Excellent trip!
We were so fortunate to lock into this location after a previous reservation was canceled extremely last minute. We came for the eclipse, and the location was absolutely breathtaking for it! The views are incredible. The property is wonderful. It’s so quiet! Very, very very close to Burke Mountain for skiing, the home is very comfortable. A lot of beds. There is a bit of temperature issue in the bedrooms upstairs. One bedroom was very comfortable. The other got very hot until we turned the heat off. No A/C, but fortunately we didn’t need it. The basement room is a bit musty but very comfortable. Hot water is very limited so much so that running the dishwasher and one shower depletes it until it refills. The kitchen was extremely well stocked with just about every pot, pan, utensil, dish, bowl, knife you could ever need! Two fridges were extremely convenient! Dishwasher worked well and the garbage disposal and trash compacted were great perks. The host was extremely welcoming and generous and very quick with responding to questions. We definitely would stay again.

This property is in a beautiful location. It has magnificent views of mountains and the sunset. The house however is a work in progress but for now is not suitable for families. The basement is musty with a dehumidifier that is not set up therefore we were not able to use the lower bedrooms. We improvised and squeezed into the 3 upper bedrooms. This caused additional confusion since there was a last minute change and the sheets were not included. There was some exposed wiring and limited hot water. The upper bath faucet had no hot water. Dining area was small for our group of 11 with one fridg not working properly so I am not sure how 18 could manage, yet beware of additional guest charges. With some care and updates i could see this being a nice place to stay

Environnement superbe, propriété qui a besoin d'amour
Beaucoup de tiques cette année, même dans la pelouse tondue, on n'a pas pu profiter de l'extérieur. Sous-sol de la maison sentant énormément l'humidité et le moisi, il y a une chambre que nous n'avons pas osé utiliser. Un film de poussière noire recouvrait toutes les surfaces à notre arrivée, nous avons nettoyé avant de s'installer. Mousticaires brisés, humidité ++ dans la maison. 2 matelats sans bases de lit, déposés Sur un autre matelat sale. Table de billard n'ayant pas de dégagement suffisant pour jouer, mais mini baguette fournie permettant de se débrouiller et de profiter du divertissement. Nous étions décus des installations, mais avons pu trouver notre plaisir qu'en même. Le propriétaire est sympatique et communique bien. Suffisamment de serviettes fournies. Apportez literie, sel poivre, huile etc... rien de fourni. Merci de votre prêt de propriété! Jessica

About the host

Hosted by Matt

Host profile image
My mom and dad loved Burke and the Northeast Kingdom. My dad was an Aeronautical Engineer at Pratt and Whitney—(A United Technologies (UTX) company). They searched for about two years for “a view”. In 1995 they located the prize property. He designed the home and construction began two years later. He designed and oversaw the construction of the house you are considering renting.

Why they chose this property

The house was built with 360 degree views. Northern winters and western winds necessitated the planting of 250 trees on the west side for a windbreak. The trees are now about 40’ tall and protect the house. The house is about one mile off Rt 5, five miles from Burke Mountain and seven miles from Exit 22 on Rt. 91. At the top of the paved (yes that’s how the locals knew my parents were “flatlanders”) 100 yard driveway there is parking for about 10 cars including two indoors under the house.

What makes this property unique

Should power go out, a full-house generator was installed in December 2012.
