We've enjoyed our stay at the kirby. The view is breathtaking .Kitchen is fully stocked but some of the utensils have broken handles. But it wasnt a big deal. One of the upstair room have no air conditioner so it gets warm on a hot days. Overall we love the kirby and plan to come back next fall.

AMAZING spot!

My boyfriend, our aussie and I stayed here for a week while visiting some family. This place is outstanding, I cannot say enough good things. The cleanliness is extraordinary (we try to bring our pups with us when traveling and this was the cleanest rental by far). The location is top-notch, so quiet and relaxing yet close to trails and amenities. Todd was an extremely responsive host, no issues with anything. I highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for a comfortable, relaxing getaway in VT!

Cool spot!

As advertised. Very comfortable and clean. Love that it is in a quiet secluded spot. Just make sure you have an awd or 4x4 vehicle in winter (which the booking tells you) so that you can get up and down the road with ease. Great owner communication!

July 4th week

Worked really well as our home base for a visit with family in the NE Kingdom. The beds are comfortable (and lots of’em). Of course the view. S’mores on fire pit. We’re able to host a dinner. Jack’s cousin’s spent the night one time (their 1st sleep over ever!). Avalon told her Mom it was the perfect 1st time sleepover. Three beds in one room: perfect. Overall a great week. I even got out to ride the Kingdom Trails with my cousin-in-law!

Cool mountain retreat

We loved being at the Kirby cabin. The location is gorgeous and you really get that feeling of solitude, privacy and escape. I love that the owner isn't next door or constantly checking in on you. The kitchen is great for cooking, fire pit area excellent for evening hang outs, beds comfy, shower and laundry convenient and refreshing. We had three elder dogs with us and they loved the easy in and out access to the yard and the fact there is no traffic, neighbors or strange dogs to bother them. Windows could use a bit of a wipe down but not a big deal. The place smelled fresh and wonderful when we arrived. All in all as a vacation should be

Beautiful location in East Burke

Clean, well kept house with nicely equipped kitchen and laundry. The views to the north are stunning. Easy access to Burke. The owner kept the steep driveway clear during a snow storm so we could get in and out easily.

Beautiful Staycation!

We had a fabulous weekend here to celebrate a family birthday. The place was comfortable, spacious and clean, the views are better than the pictures, and it was the perfect spot for our family including two toddlers, a baby, and a couple of dogs! I'd love to come back one day. Todd was a wonderful and gracious communicator when I reached out to him directly, and he responded immediately for a question I had after our stay had ended. For future visitors, I would recommend checking in with him if you have questions about check-in and check-out. We didn't receive a lot of information ahead of time or during our stay, and were sometimes confused. Also, Google Maps is currently not updated on some major road closures due to flooding, so you may need to clarify directions before you leave (depending on where you're coming from so you don't get stuck or lost!).

Gorgeous Property

Todd's place is spacious, clean and the view cannot be beat. We enjoyed all the modern comforts of home while on our trip to the NE Kingdom to moutain bike.My only advice to future guests is to at least have an all wheel drive vehicle - the drive up to the property is a very steep grade.

Beyond Great

We stayed here for the eclipse of 2024. Upon arriving, we were blown away by the incredible view. Then, stepping inside to a spotless kitchen and living room confirmed we made the right choice. Morning coffee outside around the firepit gave way to a walk and then afternoon of eclipse watching. The kitchen is well-organized and appointed so making meals was a breeze and delight. Three bedrooms were comfortable and cozy and the nights were quiet. This is a place not to be missed - with our without the eclipse!

Hi my name is Todd. My hobbies are broom ball, back county skiing, snow shoeing in the woods with my dog, and snowmobiling. Summer driving on dirt roads in VT, water holes, hanging out with my cows and chickens, and boating and fishing. I have owned a construction/ landscaping business since 1992. Building this home in VT has always been a goal of mine

Why they chose this property

I looked for a home for two years around east Burke area The reason why I bought this house was because of the amazing view and the many activities this town had to offer. I brought the house in 2013. The home took me almost 3 years to finish it. In building this home, I always felt there something else I can do to it.
