A lovely little getaway

The place is spotless and very well equipped. The host David was very helpful with ideas for dinner etc. And was very thoughtful with items he left for guests in the kitchen. It is a very relaxing setting with a lovely deck for taking in the outdoors and listening to the birds. The location is perfect for an easy drive to either Brandon or Middlebury - both lovely towns. The only drawback is the bed upstairs can only be exited from one side which can be difficult if people need to get up during the night.

Hidden Gem

We were visiting family in nearby Brandon. The space was perfect for our needs. Kitchen was set up with breakfast items and fridge had eggs, bread, milk, water, and basic condiments. The piano was a treat and allowed me to work on some preparation for a concert in the coming week. David is a very attentive host and the story behind the place is fascinating.

WONDERFUL!

My husband and I couldn't have been happier at Camp Tiger Ted. Our host was wonderful in every way, welcoming and responsive to us, clear about caring for his beautiful property, and helpful whenever we reached out. It was a bonus to have the lovely piano, which I took advantage of on several occasions. We visit this area of Vermont often and we certainly will consider staying again, and we've already recommended it to others!Thank you, David, for such a delightful visit.
