We had a large group for our stay and there was plenty of room for everyone. The place was very clean. It was definitely a plus having the general store across the street.

My friends and I just got back from a weekend stay at the Little Brook house and it was great. The house was big and very clean and slept the 12 of us easily. Lots of things to do in the summer. The front yard was big and the owners had a volleyball net, badminton, and even a horseshoe pit. The back deck was nice and secluded with a running brook going right through the yard, and the hot tub was great even in the warm weather. The house is minutes away from the lake and there is ton to do in the area. I plan a weekend trip every year and these owners were a pleasure to deal with. I definately recommend the house to anyone going up to the area in any season.
Recommended for:Adventure seekers, girls getaway, families with young children, families with teenagers.

I just wanted to let you know my family had a wonderful week at the Little Brook House. There was room for all of us. We enjoyed the Brook but all the rain we have had this Spring and Summer has made it a raging brook!! The man at the Tyson Village Store said it’s usually a calm stream at this time of year!We had one full day and night of torrential rains and an afternoon and night. We got to sit out and play in the yard with our grandchildren.We used your list of 20+ favorite things to do also. We had stayed in the area the previous 2 years and had already done some but found quite a few new suggestions. We actually saw a moose at the crossing!We will probably head back to the Echo Lake area next year and hope your home is available for us.

Thank you very much for sharing your Home with us. My mother and grandmother and I had a wonderful time. We loved the Brook out back and the Jacuzzi( which we didn't think we would even use!). Vermont sure is beautiful and I enjoyed my morning runs aided by your suggestions in that very helpful info book! Thanks Again, Lisa

Just wanted to say thank you, we had a great weekend at the Little Brook House. The January thaw didn't bring the best ski conditions, but it did cause the brook behind the house to be running full speed, which was just spectacular while sitting in the hot tub. We may come calling again next season!

I just wanted to say "thank you" from our group! We had a fantastic time at the little brook house and truly loved every minute of our stay. Everyone skiied on Saturday when we were lucky enough to get a little snow, and we spent the rest of the weekend just playing games, watching football, and enjoying some of the great titles from your movie collection (Silverado was a real hit!). It was also very nice to be able to sit back and relax in the hot tub on the back deck. We made great use of the kitchen, although I think we ate waaaay too much, and we had a fire roaring the entire time we were there. All in all, we were more than pleased and are already talking about possibly returning next year.

We had a FANTASTIC time at Brook House this past weekend!!! The house was just as described. We all had a great time hiking up along the brook, the waterfalls were so beautiful. The weather was a perfect 70 degrees everyday, so we were able to sit out on the back deck and enjoy listening to the brook, and sat out front just to hang out. Thanks too for the list of things to do, that was a great idea. We had such a great time that we are thinking of coming up during the summer!! I'm leaving feedback on your site to let everyone know what a great place Brook House is to stay at. Thanks again, Sincerely, Gail

We had a wonderful time and loved the house. It is great for family gatherings. Fourteen of us were able to eat together in the expansive kitchen. Each family took a different night and cooked for the rest of us. It was great fun. The divided living room gives a place for different activities but still be together. We hiked up the creek and saw the beautiful waterfalls and lots of mushrooms. Thank you so much for sharing such a wonderful place with others. Sincerely, Marilyn
