We were in the area to attend Norwich University’s Homecoming weekend with our son who is a senior. The location was very convenient to campus. The setting of the cabin is breathtaking as it overlooks Sugarbush. We enjoyed sitting on the large deck and watching the sunset both evenings of our stay. The cabin’s kitchen is well stocked with cooking supplies. Our group of 5 was very comfortable and enjoyed our stay!

Yes pet friendly but we left our fur baby home. The house was great. Trash was never taken from last renters so it looks like a lot was left from us. House could use more dusting. But other than that. The house/location and stay was great. Would stay there again

Bait and switch. The cover photo shows an old cabin, which is indeed there however it is not accessible. Visitors stay in an adjoining newer house. The basement has a play area, but the air is really stuffy. There’s also a tremendous amount of junk down there and a huge heap of stuff piled up with the a bathroom curtain covering it.Overall, the house had a tremendous amount of dust and was downright messy with the owners belongings. Dust was on every lamp, under all of the beds, even on bookcases and toys. We had an issue with the cleaners, but the property manager was kind enough to refund the cleaning fee.The property owners really need to do a gut cleaning of this place and remove a bunch of things that are really useless and make the place downright sloppy to visitors.The only thing going for this place is that it had an incredible view. It’s better to pitch a tent in the property area rather than being in the house. Not at all worth the money.
