The Lodge Room
The large 680 square foot Lodge room, the Inn’s largest, was designed by Warren architect David Sellers to evoke the foundation of Vermont’s social structure when Mason’s, Elks, Odd Fellows, Granges, and other organizations taught the values and ethics of Vermonters for centuries. The beautifully designed wooden bed is centered on the long axis of the room and was made in Peter Brough’s shop in East Calais down to the diamond-headed brass bolts along the bottom edge which are normally seen on early Old Town canoe gunnels. Dave found two antique eagles to keep watch over the high end of the bed. One is from a weathervane, and the other is from the top of the old Brattleboro post office flagpole. There is a reclining couch next to the bed, and a desk in the corner of the room. The starry night painted ceiling was painted by Warren artists Art and Ann Schaller to replicate the night sky on Christmas Eve. The fireplace mantle is made from solid slate slabs painted faux marble in green and trimmed in gold. The bathroom was designed with enormous marble slabs from Rutland and features a double rainfall shower, jetted tub, and steam option. The countertop was once a lab desktop from Norwich University’s science lab. Lutron lighting in the room provides for different moods including a “bedtime” setting when only the two reading lights above the bed are illuminated.
