I was VERY lucky to find a room at Lareau Farm Inn a week before the solar eclipse on April 8th, and at a most reasonable price. My luck aside, we enjoyed the rustic decor and settings of this inn; we especially appreciated the hospitality of the staff and the yummy cook-to-order breakfast offerings included.

Took 10 minutes to get evrn luke warm water! Went to look to see if there was ice, the girl was very snotty and said whatever is in the icebucket! We we did not even know wherr the ice bucket was

Perfect room for my needs. Planned to catch a big snow storm to ski at Sugarbush. This place was 10 minutes away. I stayed in the Forgiveness room where the bathroom was down a short hallway. It was no problem. The living rooms were warm and cozy. The snow was so heavy the first night it shorted two transformers and shut off power to ALL of Warren county, even the entirety of Sugarbush! Staff remained calm and friendly and helpful. Next two days were great skiing!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. As a family of 5 it’s often challenging to find options that can accommodate us all in one room. The “Patience” room was perfect. Everyone had a bed (no pullout needed) and the room was on the 2nd floor so very quiet. It was clean and cozy and having The Flatbread restaurant right there was an added bonus. The complimentary made to order breakfast off their gourmet menu was terrific as well. They have nice common area space with fire place and games and a shared fridge if you need to store things. We would definitely come back. Stacy, Inn Manager, and her team were fabulous.

Only stayed one night. A bit odd to never see the owner/host. But the breakfast cook made up for that by providing a breakfast to order that was tasty and beautiful. Beautiful old farm house with great antiques and cozy reading rooms. The facility could improve the experience by adjusting the thermostat upstairs. The hall way was cool while our room was hot because the hallway had the thermostat. Plus, the cracked toilet seat made things a bit uncomfortable.

We expected an en suite bathroom, but it was not. The mattress we slept on, needs to be refreshed. The light fixtures need an update and better performance. The common rooms were very comfortable and well stocked with books and entertainment.

The Inn is situated just outside of the quaint town of Waitsfield on a beautiful property. The staff were very friendly and the complimentary breakfast was amazing. We arrived on a day where the restaurant was closed, but I think it would have been great food as well. I didn't expect modern from a B&B in Vermont but the accommodation could definitely use some upgrades. Getting to the room up the very narrow and steep stairs was treacherous and the bathroom is in need of some work. Also, the bed part of the bed and breakfast was not great. Some new pillows and a mattress that isn't the one from when the house was built would have been nice.

Nice place to stay.
We enjoyed our stay here. The room was very nice. A warning though...the Peace room and the Respect room have the bathroom sink in the bedroom...not in with the toilet and shower. So, if you don't want that, do not get one of those rooms. Breakfast was very good. You have a number of options to choose from the the chef cooks for you.

The Lareau Farm Inn is a charming B&B that functions wonderfully as a ski lodge in the winter. It is quiet, clean, furnished so as to create a comfortable, warm, intimate and social space for fellow lodgers, and serves a terrific breakfast. The rooms are clean and spare but a little drafty. Remember to bring your own soap and shampoo, and be prepared to clean your own room every day, as there is rarely any staff or help on site. This is for travelers who prefer a minimal, quiet, clean, intimate space rather than a luxurious, plush, spa treatment with boutiques nearby. Lastly, the adjoining American Flatbread is a neighborhood hotspot, serving good flatbread pizza and a nice selection of local brews.

Look at another place!
Place is shabby and run down...clean enough but virtually no room amenities, sink clogged and did not drain, shower lukewarm, pillows hard, bed mattress cheap, really lost its appeal and charm of old farmhouse lost on the shabbiness and lack of basic room amenities. Needs TLC and even a minimum facelift like painting and refinish of the floors as well as providing bed side tables and how about some outlets!
