Rabbit Hill Inn

Rabbit Hill Inn is Vermont's most awarded adults-only romantic retreat, a 19-room Federal period inn tucked into the tiny village of Lower Waterford in the Northeast Kingdom that has been called the most romantic place on the planet by Zagat and repeatedly named one of the World's Best Hotels by Travel + Leisure, with a culinary program and service culture that have built a devoted repeat clientele for whom returning to Rabbit Hill is a ritual rather than a choice. The inn's design philosophy deliberately removes televisions and in-room telephones from most rooms, replacing them with working fireplaces, spa tubs for two, and mountain views of the White Mountains across the New Hampshire border. The culinary team presents an innovative Modern American menu in a dining room and the Snooty Fox pub, both anchored by the region's finest local and seasonal sourcing. For planners, Rabbit Hill is ideally suited to very small executive retreats and leadership off-sites for groups comfortable with full inn buyouts, where the property's unhurried rhythm, extraordinary food, and complete absence of digital distraction create conditions for meaningful conversation and decision-making that a conference hotel cannot replicate. Three hours from Boston, two from Burlington and Manchester.
