Sue could not have been more welcoming or a better chef! She has every detail covered - from bathrobes to in-room chocolates to self-serve coffee & fruit - and she has transformed this historic 120-yr-old Queen Anne style home into a great B&B. Sue asked in advance if we had any food preferences, and she was more than obliging in... More

My boyfriend and I have stayed at the Kimball House 3 times now and have never had anything but a wonderful experience. The house sits on top of a hill, which means wonderful views over Hardwick from the porch, the living area and from 2 of the 3 bedrooms. Sue's hospitality makes you feel right at home, and her carefully... More

Kimball House is a wonderfully B&B with authentic period decor and an overwhleming abundance of details, warmth and a generous home-cooked breakfast. Sue is very welcoming and fun and the house is terrifically comfortable and the area perfect: perched on a hill it is still just walking distance from the village with good restaurants.

I've been to a lot of B&B's in my time and this one was the best! Sue takes such pride in running the house. When you're there you can totally tell that the decor has been meticulously tweaked for years so everything has now found a perfect spot. The property itself is wonderfully maintained and you are on the top... More

Kimball House is quirky, warmly welcoming and has the best breakfasts in New England. Sue really cares about her visitors: we had fresh fruit salads, the best poached eggs I've ever tasted, home made preserves and proper tea in a proper tea-pot. Sue's food tastes like real food. You'll also get fantastic views through lace curtained windows and masses of... More

My daughter had a ski race in Craftsbury and the Kimball House was such a convenient location, just 20 minutes south of the ski center in Hardwick, and really affordable. Being in Hardwick also gave us the chance to dine at Claire's--such a fabulous restaurant using great local producers. Kimball House is totally charming but not overdone. The rooms are... More

We returned recently to the Kimball house and could not have been more delighted for the Craftsbury Marathon. The house is spectacular and Sue is a gracious and knowledgeable host. Every detail is perfect. My husband enjoyed the wonderful antique bathtub after the marathon. It did wonders for his sore muscles. Breakfasts both mornings were wholesome.

What a fabulous find! My husband and I stayed at the Kimball House for an overnight getaway and it was perfect! The room was comfortable, the breakfast was fabulous, our hosts were informative and helpful. The view from the porch is amazing and the walk into Hardwick was easy and fun. We will return!

We waited too long in making reservations for our annual weekend cross country weekend with our friends from Washington DC. The Craftsbury Outdoor Center was sold out and with reluctance we tried to find other accommodations. We stumbled across the Kimball Inn and were glad we did. Sue is an excellent and welcoming hostess. The house itself is amazing. The... More
