Sawyer and Zita Lee are wonderful hosts. We reserved 2 nights at the end of September, but decided to stay a 3rd night. The peace and quiet was great. They are close to Burlington and Stowe (Von Trapps), pretty much the entire Western part of Vermont. Zita has beautiful gardens surrounding the house. Great breakfasts. One day was fresh waffles,...

The view of the pond and gardens from our bedroom window was truly one of the best in Vermont. The hosts are kind, the rooms are spotless and the breakfast was superb- cheese blintzes with homemade blueberry sauce and sausage. Oh, and the applesauce made with rhubarb was tasty, too. The only problem we had was that my traveling companion... More

This was our second stay with Zita & Sawyer and it was just delightful. So nice to meet Eby and play ball with him. We stayed three nights this time. Room 3 is so comfortable. Breakfast all together cooked beautfully as we all chatted, suddenly half the morning had gone by so pleasantly. Off to visit places and restaurants at... More

We stayed 2 nights at this lovely B&B, and were sad to leave! Zita & Sawyer (and their adorable pup, Ebbie!) are such warm, sweet hosts - it felt like we were visiting family! We really enjoyed sitting at the table with our hosts and the other guests and just chatting while enjoying the delicious breakfast .The grounds are incredible,... More

We recently enjoyed three lovely days at this incredible bed and breakfast and wish we could have stayed longer. Zita and Sawyer were warm and gracious hosts. Breakfast was beautifully prepared and delicious and was enjoyed with good conversation at the dining room table with our hosts and other guests, two of which have been coming to this B&B for...

We recommend this lovely B&B very highly. The site is beautiful, the gardens wonderful, the beds very comfortable and the breakfasts were impressive. The hosts couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful.

Zita & Sawyer were welcoming and very sweet, gentle people. We spent five restorative nights with them. The B&B was impeccably clean and polished. Breakfasts were absolutely gourmet. The grounds were stunningly beautiful. We could have stayed longer had we the time. We will return. Zita & Sawyer introduced us to their Vermont and we took a little piece of... More

The location and setting of Willow Pond is stunning. The care with which ZIta & Sawyer take care of their grounds is an inspiration. We couldn't wait to get back there at the end of each day to absorb the restful atmosphere. Special features include: two ponds, multiple bird feeders and a remarkable view of perennial gardens and rolling Vermont... More

We stayed with Sawyer and Zita Lee for a perfectly relaxing 3-night get-away. The setting is beautiful, the rooms comfortable and clean, and the breakfasts delicious. Expansive fields, a pond and the bird houses and feeders put up by the Sawyers attract a wide variety of birds, with Zita in particular is extremely knowledgeable about the local species.

What a wonderful, peaceful stay we had at Willow Pond. We have stayed at many B & B's. Sawyer and Zita were exceptional hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed living with this gracious older couple who guenuinely care for their guests and work so well together. Our room was very cozy & clean with a nice Vermont breeze even in August.
