This house has a lot of potential, but several things made me question if we would stay here again. Many of the issues were previously mentioned in the comments section, but as a group of campers we figured none of them by themselves would prevent us from going.
- Water: Yes thew instructions are no more than 1 shower at a time. 3 full baths but you need a schedule. That's fine for a relaxing weekend (which was us) but could be an issue for a group on a schedule.
- Water: More of an issue was the water was shutoff overnight. We had followed the rules and there were no water faucets dripping, but I'm guessing when we ran the dishwasher overnight it was read as a leak. Had to call Vacasa who in turn had to get the owner to turn it back on remotely (software monitor that shuts it off and can be turned back on remotely).
- Dishwasher: top rack is broken so you cannot load it and the first time we used it the dishes weren't clean.
- Couches: they were really bad. We preferred sitting on the floor.
- 1 Single Wine Glass: We were a group of 8 and it sleeps 10 but there was only 1 wine glass/gobbet. We used other glasses just fine, but for the price you would think there would be at least 10 wine glasses.
- Kitchen was stocked and had what we needed, but everything seemed to be chipped.
- Lighting: The Family room had a few light-bulbs out and what was there wasn't very bright.
The water shutting off on us was the only real issue, but all of the other items adds up.

At 11:50pm a fire alarm on a vaulted ceiling we could not reach started chirping due to a low battery. We called the service agency that maintains this house (Vacasa) and they said they would send someone out to fix it. This never happened so we had a pretty sleepless night on the last day of our rental. Also there were no carafe's for brewing coffee with either of the machines.

The location of the property was perfect. Very private yet close to the town of Wilmington and close to the main road.about 15-20 minutes to Brattleboro.
Loved the setting, the sound of the water in the stream behind the house in the woods, deer in the yard. Plenty of room for the kids to play outside.
None of the windows had drapes on them. It gets very bright early in the morning. Would have liked to have some drapes on the windows in the bathrooms at least.
Since it has wood floors you can hear every sound. Once 1 person is up, everyone was awake with the floor and stairs noise. A few of the beds made lots of noise when sitting or rolling over in bed. Ended up taking the mattresses off the beds and putting them on the floor. Found some ofthe wood on the box frames were cracked.
The couches weren't very comfortable. They sagged and the loveseat had a strange curved piece of wood the stuck out in the middle of it when you leaned back in the center /middle of the back of seat.
The dishwasher top rack was broken and would fall if we loaded it up. We ended up hand washing and drying all the dishes.
Had everything in the kitchen we needed except a potato masher. We survived.
YES I would rent this house again. The setting and the space inside was perfect for all of us.

This house is beautiful and the area is wonderful, when we first arrived there was even a deer in the yard. Plenty of space for all our guests, we had a friends weekend and it accommodated us well.I would have given the house 5 starts if it weren’t for a few small quirks, the house has 3 showers but only 1 can be used at a time with 7 adults that required some extra planning to coordinate, also their is a dish washer but their was no soap for it so we needed up doing dishes by hand , also their are no currents in the bedroom so if you want to sleep in it makes it difficult. Overall the house was great just a few small quirks would consider staying their again.

This property has been everything you need for a mountain family getaway! We especially liked how open and spacious all the rooms felt.

I loved the very private location away from roads and other houses as our pup would have barked if close to them. I loved the decor, architecture and comfortable furniture. Bathrooms were classy with 2 sinks and nice counter space. Lots of closets.

We should of taken prior reviews more seriously regarding not having water. We lost water the first night of our stay. We called Vacasa at 8:15am and submitted an urgent ticket, having a full house with no water is no vacation. They promised to have someone out that day. Lunch time came and no one has called or showed up. We called Vacasa again and they said the local prop mang co was not responding. They promised to call us back. They never called again and we had to call again at 3pm still no water or plumber. We lost a day of our Vaca boiling snow to flush toilets. At the end of our frustration, we asked to be moved to a diff house. Vacasa honored our request and we salvaged the end of our Vaca. This house should not be advertised for rent when there has now been at least 3 complaints of no running water. Also, no cell reception and very bad internet service. House was nice otherwise.

