Stayed here while visiting Bennington College with my daughter. We were made to feel welcome, and it's location worked out well for us. I was able to get a good picture of what the town was like and how that relates to the college. Thanks for the suggestions of where to go to eat:)

I stayed at the Knotty Pine with my husband and our (small dog). The motel is everything it bills itself as - a nice, local, family-run, dog-friendly motel. The room was very cozy and the grounds well kept. We enjoyed the fridge and micro in the room. The amenities were basic. Our dog loved his first motel stay!

This was a third visit to the Knotty Pine in the last 5 years. While it is not a "fancy" motel it is incredible clean and comfortable. We were there for a dog event and the owners could not have been more friendly and helpful. My husband snores and they offered adjoining rooms. While it is an older motel, every... More

Charming roadside motel w/old-fashioned quality, ambiance and value. Under $75 got us a beautiful double-queen bed room w/ more amenities than you'd find in upscale, larger, way more pricey hotels/motels. Off of a main road, but set back enough that road noise is near non-existent. Very clean and well-maintained. Pretty outside and quaint inside. Very friendly and caring managers. Pet... More

We stayed here because we needed a dog-friendly motel. The Knotty Pine was inexpensive, and did not charge any extra fee for dogs. We were pleasantly surprised on our arrival. The couple who own the motel are friendly and helpful, and our room was much more than we expected. Clean, and appointed with everything we could need: fridge, microwave, coffee... More

This is a great place to stay in Bennington for those on the road. It is located right off of a main road but was not noisy whatsoever. You have your own parking spot right in front of your room (which is a private complex). The room was nice, warm, and came with a fridge, microwave and free wifi. The... More

We stayed there for one night on our road trip through Vermont. Although the decoration of the room was out-dated, it was clean. It is good for people who are looking for a simple and clean place to sleep.

I stayed at the Knotty Pine for two nights in room 3. This room featured two double beds and a pull out sofa. The room was more spacious than I expected but managed to also be very cozy. The Knotty Pine is an older motel but still manages to feel updated and reasonably well kept. Pros: good price, well maintained... More

Thank you so much for taking the time to write an honest, favorable review! We are glad that you were pleased with the room size, our affordable and of course cleanliness, but it is unfortunate that you found the beds to be uncomfortable. We are always renovating our property and have spent the last couple of years on many improvements... More

Motels such as the Knotty Pine don't exist much anymore. It's all chains and run down reminders of when road trips led to clean & comfortable rooms at a reasonable price. The Knotty Pine may not be on a scenic overlook in Bennington but it's conveniently located to all you'll want to do in Bennington. Our room was extremely clean... More

We stayed here one night on our way to the White Mountains. We were not disappointed. The room was clean and comfortable. The motel is conveniently located on a busy street but it's still quiet.
