Our favorite stay in Vermont!

The location is beautiful and convenient to multiple hiking trails. We loved watching the sunset on the deck and the atmosphere is incredibly relaxing. Johnny and Sara are wonderful, welcoming hosts and we enjoyed getting to know them and seeing their incredibly property. The house has all that you’ll need for a comfortable farmstay! Even on hot days it cools off at night for comfortable sleeping. You won’t regret staying here!

If you want peace and quiet, this is the place. Perfect, friendly hosts always willing to share their experience. Time stood still during our visit. At night, the fireflies and stars were brilliant!We plan to visit again.

Very nice, remote, and peaceful

My husband and I really enjoyed our long weekend stay. Johnny and Sara were great. We were immediately welcomed as we drove in. The guest home had a list of local restaurants and other places to visit, but Johnny was also very helpful recommending restaurants and a grocery store in the area. The house was very clean and although there was no air conditioning, the house was cool at night with the windows open and the fan going. The wraparound deck was an amazing place to watch the sunset and see the cows and sheep on the property. I would recommend this place for anyone looking for some peace and quiet.

Great Stay, Fantastic Host, Fun Ski Trip.

The property was perfect for our family of 4. Comfortable inside and the grounds and view were beautiful. Little town with a great market and restaurants 8 minute away and 40 minutes from 2 great skiing options. Johnny was a great host. He invited us to meet and feed the animals one morning and gave us a tour of his art studio. He could not of been more accommodating and friendly with our family and dog. We hope to go back.

Quiet, peaceful cabin in a lovely location

We enjoyed a lovely Christmas getaway here. Beautiful setting with mountain views and truly spectacular stars at night - there was so little light pollution we could even make out the shape of the milky way! And the silence was absolute - so peaceful! Sara and Johnny were very responsive and helpful hosts!

Such an enjoyable stay!

We really enjoyed our stay here! Sara and Johnny were phenomenal hosts. The house was very clean and comfortable. The area and fall foliage were beautiful! We got to participate in feeding the farm animals in the morning which was so cool to see. Great for any age!

Amazing property with sweeping views

Amazing cozy cottage set in a beautiful agricultural setting. Turn off the paved road, ramble up the mountain and turn into this lovely space with sweeping views and good neighbors (the cows and sheep). Be sure this rural space will help you relax and recharge. Lovely hosts, clean and organized space.

Comfortable and relaxing

Cute cottage in the middle of a working farm. Perfect setting for Vermont. Could use more seating in living room but it was fine for the 2 of us. Overall we enjoyed it and will definitely consider again for next fall.

We had a great stay and Johnny was a gracious host. Beautiful view from the deck and lots of great hiking nearby. Bottle feeding the lambs in the evening was an unexpected bonus. We'd definitely return for another stay in the future.

The home had a lot of charm. Very comfortable beds, clean, on a cool farm and dog friendly. Johnny was extremely helpful with any info we needed. Would def stay there again. It also had everything we needed to cook our meals. We used it to go to MT Snow which was a quick 25 minute ride.

Fabulous spot

We had a great stay at this charming farm cottage. Great location to explore VT, NH, and MA. Sara and Johnny are great hosts and genuinely nice people. They are very attentive without being intrusive. The view from the back deck is beautiful with amazing sunsets. Being greeted by the cows and sheep in the morning was really fun for us.

Peaceful country stay

We enjoyed the cottage so much. We are city folk and the natural setting, sheep and cows included , was a respite from a long few days of driving. Bed was comfortable, and the place was tidy and clean with interesting art work throughout. Also I had left a valuable item there, and our hosts were gracious about sending it back. Highly recommend this property.

Beautiful guest house in excellent location

I had a lovely 2 night stay surrounded by beautiful foliage. The hosts were amazingly gracious, even dropping off an upgraded router for the wifi. The bed was comfortable and there was more than enough space. And, the maple syrup was almost thoughtful! I look forward to returning next year. Thank you for a wonderful weekend!
