If you want to get away, relax, and feel refreshed, this romantic little country inn might be just the place you are looking for. The Fox Creek Inn, surrounded by National Forest in the peaceful Green Mountains of Vermont has much to offer. First and foremost is the warm hospitality and personal attention given to each of our guests. The comfort and satisfaction of our guests is of utmost importance, and something we continually strive to make excellent. You'll enjoy the ambiance of many fireplaces and Jacuzzi baths, our guest room amenities, our Vermont fresh cuisine, extensive wine selection, and well stocked pub. |
Fox Creek is only a short drive from revitalized downtown Rutland, Vermont and only 12 miles from Killington Ski Mountain, yet is far enough from both to be secluded from traffic, noise, and crowds. Killington and Pico have plenty of runs for alpine skiers, while a two minute drive to Mountain Top Nordic Ski and Snowshoe Center brings you to more than 80 kilometers of trails for classic and skate skiing. The Catamount Trail and Vermont Association of Snow Traveler's snowmobile trails are just outside the door of the Fox Creek Inn. These wooded trails which are great for cross country skiing and snow shoeing, are also perfect for just an invigorating walk through a winter wonderland, no extra foot apparel required! |

There is a beautiful mountain lake at the end of our road, Chittenden Reservoir, where guests enjoy canoeing, kayaking and swimming. A nearby equestrian center offers guided trail rides and horseback riding lessons. And for those who like to spend their time on the links, there are many gorgeous golf courses in the area. A bubbling trout stream (Fox Creek) runs through our property. There are a number of nearby brooks, ponds and rivers, and an excellent guide to help make your fishing experience unforgettable. |

At the end of the day, you can return to the quiet coziness of the inn to relax in a Jacuzzi bath and enjoy warm cider, hot chocolate, or, if you choose, something more bracing from the bar. During the summer, many guests like to spend the late afternoon or evening relaxing in the big rocking chairs on the front porch of the inn, listening to the music of crickets competing with the soothing sound of the creek as it bubbles along over rocks and around fallen branches on its way down from the reservoir. |
