Peaceful, cozy and spectacular views.

Every need accommodated including a back-up generator! Well appointed kitchen and bathrooms. Very cozy and spacious home inside. Very comfortable bed mattress in master bedroom. Lots of yard for dogs to run free. Nature all around. Lots of books and board games there. Laundry room was a big plus. Remote setting but lots to see and explore within reach. Very lovely stay and hosts were very responsive.

The house was perfect for our family of 8 and a dog. It was well stocked with everything we needed to make meals and feel comfortable. We all enjoyed the large deck overlooking the beautiful yard. It was also convenient to some nice hiking spots.

Peaceful retreat

From the photos on this listing, I knew there would be beautiful views. We were able to watch the partial lunar eclipse from the balcony off the primary bedroom! I think the best part, was how quiet it is. The property is fairly close to the parks we wanted to visit and the driving we did involved almost no traffic on winding country roads. The owners made sure the house was well stocked with supplies. I had brought a couple of books with me but found myself perusing the incredible number of books - including some childhood favorites on the shelves downstairs.

Beautiful Secluded Property

My family and I enjoyed a nice getaway in the woods with plenty of wildlife. The house is very cozy and has plenty of beds and chairs. The property is beautiful and has an awesome sunrise coming over the mountains. The dogs enjoyed running around the yard. We will be looking to stay here again in the future.

Beautiful refuge in the hills of southern Vermont

Wonderful house on a gorgeous hilltop property. Hosts are kind and reached out to us to ask if we needed anything and we wound up having a longer chat about the history of the area. If you're a cyclist like me, this area can't be beat for gravel riding.

Wonderful experience & hosts

We stayed at the house for almost a week. We loved that is was secluded, with a huge and accessible property where the kids did a lot of sledding and bushwacking. Donna and Chris are super responsive and accessible. They graciously offered us an extra night at no cost to ride out a snow storm. We hope to return again!

Amazing property!

I planned a last minute solo vacation and this property was perfect. Set on 25 acres with incredible views, the home is situated atop a small mountain and very serene. Tons of stacked firewood and a great wood stove made for relaxing days reading and resting which is just what I needed. The owners were excellent with communication and my dog loved romping through the snow as we walked around the property. I will definitely be back with other family members!

Felt right at home

Quick and friendly communication from the Owner, clean, authentic home with acres of privacy. The property was already plowed and shoveled for our arrival at the tail end of a nor'easter. We loved the house so much we started looking at plans to build our own. Short drive through the quaint villiages to the ski slopes. We hope to stay here on our next trip to Vermont.

A great weekend getaway

We had a wonderful time. Great location, just a short 10 min drive Wilmington where there are shops and restaurants. Close to Mount Snow, 30 min drive. The home had great charm. Roomy enough for 10 and two dogs. A little too cluttered for my liking and could have felt cleaner ie. there was a bowl of previous tenants bacon grease left on window ledge above the sink. We would definitely go back.

Extraordinary Experience!

This is our Vermont favorite! Perched way up among the hills, this affordable and rustic homestead has spectacular views of the region. There is not another home to be seen from the property. The peaceful privacy is a rare find. Without the light pollution of a city, the stars glow so brightly in the night sky. We loved the spacious deck, whirlpool tub, fire pit, and wood burning stove. Dogs love running around the acreage. Home is clean and comfortable. Fast Wifi. It's also great location and relatively short drive to local dining and recreational spots including Mt Snow valley, lakes, and parks. We enjoy kayaking the Harriman Reservoir and hiking Molly Stark Park. The owners are gracious, responsive, and very helpful with recommendations. Their family goes back generations in the area so they are a wealth of information to help you have that authentic visit that most tourists miss. Highly recommended. We will be back!

The condition of the house is very far from the city and the worst part is that the house is everywhere. Chad dolls and pig puppets are like cursed houses and the bed sheets are very dirty. It is not possible to sleep on the pillows because of the head odor. I tried to sleep by covering the pillows with a towel. I rented the house because the people who recommended it gave good grades to that house. I don't understand why they gave good marks, I definitely do not recommend that house to anyone.
