, as the sound of your complimentary breakfast stirs downstairs, follow the appetizing smell to a seat in front of French toast served with butter and Vermont maple syrup, or traditional eggs Benedict with home fries. Then, mosey out on the shaded porch with your included map and follow the trail to the local waterfall and swimming holes. After cooling off with an energetic breaststroke, enjoy a prepared picnic under the sun.

You could spend your time on the water with your half-off discount on kayak and canoe rentals, or your heart can guide you to rent a bicycle for a ride to Skip Morrow's Art of Humor studio. While there, you will receive an artist's tour of the world-renowned illustrator's works and two autographed books.

Pull on listeners' heartstrings with stories about your memorable day during dinner at the inn's 1846 Tavern & Restaurant. You'll have a $50 credit to order roasted duck or Chesapeake crab cakes along with your vanilla ice cream sundae for dessert. Have a drink (or two) at the bar, and if you're around for a night of live music and magic, don't be afraid to groove.
