What guests say
8.4 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 358 guest reviews
Smugglers Notch Inn earns consistent praise for its outstanding breakfast, warm and accommodating staff, and ideal positioning along the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail, making it a reliable base for cyclists. However, several guests flag aging beds and a generally dated feel, and the restaurant's early closing time can leave late arrivals short on dining options. Overall sentiment is positive and the inn offers solid value, but those seeking modern comfort should temper expectations.
