Haven is a Place on Earth

Hillside Haven checked off all the boxes... Ideal Location. Modern Amenities that didn't detract from the quaint ski cottage appeal. Super cozy. Popcorn Machine !?! Hot Tub was the icing on the snow bunny cake. Wonderful time for kids and parents alike. Making plans to book for next year.

Memories made at Christmas in Vermont

For the second year, my family of 10 and one dog, returned to our favorite Christmas retreat at Hillside Haven. The older, but well maintained farmhouse, offers an ambience that one just doesn't experience in a modern dwelling. We love how the house seems to ramble from one end to the other with two staircases for easy access to the four bedrooms upstairs as well as the cozy kitchen and living room downstairs. The living room had enough seating for all of us to watch cheesy Hallmark movies when not out skiing at Okemo or in the hot tub. Okemo's entrance is five minutes away and its proximity made it easy to drop off and pick up skiers rather than park there. The hot tub is one of the highlights of everyone's stay. The owner, David, leaves clear instructions on how to use it and there are plenty of towels in the mudroom/laundry room. The washer-dryer is a must with kids and is highly efficient. Overall, the house is well stocked and if anything is needed, or if you have questions, the owner is but a phone call away. We found the beds to be comfortable and there were plenty of blankets available. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and appliances that you may need such as a waffle iron or crock pot. Ludlow is a cute town full of little shops and restaurants and an easy walk from the house. We have already booked our next Christmas memory for 2024 At Hillside Haven.

Great stay during President's Week

We stayed at Hillside Haven with our family and one other (4 adults, 5 kids ages 8-11). The house fit our group perfectly, including a small dining table for the adults in the kitchen while the kids enjoyed the main dining area. House was very convenient to Okemo Clock Tower, Jackson Gore and Ludlow town. Despite it being a very old house, everything in the house worked great and the kitchen was well stocked. Host was very helpful and responsive, too. The only thing I would caution about is that it is right on VT Rte 100, so if you're in a front bedroom, you'll hear every car/truck/plow that goes by at night. With that said, it was 2 mins from just about everything you would ever need, so just depends on what experience you're looking for. Would definitely stay here again.

Family ski weekend

My family very much enjoyed this house for our annual ski vacation. It was large enough to comfortably fit all of us, and the proximity to downtown Ludlow and Okemo was perfect. There was one issue that the property manager was very quick to respond to, and it was resolved.
