The Trailside Inn was the perfect venue for our dream wedding on 8/26/17! As a destination wedding it allowed for all of our guests to stay on site and thus created a reunion type feel for the entire weekend. We are two months out from our big day and family and friends are still giving us compliments on how great it was. Josh and Ann, the innkeepers, are incredible! They didn't let us miss any details and it allowed for a perfectly smooth weekend. They also helped us find vendors to fill our needs and budget which was a huge help since I was planning this from out of town. The natural surroundings created absolutely stunning photos. I just recently got my pictures back and was able to relive it, once again being reminded of how amazing it truly was. I give this venue nothing but the highest recommendations. You won't be disappointed!

A wonderful experience for our special day.
Josh and Ann were very attentive to us and our guests. They answered all of our questions that we had about any details and gave us advice when needed while we were planning our day. I loved the idea of having the Inn to ourselves with our family and friends for the entire weekend.

If we could give Josh and Ann (the owners of The Trailside Inn) TEN stars, we would. We could not have asked for more reliable, diligent, professional, and personable people to help plan and run our wedding. They went above and beyond to make our experience before, during, and after our wedding virtually stress-free. They have so many connections with wonderful local vendors, and did most of the communication with the vendors for us. They were always fast to respond to questions/concerns, and they always had an answer.

We did not have to worry about anything on our wedding day. We were able to enjoy EVERY moment of our special day, knowing that Josh and Ann had every last detail under control. They were "on," making sure everything was perfect, from the time our first guests arrived on Friday, to when our last guest left on Sunday.
The inn itself is so cozy and comfortable. It was absolutely amazing to be able to take over the entire inn for the weekend, having only our friends and family there. Plus, everything was on site - ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception - so our guests didn't need to go anywhere.
The Trailside Inn is the whole package with the best wedding planners you could ever ask for. We HIGHLY recommend the Trailside Inn as a wedding venue!!

Our friends and family have told us this was the best wedding they've ever been to. We were looking for a venue where we could not only get married but also hang out all weekend, spending time with the people we love rather than fussing over details. The Trailside checked all the boxes and then some! We loved that it was cozy, inviting, and friendly, and really set the tone for the weekend. It was an amazing place for our group of 100 to gather, from the Friday night welcome party to the Sunday farewell brunch. We visited a few times for planning meetings before the event, and Ann and Josh were very welcoming and on top of the details. It was such a relief to work with two people who not only had the experience and knew what questions to ask, but also really cared about us and our wedding. They also had some great suggestions for vendors, including Woodbelly Pizza (Friday dinner), Vermont Farms Catering (Saturday dinner), and Woodstock Farmers Market (Sunday brunch). Josh and Ann were very flexible with my requests when it came to decor, layout, timing, etc., and had a lot of great suggestions. One of the vendors mentioned to us that Ann and Josh are some of the most organized/on-top-of-thing people they've encountered in the wedding industry. We always felt that we were in good hands, and never felt stressed. Our wedding was everything we hoped it would be, and I don't think it would have been anywhere near as good if we had gone someplace else. Thanks Josh and Ann! We'll be back for skiing!

I could not be happier!! The Trailside Inn exceeded our expectations in every way - the grounds are gorgeous with a relaxed vibe, the Inn was cozy and welcoming and the Inn Keepers and family were the best hosts and hostesses you could ever ask for. From the moment I arrived I was able to relax and enjoy Vermont and my family, with full confidence that Josh and Ann had everything under control. All our guests have been raving about the entire weekend and say that it was one of the best weddings ever!! We had a ton of kids staying at the Inn and attending the wedding and they had a blast! The yard games and game room provided them entertainment and space to just be kids! You would never have guessed that a third of the guests were children! I wanted my wedding weekend to be all about family; a pause in the every day craziness of life; a time for everyone to be able to appreciate the ones they love. After it was all over and we headed home, I reflected back on our days at the Inn and felt very grateful for the entire weekend and I would do every moment exactly the same. A very heartfelt thank you to the Josh, Ann, Brex, Quinn and the Trailside Inn. You are truly the best!!

