Dorset Hotel Guide - Dorset Historical Society Museum hotels in Dorset, United States of America.

"Wish all rentals were this great!The house is charming, neat, soulful, nicely decorated and the kitchen is incredibly well stocked with everything a chef could want. This feels like a person's home, not an impersonal rental. The owner was super responsive when we had a few questions. Would stay here again anytime."

"I have stayed in a lot of rental properties over the years. This is without question the best one. Perfect location, immaculately kept, super well provisioned to make the stay comfortable. And very accommodating, gracious owners.Cannot recommend highly enough."

"I’ve stayed at this home three times now. It is beautiful, well appointed, and conveniently located for activities in Southern VT. The hosts are great, welcoming, and so easy to work with. Great experience."

"Beautiful home! Lovely open floor plan with lots of beautiful windows. We enjoyed the fireplace and winter views. Two of the bathrooms could use some little touch ups. The bedrooms were great! "

"The house was absolutely beautiful and so well located! Right by the town of Manchester and 30 mins to Stratton. The host was extremely responsive and kind, allowing us to check in early for our convenience. Would definitely return to this property!"

"Charming place and beautiful setting "

"We stayed at the Dorset Cottage Retreat for a long weekend in February. It was very comfortable for 2 parents, our teenager and our small dog. The cottage was cozy, clean and had everything we needed. The hosts were incredibly thoughtful and kind and we felt so well taken care of! It is very convenient to both Dorset and Manchester, Bromley and Stratton. "

"We rented the house for Thanksgiving and had a lovely time in Dorset. Also, the large “great room” was perfect for a family gathering, and had a wonderful fireplace for us to gather around. But overall, the house just didn’t seem like the person managing the rental thinks like a vacationer and cares about the full experience.For ex: The listing says it has 2 queens. Due to how expensive the house is, we had 2 families sharing the expense. 1 Queen was upstairs, off the kitchen with a full bath. And the other one was actually a full-sized bed and down in the dank basement with the kid rooms. There was a second primary bedroom with on that first level- but there was only a trundle bed in it. Odd.Another thing that was a big issue was the smell of sewage in the basement. We arrived on Wednesday before Thanksgiving and I smelled it immediately. The management service’s contractor came by and poured bleach down the drain and said to contact him the next day if that didn’t help. That didn’t help. Now it just smelled like sewage mixed with bleach. And keep in mind that this is the level where the majority of us are sleeping. I didn’t call the next day because it was Thanksgiving and I just didn’t want to ruin a holiday and make someone pump a sewage system. I actually gave this feedback to the mgt co first and expected them to update the site with bed size or offer some refund for our sewage experience. But after 2 weeks that never happened. Hoping this helps others. "

"The house was clean, well kept furniture and appliances, and the hosts were friendly. The location and weather were great for a relaxing quiet weekend. "
