Silas Griffith Inn - Common Rooms and Grounds

Whether you are staying in the Manor House or the Carriage House, the Great Room (a large living room), the Music Room, and the Parlor Room (a media room featuring television, DVD movies, and some video games), are Common Rooms for all guests. Admire the elegance of the late Victorian period as seen in the hand-carved cherry and bird's eye maple woodwork, the beautifully embossed tin ceilings, the stained glass windows, and the original overhead beams.

In the Great Room you will find a selection of books from our personal libraries for your reading pleasure. Make selections at your leisure, and return them before check-out. In the Game Corner you will find puzzles and table games; card tables are available as well, if needed for additional gaming. At times we will run board game competitions, if enough are interested. And should chess be your game, we have that as well!

The Music Room is a quiet area for reading if no musical activities are taking place. We offer instruction in piano, voice, and music theory (at the going rates for private lessons). Performances of chamber music will be scheduled there, in addition to Folk and Celtic music. See the Front Desk for a schedule of events.

The Formal Dining Room is available for big card games or large group gaming. Speak to an Innkeeper if additional seating is required.

The Parlor/Media Room features HD-TV with cable TV, DVD, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Wii. Please remember that we are a Family-Friendly Inn; no inappropriate movies or games are permitted. We are concerned for the welfare of your children, and ours!

Please inquire at the front desk for a list of available movies and games.

The hot tub is open seasonally, its inviting waters heated to 104°F. Due to the high water temperature and a level of chlorine, we recommend that children and expectant mothers do not use the hot tub.

Our outdoor pool is available seasonally, weather permitting. Sunbathe beside the pool, surrounded by ancient birches and riotous flowers against a backdrop of meadows and forested mountains.

The Silas Griffith Inn has large, shady porches where you can rock or sit, read or knit, or simply enjoy bird and/or people watching.

In the Autumn, the mountains above us become vibrant with color as the leaves change with the season. In the mood for a walk? Meander through the village of Danby and browse the local stores, or climb our rolling meadows. There are many hiking trails throughout the mountains nearby. In the mood for Winter sports? We are located just minutes from the ski areas of Killington, Stratton and Bromley. For an offroad adventure, Danby has miles of snow-mobiling trails for winter fun.
