We had a wonderful stay! The house is huge and comfortably accommodated our group of 6 adults and 5 kids. Every family had their own space in the house, with a bathroom of their own. The main great room was spacious and cozy at the same time! We loved having a fire each night. The location was great, and it was easy to get to the mountain and restaurants. We would love to come back!
Great location close to Stowe, tons of open space for kids to run around, plenty of room in the house to accommodate multiple families. Only thing to note is the amount of ledges/multi level floors which were a little difficult for small children to navigate

We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay and would love to host your family again anytime! And thank you for the feedback on the multiple levels - we got baby gates to make it a bit easier for guests with young children going forward.
The house is tucked away down a small road that is very accessible to downtown Stowe. The property is beautiful featuring a pond in the back. We loved sitting outside in the morning, drinking coffee and watching the geese fly overhead. The rooms were clean, the art was eclectic and overall our stay was fantastic.
We had such a wonderful stay! The house is welcoming and spacious with a lived-in classic Vermont feel. Lots of exposed wood, a beautiful Great Room with a fireplace, cozy couches, and plenty of space for kids and multiple couples to spread out. The bedrooms were comfortable, the 3 bathrooms made things easy, and the kitchen had everything we needed (coffee maker, toaster oven, etc). The location is perfect...secluded, yet close to the Von Trapp Family Lodge, Rec Path, and everything on Mountain Road (we loved Ranch Camp for lunch). The property is stunning with mountain views, a big lawn, and a lovely pond. We can’t wait to come back!

Thank you so much for the kind words; we are so glad you enjoyed your stay and would love to host you again anytime!
We went up to watch the leaves change and celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary knowing that there was no snow. The weather was perfect, the house was extremely clean and rustic so don’t go expecting what is not advertised. This is a no-brainer for large or even two families. Grill out on the back porch, walk the grounds down to the lake, the views are absolutely breathtaking in the morning and at night. The host was extremely responsive and we would love to go back when there’s snow on the ground.
