Brass Lantern Inn Information

George, Mary Anne, Patrick, Dustin and Deseray Lewis warmly welcome you to the Brass Lantern Inn! Attention to service, convenience through location, and clear value for your stay. These are the building blocks of our business and guiding principles we follow for providing a warm, friendly, intimate Bed and Breakfast. Mary Anne and George fell in love with Stowe, and each other, almost 27 years ago. Long story, but it was in the summer of 1984 that we met each other on a bicycle tour here in Stowe. It was on that wonderfully fateful trip where George traveling alone from Columbus, Ohio, and Mary Anne, a solo traveler from Clark Summit, Pennsylvania met here in Stowe. We shared a similar plan for that weeklong trip which included; meeting some new people, touring this beautiful area by bicycle, and hopefully developing some close friendships. We did that and more! We have now been married for 25+ years and have arrived back at the place we started from. We love to share this story with guests who also share the same love of place and the adventure of life. So, please consider us for your next stay and we promise to give you the "rest of our story" and we very much look forward to hearing your stories over a cup of tea or glass of wine! Just this past December, after years of dreaming of a lifestyle of Innkeeping, we found the Brass Lantern Inn. Having ventured as far south as Florida and as far north as Maine to find the "right place" we have settled in with our family of three high-school aged children in the quintessential New England town of Stowe, Vermont. If you have been to Stowe you can certainly understand our dream to live and work here. If you have not, we ask that you give us the chance to serve you and share with you all that this area has to offer. We sincerely believe that once you visit us, you will also feel the desire and draw to come back again and again. George is a registered Architect, who also enjoys the opportunity to work on old homes (a handy interest indeed here at the Brass Lantern), and is passionate about gardening, cooking and all types of outdoor pursuits. He still applies all of the professional training of his previous architectural practice in his new lifestyle: attention to detail, service to the client/guest, and development of long standing friendships and business relationships. Mary Anne is an Occupational Therapist having extensive experience working with children with special needs. Her other interests include knitting (sweaters for sale in our lobby!), swimming, bicycling and walking. Mary Anne is here to serve you each morning at breakfast and enjoys the fast pace of the start of our days and the opportunity to end the day with a walk along the Quiet Path into Town. All of our children are active in the community and take full advantage of the four seasons of outdoor activities available in this area of Vermont. Each help out with the business of operating the Brass Lantern in their own unique way and we all remain ever grateful for this opportunity to be of service to you our guests. We very much look forward to welcoming you to the Brass Lantern Inn and Stowe, Vermont!
