Glenn was incredibly welcoming as a host, and made sure we had all of the information we needed for the weekend! The house had plenty of space for our wedding guests, and made a great place to gather.
This is a great place to stay. It's secluded, has plenty of common space and bedrooms, and a large firepit for nighttime socializing. It was also immaculate when we arrived. This was our third summertime stay here and we plan to keep coming back.
This place was perfect for a couple of families to go skiing together. Close to the mountain, adequate sleeping and the kitchen is well stocked. The game room downstairs was good for the kids and there is plenty of parking.
We had a wonderful stay at the cabin. It was spacious, clean and private. We loved watching the sunrise each morning and how close it was to Wilmington. We hope to go back with a bigger group next time!
Home and property were beautiful with plenty to do with a big group of friends. We enjoyed the outdoor space for yard games and the home itself offered plenty of space, convenience and comfort.

Glad you enjoyed your stay! Please keep us in mind for any future trips.
Perfect spot for us. Secluded but near town, the reservoir, golf and other VT attractions. House was great; clean, had everything we needed, and was roomy enough for the ten of us. Owner was easy to deal with and responsive to any questions. Would definitely rent here again.
We've been getting together once a year for almost 40 years and since we traded in our tents and canoes for a house and golf clubs, this is the best place we've stayed. The location is great - quiet and secluded - beautiful area in Vermont, close to a quaint town (Wilmington), golf courses and the reservoir for picnicking and floating. Has all the amenities we need and a large fire pit area for nighttime conversation and music. Enjoyed our stay and hope to return.
The house was perfect, everything was clean and easy to operate. It was beautiful weather and we enjoyed time on the deck and then staying cool in the basement with games.
Other than linens (you need to bring your own), house was extremely well stocked. Plenty of comfy couches and chairs to relax in. The basement area has a cool set up with ping pong and shuffleboard tables. Would absolutely love to go back and will recommend to friends next time they are looking for a spot close to Mount Snow.
