We stayed at the Bijou during early October for a leaf peeping trip. Our party of six plus our dog had an amazing experience. The property is so beautiful and you really do feel like you are on the top of a mountain away from all the hustle bustle. Gina was awesome and answered all our questions about local dining and other logistics. She went above and beyond to make our stay memorable and very comfortable. The home is very well stocked and has everything you might need. It is dog and kid friendly and has ample space for a couple of families to hang out. All in all, it was a fantastic trip and we would definitely be saying here again if we ever come this side. Do not hesitate to book the Bijou for your next getaway to Vermont!!
Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2026

Why they chose this property


Great Hawk is a private mountainside community in Rochester, Vermont, just off Route 73. Designed by noted architect Robert Williams as one of six communities, it includes approximately 90 homesites, common land, a pond, tennis/pickleball courts, playground, and other shared amenities.

Rochester is a small town in the Green Mountain National Forest along the White River Valley, about 25 minutes north of Killington. Residents enjoy year-round recreation nearby—hiking, golfing, and bicycling in warmer months, and downhill and cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and snowmobiling in winter—along with easy access to Killington, Sugarbushand, Middlebury Bowl, and other outdoor destinations across central Vermont.

What makes this property unique

The vibe, location, spacious, fab. Host! A unique and inviting mountainside retreat with plenty of space for you and your guests, plus games and great amenities. The Bijou is spacious, and the kitchen is well stocked for cooking at home. The great room is the perfect place to hang out and spend quality time with friends and family. It's an ideal spot to meet up for year round fun. Rochester is an adorable little town. RESPONSIVE 5 Star HOST on other site.
