The lock situation on the door to my cabin was concerning. The key was required to lock it from both the inside and the outside (presenting a hazard if I needed to escape quickly), and there was no deadbolt. There was another lock that had a keyhole on both the inside and outside, but my key did not work on it. As a single woman staying on the property entirely alone in the off season, I felt the need to barricade my door each night to ensure nobody could get in, since I couldn't deadbolt it.

We had an amazing stay at Viking Village resort! It is an absolute hidden gem and truly felt like a fairytale escape. The cozy wooden houses are free-standing, which gives you excellent privacy, making them perfect for either a family trip or a solo getaway. I was so pleasantly surprised to find a fully equipped kitchen inside. The entire area is incredibly quiet with absolutely no outside noise—just total peace. On the premises, they have a great fireplace setup and the most amazing, cute goats! My only regret is that we only stayed for one night. We are already hoping to come back for a longer stay next time. It is absolutely worth the drive!

I love this place. It's really special. Some people to preserve what was special and exciting and authentic about a historic space and these are my people. They have the amenities you need (great bed and linens, refridgerator, microwave, good towels). They have the amenities you don't need but love! (record players in all rooms and throughout the hotel and vintage vinyl readily available, cucumber water in the lobby, a coffe and tea station in the lobby, a postcard writing station, easy access to a movie theater). This won't be everybodies cup of tea. What used to be luxury amenities are preserved a curiousities, the halls feel like a dorm, and brattleboro is on a downturn. But Brattleboro is also really beauitful, with some lovely restaurants and arts venues. And I love everything about it. If you stay - make sure to stay see a movie. It's gorgeous in there. Turkish breakfast at Tulip in amazing. Shim La's really good. check out the river. Stone Church is a fun venue. And Ther'es a lot to see and love in brattleboro. Also Go to chesterfield and check out madame sherri's castle and the gorge. Enjoy!
