Georgette has been adding adoptable bears and critters by Armella to her Inn since the 1990's.  If you are in the Chester, Vermont, area, be sure to drop by and visit with this very kind and loving arctophile.  And while you are there, look around at the many bears and soft-sculpture critters she has in the Hugging Bear Shoppe, located behind the Inn.  You might even find a fellow created by Armella, like Inspector Kensington, as seen at the left in Georgette's arms.

They have given the mansion much tender loving care since they purchased the home. It had been unoccupied & unheated for 17 years.  The mansion has now been restored to the splendor of days gone by. The Walkers enjoy sharing the home’s history as much as they did reviving it.


Gary & Virginia Walker are the hosts & owners of McNeill Stone Mansion.
