Beautiful property close to awesome adventures

The property is more than accommodating for a family. Most necessities are on site. The property is definitely geared towards families and the decor sets the mood for the local scene. Coming from Florida, we weren’t sure what to expect but we really loved the community and the environment around. The kids were sad to leave and are already asking when we will come back. We look forward to returning and would definitely recommend to anyone looking to visit Vermont!

Perfect home for a larger group

We stayed for a long weekend with a 3-generation family of 10 people. We all liked the house: it is spacious and very well equipped. The thematic decorations are lovely. The beds are comfortable. The pool/table tennis table was a big hit. The outside area with the picnic tables and firepit is beautiful. It is a short ride to Wilmington (many nice restaurants) and many great hiking spots. The host is super-responsive. All in all a great weekend and we highly recommend the house.

Wonderful house wonderful location

When we first arrived we were impressed by the cleanliness of the house and the grounds. Everything was exactly as we pictured from the listing. The rooms were comfortable, and the kitchen stocked with everything we needed. The house was suitable for the little ones with the playground and a nice big driveway. Private and peaceful. The host even supplied little extras like coffee pods - which was so unexpected and special. The house is literally 5-10 minutes from everything you may want to do in the area. Just perfect !

Extended family get-together

Kate was a wonderful host! The house was fantastic. The kitchen was stocked with absolutely everything we could have needed (and some!). The bathrooms had all the "extras" that you might forget. The beds were incredibly comfortable and lots of room for kids to move around from bed to bed depending on who wanted a sleep-over! We have rented a lot of houses across the country over the years and this was by far the best place we have stayed. There was so much to do - we told the kids the TV didn't work and they never even missed it! We were sad to leave. If our travels ever bring us to Vermont again, we will definitely return to this house. Thank you Kate!

June 2022 Weekend Getaway

Our family of 10 had a wonderful time at this property. There was plenty of room for all of us and the beds were comfortable. The living room was spacious and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals. There is a nice divider on the deck to separate the two sides of the house and we had our own fire pit and grill to use. We had a great time driving about 2 miles down the road the flea market, grocery store, and wonderful shops and restaurants. We would absolutely stay here again!

Fabulous Duplex for People that love Games

We had a wonderful experience staying at this beautiful and spacious property in Vermont. We were just a group of friends, a mix of couples and singles. It was the perfect place with a large living room spilt with a game room and the kitchen. It was very clean and the bedrooms and bathrooms were the perfect size.

Kate was very responsive. Kids enjoyed the pool table that converts to ping pong table and dining table and also Ms PAC Man. 20 minutes to Mt Snow and there was snow plowing on the day we have over 12 inches. Close to Shaws supermarket. Plenty of towels and linens. Thank you Kate!

Wonderful Mount Snow Vacation

We had a lovely time in this Wilmington getaway. The property was clean, comfortable and perfect for two families. The kids loved the pool table/ping pong table and darts. The super comfy and big couch was perfect for all of us to watch movies and the kitchen has everything you need to cook any meal. It is always a bonus to stay in a property that provides linens, essential cooking ingredients, trash bags and detergent. We loved being able to leave with clean laundry. It snowed while we were staying and the owners quickly cleared the walkway, driveway and porch. Excellent communication from the owners and easy check-in, check-out rounded out a great stay. Highly recommend this home and hope to return.

Friends Ski Trip at Mt Snow

Excellent cabin conveniently located 5 minutes from Shaw’s grocery and only 20 minutes to Mt Snow. Extremely well stocked kitchen for cooking dinner after hitting the slopes. Also, if you are booking this cabin during the cold winter months keep in mind that the memory foam mattresses take a bit to warm up and soften up.

Such a great spot!

So close to the sweet little town of Wilmington and about 20 minute drive to Mt Snow. Perfect for our VT skiing weekend. Lots of space for the adults and kids. A HUGE couch that fit all of us, a great kitchen stocked with all the necessities and coffee and hot chocolate and a fun pool/ping pong table and games. We had a blast and all slept well in comfy beds. Lots of extra blankets and pillows too for everyone. Check in and check out process was super easy. Host communicated well and was there to answer all of our questions. We can’t wait to come back again!

Winter Stay

The house was very clean and came with everything we needed. Instructions were easy to follow and it was a fun space that comfortable fit the group. The billiards/ping pong/dining table was the hit of the visit! Beds were comfortable with more than enough towels, blankets, pillows and dishes/flatware.

About the host

Hosted by Kate Wurtzel

Host profile image
Originally from Long Island, NY, my husband and I have been visiting the Mount Snow area since we were teenagers and always dreamed of one day owning a home in the Green Mountain State. We fell in love with Wilmington for its quaint village feel, proximity to Mount Snow, and access to the Harriman Reservoir.

During the pandemic, we made the leap—selling our home on Long Island and purchasing a duplex in Wilmington. We thoughtfully renovated and decorated both units, giving each its own character while focusing on comfort, quality, and functionality for family stays.

Now empty nesters with two kids in college, we spend time both in Vermont and away during the winter season. While we are not on-site full time, the home is well cared for and professionally supported locally, and we remain readily available to ensure guests have a comfortable, seamless stay.
