Nice weekend in Greensboro at the house. Plenty of space for 5 of us to spread out. Wonderful shelves of literature for any age to grab and read in many rooms. Comfortable beds and well labeled home. 20 minutes to Craftsbury Outdoor Center for some of the best Nordic skiing in Vermont. In winter, recommend you have a reliable all wheel drive vehicle to navigate road and driveway.

I celebrated my 30th birthday with a long weekend at the Gilpin house with friends and family. We had a blast. The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay. An hour from Jay Peak made for a couple excellent ski days. And XC and hiking trails from the property were beautiful and more than we had hoped for. We enjoyed dinner in Craftsbury, cheese from Jasper Hill, and beer from Hill Farmstead. Be prepared for remoteness and no service in the surrounding area (makes it easy to unplug!) Wifi at the property worked well for us. Rob was easy to communicate with. Highly recommend.

My family, friends and I celebrated New Years in this home. Overall we are pleased with our vacation spent in this home even though there was snow out the window, it was warm and cozy inside. Here you will find everything you need for a comfortable time. From utensils to bed sheets, blankets, and towels. The owner of the house kept in touch with us and answered any questions. We want to thank the people who did the cleaning in the home, and recommended some places to visit located nearby. 30 minutes from the house we enjoyed amazing pizza and live tasting beer. Also 50 minutes away, we tried skiing for the first time at a skiing centre. It would be amazing to return here summer time and fall time, also, because this is a beautiful state Vermont…

The beautiful surroundings entirely made our stay! There are deer trails through the forest for daily walks as well as a quiet country road. The view from the deck is lovely - not another home in sight! We enjoyed a crackling fire in the fireplace on one cold foggy day which I’ll always remember. The interior does leave a bit to be desired/upgraded as far as decor goes, but the beds were comfortable and we found everything we needed in the kitchen. We loved our stay~
