Turn of River Lodge

reasonable price, homey, rustic, cozy, no frills, perfect for classic Vermont old school stay

This place was so nice- we will absolutely be back. The lobby/downstairs was very pleasant and had a nice, warm, calm vibe. The staff was kind, warm, and accommodating. Everything was great. Always a nice fire in the fireplace, nice table to eat on, comfy places to hang, lots of games, an electric piano and community fridge. It was an awesome place to bring our 4 year old and relax after bedtime. FYI, you might have a shared bathroom by floor (in case you care.) The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars in cleanliness is because our floor dearly needed vacuuming- all kinds of odd things from past inhabitants under the bed. The beds, bathroom, linens etc were all perfectly clean. Again, this is a nice, affordable place.

Very friendly staff and guests. Old school, low key rustic vibes.

Unexpected lovely community experience. Truly enjoyed meeting other travelers. Breakfast was more than I expected. The shared bathrooms are very clean and tidy.

We had booked room with Private bathroom but we were given room with Shared bathroom as all rooms with private were occupied. Looks like this hotel is misleading the customers by describing all rooms as "Private or Shared" bathrooms. They should explicitly mention for every room if it has private bathroom or not. By putting "OR" in their description, they end up getting bookings for customers who may think that they will get private bathrooms.

The stay here was unfortunately masked with a febreeze smell from the minute we walked in the door. Makes us wonder what are they trying to cover up? The bed was incredibly comfortable & room was very clean. The uneven height in the stairs needed to access inside the front door & upstairs would be difficult, if you had mobility issues.

Make no mistake, these accomodations are pretty basic. Room was small - barely fit the bed and room to walk around it. Bed and pillows were comfortable. Smallest shower stall I have ever seen. Price was very reasonable. Staff were friendly. Breakfast was the typical bagels/muffins/oa**eal/coffee variety. Road noise if you left the windows open due to proximity to US-4. Lots of board games to play in common area.

Toilet did not work said prior to arrival they had this issue when arrived was put in same room with broken toilet and no hot water. Not acceptable

It was nice and quiet. The staff was very welcoming.
