Most everything was excellent. Exceptions, 1) our mattress was atrocious! We rolled to the middle and our backs are killing us this morning. If not for that we would have probably given 5s across the board, but the mattress ended up coloring everything else. 2) We suggest some breakfast items with protein as well as some savory bread. Most everything was sweets.

We loved the view of Lake Champlain and the quietness of the area. There was an event going on one night but they were gone by the time we returned around 7:30. Continental breakfast was good. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom very clean and roomy for two people. I would return!

Nice quiet get away place. Beautiful porch that opens from your room to sit and enjoy a sunset or start the day with coffee and a sunrise looking out over the lake. Rooms are good size and comfortable. Amenities were available as needed. Highly recommend!

Michael was great to work with on a need we had. He was pleasant, timely, and accommodating. Excellent place to stay. The bed was clean and comfortable, and the room was cool in the summer. It had a small fridge, microwave, basic kitchen needs, a convection plate, and a sink with some dishes and glasses. We would stay there again in a heartbeat!

a most picturesque hotel at an historic site

the "pre-packaged" Breakfast was "convenient" but really the kind of breakfast available in a convenience store at a petrol station. Packaged food swee4t bun, a stale and dry orange (inedible), decent Yoghurt, mediocre coffee in a box for each guest, and no interior dining room (just outdoor terrace too cold for comfort. But the location is SUPERB, overlooking the lake and A SPACIOUS terrace balcony facing the site of one of the most crucial battles of the American Revolution that stopped the British invasion of Lake Champlain and helped ensure American vistory at Saratoga the foloiwing year.

Disappointing

This room has a 100% view of the parking lot, no partial lake view. The bed is uncomfortably soft. The shower door doesn't close well enough to keep the water from the bathroom floor. It's a lovely setting but not good value overall.

This is unique, well kept, historic property with all of the modern amenities. We attended a wedding of a family member over the Labor Day weekend. Views are stunning, facility in very good condition, quiet, and easily reached, via rail, air or car. The wedding food was good, but again cooking in a boathouse has to be a challenge. All in all it was a fabulous venue for a large gathering.

Valcour Inn was an unexpected gem. The waterfront property with gorgeously maintained grounds was a wonderful place to relax and recharge. With only a few rooms it was always peaceful and quiet. I have no plans in that immediate area but will go again just to stay at this establishment

Great location to relax and unwind. Both the Inn and its surroundings are kept in very good condition. Unfortunately, it is not meant for travellers without an internet or phone connection, as there is no personnel to greet you upon arrival. We struggled with the access code, as we did not receive instructions prior to our arrival. Luckily, the boathouse was open and we got help from them. There was dust, lint and dead bugs in the room. Not a big deal for us, but worth mentioning so management can take action. The mornings become noisy, as the cleaning staff start early their activities. Adjustment to these observations would make for a great place to stay.

Beautiful property, clean and comfortable room. It is a historic building, so there is not a lot of toiletry space. We loved the availability of water and coffee and ice at all hours, that was a wonderful amenity, and you could not beat the view! Just gorgeous! Close drive to Ausable Chasm (why we were there) and to many restaurants. Would definitely stay again! Thank you!

Paradise along lake Champlain.

I had amazingly comfortable time at the Valcour Inn and Boathouse. This is the first time that I stayed at a property where I had zero interaction with a property employee. At first a was a bit hesitant because I thought, what if I need something? I didn’t need anything. Everything I wanted was there for me and I slept like a baby every night.
