The house was perfect for us! Such a nice home on a beautiful property! The host was wonderful and responded very quickly to messages. Our family is 4 (plus our little dog, Harley) enjoyed our stay! The sledding hill behind the barn was an added bonus! We had many laughs! A much needed family getaway while our kids were home from college on winter break. We are looking forward to returning!
Sledding fun!

This home and the hosts are fabulous. This was our second stay and we will be back again. The property’s quiet location off a dirt road is exactly what we need to get away from busy life and truly relax. With many places to explore, eat, shop and ski within 20-35 minutes you can be far away and close at the same time. The house has beautiful wooded views, everything you need to cook/bake plus plenty of puzzles, books and games. The wood burning stove is our favorite feature to enjoy evenings with family. The house is easy to find and get in. The internet is very reliable. Most importantly, Mike and Caroline are excellent hosts that truly care about their guests.

We had a great stay at Mike's house. We came up for a long ski weekend with college-aged kids, and everyone loved the house, the wood stove, comfortable beds, thoughtful design, mid-century style furnishing, proximity to skiing, and town. The kitchen is so well-equipped that I could have planned more complex meals. Mike was super easy to communicate with, and all the instructions for the house were clear and easy. Def will come back, would love to do a summer stay and explore the whole property.

We love Vermont and Fall there is our favorite time. This is our third time staying here. This year we stayed for a week and love every minute of it. This home has become our home away from home. We love the peacefulness and tranquility it has to offer. Nestled in between mountains with a beautiful view. It is close to many locations for daily trips to visit such as Burlington, Stowe, and Montpelier and many more places. The home is cozy and well kept/clean and all the amenities you would need for a long stay.The hosts are great to communicate with and respond quickly if needed.It is definitely a place I would recommend if you are thinking about going to this area in Vermont.

Lovely, peaceful property

Perfect stay for when you need to get away. The property is private and quiet, yet just a few minutes to provisions, restaurants, and recreation. I enjoyed reading on the porch surrounded by nature, daily walks on local trails, and cooking local produce and meats in the well appointed kitchen. Will be back!

Peaceful Winter Retreat

This property was an absolute delight. We arrived at night after a strong winter storm left 12 inches of new snow, and were surprised to find a well-plowed driveway, plenty of firewood for the stove, and a stocked kitchen to begin our stay. We wanted to disconnect from the world for two weeks, ski, and enjoy nature. It is rare to find such a comfortable rental property that also allows dogs, and we appreciate that so much. Real beds (so many listings have futons), decorations that make the house feel like a home (rentals are often bleak and bare), and hosts that leave enough information about the home and area to put your mind at ease.

Mike and Caroline were great to work with and rent from but the house overall was not a good experience. It would not be my recommendation to rent this place during the summer. It is too hot and humid in Vermont to be without AC. Also, there is a significant odor of mildew, mold on master bedroom baseboards, and a hornet’s nest on front porch. There were cobwebs throughout. I’m sad to write this review but feel it’s a must to be honest.

Response from VrboOwner on 15 Jul 2025
We are sorry to hear that your experience staying at our home was so disappointing, and that you were surprised to discover we did not have AC. Unfortunately your stay coincided with one of the most humid summers we can remember over the last 17 years we have rented to vacationers. Part of what we enjoy about being in Vermont in the summer is the connection to the outdoors, and closing up all the windows in summer in order to have that amenity is just not on the horizon for us. We have tried to call more attention to that detail so that future guests will not be surprised and disappointed that our house is not air conditioned. Regarding the smell of mildew and mold, and cobwebs, we will certainly address these issues and appreciate the feedback. We have already been in touch with our cleaners. There are one or two old/empty hornets nests on the underside of the porch roof and we sincerely apologize that they caused alarm. We just came from the house and are unaware of any active nests, but will look into that ASAP. Thank you so much for letting us know.

Special Property - Second Summer Visit

This home and property and area are just great. Dirt roads, lush woods, mountains, farms, brooks, rivers, streams. The house is comfortable and cozy. The bedrooms airy. The kitchen well supplied. The hosts are incredibly responsive. Note also that we stayed at this mountainside property during recent heavy rains in VT that flooded many lower-lying nearby areas. We felt safe and secure throughout.

Looking for Tranquility?

The location of the house is surrounded by a beautiful mountain setting with peace and quiet all around. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this home and will definitely stay there again when in Vermont. House is as described in listing. It was also great for our dogs as there is 10 acres of property to let them explore. Piece a heaven for everyone. The owners were great with responding to inquiries. I would definitely recommend staying here if you have the opportunity to explore this area of Vermont.
