About this property
Magical Mountain Hide Away
* 8 bedrooms, including 3 with private baths * Sits on several hundred acres of land, bordered by Mount Mansfield State Forest * Several hiking trails including one to the summit * Elevated, wrap-around covered porch, 2 decks, and a patio * Babbling mountain brook runs next to the house * Spacious barn provides indoor recreation: ping-pong, dancing and dinning
Tucked under Vermont’s tallest mountain, our family home, Squabetty, provides an escape parallel to none. The setting, on the western slope of Mount Mansfield, is breathtaking with the mountain towering behind the house, its flanks to the north and Pleasant Valley to the west. The view of the summit behind the house is unique only to Squabetty. Squabetty’s magical charm appeals to both young and old. The location is the ideal backdrop for all kinds of activities – quiet or active. Some people prefer to read, paint or write; others enjoy swimming in the brook-fed pool, playing in the stream, hiking the myriad of trails, or playing ping pong and listening to music in the spacious barn. This retreat, secluded as it may be, offers amenities of modern living -- a fully equipped kitchen and Wi-Fi internet. In addition to having eight bedrooms, Squabetty has multiple places for alone time as well as places for gathering. When the day is done, enjoy a campfire by the brook or in the lower field when the stars come out.
We offer four wedding packages: Micro – 25 guests, Small - 50 guests, Medium – 100 guests, Large – 150 guests. More than just a venue for your wedding day, Squabetty provides a stress-free atmosphere and allows family and friends to stay on site, making the time together that much more memorable and relaxing. Squabetty allows people to gather together but also provides plenty of places for solitude. All packages include a three-night stay for 18 occupants in the house and full use of the property and buildings. Additional pricing is based on the number pets, campers, and additional nights. Please submit an inquiry.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
