Listed
on the National Historic Register, the 1824 House Inn resonates with
all the charm and elegance of yesteryear, while retaining the
convenience and comforts of today. The abundance of natural light is a
primary theme, as sunlight streams into the house. Richly colored
walls, hardwood floors, and numerous oriental rugs provide a rich
background for carefully selected antique furniture and artwork from
around the world. Our rooms have been described as "airy and
relaxing". The décor is eclectic yet warm and inviting. The Inn
has seven guestrooms each with private baths. The
Inn has few restrictions and guest are welcome in all areas. Food is
the focal point. Guests typically join us in the kitchen telling
stories, sharing the day's experiences, sipping wine and sampling
foods. We want people to feel comfortable and relaxed. You will find
the Inn warm, friendly, and home like while maintaining the quality
and standards of a fine European hotel. We are committed to your total
comfort and enjoyment.
The living room is
large and cozy. A fire is a stoked nightly. Afternoon tea and treats
are available each day. Hors d’oeuvres and a complementary glass of
wine are served on Saturday evenings. The inn has an extensive
selection of CD’s and guests are encouraged to relax and listen to
music. An antique upright piano is available for guest use, as are
several board games.
We do not have televisions in the rooms because we feel that it would
detract from the peace and tranquility of the inn. We do, however,
have a very informal TV room where guests can gather and watch cable
TV or videos.
1824 House Amenities
In addition to great rooms and exciting food The 1824 House Inn
offers a few additional items that are special and Unique.On Saturday
night around around 6, we invite guests to gather in the living room
around the fire and enjoy one or two appetizers accompanied by a
complementary glass of wine. The Inn has an extensive collection of
CDs, which are available for the guest's enjoyment.
The Jacuzzi:
Tucked away at the back of the inn, behind the barn, we have an
outdoor Jacuzzi. Guests are invited to sit under the stars and unwind
after a hard day on the slopes or trail and enjoy the beautiful view
of the back pastures.
The River:
The inn owns two acres on the Mad River. Summer offers a swimming
hole, boat portage, or a fabulous picnic spot. Winter provides access
to the Mad River Trail for miles of unrestricted, free cross-country
skiing (provided the river is frozen).
Dining at the 1824 House

For innkeepers Jack & Carol, food preparation is a creative
outlet. We constantly strive to develop new and exciting meals. We try
to create "full bodied" flavors that will awaken and entice
your taste buds.
