Ellen and Curtis are friendly, gracious hosts who were welcoming to both us and our 2 hyperactive dogs. The apartment was clean, cozy and a good balance of both private and communal (the apartment is a renovated unit in a "barn" on their property and bumping into Ellen from time to time was nice as she gave us great ideas for things to check out in the area and checked in about how the partner was). Also provided was a smart TV with access to Hulu and Disney and also there was plenty of tea and coffee and banana bread! The property is large with plenty of space for dogs to run around. Would stay here again for sure

Our stay was wonderful! The photos really don’t do this VRBO justice. The kitchen was well stocked. Everything was very clean and new. The location is unbeatable for skiing at Killington. Ellen was extremely communicative and kind. She generously left us some local treats for us to enjoy. Only thing to note: if you’re coming in the winter take the AWD/4WD warning seriously. The whole experience was lovely and we’d love to come back again!

About the host

Hosted by Ellen Quinn

Host profile image
We are retired Vermonters who enjoy a great quality of life here in Vermont. We also enjoy meeting new people. Having grown up in the area, we know our part of the world quite well and we enjoy sharing these gems with our quests.

Why they chose this property

Our property is a wooded 10 acres on a back road, our neighbors have been the same neighbors for the last 50+ years. I guess we are all pretty happy here. It is quiet with lots of wildlife, pristine water, with a beautiful brook for most of the year. You can see the stars at night because we do not have light pollution.

What makes this property unique

We are private, and quiet yet we are close to many fun activities.
