The home comfortably accommodates six guests in three upstairs bedrooms. Two separate living areas provide plenty of room for families and friends to gather together or enjoy a little quiet time after a day of adventure. Start your morning with coffee in the cozy breakfast nook, share meals around the farmhouse table, curl up with a favorite book, or spend the evening enjoying movies, board games, and conversation.
Stowe Mountain Resort is just a 12-minute drive away, and during ski season the Mountain Road shuttle stops only a short walk from the house, making it easy to enjoy Vermont's premier skiing without worrying about parking.
We know many guests consider their dog part of the family. One well-behaved dog is welcome, and additional dogs may be considered with advance approval. Just steps away you'll find wonderful places to explore together, including Stowe's Recreation Path and the nearby Quiet Path.
No matter the season, Historic Maple Street Dairy is the perfect home base for experiencing everything Stowe has to offer—from winter skiing and cozy evenings around the dinner table, to summer concerts, mountain biking, hiking, farmers markets, and spectacular autumn foliage. Rich in history, full of character, and perfectly located, it offers the authentic Vermont experience that keeps guests returning year after year.

Cozy place, walking distance to Stowe shops and restaurants. Host are friendly and very helpful. Had a great stay over Christmas and were lucky with a lot of snow. Definitely will recommend!
Karen and Dan are superb hosts! We truly loved staying in their historic 1855 farmhouse. The house was close enough to walk into the historic center of Stowe and enjoy all the amenities of Stowe without the hassle of finding parking. We highly recommend this beautiful property!
What a charming historic home with all the comforts of home. We loved every minute and especially enjoyed the short walk to town and the bike trail. The hosts were exceptionally kind and lovely to chat with. Highly recommend staying here!

Stowe!
A lovely home. A truly 5 minute walk to the village amenities and 10-15 min picturesque drive or shuttle to the slopes. House is warm and welcoming and had everything we needed.
We had a great time-thank you Karen-loved all your lights and decorations too!

Cosy Cottage
Quaint and cosy cottage a very short walk to the main street in Stowe. Our multi-generational family group had a wonderful stay at this cottage for a week of skiing. The location is fabulous and the house is pretty as a picture. Stacks of original details and the cottage is styled well. Loads of extra linens, towels and thoughtful comforting touches throughout the house. The only negative was the fridge and freezer wasn't working during our stay and given it was a holiday weekend the owners couldn't organize a replacement - however they did what they could and shouted us a meal at a local diner as compensation (thanks!). Karen was a very attentive owner and available to assist whenever we had a question. Some kitchen items were a little tired (pots, glasses etc) so if you are culinary focused bring your favorite utensils along and if you have a large group you may need to bring some extra forks/spoons etc. All in all a wonderful stay!

Hi, it was great having you all stay at the Maple Street Dairy. Thanks for the kind review. We really are glad you liked the decor and amenities. Sorry fridge was not working properly, we have now replaced it. Good idea about updating kitchen wear. Hope you'll be back!
We loved our stay at this gorgeous property- the home was wonderful and you couldn’t ask for a better location just a 5 minute walk to town. We had the most perfect fall stay!
What a wonderful historic property that is walkable to downtown Stowe Center. Plenty of space for a family; this property was neat, clean and the proprietors are responsive and conscientious. We would definitely rent this property again!
Wonderful home right in the Heart of Stowe Village
Great experience in Stowe home was very clean and exactly how the owners describe their property. Location in Stowe Village short 7 mile drive to the top of the mountain. Karen and Dan were very nice and made the whole weekend great for us. Thanks Again for sharing your wonderful home.
The "Maple Street Dairy" house is absolutely fantastic. The house is large, open, with plenty of space, and unusually, the beds and furnishings were first class. After a day of snowboarding (with the shuttle to the mountain only about a 5 minute walk), we loved that we could rest up at the house and then walk to Stowe village for restaurants and bars. We will return to this place.
Karen's house is wonderful - beautiful, just as described, and in a great location, walking distance from Stowe village. Karen was very helpful during our stay, the check-in process was easy and we would highly recommend this house.
This home is in a great location. Close to all the shops, trails and restaurants that Stowe has to offer. Easy walking to almost everything. There was a very minor mix up with keys but Karen fixed it immediately. And it gave her a chance to fill us in with the weekend events happening in Stowe. A win win! We are already planning our next girls weekend back.
We had a great stay; went up as 2 young families and had plenty of space and amenities in a charming antique farmhouse so close to the town center, shopping and bike path.

Great Family Vacation in a lovely home
The Maple Street Dairy was perfect for a magical stay in Stowe. Short walk into the village for easy access to shops and restaurants. The mountain shuttle was our transportation up to the mountain for great skiing and Tap 25 in the village was our Apres Ski spot. Karen and Dan were very accommodating and quick to respond to any questions we had. Our dogs adjusted well and loved the open space area not far from the home where dogs could be off leash. The home had more than enough room for our extended family. It's a must stay and we hope to return in the future.

About the host
Hosted by Karen Akins
Welcome! We're Karen and Dan Akins, and we're delighted to share Historic Maple Street Dairy with you.
We live on the property in the beautifully renovated dairy barn, giving guests the perfect balance of privacy while being nearby should you need recommendations or assistance during your stay.
After meeting while studying at the London School of Economics, we eventually made Vermont our home in 2002 to raise our family. We've fallen in love with everything that makes Stowe special—from its vibrant village, scenic trails, and world-class outdoor recreation to the welcoming community that surrounds it. Now that we're empty nesters, we enjoy sharing this remarkable corner of Vermont with visitors from around the world.
Historic Maple Street Dairy has been lovingly restored to preserve its rich history while providing the comfort and warmth of a true Vermont farmhouse. We hope you'll feel at home here and create wonderful memories during your stay.
We're always happy to share our favorite restaurants, hiking trails, ski tips, local events, and hidden gems to help you experience Stowe like a local.
Why they chose this property
We chose this neighborhood because it offers one of the best combinations in Stowe: the charm and convenience of village life with immediate access to the outdoors.
In winter, the location becomes even more special. Guests can access the snowmobile trail directly from the property, making it easy to enjoy another side of Vermont without having to load up the car.
It is a rare place where you can spend the morning exploring the woods, walk into the village for lunch, and return home to the peaceful atmosphere of a historic Vermont neighborhood.
What makes this property unique
The Historic Maple Street Dairy offers something that is surprisingly rare in Stowe: the opportunity to enjoy a true Vermont village experience while staying in a beautifully restored historic farmhouse.
It's this combination of history, walkability, flexibility, and authentic Vermont character that makes Historic Maple Street Dairy such a memorable place to stay.