Wouldn't it be nice if the innkeepers were logisitical masterminds but also super tasteful and friendly hosts? Josh and Ann at the Trailside Inn were such a pleasure to work with. From the initial planning to the sort of gametime adaptations on the day of, Josh and Ann offered so much resourcefulness and so much of this happy guidance to us. Our experience with the Trailside family and the venue in general was beyond what we would have dared to hope for our wedding.

We are realizing how many skillful touches that there were now that we are talking about it. They literally customized our weekend at the Inn. We think because they are logistical masterminds, they enjoy facilitating the process. Communicating about details was clear and easy from the beginning. Then on the day of, Josh and Ann coordinated the caterers, the band, the table and linen rentals, skillfully freeing us up to share a moment with a friend here, a moment with a family member there, and so on. It was such a happy day. They welcomed our crazy lawn games and added theirs to the mix.
Our friends and family kept telling us how great Josh and Ann were about hiking suggestions, biking routes, and golf courses. They have a magic way of taking care of things invisibly or checking with us about how we would like something to be. But they also just sometimes chatted and hung out with people when they had a minute. The tasteful, open-minded way that Josh and Ann welcomed people really invited our families to come together and created an environment where so many special moments between so many people could take place.

Best venue and innkeepers/hosts EVER!!! The innkeepers Josh and Ann are amazing - were attentive to all of our and our guests needs and made everything flow with ease. In addition they are so friendly and kind; I feel like they are now part of the family. The venue is gorgeous, inviting, cozy, unpretentious, and everything we wanted for our weekend. The ability to have the entire property for just our wedding guests was such a special thing. It helped make everyone feel at home so that we could just all have that much more fun. I can't say enough good things about this place and the innkeepers. Our decision to use this as our venue was easily the best decision we could have made. They suggested other amazing vendors and from there our whole affair came together perfectly. Five stars is not nearly enough!! If you are looking for a venue for 50-100 people look no further. I promise you will be thrilled with your choice.

We had our wedding at the Trailside last weekend, and it was incredible! We live in Amsterdam but have family all over the world. Because we live far away from our friends and family, we really wanted a wedding that felt more like a family reunion, where the priority was spending time together with the people we love. The Trailside Inn was the perfect venue for us since everyone we invited (approx 75) could stay on-site in their beautiful inn. We had a BBQ welcome party on the deck/lawn on Friday night (including lawn games and bonfire), the ceremony by the brook and reception in the beautiful tent on Saturday, and a group brunch in the great room of the lodge on Sunday - everything on-site, meaning no shuffling people or having to deal with transportation logistics. On Saturday morning guests did activities in the area, such as hiking, biking, walking to a nearby waterfall, brewery tour, etc. Josh and Ann were the best sources of information when it came to things to do and took the time to chat with guests who needed suggestions. They were very responsive and helped us think through all the details, and are very well connected with the vendors in their area. During the weekend they were very hands-on, and went above and beyond our expectations in terms of making the setting look amazing, facilitating logistics, and making sure everyone had a wonderful time. All of the little things made such a difference - you forget how many details are involved in throwing a party, and without Josh and Ann we would have had to figure all of these out ourselves. There presence really made the difference between us running around stressed out and us enjoying every moment of the weekend. We were so impressed by their flexibility and willingness to help us create the wedding we were envisioning. I cannot speak highly enough of the two of them or of the venue, and hope that other couples are lucky enough to have their perfect wedding here as well!

I don't even know where to begin. From start to finish everything about The Trailside Inn was perfect. Not only was the location breathtaking, but Josh and Ann's attention to every single detail allowed us, the parents, to enjoy every moment. This gift cannot be understated. Our guests had only rave reviews for both Trailside and for Josh and Ann. We couldnt' have been more pleased and grateful Thank you!
