Great place. Beautiful views of the mountain. We loved the pool table. Kitchen is fully-equipped. Cozy bedrooms. Stairs to loft are very narrow and steep. Also be mindful there is dirt road to travel on to get to the house. We would stay here again.

Perfect Mad River Valley location

We really enjoyed our stay. Good for everyone; kids and parents alike. As presented and no surprises. Jen was a great host with just the right amount of touch, available if needed (we never did), but not overly communicative.

Lovely retreat in the hills of Vermont

We had a wonderful stay over the July 4 weekend- dodged some rain and saw some sunshine- the view of hills are beautiful either way from the living area of this beautiful carriage house. Enjoyed some nice walks in Waitsfield, visited Stowe, Waterbury and also Burlington and Montpelier. Rainy evenings spent playing pool in the living space, cooking together in the well appointed kitchen area or relaxing with a book in the comfortable sleeping areas. The stairs to the second sleeping area in the loft are a bit steep, but we navigated them twice a day with so much to do downstairs! Thanks for hosting us.

Hospitality and charm to the max!

Our group was an extended family reunion of sorts, including three adult siblings, each from different NE states, and one elementary aged child. We booked the carriage house for a fun weekend away to experience the 2024 Eclipse in the path of totality. The carriage house ended up being perfect for our needs. Cozy and charming, with great views. The well-stocked kitchen made mealtime a breeze, and the pool table was a huge bonus for our motley crew of kids-at-heart. Will definitely be back the next time we are in the Mad River area. Jen went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable during our stay, even inviting us to view the eclipse from the deck of the main house after our check out that morning, which made for a truly unforgettable experience. Thanks again!

This property is really gorgeous and was perfect for a relaxing weekend away for me, my husband, and my son! The pool table was so fun and the setting was beautiful. What I was most impressed by was the responsiveness and communication from the host. In my very overworked brain, I showed up a day earlier than I was supposed to, but the host was so gracious and got me into the property a day early! Also, when in Waitsfield, go get donuts from Twisted Halo!

The Mad River Valley is one of the nicest places to be in the whole country, and you'd be hard-pressed to find a better place to stay in Waitsfield than right here. It's exactly as the listing says, and our stay couldn't have been any easier or more convenient. 10/10 would stay again.
