Very clean, well-maintained and equipped with everything. Window AC units kept the whole house cool. Loved the place and would stay there again. Just a warning for light sleepers: there is some road noise.

Exactly what you need

Our stay was brief since it was for a wedding, but it was the perfect spot since it was only a few minutes from the venue. Vernon is a small place, so having something like this place available was cost effective, convenient, and pretty cozy!

Christmas Stay

We were celebrating Christmas with my family and needed an extra location to stay. The house was cozy and there was even a tree there to greet us. It was the first time our children spent Christmas away from out house, so the tree was appreciated!

Beautiful home in Vernon

We chose this house for our stay following a wedding at the Hayloft, and could not have been happier with the choice. The house is beautiful, very well maintained and the owner Michael was fantastic to work with. We would absolutely choose this property again, and recommend to anyone staying in the area. Cheers

Hamilton College Family Weekend getaway

Absolutely loved this home! Very quiet and serene despite being on a busier road. Short 10 minute drive to Hamilton and one of the cleanest places I have stayed. Adorable little home with everything you could ask for. Owner even left us a welcome note and there were mints in a bowl when we walked in!

Great Place to Stay!

For a house being on a 2 lane road, it was surprisingly quiet!! The house was clean and lovely. The beds very comfortable and also clean!! I loved having my morning coffee on the back porch and watching the rabbits and woodchuck. The host was great and easy to get in touch with. I would definitely stay here again
