This simple but well-appointed hotel has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The guest rooms and suites in the main house come with Frette linens, fireplaces, and mountain views—though for a more secluded option, opt for one of the three cottages (essentially the Kimpton Taconic’s take on traditional Vermont cabins). Guests can enjoy the free morning coffee and tea service, though for something heartier, don’t skip the Copper Grouse tavern. It’s the hotel’s on-site restaurant, and consistently serves up warming dishes that pay homage to the area, like cheddar ale soup and cider-brined chicken.
- Amenities: Fitness center, seasonal heated pool, pet-friendly, on-site restaurant, yoga mats available

For a true country inn experience, stay at the Rabbit Hill. No two suites are remotely alike: in one, you’ll find a rustic cedar four-poster bed set against tartan wallpaper, while in the next room over, a California-inspired, honey-colored design scheme awaits. Start your day off with the free breakfast, pop in for afternoon tea, and end the night with marshmallow roasting at the fire pit or a martini in the British-inspired pub. When you’re not snacking, book an ATV tour of the country roads or try your hand at canoeing—the hotel can help you set up a host of activities, so you’ll never be bored.
