Chris and Ann Curran: We moved to Chester and opened our B&B for Fall Foliage season 1996 after visiting Vermont regularly since 1984.

Our Stone House was formerly owned by the late author Olivia Goldsmith who lived here for 5 years while writing some of her first novels including "First Wives Club" which was subsequently made into a movie.
