It was my second stay there.
Maybe not a 5-star hotel, but a very pleasant stay and nice, friendly staff.
Will be back soon!

Amazing Service
The location was beautiful and the INN well maintained and they accepted our 2 Portuguese Water Dogs. Being on a lake it is really off season for this location so when we arrived the dinning room was not open on Monday, but Steve the INN keeper was also the chef trained at the CIA!
Steve told us the nearest restaurant was at least 30 minutes away and may to be open on Monday, so Steve offered to put together a meal for us with what he had in stock, as his food order didn’t come in until Thursday. Steve had a few items prepared, my wife had lentil spinach bacon soup and pasta bologna is w sausage, for me had a potato leek lobster soup and a green salad w braised scallops. Everything was delicious, presentation excellent and Steve Conversation enlightening and gave us a piece of Vermont Maple pie for desert, yum!!

Lovely Inn overlooking a beautiful lake and mountains
What really made our trip memorable was Steve, the Executive Chef and Manager and Marie, the bartender
What welcoming and accommodating people!
Steve made us Ahi Tuna at our request and we had the best scallop dish we have ever had!
We will return!!!

Will be going back.
Exceeded expectatuons in almost every way. Room was lovely, view was fantastic, service was amazing. Attached restaurant was the perfect meal. Only reason not giving a perfect rating is that the bathroom floor was dirty/gritty, and shower water pressure was poor.

Majestic Stay
Everything was wonderful & charming.
The view of the Lake took our breath away.
The food was amazing.
The staff made us feel like we were the only
guests in the Inn.
There was a coating of snow during our visit which made the mountain view Majestic

Fantastic Place with Odd Management
While the lakefront cabins are fantastic my experience upon arrival was a bit strange. The manager (possibly the owner?) said there was no balance due as I had fully prepaid it in advance through Hotels.com.
She requested that I sign a paper which stated the Willoughvale Inn's
rules and policies. After a long day driving I had left my reading glasses in the car and simply signed it, even though I couldn't read it.
When I asked for a copy of the document, she refused saying that since I had made the booking through Expedia ( actually it was through Hotels.com) she did not have a responsibility to provide me with a copy. Really?
Not a very welcoming reception by a not very pleasant person.

PROS: Attractive, well maintained property in a relatively remote area with a great restaurant.
CON: the noise was a problem. Right on the road so passing cars made quite a bit of noise. Also, we were in Westmore Room, which is right over the bar so we could hear tables and chairs moving downstairs below us as well as a tv.

The Inn is very well kept. Our room was immaculate. The Innkeepers and staff are very friendly and helpful. They treat you like family. There are canoes and kayaks for your use and a place with lawn chairs for building a fire. There were plenty of continental breakfast options including fresh baked muffins daily.

Willoughvale Inn - Lake Willoughby
Great location on a beautiful lake! We took advantage of the kayaks that were available to us. Staffing issues late in August kept the bar and dinner from being available, but they had a great continental breakfast. We will be back!

Awesome place to stay
We had an outstanding stay at the Willoughvale Inn. The rooms were clean and the staff were friendly. The views were amazing. They have a dock on the lake with all sorts of amenities including kayaks, a floating trampoline and a fire pit. Only difficult thing was there is no onsite dining, so we had to travel about 30-40 minutes to find food at night. There was a breakfast every morning with juice, coffee, muffins, fruit, cereal, which was nice.

Lovely Place
We loved our stay. The rooms have a spectacular view (especially the Gazebo Room!) and the inn is very nice with a good breakfast. All the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The lake is fantastic---clean and clear. I would recommend buying beach shoes as it is rocky if you want to swim. Great kayaking. Only two complaints: the internet is slow and the menu at the restaurant at night is limited.

This was our second summer stay at Willoughvale Inn and we couldn't have been more pleased. We stayed in the Gazebo Room and the view was magical. The private gazebo porch was like the cherry on top of this lovely experience. Our bed was beyond comfy and the service was sweet and accommodating. We also enjoyed the kayaks and swimming in the lake. Our only regret was not going a bond fire at night. We'll be back next year to do that.
