Thanks so much Corey! We were so happy to have your group come stay again this winter. Looking forward to next year as well!
Everyone in our group loved the house and the amenities. It's perfect for large groups and had everything we needed.
We especially liked the hot tub after a day of skiing.

It was our second year back at Good Commons and was fantastic once again. Everything you’d need for a ski house stay and the yoga room is a great space to hang out, stretch after skiing, and ski storage!

I had a large group of friends stay at Good Commons for a weekend ski trip to Killington. The property has so many amenities and is incredibly eclectic. The hosts were very responses and helped us with any concerns we had. I had a large group of 19 people and we had plenty of space. We will definitely be coming back!

Overall the property was exactly as described. Beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was perfect for gathering after a day on the slopes. The yoga room was perfect for the kids to play when they weren't outside in the snow.

Perfect Ski Vacation
The house had more than enough space and very amenity you could think of (hot tub, steam shower, yoga room etc.) It was the perfect location for our groups annual ski trip. We have done various locations and this house was by far the most unique. Nothing better after a long day of skiing than coming back to the comforts of spacious yet cozy home!

Great Family Vacation
This house was perfect for our family vacation! There were 17 adults that stayed here for 3 nights. The space was perfect - plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone to spread out. The large kitchen was definitely our favorite room. Three ovens made cooking a breeze. The house is close to Killington resort where many people went skiing and snowboarding while we were there. If you need a comfortable house for a big group, we highly recommend this property.

About the host
Hosted by Mary Camilleri
I was raised on a dairy farm in rural Illinois and began doing back flips off the stereo when I was two. Before I could read a novel, I was doing full tumbling passes across the floor of a gymnastics class. Soon, I became Jr. National Champion for the United States Acrogymnastics Federation for mixed pairs — think Cirque de Soleil packed with a cast of overactive children. My childhood dream came true when I was cast in the role of Rumpleteazer in Cats on Broadway. After Broadway, I directed and choreographed many shows regionally and off Broadway, and I served as a choreographer for five seasons at Vermont’s famed Weston Playhouse where my love affair with The Green Mountain State began in 1999. Suffice it to say, I was on a pretty short ladder to theatrical success when suddenly everything changed. I had a new inspiration…
In 2003, I awoke from a dream with a powerful sense of urgency.
“You will open a center…”
This mantra was echoing in my head as I rubbed my eyes, and it wasn’t going to fade…
Mid year 2006, I traveled to Vermont to watch my best friend perform at the Weston Playhouse and saw the real estate listing for what would eventually become Good Commons. The walls of this old general store/home hadn’t seen a family live through a Vermont winter in over 25 years! But from first view, I knew it held outstanding potential, and the initial shell of Good Commons satisfied my dream list for what I thought that “center” meant for me.
My childhood dream came true when I made my very first entrance on Broadway in 1998. The dream I was only able discover as an adult comes true around me at Good Commons every day.
There have been many angels that have helped turn this old building into a beautiful home for relaxation, rejuvenation and a rockin’ good time. I am grateful that they have joined me in my dream, and I look forward to meeting you in it as well.
