When I rented this property for Christmas week 2020, the listing said 800 sqft but at check-in I immediately told owner's husband it was1/2 that size-he didn't respond & we never heard from owners during the stay or after-now the listing says 550 sqft (it's 400 sqft max even if you count the 2 closets). Owners live on the property, so I'd hoped it would be clean (especially in pandemic) since they don't rely on others to manage it, but there were items left behind by other guests (a prescription bottle dated May 2020 by the bed & silicone ear plugs by the dresser), large cobwebs & some dust bunnies (I have 2 homes listed on VRBO, so I know SOME cobwebs/dust are inevitable but if you're not seeing items left behind, you aren't dusting /cleaning under/around furniture & it made us feel uneasy during COVID.) The listing says kitchen is "fully stocked" -the few pots/pans are outdated (if I'd known, I would have brought my own) but functional & there are some spices/coffee/tea which was nice. The owners only give a landline # so you can't text them & messages through VRBO app weren't always answered timely. When arrive you discover there's no cell service for 3 of the major carriers & only 1-2 bars with Verizon, so may be why they don't text but it made it difficult to communicate with them after arriving, unless you go knock on their door but who wants to be a bother, especially during the holidays. They do have great WiFi, which was essential since my HotSpot/MiFi didn't work. At check-out, I left a note & the items we found from the prior guests but owners didn't reach out, which was disappointing. Also, the sofa is not "comfy" as listed-it's OK but it's the only cushioned furniture in the small kitchen/LR, except for 1 other chair (which IS very comfy). Also, unless you all want to watch TV in the bedroom on the small TV mounted to the bdrm wall, bring your own. We wanted to watch holiday movies while decorating the artificial tree we brought but you can't see the TV from the other room. BUT OVERALL we had a great holiday! The view of the snowy garden area from the front door is BEAUTIFUL & owners keep the spacious parking area/driveway cleared of snow-it's NOT a steep drive, so didn't need AWD, which was great! Owners were super nice to put my meal-kit-box that was delivered early in the fridge. And we LOVE how convenient it is to shops & restaurants. Just a few tweaks would make this place ideal for 1-2 people.

Our yearly pilgrimage to witness the fall foliage started in Brattleboro. From there we easily explored many beautiful parks and locations as far south as Springfield, MA and across the Connecticut River to NH. The colors were glorious, and the accommodations, for the two of us were just what we needed. And our dogs loved it too!

We really enjoyed our stay! The owners were very welcoming and helpful!

What a lovely stay. Owners were so gracious and accommodating. A beautiful garden lovingly cared for, pet friendly and peaceful. Thank you Julia and Dave.

We spent several days here and the owners were great! Vermont is a must visit for any outdoor enthusiast.

Well kept decor was relaxing and pleasing to the eye. Had everything I needed except washer and dryer. Had issues with Wi-Fi phone service. Over all I loved it

I spent a couple of nights here. The hosts are great, and very helpful with finding your way around the area and what to see and do. Close to shopping, great restaurants and the mountains.
