Our stay at Miner Cottage was wonderful. The home is so historic yet so very comfortable. The history of the home is evident in each room and makes you feel like you are part of that history! The bedrooms are all very comfortable and the home is well stocked with every essential. The home is perfectly located so you could walk or quickly drive to everything in town. Rick, the host, was great to work with and so accommodating to our needs. I look forward to a return trip to Manchester and Miner Cottage.

The property was full of history, character, and was just perfect! We enjoyed a fun autumn weekend celebrating family and friends at our niece's wedding. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect place to stay. Plus, the location was just perfect. Walking distance to most of what was on the bride and grooms scheduled events. Rick was a wonderful, helpful, informative host. He reached out to us after our departure; thought we had left behind a coat and offered to mail it back to us. So kind.

As soon as we entered Miner’s Cottage we felt at home. This historic home offered spacious gathering rooms whether reading, completing a puzzle or relaxing with a glass of wine. Everyone felt comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed their stay. The Christmas tree and other tasteful decorations carried the holiday spirit. The snowfall added to the overall picturesque beauty of our visit.

Perfect stay!

Our family traveled to Manchester to celebrate our son's weekend wedding. Minor Cottage was absolutely perfect for our stay. The house is filled with history and charm, and the location just can't be beat. Clean, spacious, well stocked with all amenities. Everything was tremendous and Rick was so attentive and helpful throughout the booking process. If your plans call for Manchester VT with a large group - this is the place!! We will definitely be back!

Manchester Gem

We cannot say enough positive things about our stay at Miner Cottage. The house is rich with history and exudes character and charm in every room. The check-in process was a sinch, and the house was immaculate upon arrival. It definitely lives much larger than it appears in the pictures. Rick was a pleasure and super on top of all of our correspondence. Our only regret was we did not stay for longer. We will definitely book again!

We stayed here for a wedding in the neighboring town of Dorset. The house was perfect for my wife and me and our two sons and their families. The grounds are spacious and well-maintained and the house had more than enough room for everyone. It was extremely comfortable and exceeded our expectations. It's also centrally located, with many attractions and restaurants within walking distance or a short drive away. The host, Rick, was in touch prior to and during our stay, and provided helpful tips and recommendations for the property. I would definitely recommend booking this property for family gatherings.

Great family trip

Stayed at Miner Cottage this weekend with my family and the house / experience was much better than advertised. The house is beautiful and has so much history. The bedrooms are huge and the downstairs has multiple living rooms to hang out in. Rick was extremely accommodating and answered any questions we had. Highly recommend and would definitely come back!

absolutely perfect Vermont home!

We booked Rick's home for an extended family ski vacation with grandparents and grandkids, and the home completely exceeded our group's expectations. It's a beautiful mix of a classic historic Vermont home with space and amenities to meet a modern family's needs. The first floor offered more than enough space for kids to play and roam, and the bedrooms were clean, spacious and comfortable. Location was ideal- right next to the Equinox and very close to town- perfect for the non-skiers and for picking up food. Rick was one of the most accommodating hosts we've experienced. Incredibly communicative, accommodating, and thoughtful touches throughout the home and process. Thank you! We are definitely hoping to stay again!

Amazing home and location! Great for a group or family gathering!

6 friends stayed for the weekend. The home was just perfect - large enough that we all had ample space, but still felt cozy. Many different living areas made it super comfortable. Location is amazing! Can't wait to go back
