About this house rental
Your home is the beautifully restored historic French inspired barn, built in the 1820's, which has wide-plank floors, hand-hewn beams, soaring ceilings, stone fireplaces and New England charm. Perfect for a romantic getaway, a country vacation for a small family or a quiet retreat to nature, Boorn Brook Farm is the quintessential Vermont experience!
Once the country estate and studio of famed painter and fly fishing enthusiast Ogden Pleissner, Boorn Brook Farm has been restored to its original splendor. Situated on 53 acres of open meadows and old apple orchards with stunning 360 degree mountain views, Boorn Brook Farm is protected by Lye Brook National Forest, yet within 5 minutes of the town centers of Manchester and Manchester Center. Boorn Brook Farm is also the new home of Green Mountain Falconry School!
In the summer, take falconry lessons on site, swim in the spring-fed pond with a beach, play tennis on the private court next to the Barn, hike on the Farm's private trails or in the bordering Lye Brook Wilderness, fish in the brook and the on-site trout pond , or simply relax in one of the hammocks.
Autumn is a magical time at Boorn Brook Farm where the mountains behind and in front of the Farm come alive with color. All the attractions of summer are available except with the need for a sweater in the evening!
Return home to build a fire in the stone fireplace, bake some bread in the stone bread oven in the fully equipped kitchen, play a game of pool in the game room, sip some hot chocolate and then watch the sun set behind Equinox Mountain from the outdoors firepit or the hot tub, right outside your master bedroom!
In the winter, skate on the pond, sled on the hill, snowshoe or cross country ski on the back trails, ski or snowboard at nearby Stratton or Bromley Mountains. Nearby are sleigh rides, great restaurants and shopping in Manchester, which is a short 5 minute ride from Boorn Brook Farm.
Children and adults alike will also enjoy our farm pets, our adorable goats, Pan and Axel! Dogs are welcome here on the farm.

Jeff was a great host. I contacted him ahead of time to make sure he was ok with us bringing our dogs. Everything went smoothly and if we do a similar trip in the future, this will be the place we will look up! Perfect! A++++

All communication with Jeff was great! Check in and out process smooth. We were worried about leaving the main door unlocked but he assured us that there had never been an issue and all went fine. As 4 women alone, it was nice to know that Jeff was nearby and we felt safe on the property. The grounds and surrounding forest create a great atmosphere! My adult daughters liked the swings and pond. We traveled with our dog and she loved her run around off her leash on the tennis/basketball court area since enclosed. We were concerned about her being in the 2nd floor bedroom because the gaps between the railing would have allowed a fall but this was remedied with using the fireplace screen to block off the stairs and door when needed. The pool table is great! The great room of the barn was so pretty! Would recommend updating the couch as it was uncomfortable. It has room for a really large TV which would have been nice for evenings. The bedrooms didn’t have AC as expected but maybe this was because it’s still spring technically. Either way, we did fine. The last day there was the warmest which was uncomfortable in the afternoon but cooled off nicely in the evening. The listing said washer and dryer but there is not? Beds were comfortable! Would highly recommend a deep clean of kitchen/appliances and bathrooms or updating. The chairs in pool room need to be deep cleaned or replaced. Our first time in VT and we loved the little town and all it offered! Would visit again!

We loved our stay from the moment we arrived. Jeff was very welcoming, the place is beautiful and so fun, and the land offers so much. It was just perfect.
