This house was built by award winning architects and has been featured in a number of lifestyle magazines. With a working barn the house was ideal for horse families or skiing families. If an authentic VT farmhouse with all the modern amenities is your idea of perfection, you have found the right house! Does your family love to congregate in the kitchen? That's why this house was outfitted with top of the line kitchen appliances! If old style wood burning stoves and dutch oven cooking more your thing, we have that too! With a wrap around country style porch and rocking chairs you have your views to choose from! Bring the family and the horses! With miles and miles of trial riding just steps from the front door. This house is going to be a perfect fit for the right kind of family! With a pond perfect for winter ice skating parties and swimming in the summertime. You have found a little slice of VT heaven. What about the views from the 6 person hot tub of Bromley Mountain!
In the dining area there is also an old wood burning stove Glenwood E perfect for baking. We are a cooking family and everything you could possibly 'kneed' is there. The Viking stove is a 6 burner and we have additional cold storage in the basement. In summer months we grow a lot of our own vegetables and we invite you to share in the harvest! Also, in fall months there are more apples than we know what to do with...So please do pick some! We have a good number of ice skates and x-country set ups along with snow shoes. Please help yourself to those but treat them well. We are also a dog family and only ask that you ask us first about the dog you plan on bringing and leave him/her behind if you think they may damage the house. If you are a horse family the barn is ready for you. There is an additional fee if you plan on bringing horses so please contact us to talk about the details on that.
Horses...: For years we raised Morgan horses on Bent Apple Farm. If you have your own horses the barn can be used but prior arrangements must be made with the owners. There is a heated tack room and hay lofts as well as a feed room. We have 10 working stalls a training ring as well as two divided fields. Trial riding is available directly from the property and horses are welcome along the road. There are great rides to the falls just at the end of our road. There is also trailer parking next to the barn.
Ski: If you are a serious about skiing and there happens to be a big snowfall while you are staying at Bent Apple Farm I highly suggest hitting Magic! It is some of the best skiing in the area. It is steep and it can be deep on the right day! You will have the place almost to yourselves and might end up having one of the best days of your life. Bromley is where we all learned to ski...It is the perfect family mountain, It has a bit of everything. The terrain varies from easy to quite challenging on the east side. You can check out the conditions right from the house! Stratton is about the same distance as Bromley and has a considerable amount of glitz. If you are looking for spas, cafes, shopping and well groomed trails or a snowboarding park...Well, Stratton is your spot. If anyone is not feeling the ski bug...well, they can head just over the mountain into Manchester for an afternoon of amazing outlet shopping!
Golf: Stratton is only about 10 minutes away. There is word class golf there...We also have a local golf club just up the road from the house.

This AMAZING home is renovated/modern yet full of character, and beautifully decorated yet kid-friendly (we had 5 little ones) and so much fun (hot tub!). It's set on an expansive property in a gorgeous, and quiet/peaceful, bucolic area that's very close to Stratton, Bromley, and especially Magic Mountain. Really cannot say enough about this place - I've rented lots of vacation homes around the country, and this is by far my favorite!Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, families with young children, pet owners, adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers.

This house is truly one of a kind! A wonderful place to bring a family or group of friends to explore Vermont or simply hang out in the kitchen/living room. Plenty of sleeping area, a gourmet kitchen, and even a fully working Barn if you have horses. I had a wonderful weekend a look forward to coming back again. I would recommend it to all, expect if you are trying to book my weekend....Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, families with young children, pet owners, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

This house is in a great location for exploring Vermont, winter or summer. It is also wonderfully laid out for a family or large group of friends. The kitchen/family room in particular is great for eating, socializing, playing games, reading or just staying warm next to the wood burning stove. The hot tub that faces Bromley Mt. is an added bonus, especially when you can hang out under the stars! The description in the write-up is accurate and the owner is very accommodating and easy to work with.Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with teenagers.
