About this property

Cozy country cape w/ fireplace & mountain views

Welcome to a cozy Vermont escape where mountain views and fireside evenings set the tone for your stay. This spacious Country Cape is ideal for families and ski groups looking to relax and reconnect:

- Sleeps 10 | 3 bedrooms | 11 beds | 2.5 baths
- Mountain view setting with expansive grounds
- Hearthstone stove for cozy winter nights
- Chef’s kitchen with 6-burner Vulcan stove
- Parking, WiFi, self check-in
- Pet-friendly (fee applies)

Snow settles quietly across the surrounding fields as you arrive by a private, scenic driveway, the mountains rising in the distance and warm light glowing from inside the house. After a day in the cold Vermont air, you kick off your boots, step indoors, and feel the comfort of a sun-filled Country Cape designed for slowing down and gathering together. Even in winter, the views and calm set the tone for an easy, unhurried stay.

The space
This classic Country Cape offers room for families, ski groups, and friends traveling together. Natural light fills the home, highlighting its mountain character and thoughtful layout. The living room centers around a hearthstone stove, creating an inviting place to unwind on snowy evenings with a book, a board game, or a movie playing softly in the background. French doors lead to a sunny terrace, offering crisp winter views across the grounds.

Kitchen and dining
The open kitchen and dining area is built for shared meals and conversation. A professional-grade 6-burner Vulcan stove anchors the space, paired with butcher block counters and a full kitchen setup for home cooking. Whether you’re preparing a hearty breakfast before hitting the slopes or a relaxed dinner after, the kitchen flows easily into the dining area for long, comfortable meals together.

Sleeping arrangements
The home accommodates up to 10 guests across three bedrooms and additional second-floor sleeping areas, offering flexibility for mixed-age groups:

Bedroom 1: King bed

Bedroom 2: Queen bed and twin bunks

Bedroom 3: Two double beds and twin bunks

Second-floor common area: Twin bed

Second-floor pass-through: Four twin beds

The mix of private rooms and shared sleeping spaces works well for families and groups, with 2.5 baths adding convenience during busy mornings and evenings.

Outdoor setting
The property opens to expansive lawns, stone terraces, and winding paths that lead to a hidden meadow with a pond. While winter encourages shorter strolls and quiet moments outdoors, the setting remains peaceful and scenic, framed by mountain views and open space.

Comfort and conveniences
A two-car attached garage, washer and dryer, WiFi, and self check-in via smart lock make arrivals and departures easy. Inside, you’ll find bathroom essentials, bed linens, towels, books, reading material, and board games for low-key nights in. Heating and an indoor fireplace keep the home comfortable throughout the colder months.

Pet-friendly stays
The home is pet-friendly for one dog only. A $125 non-refundable pet fee applies, and pets must be crated when left unattended and kept off the furniture.

Location and experience
Set in Waitsfield, this home is well positioned for winter trips focused on skiing at Sugarbush or Mad River Glen, as well as quieter stays spent enjoying mountain views and fireside evenings. It’s a place to come together, warm up, and settle into the steady rhythm of a Vermont winter retreat.
