This lovely 3,000 sq. ft. Post & Beam home is situated on a private 5 acre homestead in Killington, VT.

The open floor plan features solid oak timber framing, towering cathedral ceilings and oversized windows which seems to pull the natural surroundings indoors.

Don't forget your golf clubs! The property has a 120 yard practice hole you can use to sharpen your short game. When you'r ready to play 18, Green Mountain National, Vermont's No.1 rated public golf course is only .75 miles from the house.

Family week at Killington/Pico

There were 9 of us. Six adults & 3 children, 13, 9, & 5. We were all happy with the house. It was clean & well stocked. The rooms were comfortable and there was plenty of space in the kitchen/dining area & the living room was spacious & comfortable. Communication with the owner was outstanding.

Killington family ski trip

Great location to ski Killington. Loved the wood burning stove, and use of the garage was a plus since we have some bad weather. Lots of space to spread out along three floors. Host was very helpful.

Ski Trip

This was our 2nd year in a row staying at this place. Great location to the ski hill and very relaxing home to come back to after a long day on the ski hill. Highly recommend staying at this house. John is a great host!

Beautiful!

House was spacious, clean, and in a beautiful area. You can tell that it’s geared more toward winter tourism, but the area and home were great for a summer visit anyways - just bear in mind that not every room has air conditioning. (It wasn’t a problem for our trip). The property manager was quick to respond to inquiries and pleasant in our interactions. Would definitely recommend to friends.

A Great Retreat

The families of our two children, 8 people altogether, stayed for 5 nights and found the house spacious, comfortable and well-stocked. It suited us all perfectly. We made a few fun visits to the nearby town recreation center for swimming and pickle ball. The host was very communicative and welcoming.

Awesome Ski House with Great Location

This is a superior, roomy, immaculate dwelling. John the host was awesome and very attentive. The house was perfect for our group - we have been renting properties in and around the Killington area for over thirty (30) years now and to date we have yet to find a place that compares to this house. Just a lovely space for our group.

Plenty of space for a large family or 2 family's

The property was set in the woods and it was beautiful. The hosue is perfect for 2 familys, or 1 large family. Plenty of space for everyone. I house needs a little tlc in some areas and we wish the yard was mowed so we could have enjoyed the back yard more

Great house and fun trip.

House is big with a separate floor, which the teens enjoyed. Nice fire pit and fun golf tee. Pond is drained so outside photos need updating. The living area and dining area are both big and comfortable. Kitchen was well furnished. We all really enjoyed the property and will come back next year!

Ski vacation

We are a group of friends that have been skiing together for years. John’s house suited us perfectly. We especially liked the big table that sat everyone comfortably. The upper oven on the stove took some figuring out but we eventually mastered it. We intend on returning.

The house was great, in a secluded and pretty setting, quintessential Vt.

We were a multi generational group of 12 and the house was perfect. There was plenty of space, the beds were comfortable, and the seating smf furniture arrangement was also comfortable and acccomodated all of us. We prepared 2 fairly elaborate dinners and the kitchen was well equipped for all our cooking and the dining room table was great for a large group. The owner, Frank, was very responsive, answered all our questions and was very helpful. We had a great visit and would definitely return.

I think this house can fit 12 ppl easily The house was very nice and clean except for one little stain when we arrived in the basement but was taken care off after a brief communication with the owner The owner always promptly responded to whatever questions we have This was actually the second time I have stayed here and will definitely be back again Hugh house and affordable… excellent combination for any rental and highly recommended

Secluded, spacious, pet friendly retreat

Our family enjoyed six happy and relaxing days and nights at this friendly and spacious Vermont house. We combined a short vacation along with our teenage son's golf tournament held at the nearby Green Mountain National Golf Course. The four of us, and our dog, also hiked nearby Mountains to beautiful vistas. The house and grounds were clean, well kept and very well described in the listing; even better than we anticipated. The owner was just a phone call away and was friendly, responsive and very helpful when we had a few questions after arriving. We would definitely like to plan a longer return stay in the future. And, we would recommend this house to anyone interested including our friends and family.

No house is perfect

Great main space to cook, relax and spend time as a group. Overall the house was spotless, but the fridge and oven needed some attention. The location and property is beautiful and well maintained. As a host, I was disappointed not having a proper private on suite bathroom. The only bedroom with private bathroom was located in the basement and was exposed to the home boiler, hot water tank and laundry. Not a pleasant experience when using the bathroom and also inconvenient when guest wanted to use laundry machine. Out of the 5 bedrooms, 3 couples complained about the mattress quality and not sleeping well. Great home for a large group.

Beautiful setting, Ideal location

We have rented from John Frank for the last several years during the summer months when we enjoy the kicked-back experience of Vermont in the off-season. We have found John to be very easy to communicate with. We enjoy many things about our summers in Vermont, including kayaking, driving the back roads and enjoying the scenery, swimming, visiting museums and historic and scenic sites, etc. Lest we attract competition, I don't want to wax too eloquent about these particular accommodations and property, but they are very clean, very well-equipped and well-maintained. Would be perfect for your fall or winter or spring get-away (LOL). Eating out recommendations: In Rutland: Gill's for wonderful sub sandwiches, Little Harry's for dinner out, In Bethel: Tozier's for great seafood, their onion rings are to die for! and finally, The Swiss Farm Inn in Pittsfield really does have the best (and cheapest) breakfasts around. We lovermont in the summer!

About the host

Hosted by John Frank

Host profile image
Our family has been Killington vacation home owners for more than 30 years. We continue to enjoy the four season activities that Vermont has to offer and try to get to the area whenever our busy schedule permit.

Why they chose this property

After owning our previously Killington vacation home for 20 years, we had the opportunity to purchase this large modern home in a more private and relaxed section of town.

What makes this property unique

The Post & Beam design gives this home a wonderful rustic feel that seems to fit right in with the Vermont landscape. The homes towering cathedral ceilings, large windows and elevated private setting give visitors wonderful views of the surrounding mountains. Situated on a private road, with landscaped grounds and a private pond, this property gives guests the sense of staying on their own private compound.
