our inspiration
community
Remember that Buddhist German couple you met while backpacking in New Zealand? The Israeli girl from the hostel in Barcelona who showed you all the bars? The Chilean who played the Native American flute? Yeah, we do too. Back when we traveled light, back when random people were an opportunity to learn something new, not a burden to be avoided.
While not exactly going back there (I’ll take my own shower, thank you), let's bring a little of that spirit into today, to America, right here in Woodstock, Vermont. People go outside a lot here. They care about the disadvantaged. They're nice. Come stay with us and meet some people. see a part of our country that’s as majestic as any Grecian hilltop or Icelandic coast.
Get relaxed. Keep it simple. Don’t spend too much, just enough, so it’s easy, it’s inspiring and it opens up a few portals in your head and heart.
Vesper is our prayer for ourselves and for community. It also happens to be a delicious beverage. Coincidence? Nope. Come friends, find us here, and be!

mother nature
our greatest wish is that a visit to woodstock brings you closer to mother nature. there is no good or bad season to come, the prettiest ones are grand but they are also the busiest. Come when it’s muddy and the weather is confused, and you will be alone on the trail and in the woods. You will feel beyond deserving of the fire, shower and drink. There are at least three mind blowing walks/hikes in the woods, the mountains and the rivers that you can access right from the inn. You don’t have to make plans, have a clue, you just need sensible shoes and we will show you where to go. Reducing anxiety, increasing joy, finding health, has never been so easy and unplanned.
