We absolutely loved this apartment. It was beautiful, cozy, and perfect location for our many day trips around VT and NH. Kris and Jeff were wonderful host, giving us tips on things to do in the area and even suggested Quebec City versus Montreal. They were correct! We would definitely stay there again if we ever make it back up to Vermont.

Fairbanks Retreat

This is a lovely place to stay. It is well managed and kept up. The beds were very comfortable and the owner left us a sweet greeting that made us feel very welcome. We look forward to staying there again if possible as we have family in the area and found the location just perfect and near downtown St Johnsbury.

Fantastic Place

The apartment was very clean, the beds were extremely comfortable, the coffee bar set up was much appreciated. All four of us were very impressed and would highly recommend. Only thing to keep in mind is stairs are very steep as advertised.

A lovely spot at the edge of town

We really enjoyed our brief stay in St. Johnsbury and this house was a great way to experience it. Excellent, thoughtful touches with snacks, a very organized and helpful guide to the local scene, and a super-straightforward process for arriving and accessing the house.

We were pleased with the property and with interactions with the owner/manager. Plenty of room and with a private, nice second-floor porch. Bit of a steep stairway to the apartment, which was on the second floor.

Overnight stay

We enjoyed our night. The only challenge was the stairs for my parents who are in their late 80’s. It was okay because they only had to navigate them briefly, but it would have been rough if we had been staying longer. Thank you for making it such a pleasant stay!

Visiting family

Second year staying here. We didn’t even research for a different place We were close to my son in lyndonville, able to have dinners and play games on our deck in evenings. Close enough to hiking areas (within walking or driving distance), corn mazes, Sunflower farms, and able to walk into St. Johnsburry for shopping or a meal. Love this place!

Fall visit with friends

The second time I have stayed here. This time with my wife and two children. A perfect apartment for our family to use as a home base for hiking and visiting with friends. We spent the days out and about hiking and exploring and came home to a warm, comfortable, clean spot where we could relax and play games and recharge. Host has created an excellent space!
