We had a wonderful experience staying at the Black Lantern Inn. The Inn is location on the main street, and very easy to find. We didn't get to the property until 1:00 AM, and the property were decorated with Christmas lighting, which made it cozy and super easier find the place, especially when it was so dark out. There's a small parking lot between the two buildings, and our room was in the Burdette House. The buildings are vintage, but the room has all the towels and basic shampoos, and shower gel.

Charming historic inn

This was our second stay at this historic, lovely & comfortable inn. Our room #2 had a king size bed & a separate sitting area which could have accommodated another adult or small kids on a foldout cot in the closet. Furnished with a mix of contemporary & vintage furniture. Very clean. Showers have great water pressure. The mini breakfast in the inn’s bar/restaurant includes delicious homemade muffins. The restaurant is open for dinner—only on Thursdays & Fridays at present. The area is semi rural but located near Montgomery Center, St Alban’s & Enosburg where there are restaurants & other amenities like the Eloquent Page Bookstore, worth a visit for the book lover. Six wooden covered bridges to explore in the area; at one of them we even met a 5th generation descendant of the original bridge builders, the Jewett brothers. The Black Lantern Inn is a wonderful place to enjoy a relaxing getaway. Definitely recommend 👍

Cozy historic inn—lots of character & charm

Black Lantern Inn is a cozy place to stay. The exterior may be showing its age—1803!—but the interior exudes lots of character & charm. It’s listed on the National Historic Registry. Easy check in. Our Rm 6 was spacious, clean, quiet, with comfy & some vintage furnishings. All rooms appear to be on the 2nd floor & there's no obvious elevator (it’s an old building after all).
Caveat re: our bathroom: toilet seat is loose & needs to be screwed tight; & don’t flush toilet while someone’s showering. Luckily this shower is roomy so hubby was able to dodge the sudden blast of hot H2O! The shower had a corner bench & jets along the bottom which we didn’t use.
Had pleasant interactions w/Catherine, one of the very nice hosts. They were very responsive to our needs & gave great restaurant recommendations. Each morning we enjoyed a continental breakfast in the bar—muffins, yogurt, juice. Great coffee & the homemade muffins were a treat.
Catherine said there are 5(?) families who rallied together to reopen & maintain this lovely historic inn. We applaud them. It’s a welcome change from a chain hotel. We look forward to staying again, hopefully the restaurant will have re-opened. Definitely recommend this charming getaway in Montgomery VT, with scenic covered bridges & waterfalls nearby.

One comment: some of the border wallpaper in Rm 6 is starting to peel from the wall though this didn’t affect our stay. I’d just hate to see it pull away more.

I gave everything a five-star review, however this is an unstaffed property so the service I mentioned was related to housekeeping and whomever put out the breakfast. I never saw anyone, however, all communication I had with them via email was excellent.
I also noted that I enjoyed the area. However, the restaurant at the hotel and all the restaurants in this immediate area are shut down from Easter until May 15th.

A little quaint……

Very quaint place. Check in was super easy as our room key was just sitting on a table when we walked in the door, with our room number on it (makes me wonder if there was another key already taken by a random person). The staircase was steep, narrow and STRAIGHT UP!! Wasn’t expecting that!! Glad we are not handicapped, as this was mentioned nowhere! Room was clean and comfortable, even had our own fireplace. However, the bathroom was TINY, then a light burned out so doing hair and makeup was a bit challenging also not enough towels, but nobody around to bring me any?!?! Restaurant downstairs was convenient but very mediocre at best. Our stay could’ve been worse, definitely wasn’t the best, but not many choices in this remote area

The Black Lantern Inn goes back to 1802 and is in the heart of Montgomery, a small rural town in far northern VT.
The room was spacious, clean with a comfortable bed. Nothing fancy - mostly vintage furniture. Checkin is curious in that there is no desk person as such but your
key with a paper with your name and room number on it is on a bench in the vestibule as you come in. You can contact the owners by text or phone as needed. The bathroom en suite with a good shower. The dining area is attractive and, while I didn't eat a full meal there, friends of mine who have had dinners there say the food is very good. They do provide a modest continental breakfast. There is a lot of beautiful scenery in the area and the Inn is not too far from the Jay Peak ski resort. Quebec and its beautiful towns is only a short drive further north. I enjoyed my two nights at the Inn and would not hesitate to return.

neat Inn. loved our room

we certainly enjoyed our stay.. Dinner was downstairs. so after a long day of skiing it was pleasant to eat and go back to our room.
I know it said continental breakfast. I guess I had a different idea of a continental breakfast.
since we were the only 2 people in the Inn at the time I didn't expect hot food but there were no options.
There was 2 tiny muffins and 2 yogurts. and fruit juice and coffee. No real fruit. And no live person... I heard someone downstairs but when we came down at 7:30 there was no one to help us out or ask for anything else
My spouse ate both muffins because he hates yogurt .
I got the yogurt.

There were beetles and flies in our room flying all around the ceiling light and on the walls. When we tried to contact the proprietors there was no cell service, eventually, the text went through, but, we never heard back until we woke in the morning. Apologies were given for the inconvenience...also, we expected to stay in the Black Lantern Inn, not The Burdette House...heads-up would have been nice.
