Description
Circa 1840. Sitting on two acres with birch trees and perennial gardens this renovated bed and breakfast was built in 1840 and maintains a history full of lore and legend. Furnished and decorated in a sophisticated minimalist style, old pine floors reside comfortably with artwork and heirloom Gobelin tapestries from around the world. Relax by the fire in the living room. Elegant air-conditioned guest bedrooms and a two-bedroom suite feature fine Anichini linens, down comforters and wraparound bath sheets. Savor a leisurely hand-crafted breakfast in the dining room. Nap in a hammock, enjoy a private yoga session and schedule an in-room massage. Take a three-minute walk to swim in Silver Lake. The river below the ravine separates the grounds from 55,000 acres of wilderness known as The Chateauguay.
