Dear InnSite Guest,





Hello from River Mist Bed and Breakfast, nestled in the historic village of Bellows Falls, in southern Vermont's beautiful Connecticut River

Leave your worries and concerns behind as you walk

through the front door of our beautiful 1895

Victorian, and enter into the luxury and splendor of a

bygone era when people took time to enjoy all the

finest that life had to offer. Set back from the main

roads, you'll find an atmosphere of quiet solitude.

The original rich wood mouldings, hardwood floors, pocket doors, hand-carved fireplace and

ornate turned post staircase are features that will greet you, inviting you in to enjoy the

decadent architectural beauty of the River Mist, so aptly named after the magical mist that

rises off the Connecticut River, within walking distance of the house. Antiques fill the house

and add to the ambiance of grandeur.

You'll step back in time as you lie in a comfortable room with a queen size bed and your

own private bath. You may care to relax on the spacious wrap-around porch, where you will

enjoy a lovely view of Burt Street, "the most beautiful street in Bellows Falls". You see,

Bellows Falls in an entire Victorian Village, so along with our house you will have many

others to admire as well! Take a walking tour and marvel at some of the spectacular

Victorians built by the wealthy elite of the Railroad and Paper industries. The Village boasts a

rich history which you can explore by roaming the town, including the first man-made canal

in America, an exhibit in the local library to Hetty Green, "the richest woman in the world"

(and some say the meanest!) who chose to make her home here, as well as an original old grist

mill, railroad station offering scenic train tours of the Connecticut River Valley, and the old

factories still standing which produced the first paper made from wood rather than cloth rags!

And there's plenty of antiquing, Art Galleries, shopping, biking and hiking trails, and great

restaurants too! It's no wonder these wealthy settlers chose this picturesque spot to build their

architectural gems - Vermont is referred to by many as "God's Country", and it is truly

beautiful in each of the four seasons throughout the year. And of course Vermont has the most

vibrant and beautiful fall foliage of any other New England state!

To start your day off right, we offer a full gourmet breakfast that is unsurpassed! Here at

the River Mist, we don't believe in "continental breakfasts"! And we don't believe in

allowing our guests to leave the breakfast table hungry either. So we get up very early to start

preparing a large, delicious and satisfying breakfast, with an array of different entrees served

every day. You may want to extend your stay so you can try them all!

But however long your stay, we will strive to make your experience at the River Mist a

pleasant one you will never forget.
