Guest Comments

"Living at the Inn was heaven! We couldn't believe our luck in finding this place."
Lisa and Peter Espenshade

"Five stars! My apartment was magical. I would recommend it to any business traveler. After a 16 hour day on the set, it was great to come home, sit on the porch, look at the view, and relax!
"Matt Birch, Jan Goldstein, Dreamworks

We stayed at the Inn while our new home was being built. It was convenient to our jobs in Burlington. The apartments were beautifully furnished and impeccably clean.Jane Ann and Steve Kantor

"This is such a unique and beautiful spot; an historic building with astonishing views of the lake, just at the base of Mt. Philo in Charlotte. They are true, high-end extended stay option. Each fully furnished apartment/Suite is 1400+/- square feet, wood floors, antique strewn, cozy, clean, but not fancy or fussy."


Ellen Biddle, Lake Champlain Region Chamber Of Commerce "Mt. Philo Inn is a doorway to experiencing country living in the beauty of the Adirondacks, Lake Champlain and the Charlotte countryside. Living here at the Inn provided a much needed respite from the hassle of the city, allowing me to return to a calmer state of being. All things are provided here for you; there is little else that goes wanting."
"From the windows of the Mt. Philo Inn you can reach out with your eyes and drink in the beauty of Lake Champlain, the Adirondacks and rolling farmland. The full moon here lights up the land and the skies are filled with numerous stars. The Inn is more than a cozy, comfortable, pleasant place to stay...it's a state of being that lingers with you long after you have left and urges you to return again. I miss it all the time!"
It's how I feel about your place...it is wonderful and magical...at least it was for me. I found many things I needed to renew within myself during my stay with you guys!! The only thing that kept me from staying on was my inner need to feel more settled with my own belongings surrounding me. Hope to see you all soon!!!
