"Beautiful October time in Vermont / New
Hampshire with even some sun! We had a
wonderful time and this was our second visit
after 3 years. Very comfortable, warm, and
hospitable – like a home away from home
except for the delicious ample breakfasts.
Carol & Howie, you are wonderful hosts with
a little of Howie’s singing heard free of charge.
Adios as we return to Tucson."
- Nancy and Fred Krause , October 2011
"Came up with another couple, and stayed in
Room 3 & 4. What a wonderful spot. Beautiful
view, delicious breakfast, comfortable & casual
common rooms. We were so impressed! We
plan to make this a new tradition. Thanks to
the innkeepers for making us feel at home
during our entire trip."
- Erin & Tom Beach, Oakham, MA, Oct 2011
"This was our first time at Carol’s & definitely
won’t be our last! We spent the long weekend
here with another couple leaf-peeping & going
to Octoberfest activities and don’t want to
leave. Carol & Howie are wonderful hosts and
the breakfasts were delicious. Carol had some
great recommendations on things to do & see
(and gives good directions when we got lost).
The room was comfy and clean and we woke
up well-rested and happy both mornings.
Thanks to Carol & Howie for everything and we
can’t wait to come back for another stay."

"Our fourth visit as we climb Mt. Ascutney.
Howie & Carol are the best.
We love it here every summer."
- Nancy & Ted Morse, August 2011
"My girlfriend and I stayed here for one night.
We found this B&B on the web. Carol & her
husband treated us very nice and we enjoyed
the wonderful breakfast. This B&B is very
clean and very comforting as well as soothing
because of the serenity and the beautiful
scenery. We would enjoy coming back again in
the future. Thank you for your hospitality."
- David Wu, July 2011
"Thank you again, Howie & Carolyn for
your good hospitality; great breakfasts and
comfortable rooms. May God bless you for
all you do.
- Bonnie & Karsten Solheim, July 2011
"For three years, we have always climbed Mt.
Ascutney coming south from northern Vermont.
We intend to do it again this year and rest
assured, we will be calling Carol and Howie
to stay with them, their great accommodations
and wonderful food this August.
- Ted and Nancy Morse, Warren, CT
"The guests from the 1st weekend of May
would like to say thanks for a great stay at
Carol's Hilltop. The room we had was great
with an amazing view and with great hosts!
And were not just saying that because they are
our Grandparents. The Breakfast was so good,
especially what I like to call 'the Bower
pancakes' covered in Vermont maple syrup.
The place is great with good accommodations
and is all around a great place to stay. We
loved every second and hope to go back soon.
Thank you for the stay."
- Chris and Katy, Wallingford, CT
"We were recommended by friends to stay here
with our 2 children. Kids had enough room to
jump around and be entertained without being
underfoot. Were we spoiled with views,
amazing sites, especially with a full moon
overhead. The snow, the stars, the moon, and
the lights from the town below, so picturesque.
Not only were the accommodations amazing
but so was the hospitality. We were greeted
with a delicious and bountiful breakfast each
morning, not to mention cheerful conversation
and genuine kindness shown to our family.
To top it off we were serenaded by Howie’s
beautiful music. Carol, Howie and the pups are
very special and loving people. We feel
blessed to have spent a short amount of time
with them and will treasure it forever. We also
drug along a sibling and his 3 children for a fun
ski weekend at Okemo and Suicide Six which
were fantastic places to visit. They were sure
we were comfortable and well fed.
Best wishes for an amazing season!"

"Carol’s Hilltop B&B is the most luxurious B&B
I have ever stayed at. Private bathrooms,
jacuzzi, mood stove, hardy breakfast and
beautiful views are standard. Howie & Carolyn
are wonderful hosts. Staying there was a
perfect getaway. What a neat destination."
- Kathy DiGuilio - November 2010
"Thank-you for another great year vacation at
Carol’s B&B. We look forward to next year."
- Karl & Julie Kapuscinski - November 2010
"Many thanks for a fun weekend! Loved the
guest living room so we could chat with our old
friend Paul (your neighbor up the road).

"Wife’s 50th year of living. Happy Birthday
Honey. What a way to start off a great
weekend. Incredible scenery with exceptional
accommodations.
We were up at Ascutney Mountain Resort 21
years ago for our 5th marriage anniversary and
we haven’t been back here since. I was on the
web looking for a nice bed & breakfast and we
hit the jackpot with Carol’s. The two of us are
feeling good looking out our bedroom window
at the place that brings back earlier and
beautiful memories. Many thanks Carol &
Howie, Godspeed."
- Tom & Laurie Judd, October 2010
"What an awesome place! Love the scenery
and the hospitality! We’re here for the night
with Tom & Laurie, saw Los Lonely Brothers
last night. Great concert. Thank you! We hope
to be back next year 2011 on the bike. This
would make a great place to hang your hat for
a few days and tour the state. Howie & Carol,
you made our stay so pleasurable."
- Will & Allyn Santos, October 2010
"What a lovely place you have! Worth every
penny. From the beautiful views to the
wonderful staff, we had a delightful time.

Your place is beautiful, clean, and cheerful.

are so pleasant and cannot do enough for us.

"What a terrific find! Clean, cheerful, quiet,
restful – beautiful views and what a night sky!
Breakfast was bountiful and delicious and
Howie and Carol were so interesting and
helpful. Thank you for a very good visit."
- Chris & Judy Nauran, September 2010
It"s the best bed & breakfast I've ever been to.
The place is great, the owners are friendly
and will do so much for you to make you
comfortable and enjoy your stay. The view
while sitting on their porch is so beautiful.
Their breakfast is a 3-4 course meal.
We look forward to going up there often."
- Joe & Sharon Adkins, August, 2010
"My husband and I have stayed here at Carol’s
three times per year since it opened. It is very
nice, very clean, and the guest rooms are very
spacious and comfortable. Both of the
innkeepers are friendly and accommodating to
customer requests. Although my husband
passed away this past January, I will continue
to visit Carol’s Hilltop B&B and I highly
recommend it for any travel accommodations
needed."
