RECENT REVIEW!
____________________________________________________________________________
This place is magical! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
We are SO HAPPY we chose to come to this TRUE Heaven in Vermont. When you first, arrive you know this place is special...You will see A Plus landscaping and the beautiful home that sits next to the peaceful sounds of the nearby stream. Inside there is comfy couches, chairs, beds, clean bathrooms, games, complimentary marshmallows and wine, and all of the items you need to feel comfortable and content. The swimming hole nearby is cool and refreshing. I did not fish with the provided fishing poles, but I did snorkel around and saw two rainbow trout in the hole. I recommend letting those fish grow, and just go down the road a bit to the bigger area that does have well stocked trout and other fish. Our hosts had five fishing poles with tackle to use if we had wanted. And the hosts are AMAZING. Susan, who I talked to, was so helpful, delightful, and caring about our stay. Getting to stay and enjoy this home is an experience you will NEVER forget. My wife and friends plan to come back forevermore to enjoy this this magical place. If you are lucky like we were, you can see the clouds and stars of the milky way. It was so clear here. And for the rest of the nights (July) we were treated to dazzling firefly shows. We are so grateful for time here and you definitely will be too.

Perfect
The river house was perfect! The sound of the babbling river rocked us to sleep. Our dog loved the privacy and freedom of the property. Bradford is a little gem in Vermont with excellent restaurants. Susan was a very responsive host! We WILL come crack soon.

Great Experience
We thoroughly enjoyed our week at the River House. Susan was an ideal host - communication was great and she's easily reached if needed. It's clear that she cares about the well maintained property and that you have a great time visiting it. We arrived to some thoughtful welcome gifts including yard games for the kids and all the trappings for smores. The house is very comfortable and well organized. Its not new, but is a perfect cabin by the river complete with privacy, a firepit, a great lawn, decks, and a well provisioned kitchen. The river level was quite high when we visited, so we couldn't swim, but we did manage some river walks. Saw a moose up on the hill one morning, and visited the Beetlejuice sites just up the road. Bradford is a short drive (5 miles) with a couple really nice restaurants (the Little Grille and Colatinas) and its a quick ride either down toward Hanover or over to great hiking on the NH side. Check in / check out is easy, all the linens, beds and bathrooms were clean, comfortable and neat. Though the house as no AC, it held the overnight cool inside through most of the afternoon and cools off very quickly with lots of windows and fans, so sleeping was not an issue despite the heat wave. Would definitely recommend this house for a comfortable, rustic getaway with lots to do nearby.

River House
A beautiful and relaxing spot. We loved the privacy (and the convenience of Bradford nearby.). In spite of the drought we and our dogs enjoyed the river. We appreciate how much Susan cares about her gorgeous place and her guests. We highly recommend Susan and Dutch as hosts!

Relaxing time
We had a great time enjoying the quiet and nature of VT. The only reason for 4 stars is all the furniture could use an update. On a rainy day, stuck in the house, it was hard to get comfortable. Otherwise, it was a fun time. We saw bald eagles, a beaver, and tons of hummingbirds.
