3 Best Hotels in Woodstock, Central Vermont

A night at the Woodstock Inn, one of Vermont's premier accommodations, is an experience in itself, with a location on the gorgeous village green that's hard to beat. Guest rooms are contemporary and luxurious, with country-chic furniture; white, subway-tiled bathrooms with marble floors; wood-burning fireplaces; and handcrafted bed frames. Amenities include a spa with eucalyptus steam room and cedar sauna, game room, tavern, the Red Rooster restaurant, and fitness center.

You're likely to fall in love at first sight with the main 1828 three-story brick building here, the centerpiece of this 15-acre retreat, but wait until you see the spring-fed pond, which has a white sand beach with toys for kids. Many rooms have a fireplace or a Franklin stove—some have private decks or terraces—and the on-site restaurant, Ransom Tavern, serves up some of the best wood-fired pizza in the state.

Many rooms in this immaculate motel have decks, and most have fabulous views of Ottauquechee River, which runs right along the building. The rooms are simple—a step above usual motel fare—with four-poster beds and wing chairs; rooms in the annex known as the Cape have hot tubs.
