Family Reunions at the Austin Hill Inn

Even though reunions are all about family, getting your relatives to interact can sometimes be a challenge, especially if you've gathered together many far-flung branches of the family tree for an all too infrequent family reunion.

A goal for family retreat organizers who expect extended family to attend is to have people talking and enjoying themselves as quickly as possible, because there is so little time to do it. It's not just shy kids — even some adults find it hard to strike up a conversation with someone that they don't know well and have only seen them at past family reunions. Our murder mystery event packages are just the thing to warm up the clan! The family gathers together on the first night for a dessert reception (although an earlier dinner can certainly be arranged).

Guests are encouraged to talk about the murder mystery characters that they have previously been assigned...but only to a certain extent - no need to spoil the secret! With great anticipation of the next night's zany event, the family reunion members sleep in our 11 comfortably decorated and wonderfully peaceful rooms. On the second night, after a day exploring the Mount Snow Valley of southern Vermont or enjoying some family history discussions or in-house family activities, the family gathers IN COSTUME for an evening of hilarious hijinx as people bribe and blackmail each other in an effort to determine "who dunnit"!

Austin Hill Inn is family owned and family friendly and perfect for family reunions in the 12 to 26 attendee size. Our Southern Vermont location and countless group recreation and activity options make our bed and breakfast the ideal family reunion location! Just 2.5 hours from Boston and 5 hours from the major metropolitan New York area ...whether driving or flying...the inn's accessibility is convenient. And, once your family is nestled within our comfortable family oriented country inn, they will definitely enjoy plenty of quality time together. The Austin Hill Inn and the Mount Snow Valley of Southern Vermont have something for everyone, which is why numerous families return year after year to enjoy their family reunions and fun in the heart of the Green Mountains of Vermont!!
