Hiking the AT

The town of Kent is very nice. The location of the property was convenient to restaurants, the AT and shops. The backyard area was a plus. The host, Karen, was great! Although there was no TV, we enjoyed our visit.

Perfect spot in Kent

We had a wonderful stay at this squeaky clean and adorable property. It's perfectly situated in the village of Kent and has all the charm of an old house while also being thoughtfully modernized. Easy and lovely walking distance from everything you need, including the grocery store, library, pharmacy, bakeries, restaurants, and shops. Great set up for a week-long stay with children - we loved this little house! (PS to future renters....Keep all trash inside the house as black bears are quite active, even in town as we discovered!)

Perfect Location, Relaxing Retreat

Our stay was great. The location is excellent and within walking distance to all the little shops, restaurants and IGA grocery store. Trails nearby also. Unit was clean and it was nice to have a backyard/patio area and washer dryer. Check in was easy and Karrin checked in with us to make sure we didn't need anything. There is no TV in the unit which made it a bit difficult for my partner to fall asleep since he sleeps with the TV on. We otherwise didn't miss it. There were boardgames, books and plenty to do outside the unit. Would stay here again!

Great little spot in on Main Street. Walk to restaurants, coffee shop grocery store, and small town retail stores. Many state parks, local landmarks, small town greens, and even some really nice museums close by. Highly recommend a long weekend stay In Kent and Karren's little village retreat was just right for the wife and I.
