The Salt Ash Inn is conveniently located near Killington and Okemo Ski Areas in Calvin Coolidge's hometown of Plymouth, in Vermont. We are just up the road from the Long Trial Brewery, and a short drive to Woodstock. The Inn is a very casual, home-style Vermont Country Inn, think about it as a home full of friends you haven’t met yet. The main building is rich in history and much of our furnishings are antique and rustic. The main building has been an 1830s stagecoach stop, a general store and even a post office. The Inn has undergone many updates over the years and recently underwent a major renovation after damages caused by Hurricane Irene. It now offers 13 uniquely decorated guest rooms (all with private baths, individually controlled heat, TV's and telephones with free domestic calls). We offer warm common areas for lounging or reading, a cozy rustic Country style bar with pool table, gas fireplace, and some of the most unique furnishings you will find anywhere.

We arrived around 8pm and there was nobody there, the keys were left out for us as promised. We were the only guests the night we stayed there so it was quite. The room was clean and comfortable and we had full run of the kitchen the next morning. There was a man in the kitchen when we left but we didn’t speak to anyone our entire visit. This was great for us, we really enjoyed our stay.

I can’t say enough: 1. No one to greet us when we went to check in; after waiting at least 5 mins for assistance, one member in my party went looking for him; his response, when found, was he wasn’t expecting us so early so turned his phone off(the time must have been approximately 3:55 - check in was 4:00!) 2. Our room was on the 3rd floor; after traversing some very narrow stairs to get up there, we found the room hadn’t been prepared for our arrival. A third floor room, with no windows open, was VERY hot and musty smelling. We were given 2 window fans and were told it would cool off in the night. 3. We were furnished towels that had been tossed on our beds. The towels were rough, thin and discolored, 4. There was a hallway off the main room that led to the bathroom. A twin bed was in this room. There was no way this room was ever going to cool off in the night - it had no window. 5. The three of us decided these circumstances were not acceptable and found other accommodations. Al, the proprietor, would not consent to a refund, so we were stuck with the room. 6. We checked on the room the next day and found, at 4:00 in the afternoon, the room had not been cleaned. (We had left water glasses in the room and they were still there.) 7. For all of this we were charged $179 for the 1st night and $98 for the second. Al was only interested in the money and not guest satisfaction. We were spending 10 days in the New England area. It was unfortunate we had to encounter Al and his House of Disgust, but we moved on to enjoy the rest of our time.…

This is not a B&B. We had the room on 3rd floor. When we got to our room around 8 pm it was really hot There is no air conditioner at this place. Our rooms were prepaid which was a mistake. We asked for a refund but the owner Al wouldn’t consider it. He said it will cool down at night. We didn’t stick around to find out. We paid $174 for the first night which is outrageous and 93 for the next night. The bar is closed and the owner was no where to be found. We had 3 towels no washcloths or hand towels. The stairs leading up to the third floor were really narrow and would have been difficult to get a suitcase up. The owner Al, was not a real pleasant person to work with. He was also difficult to find for check in. All in all it was a very expensive mistake to book here.

We chose the Salt Ash Inn because it wasn’t too far from Killington where we planned to ski that weekend and we were able to get it for a great price. We stayed in the attached “cabin” part because we had a large group (9 people). It suited our needs with many bedrooms, bathrooms, a common living room area and kitchen. A perk of this place was the check-in was very easy, they provided us a code to the door with which to enter and we were good to go as soon as we got there. A few complaints though: 1. The directions for where to park that we were given were very confusing as the number in the address did not match the number of the cabin 2. The fireplace in one of the bedrooms with a king bed did not work 3. The towels we were provided had miscellaneous stains on them (luckily we brought our own) 4. After we checked out, we received a call claiming we stole one of their pillows and would be charged $100 for it (we did not) and then a few minutes later, another call saying never mind, they had found it and we wouldn’t be charged. This was absurd because not only did we not take the pillow, but the pillow quality was not great and definitely not worth $100. They shouldn’t be so quick to accuse their guests of stealing.…

I really enjoyed staying here! We stayed on a Friday night, and we didn't see or hear any other guests, it was very quiet! When we first pulled up we met the owner, and he gave us a suggestion of a place to eat. We decided to eat before we checked in, and when we got back the owner was gone but our key was at the front desk. The bed was so nice! It was a memory foam mattress (like casper or purple, not sure what brand though). That's what we have at home so we slept very good! The towels and soap were pretty crappy. Check out was just as easy as checking in, just left our key at the front desk. Nice place. Pretty cool how old it is.

Just got back from my Vermont vacation for 5 days. Very quiet place to stay. Low prices. The room is small but cosy. The shower is a small stall but plenty of hot water. You pay in advance. No breakfast but if you ask the owner, he will give you some great ideas of where to eat.

We stayed at the Salt Ash Inn years ago (2x) when it was a Bed and Breakfast. I know things change but this place has definitely changed for the worse. We realized we were going to be near the Inn during recent travels and made a reservation. I noticed it was no longer a B&B which was fine with me. We paid, what I considered a reasonable amount but when we got there I realized that we were certainly not getting any where near value for the price. The room was not clean and the towels were thin and rough. I asked about coffee in the morning and was shown the coffeemaker and supplies to make it myself. I almost laughed out loud.....seriously? the owner can't make a pot of coffee for his guests?? The bar was closed as I gather it is a seasonal thing but I doubt this place is going to be around long if that is the way guests are treated. We checked ourselves out by dropping off the key and leaving. It was a true disappointment. The previous owners were very hard workers and it showed in the care and upkeep of the place. These owners have no clue what it takes.…

Not for the fine dinning crew! Clean, comfortable, hot shower, tv, phone. Cell phones have NO reception!! Land lines in the rooms. But there is wifi. Bar open only on weeekends. Dogs allowed w.stipulations. No food is offered here, coffee in am if you want to make it but no milk! Inn is great building built in 1700's updated but original wood planking. Quite rooms, comfortable beds, check in is a bit different, keys sometimes are left on front desk. Gentlemen isn't chatty at ALL! Some rooms sleep a lot others smaller.

Found this location via expedia when looking for last minute properties to stay in this general vicinity. It's off on its own but I love non traditional hotels so this fit the bill. You go into the restaurant to check in. The person that helped me was very personable and friendly. My room ended up being in the carriage house. When i opened the room door was pleasantly surprised to see the size of it and decent size bathroom as well. All very spacious, especially for one person. Only thing I would note is that the room was very cold when I got there, eventually heated up to a comfortable temperature. Had a good meal at the restaurant as well, very convenient that way. Also close to Killington and just a generally beautiful area. Glad to have come across it.

Where to begin...let's start with the Inn itself. It's freezing, there's a nice woodburning stove in the lobby, but no fire in it. There's no one to check us in, the bartender has to call the owner and ask how to do it. The room is...well, pretty bad. Bathroom is straight from a trailer with the tiniest shower imaginable. It was at least quasi clean. Maid service was off and on and getting fresh (thin & rough) towels wasn't easy. For the location and the potential this place has to be great, I was sadly disappointed. I promise I won't be back! :-(
