About Melissa Levis

My wife, Georgette and I have lovingly been the innkeepers of The Wilburton Inn for 25 years. I am a psychiatrist from Athens, Greece and Georgette is from Brooklyn, NY. Her sister, playwright, Wendy Wasserstein, honored her by basing Madeline Kahn’s Tony Award winning role “Gorgeous” on her in the Broadway hit, The Sisters Rosensweig.

We bought our first home in Vermont in 1972 and raised our 4 children in Manchester. We are delighted that our daughter Melissa now manages our 8 rental homes in Manchester Village and our son, Oliver and his family have turned our home into a thriving organic farm and bakery. www.EarthSkyTime. Georgette and I look forward to meeting you and helping you have a wonderful stay in Vermont.

Melissa Levis purchased this hotel in 1987
Why Melissa Levis chose Manchester

This robber baron estate has evolved through the 20th century from a 1000 acre private home - the largest estate in Manchester Village - to a prep school, to an inn and now to an inn that celebrates life as a farm, a bakery, and a museum advancing creativity to become the core of education. This is a spectacular private, grand estate where guests can relax in a private home and truly feel they are 'away from it all.'

What makes this hotel unique

The Wilburton is a member of the Historic Hotels of America. It was built in 1902 by Albert Gilbert on a 1200 acre estate. He was a good friend of Robert Todd Lincoln, who also built his summer cottage next door on a 400 acre estate. The Wilburton commands superb panoramic views and two historic mansions, one on the hill and the other in the farm below, which was known as the Old English Inn and is now renamed as the Battenkill Valley Mansion.

Tour our outdoor sculpture trains that show the history of love and the evolving images of women through cross cultural myths.

Visit our son's Earth Sky Time organic farm and bakery less than 3 miles from the house.

Wilburton Inn

5 of 5
Submitted: January 4, 2011 Stayed: December 2010
My family stayed at the Wilburton Inn over the Christmas/New Years week. We had 3 families and 3 kids between the ages of 1 1/2 and 3 1/2.
The accommodations were not new, but very charming and probably the best that we have had in all the years that we have been renting in the Manchester area. The house was spacious and we all had our privacy. The living room/dining room area was very large and great for the kids.The kitchen was fairly well stocked. It was great having a washer and dryer in a spacious laundry room.
The location was very convenient, and the grounds were good for sledding, hiking, snowshoeing, etc. There was plenty of room to move around. Although we did not use it, having a restaurant in the main building is a very convenient feature
The owner and his staff were very gracious and tried to make our stay as comfortable as possible. We are all looking forward to a return trip in the near future.
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Pet-friendly, Girls Getaway, Sightseeing, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children
Owner's Response: This family also had three beautiful Irish setters who found their home in the separate laundry room.
When I suggested this guest to write a review he hesitated to share his impressions out of concern of the house becoming too popular and being left out the next time he visited. So indeed he made sure to reserve three other dates this year before sending in his review.

I am delighted when everything works well and I was a very happy innkeeper this New Year's week end as all my guests felt content for their stays this critical and busy time.

One topic of conversation was how many years people have been coming back to the inn and its houses. We have owned it 23 years. Among the guests were families that have been here 20 years in a row, 15 times and six times.

The proof of the approval of my place was that upon leaving many guests were making a reservation to come back the next New Year.
