The Featherbed Inn,
one of the Valley's originals, lies just south of Waitsfield's commercial hub on Route 100. A recent renovation
shows off wide pine floors and exposed beams of the 1806 farmhouse's 10 rooms and family friendly cottage ($99-$225).
It's conveniently located - right next door to American Flatbread's acclaimed Wood-fired pizza and within walking
distance of extreme skier John Eagan's Big World Pub & Grill. Antique beds with warm, fluffy featherbed mattresses
make first chair a fleeting dream. Good thing the innkeepers, former Aspen Ski bums Linda and Tom Gardner, know
to tempt you out of bed with a proper three-course breakfast.
