About Polli or Kyle
Hi! My husband, Kyle, and I love being in Vermont with our 2 children. We travel a lot and really make it a priority to show our kids the world. We decided to welcome guests to our home to share our corner of Vermont with other people. We also love when people feel at home and welcome in our space. Taking care of the details in a home that make people feel special and pampered with life's little luxuries...bring us great satisfaction.
We look forward to your visit.
Polli or Kyle purchased this farmhouse in 2011
Why Polli or Kyle chose Marlboro
Vermont is wonderful each season of the year. The brisk and crisp autumn air combined with stunning views of fall foilage make this time of year a traveller's favorite. Make sure to visit a local farm for apple picking, pumpkins, homemade pie and cider.
Winter brings skiing, sledding, and ice skating fun. Come enjoy having a fire in the firepit and toast marshmallows. Then warm up in the sauna. yum!
Spring shows all the fresh greens that the surrounding hills offer. Big skies. bright stars. nice walks. come and enjoy welcoming the new season.
Summer is time for the Marlboro Music Festival. weddings. Strolling of the Heiffers in Brattleboro. art festivals. swimming. country fairs. river streams. hikes in the mountains. summer at its best!
What makes this farmhouse unique
This home has good bones: lots of history and great spaces. The pool room used to be an old barn which was moved and joined years earlier and now makes a wonderful cozy room for playing games, playing darts or pool and gathering around the wood stove. We always offer our guests a welcome gift--- bottle of wine or fresh veggies from our garden or fresh eggs! Some nice treat will await you.
Our home is spacious and comfortable. When you wake up in the morning- you can appreciate the sound of silence which surrounds you. You can enjoy complete privacy in the middle of the mountains of Vermont.
The kitchen has updated appliances and great places for cooking or pouring a drink and cheering on the cook. The dining room and living room are terrific spots to get together.
The house always has a full array of spices, oils, and other cooking necessitites. Plenty of linens and towels and other things that you might have forgotten to pack. It truly feels like a home.
About disconnecting-- just want you to know, that we have TV's for DVD viewing-No cable. We have internet- wifi throughout the house. We also have ROKU for television viewing of netflix and amazon prime.

Cozy, comfortable home!
Polli and Kyle were wonderful hosts, and we enjoyed our weekend in their lovely home. Hope to visit again next year!
new years eve weekend
Enjoyed the location of this home and the layout. With frigid weather though it is a challenge.it has a wood burning stove as a main source of heat along with 2 propane stoves and spotty working baseboard heating . we had issues with one of the propane heaters , it shut off in the living room .You also have to make sure you keep the wood burning stove going ,that means at 4 or 5 o'clock am. You can feel the heat drop.Its just a lot of work for a holiday weekend.Being it was New Years we had adult 50 year old friends who were renting in the area come for dinner 5 people in total along with our 8 family members.The owner upon hearing this ridiculed us as if we were children.As for the kitchen , bathroom,pool table and its amenities it was fully stocked.
Comfortable and a beautiful home
The pictures don't do it justice, Polli and Kyle's home was more than we could have hoped for! It was spacious, beautifully decorated, and very comfortable. It was close to the slopes and the sauna was very nice after a long day skiing. Polli and Kyle were very accommodating, they were thoughtful and had all of the amenities that you could ever need. My friends and I definitely want to come back and stay here again!
Comfortable and inviting stay
We just returned from a great stay at Polli's charming farm house. Our young kids loved the games and the family room with pool table. We had everything we needed to make some nice meals and enjoyed the various fireplaces and wood burning stoves. We found the house very clean and comfortable and an easy 15 minute trip to Mt. Snow. Polli was very responsive leading up to the trip, with lots of helpful information. We would definitely love to stay again during another ski trip!
This lovely is a property
I have stayed at this property 3 times. It is perfect. The house is charmingly decorated and has everything needed for a complete vacation. The kitchen is very well equipped. The view from the house is typical gorgeous Vermont. You can enjoy the pool table, the sauna, the screened porch or just sitting outside. This property is very well maintained.
Wonderful place and great hosts!!!
We had a great time at this farm house and the hosts were wonderful. I highly recommend staying here. Polli and Kyle were great hosts...they answered all my questions and even sent back some things I had forgotten to pack when leaving. 4 star in my book!
Map
There is a small but upscale market at the bottom of our hill for provisions, beer, wine and deli items. Route 100- one of the most romantic and scenic drives in the NorthEast- is located about 3 miles from our home.
Brattleboro is about 15 minutes away and Wilmington and Mount Snow is about 8-9 miles away. Close enough to get to everything but enough distance to get away for peace and privacy.
