Had a nice off-season stay at this property near Killington. Perfect for couples. Rooms are quiet and comfortable. Hosts are friendly, helpful and provide an excellent hot breakfast each morning. Close to several eateries/bars if you want to make a short drive down or up the hill in the evening. None of these off-site amenities are very walkable, however. There is a small bar/lounge on-site, but don't believe it was open when we were there. Very close to the ski resorts if you go in winter. Relatively steep drive up to the Inn from the state highway so you may want to ensure you take a 4wd or AWD

We very much enjoyed our stay at this quaint family run location and both Bill and Mary made us feel very welcome. Rooms were nice and clean, and the common areas were very cozy with a roaring fire during the cold winter nights. The location was perfect, less than a mile from Killington and only a few miles from Pico mountain. The on-site restaurant was excellent with world-class food. Would love to get up there again!

We’ve been going to Killington for about six years stayed in several different B&B. Birch is by far the best one. Bill and Mary are great hosts and Mary’s baking goods in the breakfast are delicious. If you manage to save some for later in the day, they make great snacks between rides. Rooms varies in sizes, amenities and prices. Some have fireplaces some have not, but that will be clear when you make the reservation.
The lounge is very comfortable and great for an evening glass of wine.
They also took several measures to make the stay safe during COVID times, if I recall the order correctly

This inn is nothing shy of perfect. Run by the kindest couple, they do everything they can to make sure everyone's stay feel like they're staying with family. The location is unbeatable (5 minutes to the mountain), the included breakfast is delicious and made to order, the room is clean and comfortable. If you choose to have dinner there (highly recommend), the food is absolutely delicious. Couldn't have enjoyed the stay more.

My husband and I had a beautiful anniversary dinner at Birch Ridge Inn, and I would definitely recommend the restaurant to anyone looking for a cozy, delicious experience in Killington. The ambiance was very memorable -- from the adorable covered bridge you drive through, to the architecture of the inn, to the sweet greeting from innkeeper Bill. We felt like we were visiting someone's home, and we could definitely sense Bill's passion for the place.

I just spent New Years Eve 2021 at this pleasant, cozy and atmospheric Birch Ridge Inn. What a way to end a tumultuous year and begin another chapter. From the minute we entered with our host Bill greeting us to his lovely wife, Mary making us classic cocktails to start our evening and top service from Marissa....it couldn't get any better. But it did get better with a 5 Star dinner. Compliments to the Chef.....Thank you for making this evening with my son and his wife a night to remember.

The bar at the Birch Ridge Inn is a hidden gem. The food is delicious and the cocktails are great. The high ceilings of the A-frame paired with the gorgeous Christmas tree make it my favorite spot to dine at during the holidays in Killington. Add it to your list for a great date night or drinks with friends.

Cute little old school spot. We tried it out on Valentines weekend. You have to drive under a low clearance tunnel when you go so be careful if you've got the Suburban loaded with a ski rack. The food was good French inspired cuisine. Nice to go if you're looking for romantic intimate place for dinner.

Hostess and server were very nice. Decor and atmosphere is quaint. Appetizers and small plates were good, we had baby arugula salad and an assortment of cheeses.
The reason for the 3 star would be, filet came out medium, I ordered rare, this is fundamental. The other reason would be, there is a staging area for wine bottles, instead of leaving the bottle at the table, and the table next to us topped off a bunch of glasses with our bottle. This was not the servers fault as they took it upon themselves and I wasn't positive it was our bottle till our server grabbed the same one that had been

This Inn has a gourmet restaurant. The present chef has been there for about 2 years. Primarily locally sourced ingredients and ecologically aware, it was a lively evening made even better by the astute attentiveness of the server, Sally.
An ideal getaway with a challenging drive up the road for outlanders which the owners are happy to help you.The owners are engaging and present. The blackened scallops were delicious, ; blackened on one side , cool in the center and spiced well.
The wine list was excellent with decent pricing though I was momentarily surprised when my Prosecco was poured from

Food is OK, nothing to rave about. Duck breast was awesome, lamb loin chops not so much. I asked for medium rare, one was very close to rear, the other one was medium. It seemed like the 2 chops were not cooked at the same time, quite possibly one of them might have been reheated. And charging $40 for 2 chops, a few asparagus spears and some potatoes seems a little too much. I did not taste any cheese in their crab and cheese fritters. The plate of 2 fritters the size of a golf ball and a bunch of arugula (not dressed in any way) will set you back $18. Way too much money for very mediocre food

I can't recommend this inn and restaurant high enough. We stayed here for two nights (a homemade, full breakfast is included with your stay) and also had dinner here on a Saturday night. The restaurant is open to the general public. Everything we ate was delicious and the environment was one of fine dining, but still cozy.
If I am in the area again, this would be my number one pick hands down.
FYI: Only one room at the inn has a mini fridge, most do not.

I am reviewing the restaurant only, as we have never stayed in the inn, but have visited the restaurant numerous times. Bill and Mary have created an amazing dining experience in a area that lacks fine dining. The food, service, and ambience are excellent. Since the menu changes frequently, I cannot comment on all the dishes, but can discuss what we had on our most recent trip.
Appetizers included the duck, spinach and strawberry salad, escargot, and cheese plate.
I did not sample any, but family said duck was great, as was the salad. The spinach was slightly wilted, which gave it a delicateness

If you are going to Killington, you must stay at the Birch Ridge Inn! After spending a long weekend here, I don't think I would stay anywhere else unless I scored a deal at the Grand Hotel (and that would just be for the ski-in/out convenience). Bill and Mary, the owners, have set up a warm, welcoming, quiet place to lay your ski boots at night, and they are truly wonderful and gracious hosts. Spend some time in the great room/bar and get to know them; you will feel like you are staying in a friend's home. This is what an inn/bed & breakfast experience should be. This is not your

Wow, this place is a gem! I went here for dinner with my husband and it was a fabulous experience. The Inn's restaurant is worth a visit even if you're not staying overnight.
It was a plus to find out that much of the menu is locally sourced with an emphasis on seasonal ingredients. That tells me the Executive Chef really cares about the ingredients and the "bigger picture" of where our food comes from.
Many different flavors and textures are represented on the menu. However, there are classic offerings that provide a "comfort food" appeal.

Of all the restaurants I have been to, this is by far the best. Who knew such a treasure was tucked away in Killington.
Everything was absolutely perfect. We had a dinner for 2 and the dining room happened to be empty that night. We started with the chicken soup and who knew such a simply dish could be so surprisingly delicious. Then we had the pork chop and duckling breast. I have had duck before and there are so many ways to go wrong in preparing but this dish was PERFECT. Moist, tender, and flavorful. We finished with the creme brulee for dessert, which was fantastic since it wasn't overly
