What a fabulous stay! The house was beautiful and clean with everything you could possibly need. Was great for our family while we came up to visit friends. Plus the views are incredible! Thank you to Jeff, we’ll definitely plan to come back again!
The home was clean, comfortable, and wonderful. We were able to come and go as we pleased. It was easy to communicate with the owner and they took care of everything. There was everything we needed for our stay. Thank you!
My family and friends LOVED their visit to Vermont and were so comfortable in this home. Plenty of room for everyone, everything you need to cook, relax, and enjoy. We wouldn't hesitate to book again.
This house is in a great location if you are looking to visit most of Vermont. And it was also a great area to walk, which we do a couple times a day. The info left at the house is great for learning about places to visit and small towns.
Nice quiet location good for traveling to various places
This home offered lots of nice conveniences from outlets for phones, a grill, a movie room, big kitchen and a deck to relax on!
We loved the location because we could easily travel to Burlington, Waterbury, Stowe as well as Camel Hump for hiking!
My Son, Grandson, and I were looking for a place to getaway for a few days after Christmas. This place was perfect. The owners were easy to reach and very hospitable; the house was clean and kept nicely; and views were tremendous. Would highly recommend this for any family or group looking to enjoy some quality away time.
The property was as described in listing. Short travel time to popular destinations. A lot to do in town as well. Many nice roads/trails and good restaurants in town. Very nice and private, definitely would stay again.
We had a wonderful stay at this property. Had everything you could ever need. House is in a beautiful area with spectacular views of the mountains. Perfect house with teenagers. It was like they could have the whole downstairs themselves. Would highly recommend property. Great hosts too. Thank you.
My wife and I enjoyed 24 days at this quiet, secluded residence which was as advertised in its VRBO listing. The owner immediately responded to a few minor issues we had. I'll also share that the Wi-Fi and cell service were excellent.
I rented this home for my son and daughter to stay with me, while we visited my other daughter and her family. The home is very nice, well equipped, with a beautiful view.The owners keep the place imaculate.There had been
We loved that the location was secluded in the mountains yet was only a ten minute drive away from the market and restaurants. Home was wonderful; it was comfortable, and well stocked, as advertised. The property is beautiful. We loved walking our dogs in the woods and along the dirt road to Gillet Pond. We will absolutely be back, loved it.
We had such an amazing stay. Jeff was super communicative and easy to talk to (we came around the flooding so we’re unsure how the roads etc would be). The house was immaculately clean and had everything you could ever need and more. Quiet, peaceful and all around great. My kids are the toughest critics and declared it to be amazing. Would absolutely stay again. I cannot recommend this house enough!
Nicely laid out home on a quiet road in a nice town. Owner came immediately to assist with wifi issue. Downstairs bedroom allowed privacy for two couples
