Stay three weeknights and get 20 percent off the regular rate. Visitors can also go for a sleigh ride, take a cruise, fish, skate, snowshoe or check out Tahoe's casinos. Dive into blueberry pancakes, eggs Benedict, home-baked fruit bread and fresh juices to start your day. The dining room becomes Jack's Restaurant at night, offering such Colorado fare as grilled lamb and Rocky Mountain trout. Set in a quaint Vermont town, The Old Tavern Inn has welcomed such luminaries as Ulysses S. Grant and Ralph Waldo Emerson.
Most rooms feature four-poster or canopied beds and antiques.
After a dinner of, say, pan-seared Scottish salmon, relax by the roaring fire in the Phelps Barn, where you may be serenaded by the musically inclined assistant innkeeper.
