We had a family ski trip and enjoyed our stay at this wonderful, spacious house. Everyone had plenty of room and the house is set up nicely for people to stay either on the main floor, second floor or basement. Plenty of space for all. It was a quick drive to Okemo and close by to the Sugar House for Maple Syrup and Maple Creamies! Communication with host was easy to resolve a couple minor issues. Check in was a breeze. Really nice place. I would imagine it is great in the warmer weather too when you can take advantage of the lake as well. Hopefully, will be back for another ski trip in the future.

Thank you for the wonderful review! I'm glad you had a great weekend and the house worked out for you. Thanks for being great renters and communicating to me some of the minor issues. I hope you come back next year!
House was exactly the way it is described. We had a great family weekend being together talking and playing games. Went skiing for one day as it was overcast and raining, but everyone had a good time without skiing every day. House has a lot of room to spread out and be comfortable.

Beautiful home. Spacious for 3 families on a ski trip to Okemo. Close proximity to the mountain. Having firewood after a long day skiing was a huge plus! Cozy living room to hang out in. Would definitely rent again!

Thanks for the wonderful review! I'm so glad you had a great weekend. Thanks for being terrific renters and would rent again!
We came as a group of 12 and there were adequate space for us. The space was clean and please try of firewood for the fireplace. It is a short walk to the lake where it freezes over in the Winter. The air circulation in the kitchen was good so cooking was not a problem. There is a fire pit outside and a space with rocking chairs outside which is nice even in the winter cold. Maria is a very responsive host and all communication with her were clear. It is also very close (4 min drive) to the Jackson Gore base camp at Okemo.The only thing to add is that there is an owners portion of the property that is attached to the structure so hence this is not a whole property rental (it was never mention as so).
The house was a charming retreat with serene lake access and a delightful deck for relaxation. My family enjoyed a wonderful weekend filled with laughter, and the host’s warm hospitality made our stay truly memorable!

We had 18 people when you included the children. We loved the lake access and using the canoes and kayaks. The house comfortably fit all of us without feeling crowded. It was a quiet neighborhood. We cooked s'mores and dinner over the open fire. It was a great stay!

Thanks for the wonderful review! I'm so glad you all had a great vacation and thanks for renting our home.
This house was perfect for our family. We needed a first floor bedroom and bathroom of our 92 yo mom and the basement was perfect for the kids. Although, the basement was a little musty in July...but dehumidifier did help somewhat. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely return again

Thanks for taking the time to review our house. I'm glad the house was perfect for your family! I'm so sorry about the basement being musty, I will have to purchase a larger dehumidifier. Thanks for the heads up and again I apologize for that. Thanks for renting our home and hope to see you again!
great location and perfect amount of space for kids, grandparents and grandchildren.
Enough private spaces and yet large gathering spaces.
Great outdoors and access to the lake

Thank you for the great review and for being wonderful renters!
This property is conveniently located just a short drive away from Okemo mountain and Ludlow center. This is our second time staying at this property this year and we would absolutely look to stay again next year. Wonderful home for families with teens who like to have their own space. The decor makes this spacious home very warm and cozy.
