  • Truly a wonderful place with incredible views. My husband and I stayed there for a week in late July with our senior citizen parents. The house's layout was perfect for a crowd. My dogs spent the days circling the pond and terrorizing the frogs while the rest of us relaxed in the Adirondack chairs and enjoyed the peace and quiet and the occasional glider coming in to land. The outdoor shower was a God-send. The location is great. Morrisville is a three-minute drive and has everything one needs from great restaurants to a large grocery store. Stowe is only a 20-minute drive. I would highly recommend this property.

  • We had a great time at the house over a weekend in July. 5 adults were there for a wedding and our time at the house was very relaxing. The views from the living room and kitchen are amazing. Our dog had a great time on the property and we enjoyed taking the canoe out on the pond. Thanks and I'll recommend your place to our friends.

  • Our party of nine including teenagers and adults stayed at this log cabin from 12/25 to 12/28/2008. Our primary goal was to find a place to stay near Stowe for skiing. We found this place to be conveniently located about 20 minutes from the Stowe ski resort. The bedrooms were roomy and very cozy. Everything was clean and neat. Furniture was in very good condition. The huge fireplace was great for warming the dining area and living room. Cooking and feeding 9 hungry people was made easy by a well equipped kitchen and spacious dining table. We did not use the pond because it was frozen over, but the house is located on a good size piece of land so you feel the privacy. Owners were hospitable and helpful. Wi Fi worked fine for internet connections. TV was fine. I consider this an extremely comfortable and cozy place for family vacations or reunions. I would definitely come here again.

  • We just returned from spending 5 days in this lovely home. We were 5 adults and our 2 dogs, the home was extremely comfortable. There was plenty of room to curl up with a book, or enjoy the exceptional view of the mountain right outside our window. The loft upstairs was great so that we could still be together yet have the option of doing our own thing. The kitchen had a huge table which was wonderful for all of us to sit together. There was plenty of firewood for us to enjoy a fire every day. Although, we typically enjoy the winter sports of skiing and snowshoeing this home was so inviting that we had no problem just staying in. We would highly recommend this home for any family to enjoy either in the winter or summer months.
