We had a wonderful time. The house was perfect…nicely appointed, lots of fun games, a great location and the hot tub after a day of skiing was the best!
The house is beautiful and literally 2 minutes drive from Mt Ellen base lodge. The beds are extremely comfortable and the game room downstairs is an amazing space for kids. Huge TV downstairs where we watched the Super Bowl. Everything is the house is labeled wonderfully. The hot tub on deck was in great shape and heated up fast. The host Samantha was extremely responsive during our stay. Absolute 10 out 10. We’ll be back next year.
Such a great house! Perfect location, wonderful amenities and fabulous host! Couldn’t have asked for a better home for our October weekend! Will definitely be back!

Great house. Great location. Great gameroom!! We loved our stay here. Everything was just as advertised and perfect. Hot tub out by the stream, played a lot of Miss Pac-Man (brought me back to the 80s) got a decent late season snow dumpand just generally really enjoyed our stay. Hosts were in contact and available. Looking forward to our next stay.

Thanks for letting guests know what to expect. Your are welcoming back anytime!
In the winter you can find me skiing with family and in the summer I’ll be roasting s’mores after a hike. As a property manager of Between the Pines, I enjoy providing an excellent short term rental experience in the Mad River Valley as well as working with children in education. Some of my other hobbies include yoga, piano, cooking and volunteering with my local environmental group.
