In 1893 Vermont Governor Carroll S. Page built the house for his family on the bluff in Hyde Park not far from his boyhood home. A copy of the 1759 Georgian house in Cambridge, Massachusetts, known as the Longfellow House, it also had the latest gas lighting fixtures, a drinking fountain of Vermont marble, and made-to-order mirrored mantlepieces. For modern comfort we've added WIFI throughout and in-room high speed internet, cable TV, and VCR/DVD players and to become an accessible romantic inn we have added a fully handicapped accessible room with a private porch and garden. Many original details have survived the century and the house has been restored and decorated to preserve the gracious elegance of an earlier time.

So when luxury and attention to detail matter and you're looking for a very comfortable stay in a classic Vermont inn, come to The Governor's House and slip back to a time when warm bread and cookies come straight from the oven and maple syrup comes straight from the tree. You'll be glad you decided to visit us.

You'll find fresh flowers in your room and fresh Toll House cookies in the cookie jar. You'll find cozy robes and high-speed internet and even hot chocolate at bedtime.  And you'll always find a warm welcome.
