Lovely house with fantastic mountain views. Every amenity you could ask for was provided, especially the kitchen which was a cook’s dream. The screened porch was especially delightful - spacious and comfortably furnished, we spent many daytime and evening hours there. The owners were gracious and responsive. Altogether a perfect stay.

We had a wonderful time and would love to return again! Our family with five young children and four adults had plenty of room to spread out. It was very peaceful, the screened in porch overlooking the mountains was especially memorable. My kids loved the pool and hot tub- plenty of floats and goggles available. The kitchen had everything we needed (except for a vegetable peeler!) and the hosts were so thoughtful to even have a "sharing shelf" of basic food supplies if needed. Only thing was the queen guest room upstairs didn't have a window air conditioner unit, but they did have a window fan and that helped. It was especially warm a couple days we were there, but it cooled down quickly enough overnight with the fan. The other rooms facing the sun had an air conditioner, and were plenty cool! Can't wait to go back!

Stayed for 2 nights in January. Beautiful location, beautiful home. Incredible views of Sugarbush. Hot tub is large and heats up quickly. Laura is responsive and available for any issues/questions. The driveway is very steep but with good tires and AWD it’s manageable. Would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for winter or summer getaway

Awesome Ski Escape

Loved our stay! Located about 10 mins to Sugarbush and Mad River Glen. Hot Tub was very nice to use for apres ski. Definitely make sure you have a 4WD car to get up the driveway - it’s very steep and icy in the winter

Beautiful house in a beautiful spot

This house was wonderful. Our party of six had plenty of space to stretch out and also areas to gather. A particular highlight was the Jacuzzi, which was beautiful and easy to access. Another phenomenal amenity is the large fireplace connected to both the dining area and living room. We will definitely be coming back here in the future.

Beautiful Vermont

This is a great house with everything you need to enjoy the Mad River Valley. Waitsfield and Warren are charming towns with little shops, restaurants, and a fantastic farmer’s market. The surrounding area is beautiful. There is plenty to do outdoors for families, or just relax on the porch and take it the view.

Perfect stay for a ski group!

My friends and I throughly enjoyed our stay at the Raphael Road House! It was more than spacious for our group, very clean and had all the supplies and amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The hot tub and fire pit were an added bonus! Laura was accommodating and communicative throughout our stay. We would definitely rent here again and would highly recommend it to anyone else looking for an enjoyable ski getaway!

House and property were exactly as advertised. Access was easy. Although it was clear that this was someones home (2nd home most likely), everything was clearly marked. Everything that you might need kitchen wise, bathroom wise, pool, bedding, games, etc was available. It felt like home. We had a ball and were very relaxed.

Fabulous place for a large family gathering

We loved it! Great location, close to the quaint town of Waitsfield. If you’re lucky with the weather and you have kids- amazing sledding hill! (We did insist the kids wear their ski helmets as it was long and FAST). Kitchen well supplied. The hosts were always helpful and responsive.

Girls Retreat Week

This home is exactly as described, and well maintained and clean. The owners and property manager are attentive and respond almost immediately to questions. We were a group of 7 but plenty of sleeping, dining and lounging options for a larger party. We would definitely choose this property again if staying in this area! Thank you!
