Antique Mansion B&B | Things To do

Rutland Area Attractions

Sometimes we like to just sip a cup of tea and gaze out the window at the pastoral views…but there are plenty of choices of things to do, both indoors and out, as central Vermont offers a variety of activities and events at any time of year! For everyone from the sports enthusiast to the lover of art and antiques to the foodie… for families, couples, groups and individual travelers, check out these and other possibilities!
Food and Restaurants

Ready for dinner? If you’re tired of driving, you can simply walk across the street to Baxter’s Restaurant, but if you can tolerate 1.5 miles more, downtown Rutland offers ethnic (Italian, Mexican, Indian, Japanese, Thai) as well as West Street Grill and Southside Steakhouse

History and Culture

Curious about the Arts in Rutland? Art museums right in downtown, restored estates in the region, and Carving Studio and Sculpture Center should offer you some things to admire.
Recreation and Wellness

Feeling like a hike? Try Pine Hill Park with access and parking half a mile down the road. Or drive east on Route 4 to find the Long Trail/Appalachian Trail entrance. Your innkeeper likes walking the neighborhood and a 5K loop on picturesque McKinley and North Grove, just ask!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  We had a fantastic experience!  The owner made the whole experience very personable.  She was extremely attentive to what we needed.  The Mansion is beautiful, pulled right out of a storybook.  It is also situated right next to the golf course and a short ride from town.  Could not have asked for a better experience.

 Verified  ☺Sallie, the owner, was very welcoming, accommodating,  and knowledgeable of the area.
We were bike touring and arrived long before check-in.  Sallie was very accommodating and let us have our room early.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  The best B&B experience ever! Sallie is such a gracious host, and we can't thank her enough for going the extra miles and helping us out when our travel plans were disrupted. Also, her B&B is so charming, peaceful, and close to town/the country club restaurant. I absolutely loved the comics history she shared, too, and would love to return for the Halloween parade in the future. Thank you, Sallie!! You gave us a wonderful anniversary trip and we look forward to visiting again soon.

 Verified  Delightful. A terrific B&B.  Authentic, warm, welcoming, genuine. I'd return a thousand times.

☺Superb accommodations. The mansion is great, located very centrally and Sallie, the owner/manager, is fantastic.  It was a very comfortable stay on par with the best stays I've had in Vermont and elsewhere.  Very welcoming and a truly terrific B&B experience in a historic house

☹Everything was nice. It's a B&B, so you have to adjust expectations to be different than a hotel or motel. that said, this is a great B&B. very cozy, very authentic, very friendly.  Step back in time but with Wifi.

 Verified  Wonderful stay + fantastic host!

☺My partner and I stayed here for a few nights while we skied at Killington and loved it. Sallie, the owner, is incredibly sweet, super communicative, and really made it feel like a personalized stay. She consistently checked in to make sure that we had what we needed, and really made the experience feel special. She also made sure we had some grab and go items and coffee in the morning before we wanted to head out, and always greeted us with warm and lovely conversation. The mansion itself is beautiful and very well preserved – it feels like walking into a piece of history.

☹No complaints!

 Verified  Very unique house which is also a B&B

☺Flexibility with the breakfast timing and great attention to my food allergies.  I found a harpsichord in the sitting room, and was able to tune and play on it during my stay.  Host was full of historical information.

House was very unique and we enjoyed it a lot.  It was like living in a museum.

We loved our time at the Antique Mansion. Great location, beautiful house and decor. Sallie, our host, was extremely welcoming and kind. The room was bigger than I expected and I was delighted to see so many common spaces in the house as well. Bonus, breakfast in a really beautiful dining room. Will definitely stay again!!

Sallie, the owner was extremely responsive answering all our questions prior to booking and went above and beyond to make our stay excellent. The B&B is historic and well kept and the room was spacious, clean and with a comfortable bed, perfect after long days out in the snow.

It was a lovely home with comfortable, cozy beds and a lovely innkeeper. Sallie made sure we had everything we needed. She cooked a nice breakfast for us early so we could hit the slopes by 8. We plan to stay here again when we come back to ski. Thanks, Sallie! And next time, we want to hear more about the history of the home.

This 1867 Mansion was more than I could expect. Sallie the owner was like family the moment I met her. She furnished this gorgeous building with such detail to the era in which the grand structure was built. I thoroughly enjoyed my spacious room with a nice TV and comfortable large bed. Breakfast at the expansive dining table was breathtaking. I checked this off my bucket list. I suggest you add it to yours. Very local to all you need in southern VT along route 7

 Verified  An experience you'll never forget
One of the best experiences my wife and I had the opportunity to be a part of. It was my wife's birthday and I surprised her with a trip to Vermont and staying at this location. I will begin with our host and owner, Ms. Sallie. The moment we arrived, we felt instantly like being part of a family. Her kindness and sweetness made us feel like we've known her for years. We stayed in one the most exquisite rooms. Everything was what we imagined. This BB was located just minutes from downtown Rutland and minutes away from the local ski resorts. We are not skiers, however, to travel to and see the scenery of some of the resorts was exhilarating. Sallie served us with great hosting and breakfast each morning, and more importantly, great conversation. When you are staying here, ask her about the history of this beautiful BB. We also had the opportunity to share breakfast with other guests and we made some instant friends. I highly recommend to stay at this location if you are in need of a place to stay while visiting this area. Thank you Sallie for a tremendous experience and we will be back.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  My girlfriend and I stayed at the Antique Mansion for just 1 night while we skied Killington Saturday and Sunday. Sallie was extremely accommodating, and she made fantastic French toast for our breakfast before skiing.

