The house was perfect for my family! We loved it so much. It was clean, spacious and beautiful. It had toys for the kids, games for the adults and AC for the heat wave we experienced. Check in and out was super easy and Brian gave me some great recommendations for places to check out in the area. 10/10 recommend. We will definitely be back!

Great spot

Great home, truly beautiful surroundings and easy drive to lots of stuff. We tackled Mass MoCA, kayaking in Brattleboro and mountain adventures at Bromley. Plus all the small towns and pit stops along the way. Very family friendly house with basement for older kids and well child-proofed for any youngsters.

Amazing Christmas stay

We stayed for 5 nights over Christmas and had an amazing family vacation. A perfect white Christmas filled with dinners made in the well equipped kitchen and sledding in the backyard. The holiday decor in the house was the cherry on top. Brian was good at communicating and helped to swiftly iron out an issue that came up. Thanks so much for the memorable stay!!

New Years getaway

The house was super cute and showed exactly as listed online. Besides food it had everything we needed. There were a couple issues that presented and the owner was quick to deal with and even gave a refund for inconvenience (ex. internet out due to a storm). The house was very comfortable and the kids all loved the downstairs gaming room. Would love to go back in the summer to explore the property more!

Great house

Stayed over a long weekend with two families with kids ranging from 11-14. The house was very clean and well stocked. Plenty of towels and sheets and blankets are clean and comfortable. Basement was a great place for the kids to hang out and they enjoyed darts, Pac-Man etc.. Yard and deck areas were great.

Perfect Thanksgiving in VT

Brian's house was perfect for a Holiday getaway. The house was even more beautiful than we anticipated. Very spacious, comfortable, quiet location with plenty to do at the house (wifi is a bit spotty, but did not hinder us). It was a bonus that we could bring our 2 dogs- they loved the yard space and walks down the nearby dead-end road. Brian was super attentive when we had questions. Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

Marvelous stay!

We spend a lovely family & friends week-end in this place. How to not recommend a warm, cozy, well-decorated, so well furnished, remote and quiet place? Everything was sparkling clean, very nice information provided for the area, more towels/soaps/cream that we would have needed... and such a great place for kids thanks to these very nice basement and toys! Communication was excellent and full of humor, THANK YOU!!!

Winter Wonderland

It was an absolute pleasure staying at Brian's home. It was the cleanest, most well stocked vacation rental I have ever rented. The adults enjoyed the outdoors and skiing at Mount Snow and there was plenty of open space for our family dog to roam. We also had a 2.5 year old toddler with us who had plenty of toys and books (and might have been more excited about the property then we were). We will definitely be returning in the future! Thanks for a fabulous stay :)

Serene

Every year we take a family ski vacation. Our kids ages are 21/2, 6, 14, 15 and 16. There was plenty enough to do for each of them. The house has 3 levels and is comfortable, quiet and cozy. The surrounding wooded property was enjoyed by our dogs and allowed us to snowshoe everyday while the others were at Mt Snow. Brian was very responsive and accommodating.I really appreciated the clear and concise labels and instructions on things from the remotes to the community pantry. The kitchen was well stocked. Linens n towels were plentiful as were paper goods. Although it was too cold and wintry to use, there was an inviting front porch, deck and downstairs patio which would all be wonderful weather permitting. Due to the location WiFi can be spotty but was a blessing in disguise! We had one of the best ski trips ever! Thank you to Brian for all the inviting, warm touches that made settling in so easy!
