We had a fantastic stay at aWhipporwhill as always! We had a great time enjoying everything the property had to offer- hiking, games, sauna, relaxing on the overlook, and grilling. This is the best equipped (and labeled) rental with everything you need to enjoy the property. We have stayed here 5 times and will certainly be back again!

This beautiful home was perfect for our large family. (Yep, all the beds were full). Yet we were very comfortable. Clean and spacious! We stayed here 5 years ago and since then a swing set and play house with a sand box was added. The house has everything you could need inside and outside. Basketball, pickleball, horseshoes, fire pit, sauna etc etc. The communication was great from the owner right down to maintenance and cleaning who we had to contact because we forgot something. Usually once you checkout no one calls you back so that deserves an extra 5 stars. Hope to return and stay again.

Amazing stay!

This property is the best short term rental I’ve encountered. The house is stocked with everything you need and the amenities like the sauna, game room, and BBQ pits are all welcome features to the immaculate grounds. We made many fond memories and look forward to returning.

This is our fifth time at Eric’s lovely property and we had a wonderful time, as always. The house has ideal accommodations for many adults and the kitchen is fully stocked with any tool you could need. Eric is always very responsive and welcoming. The property is beautiful. I highly recommend staying here!

We loved this place. We were there for a family event in the area, so sadly we didn't get to enjoy it as we would have liked to. I'd love to go back and spend more time there. It was so well stocked and family friendly. Communication was great. Beds were comfy. Beautiful place with lots to do.

Perfect Retreat

This is our third time having a group of friends cook and play chamber music at Eric’s wonderful home. It’s the perfect size, with excellent sleeping arrangements, a fantastic kitchen, and plenty of other things to keep us occupied, particularly the trails. We already have our next stay booked!

Another Great Stay at Whippoorwill!

This was our family's second visit to Whippoorwill and it was even better than our first. The house and property are so unique and peaceful. The owner has been fantastic and goes above and beyond to make the property feel like a home; not just a rental. Everyone in our family off 11, ranging in ages from 9 to 78, absolutely love this special place!!

Loved Our Week Away!

Second time here and def a fave with all our family! Spending a week with our kids and grandkids is so special, and this place fits us all. Love the property where the kids can be outside on their own while parents relax over a cup of coffee. Enjoyed the warm November weather during the days, and fires at night, both inside and out. Can’t wait til next time!

Perfect escape

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely property. The house is so nice, the kitchen is so well appointed, they have thought of everything you might need. The range of activities was so fun from pickle ball, to darts, ping pong etc. we loved sitting at the deck at the top of the hill with the beautiful view of the mountains.

Amazing Property and Weekend

The property is spectacular. The house is well stocked, comfortable and had everything (and more!) than we needed. There was a ton to do on the property itself and hiking was a 20 minute drive. We will definitely be back again!

Amazing weekend

The house and property are amazing. The host has made check in and out very clear and is very easy to get a hold of and communicate with. My friends and I held a chamber music weekend and had a wonderful time playing and using the amazing kitchen. We’ll probably be booking again this year!

40th bday celebration

This is our 4th stay at Eric's place and I think that speaks for itself. This property is well taken care of and is such an amazing space. The house is beautiful but my favorite thing about this place is all the outdoor space, the fire pit, the hiking trails etc we will be back! Thanks for an awesome bday trip!

Just as wonderful as i remembered.

Our group of 13 ladies returned after 8 years for a weekend to recharge physically, mentally and spiritually. We wandered through the woods, enjoyed the pickle ball court and cooked great healthy meals in the very well-stocked kitchen. This farm is definitely a place of retreat!

Well provisioned house in a lovely setting

We love Whipporwill Manor! The house has everything you can think of - seriously, everything! Our group took advantage of the bikes, the fully equipped kitchen, the ample space for lounging and playing chamber music, and the perfectly suited bedrooms for our configuration. The property is gorgeous and the home is cozy. I can’t recommend this listing enough!

Fall Retreat

Whippoorwill is a wonderful property and perfect for our group of 10 people. The foliage was still brilliant and the weather was nice enough for us to grill one day. They have everything you could possibly want for cooking and recreation. The host and caretakers are very easy to get in touch with and are lovely people. We highly recommend this property!

Whippoorwill Manor Farm is a special place!

I stayed with my family (11 in total), ranging from 8 to almost 80 years old. Whippoorwill was a truly unique property, and experience, for us all. The home and area are beautiful and there's so much to see and do on the property. The home is incredibly well-stocked and the owner was fantastic to work with. We'll definietly return. Highly recommend!