I’d definitely recommend staying here to anyone friend or if you’re looking for a place that’s slightly removed from the hustle and bustle of the mountain!

 Verified  Fabulous Stay
My husband, son, and I stayed at the Antique Mansion for a full week. I was returning to Rutland for my 50th year class reunion and I had always marveled at the Mansion as a kid growing up in Rutland and into adulthood every time I drove past it. We arrived a day before our scheduled stay, and lare ar night as we were driving up from Florida. Upon calling before we made it to Rutland, Sallie was very accommodating and made rhe room available for us before our scheduled check-in the next day. Sallie was the perfect host. She prepared us fabulous breakfasts every day, as well as Eric, who covered for her while she was briefly out of town - pancakes, French toast, eggs, the works! There was always tea and coffee available for us when we returned to the Mansion every evening. The accommodations were perfect for us, being centrally located and the country club is across the street which made it convenient for meals and the functions we were attending. The Mansion is lovely, spacious, comfortable (so are the beds) and the history is very fascinating. The grounds are beautiful, peaceful and quiet. We will stay here again as we visit family in the area. I highly recommend staying at the Antique Mansion if you are planning a stay in Rutland. Barbara P.

 Verified  Amazing stay for a weekend ski trip!
This is a beautiful home set in a peaceful area, but still very close to downtown Rutland and a 15 minute drive to Killington ski area. Sallie was extremely accommodating and friendly, and she made us a wonderful breakfast each morning. We highly recommend this spot and have already mentioned it to several of our friends and family members for future Vermont visits.

 Verified  Good stay
We spent 3 nights here and enjoyed it very much. Sallie, the owner, is helpful and caring and has useful info about the area. Rooms are spacious and well equipped. Rutland is a good base for exploring south/central Vermont, and there's a Walmart in case you left anything behind. Restaurant choice is limited but the local golf & country club is across the road (literally walking distance), open to the public and has a good menu.

 Verified  A perfect stay
This is an extraordinarily beautiful house set on wonderful grounds. The rooms are perfectly appointed and huge! The house is only 1.5 miles from downtown Rutland, so you could easily walk if you want to. Sandie is a perfect host, offering great advice and conversation, and a superb breakfast. The house is absolutely quiet, which makes it great for work and relaxation.

 Verified  Exceeded our expectations!
We had a perfect stay at this lovely historic mansion. We even stayed an extra night (4 in all). Sallie was a warm and welcoming Hostess and made sure all our needs were met. She was careful to let us know about the rooms choices and bathrooms before we reserved. We loved hearing about the history of the house . We were easily able to drive to a number of sights we were interested in form Rutland. We will highly recommend this BnB to anyone we know traveling to Vermont!

 Verified  Wonderful B&B with Such Nice Hostess!
My mother and I recently stayed at the Antique Mansion B&B and had such a lovely stay. The mansion is beautiful and stately, and located in a charming neighborhood that is mere minutes outside of downtown Rutland. Owner Sallie was such a gracious and accommodating host and bent over backwards to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable. Her breakfasts were delicious! The rooms in which we stayed were clean, comfortable and well-appointed. We highly recommend Antique Mansion B&B for your VT stay!

 Verified  Great location
Charming home, just like the name says, an antique mansion! Sallie is a lovely hostess, very accommodating and helpful. The property is lovely. The location to downtown Rutland cannot be better, less than 2 miles from Main St and all of the dining and entertainment options. I stayed in the room downstairs which has the bathroom across the hall which I wasn't crazy about but it turned out to be just fine. Its in the downstairs hallway but she has it sectioned off. Plus, it was only 2 nights and the room was very comfortable and quiet. Free wifi and cable TV.

 Verified  You really must stay at the Antique Mansion BB
We were in VT for a wedding and had an extra day to play when we saw this great little B&B on the web. We had admired the many beautiful Victorian homes in the area and were thrilled at the chance to stay at one. Trust me, this is THE ONE to stay at! The Innkeeper, Miss Sallie Gill could not have been any sweeter and the room and breakfast were perfect!! We highly recommend this fabulous place it truly is all that is pictured and described...and Sallie makes it an A+

 Verified  Beautiful B&B in rustic Vermont
The Antique Mansion was everything we hoped it would be. The mansion gives a very unique, old feel with little antique gems all around the home. The yard is beautiful and Sally really makes you feel at home. Sally was one of the most attentive hosts I've ever encountered. She made sure we were all comfortable and even tailored our breakfasts to our liking! She made our wedding weekend so memorable and effortless. We could not have done it without her beautiful Bed & Breakfast! Thank you so much Sally. It was such a pleasure to stay with you.