The house is beautiful, high ceilings, exposed beams, large private property, great layout for entertaining but just not comfortable. The beds were super soft and difficult to sleep on, the sofas were old, lacked support and were ripped. Even the chairs in the dining room were uncomfortable.
Like I said, the house itself is beautiful but upgrading the furniture would improve it greatly.

Overall very nice property and experience. House is quite large and had no issue accommodating everyone in our 9 person group. House sits back off the road so that you never see traffic and rarely hear passing vehicles. Small serene stream is down a small hill only a few hundred feet from the house. Molly Stark park is very close and has some good hiking, as is Wilmington for a quick errand or dinner. The kids enjoyed the checkers/chess and other board games. DirectTV service was good, but so was the weather. Also there is a chromecast, but note internet is 5 down 1 up. It seemed to support light streaming from one device, however.
Suggest calling property management company if you have questions or needs, as no response to email. Response was quick when I called. Email was to inquire if property had curtains (it does not in most rooms, so take your sleeping mask in the summer). Call was to request HVAC system be switched to summer mode, as thermostat is locked within a set range based on season. This was promptly changed upon request.
Would stay here again in the future if I had a large group.

The house is very clean and have more stuff than we had expected in the kitchen. Cardboard games were kids' favorite. My family had a good time living there.
The only hiccup was that we lost water the morning we were leaving. So we have to fetch some water from the stream outside to clean the toilet. It is not anyone's fault, may be caused by the storm Henri that just passed the area.

Beautiful and private home
This house was lovely for our family vacation in the woods. The home has nice furnishings and gorgeous details in the construction. Rustic feel with all the amenities you could need. We went in the “off season” for the area, late summer. The downtown was super small and a lot of stores weren’t open. If you are going during ski season this house is absolutely perfect,

The house is spacious. We were only 4 so there was more room than we needed. The house was pretty clean but can use a good deep cleaning. I’m not sure anyone else would notice but the corners etc could have been cleaner. It was well stocked with towels and I loved the little new bottle of dish soap and sponge. Important: This house has not curtains or shades, not even the bathrooms! You can’t use the bathrooms or showers at night if anyone is outside as they can see everything! It’s quite strange.Also, be prepared to wake up at the crack of dawn. Despite this, we had a pleasant stay and I would only stay here again if they installed window shades.

The home was beautiful - plenty of bedrooms and nice airy living space. However, the internet was unbearably poor. Even limiting to just a single device, we had trouble staying connected for extended periods. I ran some speed tests and rarely got above 5 mpbs download, while upload was generally <1 mbps (making video calls a non-starter).
What was most frustrating was the lack of help we received despite escalating to Vacasa. After calling in a couple times, we eventually got someone on the phone who told us that the owner had three smart devices connected (which probably explained why there was so little bandwidth left for us). We asked to loop in the owner to see if we could find and/or temporarily disable one or two of these during the workday, but unfortunately received no follow-up. The net result was lots of time spent calling in without any resolution to our problem. So overall it's a nice place, but I wouldn't recommend it if you actually need any internet, or if you want any help resolving challenges you face while there.

The house was great for a big group. Plenty of common space to gather and spend time. We hiked at a local state(?) park/campground and visited the Beer Naked Brewery and a local distillery. Both places were awesome and only 5 minutes up the road.
House was clean and had lots of kitchen utensils/cutting board/etc which is a hit or miss at a lot of VRBO type places.

Beautiful house, they just need to work on the small details.
Vacasa manages the home, you have to do the same paperwork 2 time, plus extra. No blinds or curtains in the entire house and it is super bright inside. There is no interior wall insulation, you can hear EVERYTHING. Good location with a cute little brook, except people have left trash bags everywhere.
The house is pretty, the kitchen had enough for us to just cook at the home. No grill. The bedrooms are large, the beds are not very comfortable.

We had a lot of fun staying at this spacious home! Everything was pretty easy and worked well for us. Some of the bedding was stained / a little dirty, communication with the property manager was slow (couple of days), and we had 0 check-out directions. Other than those minor things, we had a great time, close to Mount Snow for a fun weekend of skiing!
