Location: Vergennes, Lake Champlain, Vermont, USA (45 Minutes South of Burlington, VT) View Map
Accommodations: House, 6 Bedrooms + Other (See Description), 4 Baths (Sleeps 11-16)
This beautiful Vermont getaway, called Willmarth Farm, is set on over 100 acres of open fields and wooded trails, sits at the base of Snake Mountain with stunning views of the Adirondacks. The main house was completely renovated, and offers the perfect combination of old-world charm and modern convenience.
3 huge family rooms, including a fully furnished basement with refrigerator, ice maker, sink, pool table and Bose home theater/entertainment system, provide more than enough space for even large groups. The kitchen is a chef's dream, with Viking range, Subzero fridge, two sinks, and acres of counter top, which opens up to a generous seating area with wood burning fireplace and unbelievable views.
Multiple eating areas include a 10 seat dining room and screened in porch with picnic table. Beautiful outdoor seating areas with multiple Adirondack chairs will take your breath away.
1 queen bed, 5 single beds and two double beds provide comfortable sleeping for a minimum of 11 adults. 4 full baths, including one on the first level, easily handle a large group.
Renters will have access to over 100 acres of open fields and wooded trails for hiking, mountain biking, cross country skiing and snow shoeing. Renters will have access to the owner's mountain bikes and snow shoes. For an additional cost, renters may have access to two snow mobiles, which may be used throughout the property.
Wilmarth Farm is within 45 minutes of the area's premier ski areas (Mad River Glen, Sugarbush and the Middlebury College Ski Bowl), 15 minutes from the Middlebury College Golf Course, and 20 minutes from Lake Champlain and Lake Dunmore. Excellent restaurants and shopping can be found in the town of Middlebury and in downtown Vergennes, neither one no more than a 15 minute drive, and a worthwhile day trip to beautiful, historic Burlington which is less than an hour away.
Willmarth Farm is perfect for every occasion, be it a weekend getaway for two, a family vacation, or a trip with a group of friends. Whether it's a good book and a warm fire after a day spent skiing, or a walk through the trails as Vermont's legendary foliage explodes in color around you, this is a one of a kind spot we know you will enjoy.

Why the Owner Chose Vergennes
The sheer beauty of the location, proximity to all the activities around it, and outstanding quality of the work that went into the renovation.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Being able to get away from it all, and having all of the space, whether it's the room in the house, or the land around it, to let our minds relax. The hardest part, always, is leaving!
Owner's Map of Vergennes
Our family purchased the home as 3 of our four kids went to Middlebury College. We still use the house, but not nearly as often as we used to as the kids have all graduated. We live in Ipswich, MA, just north of Boston.
