The home was so beautiful and fit 4 couples comfortably! The entertaining area was exactly what we wanted and we were never bored! Highly recommend this property, Kate was so responsive and an amazing host! The house had a bunch of things I forgot to bring as well like body wash, it was just amazing! Thank you Kate for the great stay!!

My friends and I enjoyed our time here! We had 13 people in our group. We spent a good chunk of our time in the main living room area upstairs playing ping pong and watching TV! Note: the outdoor space/trash/recycling is shared with another property. Most of the bedrooms are downstairs and while we weren't sure if we'd have enough space at first, the owners have really cleverly optimized the space in the property. The location is great too! Overall a good time :)

What a great find. The property is tucked away a few minutes from town and about 20 minutes from Mt. Snow. There was snow cover, so we did not use much outside but it would be a nice spot for kids to run around and parents to hang out. The house is a duplex with bathrooms on both floors three bunk beds and a nice living/kitchen area. The property was well cleaned and there were enough dishes and drinkware for 8 people. The pool/ping pong table was a huge hit with the kids (and parents). The owners were great at communicating before the stay and after when we had to leave early to get ahead of a major storm. We would definitely recommend and, if we are planning to be in the area, would definitely rent again.

Stayed with my family of 5 and two other families. The place was clean, well equipped in the kitchen, perfect for people that want to cook & eat in. Very cozy. The kids loved the place, they kept busy with the pool table, dart board, ping pong table, and pac man video game between ski trips. Bedroom capacity was fantastic, proximity to supermarket very convenient, and proximity to Mt. Snow manageable (20min). Would love to stay there again. Only negative is loud heat during quiet hours, clicking & dripping sounds. Bring extra towels if in a large group. Property owner responsive and provided thoughtful additions for a pleasant stay ❤️

My friends and I needed a place to stay for a guys weekend and this was the perfect spot. We had a wonderful time enjoying the Vermont wilderness, playing pool and ping pong, and spending some quality time together. Everyone slept comfortably and the house was exactly as described in the listing. We are already talking about making our stay here an annual trip!

A groups of friends and families (5 adults 9 kids) spent the long weekend here and it was the perfect space. It was cold and rainy and we spent a lot of it indoors. We enjoyed the layout where most of the bedroom space was downstairs and living space upstairs. The ping pong table yielded hours of delight for all ages. The couch was cozy and fit us all. And when we got some outside time between the raindrops the outdoor play set was great! We even managed a fire and s’mores outside. Kate was responsive when we had questions. Would stay here again for another reunion! Thanks!

The location of the house itself cannot be beat! Check-in and communication was smooth and easy. And the layout of the house made it easy for three families, with kids 1yo - 18yo, to spread out and enjoy vacation vibes. Thanks for a great stay!

This house was perfect for our big family. We have kids ranging from 4-22 and this home has something for everyone. The playground was perfect for the younger ones, ping pong and pool for the older ones, and we all enjoyed campfires under the stars in this very quiet spot. There were stores close by and it’s centrally located to a lot of hiking, swimming and sightseeing. Just a great spot and Kate is very responsive and great to deal with. Definitely would love to stay here again in the future.

The house was perfect for our weekend trip. Bedrooms had big enough beds to accommodate grown men. The upstairs living space plenty of room to accommodate video games and a game of pool, plus hanging out and chatting. The fridge has plenty of space and there’s a Shaw’s grocery store up the road, which was very convenient. Overall was an excellent trip and a big part of that was thanks to this rental property!

Early March stay
We stayed here with our in-laws, 3 girls under two, and 1 year old pup. We had a great time, we’re able to spread out and be cozy in the kitchen/living area at the same time. It’s a short drive into town to visit restaurants. Highly recommend!

Our family and friends really appreciated our time at this property. The layout of the house was perfect for our group of adults and kids to relax, eat and play games together. Some of the features we enjoyed the most were the wide variety of activities that were available for amusement like the dartboard, pool table and board games, the well-stocked kitchen, the ample space for coats and boots, the two full baths and the extremely comfortable huge couch in the living room. Kate was a splendid hostess and was extremely accessible and flexible before and during our visit. We highly recommend this property for a skication or any VT outing.

Great stay
We really enjoyed wnjoyed our stay. It was close to everything we had wanted to do and very convenient. The house is part of a duplex which shares a deck but has a divider for privacy. No one was staying on the other side when we were there so it was very quiet, room for the dog to run.
The house had room for 20 people to sleep with the downstairs 3 bedrooms having full over full bunk beds. 16 downstairs could fit! Upstairs master bedroom and a full Murphy bed. We did not use all the sleeping arrangements . The beds were comfortable and sheets nice and soft! Always a plus when renting houses! The air upstairs is a standing unit that was making lots of noise but the owner came by and addressed it. The bathrooms were a bit dated but functional but upstairs the fan was very noisy.
The couch was large clean and comfy and two large TVs were great for our group. Kitchen was pretty small but well set up and we didnt use the dining space because to use the table you need to cover the ping pong table so not ideal if you are looking for space to serve meals for the large crowd. We did cook but had plenty of space to eat without setting up the table.
We love the area and enjoyed paddleboarding on lake whittingham and raponda and hiking all around. Definitely a great stay! The owners were easy to communicate with but we didn’t have to very much at all as we had all that we needed.

There are so many wonderful things about this property... I'm not even sure where to begin. The sleeping arrangements were fantastic, large and comfortable beds and plenty of space. The amenities that were included (espresso, cooking supplies, sauces, toilet paper, clean towels, grill, etc.) were all very appreciated. Fire pit worked out great, and the back patio area was where we spent a majority of our time at the house. Everything was better than expected, ping pong was a big hit, and I would 100% recommend this place especially for a big ski trip in the winter. Thank you for having us!

Comfortable and convenient
Loved that all necessary items are available in the kitchen. Complimentary coffee and teas are nice too. The kids enjoyed the pool/ping pong table. May I suggest to spray air freshener in the bedrooms since there’s a certain moldy odor when the doors are closed. Or maybe just open the windows for a while to let that odor come out. Overall it’s a very. convenient and comfortable stay.

Had a great experience. I would suggest having air conditioner in the bedrooms. The host was very friendly and available when I tried communicating with her.
