An idyllic spot and magical weekend! Diane and Mike were such gracious hosts. The house and setting is gorgeous and so comfortable! We had everything we needed! A real treat! I cannot recommend this place enough!
Our family had a wonderful three day stay in this rustic mountain home. The home is quaint but updated with every thoughtful amenity and was a perfect home base for us for Middlebury graduation weekend (if a bit of a drive!)
We were looking for a place convenient to various ski areas with room for family that would be comfortable for a month. The place was perfect! Vermont charm, perfect hosts and all the amenities we needed. We couldn’t have chosen better and hope to return! Highly recommended
My fiance & I had a wonderful stay at Mike & Diane's home with our dogs. This home is the quintessential Vermont getaway. Everything we needed was at our fingertips and Mike & Diane were kind enough to offer many local store and restaurant suggestions in the area. Great for exploring or staying indoors to relax. We cannot wait to book our next stay!
This property is wonderful, everything you need to have a great stay. Very peaceful and plenty of room for dogs to run around. Would definitely recommend.

A delightful Vermont experience!
The property was charming, well-appointed with generous room sizes and lovely furnishings. A very comfortable stay.
The photos for this property do not do this listing justice. The house was darling, and the pond-side fire pit and tables made for magical evenings by the fire. I hope to come back soon!
Great house and very centrally located. The house was very clean and inviting with plenty of room. The location was perfect for the things we wanted to do in Warren, Sugarbush and Mad River; check it out!
We spent 10 days in the farmhouse over Christmas and New Year. It was a beautiful property - cozy and warm in the snow for relaxing and special family time; and an amazing location to go exploring (snowshoeing around the property, snow tubing, ice skating, skiing, hiking all nearby). Mike and Diane were the kindest, most generous hosts, helping us out with recommendations in the local area, getting snow shoes for us and even putting up a Christmas tree ahead of our arrival. Thank you both for making this a real trip to remember. I can't recommend this property enough. Book it now!
We enjoyed the house as a family of 6. Lots of room to spread out or cuddle on the large couch. We loved the sauna, small frozen pond, fire pit, and wood-burning stove.
If this place is available, book it. The house itself is spacious and comfortable and is situated on 70 acres of land with walking trails and a pond. Close proximity to a bunch of recreation in the Green Mountains, as well as the mad river area near Waitsfield. We stayed for a couple weeks in June and had an absolute blast. Highly recommend
We loved staying at this property
The property managers were so friendly and helpful. We will definitely be going back. Diane and Mike made it feel like home. The home was very nice and we had everything we needed. First time for us renting a home and honestly can’t see staying anywhere else in Vermont.
This beautiful old farm house has been meticulously maintained. Very quiet spot in the mountains but not too far from some restaurants, grocery,… We had all we needed to cook inside with gas stove and outside on the propane grill. The kitchen was stocked with staples for cooking. It was very relaxing and easy to feel at home there. We built a fire in the fireplace a few nights. We enjoyed looking at the pond at different times of day and in different types of weather. Fed the trout too. Diane was easy to contact and responsive to all questions. The hosts live next door so they can easily stop by if needed. She quickly replaced the grates on the propane grill when I mentioned they were very worn and starting to fall apart. Quality linens and towels. Modern heating system made it easy to keep the house comfortable in changing weather.
Nice place as advertised. Special thank for welcoming pets and not charging extra fees to them. If you need to go shopping or eating, you will be better driving north along route 100, not south.
The home was even nicer than the pictures. It was so well appointed and welcoming. It did not feel like a rental but rather like we stepped into a farmilar home. The furniture, decor, pots and pans, bedding were very good quality and made the stay that much more enjoyable. The welcome basket was going above and beyond. We were so grateful we could bring our small dog. It was especially nice to meet Diane which made our stay even more personalized. I would highly recommend this property and if I were in the area, I would love to stay there again.
If I could give these hosts a 10 star rating I would. Diane and Mike were fantastic, extremely responsive and very kind. We wanted a quiet peaceful place for our family to be together as we were back east for a family burial. This place fit the bill perfectly. Upon arrival we found farm fresh eggs supplied as well as a beautiful bouquet of fresh lilacs. The farmhouse is close to the Stowe Waitsfield area and near one of the most scenic drives in Vermont. I would highly recommend staying here.
The farmhouse was everything we had hoped for, and then some. The house is comfortably furnished, cozy yet spacious and meticulously maintained. There was a pleasant attention to detail from the complementary pancake mix and maple syrup to the vase of lilies awaiting our arrival. Diane and Mike were excellent hosts who clearly care about the property and were extremely knowledgeable about the area. They live nearby and can be reached easily but are respectful of their guests privacy. During a Vermont heatwave we were especially thankful for the nearly silent window air conditioners.
Be aware that groceries are a half hour away and that cell phone service is very spotty. However, if you plan accordingly, you could not find a better spot to enjoy Vermont.
