Black Lantern Inn

What a great little country inn. Friendly owner and staff. My room was comfortable and had a nice old fashioned charm to it. They also serve fantastic food, a real find.

Lovely clean rooms with a continental breakfast within 8 mi of Jay Peak. We were only disappointed that the restaurant was closed Sun-Wed as we had looked forward to trying the food!

This quaint hotel nestled in the mountains offered excellence in terms of cleanliness and service. We were fortunate enough to arrive on a night where they had opened up their bar to the locals and had live music. We sat in the front porch and enjoyed chatting with several people. The owners are very welcoming.

This was our second stay at this historic, lovely & comfortable inn. Our room #2 had a king size bed & a separate sitting area which could have accommodated another adult or small kids on a foldout cot in the closet. Furnished with a mix of contemporary & vintage furniture. Very clean. Showers have great water pressure. The mini breakfast in the inn’s bar/restaurant includes delicious homemade muffins. The restaurant is open for dinner—only on Thursdays & Fridays at present. The area is semi rural but located near Montgomery Center, St Alban’s & Enosburg where there are restaurants & other amenities like the Eloquent Page Bookstore, worth a visit for the book lover. Six wooden covered bridges to explore in the area; at one of them we even met a 5th generation descendant of the original bridge builders, the Jewett brothers. The Black Lantern Inn is a wonderful place to enjoy a relaxing getaway. Definitely recommend 👍

we certainly enjoyed our stay.. Dinner was downstairs. so after a long day of skiing it was pleasant to eat and go back to our room. I know it said continental breakfast. I guess I had a different idea of a continental breakfast. since we were the only 2 people in the Inn at the time I didn't expect hot food but there were no options. There was 2 tiny muffins and 2 yogurts. and fruit juice and coffee. No real fruit. And no live person... I heard someone downstairs but when we came down at 7:30 there was no one to help us out or ask for anything else My spouse ate both muffins because he hates yogurt . I got the yogurt.

Black Lantern Inn is a cozy place to stay. The exterior may be showing its age—1803!—but the interior exudes lots of character & charm. It’s listed on the National Historic Registry. Easy check in. Our Rm 6 was spacious, clean, quiet, with comfy & some vintage furnishings. All rooms appear to be on the 2nd floor & there's no obvious elevator (it’s an old building after all). Caveat re: our bathroom: toilet seat is loose & needs to be screwed tight; & don’t flush toilet while someone’s showering. Luckily this shower is roomy so hubby was able to dodge the sudden blast of hot H2O! The shower had a corner bench & jets along the bottom which we didn’t use. Had pleasant interactions w/Catherine, one of the very nice hosts. They were very responsive to our needs & gave great restaurant recommendations. Each morning we enjoyed a continental breakfast in the bar—muffins, yogurt, juice. Great coffee & the homemade muffins were a treat. Catherine said there are 5(?) families who rallied together to reopen & maintain this lovely historic inn. We applaud them. It’s a welcome change from a chain hotel. We look forward to staying again, hopefully the restaurant will have re-opened. Definitely recommend this charming getaway in Montgomery VT, with scenic covered bridges & waterfalls nearby. One comment: some of the border wallpaper in Rm 6 is starting to peel from the wall though this didn’t affect our stay. I’d just hate to see it pull away more.

No host, just our name with a key. Ladybug infestation was awful, but they were all over the state. Keurig coffee, canned juices, muffins and good yogurt on the bar in the morning. We didn’t have a chance to eat at the restaurant downstairs but the menu looked absolutely amazing!

It’s quiet, clean, no hassle country Inn. Wish there were more sitting area near fireplace. Only dining seats. Would love to sit with a book and relax with my morning coffee.

Great place to stay, owner is so friendly and restaurant is incredible !!

We enjoyed staying at the Black Lantern. Would definitely recommend! Their dining had excellent food!

Very quaint place. Check in was super easy as our room key was just sitting on a table when we walked in the door, with our room number on it (makes me wonder if there was another key already taken by a random person). The staircase was steep, narrow and STRAIGHT UP!! Wasn’t expecting that!! Glad we are not handicapped, as this was mentioned nowhere! Room was clean and comfortable, even had our own fireplace. However, the bathroom was TINY, then a light burned out so doing hair and makeup was a bit challenging also not enough towels, but nobody around to bring me any?!?! Restaurant downstairs was convenient but very mediocre at best. Our stay could’ve been worse, definitely wasn’t the best, but not many choices in this remote area

The room was clean and serviced as we requested. Kathy, Mary and Kyle were very friendly and attentive. We enjoyed the rustic charm and the beautiful foliage. The dining room was warm and cozy, food was very delicious.

The Black Lantern Inn goes back to 1802 and is in the heart of Montgomery, a small rural town in far northern VT. The room was spacious, clean with a comfortable bed. Nothing fancy - mostly vintage furniture. Checkin is curious in that there is no desk person as such but your key with a paper with your name and room number on it is on a bench in the vestibule as you come in. You can contact the owners by text or phone as needed. The bathroom en suite with a good shower. The dining area is attractive and, while I didn't eat a full meal there, friends of mine who have had dinners there say the food is very good. They do provide a modest continental breakfast. There is a lot of beautiful scenery in the area and the Inn is not too far from the Jay Peak ski resort. Quebec and its beautiful towns is only a short drive further north. I enjoyed my two nights at the Inn and would not hesitate to return.

Very clean and comfortable. Nice older building with character. Restaurant is VT awesome.

Very unique and beautiful 1800’s inn. Quiet and very relaxing.

It was missing basics like kleenex and a paper cup. It hasa fair amount of noise being so close to the road.No hot water for taking z shower.

This bed and breakfast was quiet and had great food. We did not like that there was a step into the bathroom. It was also not air conditioned and quite hot.

Friendly staff

I gave everything a five-star review, however this is an unstaffed property so the service I mentioned was related to housekeeping and whomever put out the breakfast. I never saw anyone, however, all communication I had with them via email was excellent. I also noted that I enjoyed the area. However, the restaurant at the hotel and all the restaurants in this immediate area are shut down from Easter until May 15th.

The room was clean and serviced as we requested. Kathy, Mary and Kyle were very friendly and attentive. We enjoyed the rustic charm and the beautiful foliage. The dining room was warm and cozy, food was very delicious.

We never encountered a live human being! Phone goes to voicemail never answered by a person. Rustic to say the least!

Very cute, cozy and comfy Inn with plenty of New England old farmhouse charm. Cathy - the property manager - is very nice and super attentive to guest needs.

Very cosy and comfortable. Very good service

Cozy place. Not far from Jay Peak. We had a light continental breakfast provided by the Inn in the morning and then went skiing at Jay. Had a good experience and would stay there again

Excellent accommodations and very comfortable. Disappointed restaurant wasn’t open, but I understand it was because of a health issue. We’ll be back!

Lovely clean rooms with a continental breakfast within 8 mi of Jay Peak. We were only disappointed that the restaurant was closed Sun-Wed as we had looked forward to trying the food!
