Detail from the Horseshoe Garden to the west of the Main House

Frog Meadow is located on the site of the Wheeler Farm, a 1700’s dairy farm and apple orchard that borders historic Newfane Village’s original mountaintop site atop Newfane Hill.

Our extensive perennial and annual gardens, varietal apple orchard, fruit and vegetable gardens are pollinated by our active beehives, butterflies, hummingbirds and bats who also call Frog Meadow their home.

In addition, owls, hawks, songbirds, wild turkeys, pileated woodpeckers, otters, deer, the occasional moose – and of course, our many species of frogs – share their wonderful habitat with our guests. We have identified over 100 different varieties of birds at Frog Meadow (including Tuvu, Tuti, Robin, Red-Eyed Vireo, Cedar Waxwing, Indigo Bunting, Chestnut-Sided Warbler, Tru Swallow, Thrush, Hawk, Chickadee, Crow, Raven, Goldfinch, Wren, Phoebe, Nuthatch, Hairy Woodpecker, Song Sparrow, Yellowthroat, Chimmney Swift, Pewee, Overbird, Chipping Sparrow, Winter Wren)!

Explore Frog Meadow’s gardens and plantings by taking a walkabout tour or relaxing on one of our many stone benches, Adirondack chairs, chaise lounges or the hammock by the swimming pond.

Guest Reviews

“There’s Something About Frog Meadow Farm!!”

Even though I comfortably reside in a bucolic and lush setting in Georgia, whenever summer rolls around I look forward to my annual retreat to Newfane, Vermont and Frog Meadow Farm. Dave and Scott are now accustomed to my easygoing, laid-back existence when I arrive at their well-appointed, comfortable and aesthetically pleasing Bed & Breakfast.

The setting is peaceful and I just go with the flow of the tranquility of my surroundings. The breakfast is nutritious, filling and “tickles the tummy.” It has a way of tying me over throughout the day until I decide where I will go for dinner, an easy decision to make since the hosts are fully acquainted with the culinary scene in the area and can recommend a restaurant to suit their clients’ varied tastes. Many of the men who I have met at Frog  Meadow are repeat guests and if they’re not, they easily adjust to the state of tranquility and community that naturally develops once one sets foot on the well-manicured grounds.

The accommodations, the natural setting and the hospitality of the innkeepers, Scott and Dave have brought me back to Frog Meadow Farm for the last seven years. Yes, there is something about Frog Meadow Farm, and I suspect I will make my annual pilgrimage to this lovely abode for many years to come!
