The Farm on Mad River hosts stylish weddings, civil unions, receptions and other special events in a location guests will remember for a lifetime. Family events, reunions with friends, ski groups, corporate retreats and seminars are held in a setting of lush gardens, well-manicured lawns and terraced, fieldstone walls — and, of course, The Mad River.

The Farm on Mad River Bed & Breakfast Inn hosts functions ranging from large events to small groups and is one of the few sites in the Mad River Valley that can accommodate very large outdoor parties.

Situated on 42 acres in Waitsfield, Vermont, with spectacular views of the river, mountains, meadows and waterfalls from every vantage point, the nineteenth century farmhouse features country lodging accommodations to complement our special outdoor settings.

Our restaurant-quality kitchen allows the creation of delectable breakfasts and dinners for our guests, or gourmet catering for hundreds.

Our grounds feature many special settings for both the enjoyment of our guests and for outdoor wedding ceremonies and receptions. Parking for these events is available on-site as are other on-site services such as catering, bartending services, and event coordination.

Reasonable rates and our location close to Route 100 and the Sugarbush and Mad River Glen Ski resorts provide guests with easy access to dining, entertainment and all the activities for which the Sugarbush/Mad River Valley area are well-known.

The Farm's rooms and/or Overlook home and cottage are available as part of an event package. While many inns make it an event requirement to take all of their accommodations along with the facility, The Farm does not. We feel that is our client's decision.

And while many inns insist their clients use its in-house catering services, The Farm does not. You are welcome to select a caterer of your own choosing, and we are accustomed to working with all kinds of outside vendors and suppliers. (Kitchen/usage fees may apply when outside caterers use The Farm's kitchen facilities.)

The Farm on Mad River's facilities fees are assessed based on a number of factors, starting with the size of the party involved, and begin at $2,500.

The Farm on Mad River bed & breakfast rooms and the adjacent Overlook home & cottage provide guests with a Vermont experience unequaled in beauty and hospitality in all seasons. Whether your desire is a relaxing vacation in the Green Mountains in the height of summer, a family ski vacation in Vermont in winter, a destination wedding in the country that your guests never forget, or a romantic, weekend getaway, The Farm on Mad River is one of those special places in the world you'll find hard to leave.
