This was a lovely old home-over 100 years old! It was cozy and quaint, with plenty of room for a family. We were only 2 couples, and we had so much room to spread out. Eleanor and her husband, our hosts, left farm fresh eggs and Keurig pods, which was such a welcome addition to our breakfast.The beds were comfortable, and the porch was perfect. We would highly recommend this VRBO to anyone wanting a homey place to stay.

Vermont in October

We were here for five days on business - the weather was perfect, the accommodations so much more comfortable for us as a group of business travelers than a hotel with room to lounge, eat, and meet. Excellent Mennonite bakery and a pretty good restaurant within two minutes of the house. Very nice.

Comfortable and Convenient

Our stay in Vermont was perfect. The location of the farmhouse was cute, comfortable and cozy and had everything we could possibly need. Super close to the Farmers Market that could provide anything one might want to stay and eat at the house. We chose to have our meals out and the farmhouse was convenient to restaurants in Bennington and the nearby town of Manchester. I’d highly recommend the house again.

Close to town and lots of household amenities

Our host was very nice and responded back quickly to questions during our stay. This house was spacious, comfortable and close to the downtown shops, restaurants and attractions. It had lots of homey touches and was perfect for our college friends reunion. It was pretty warm outside during our visit but the window air conditioning units kept the whole house cool and comfortable. That was wonderful. Would stay here again if given the opportunity.

Comfortable Farmhouse in Bennington

The Farmhouse has five comfortable bedrooms and two renovated bathrooms. The kitchen has been updated and is very well equipped. Although we didn't use the laundry room it was bright and spacious. The parlor was quite comfortable and the décor throughout was country. The house's location was near shopping, hiking trails and sightseeing places. Our host was very congenial and easy to get in touch with.

Quick visit

While visiting a friend in Bennington, several of us stayed at the house. It is very nice. The bedrooms are attractive and the beds are comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked with dishes, etc. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and little side patio. It was brutally hot that weekend and the house A/C units worked great. The Publyk House is right down the road and a nice market is equal distance in opposite direction. If you need a place to stay in Bennington this would be a good choice.

Weekend Getaway

It was nice that everything we needed was there. The beds were comfortable. The house sits on a busy road, which we were not aware of. However, you couldn’t hear the traffic at night. It’s a farm house and you can tell that as soon as you walk in based on the decor. The kitchen appliances were in excellent condition and the bathrooms were updated. It was comfortable for a two night stay.

Short stay

Overall the stay went well. When the first person came to the house we were told it had not been reserved and would not let us in. Another person came and saw out reservation and let us in. There was a dead mouse in one bedroom that we had to put in the garbage. Other than these things the stay was nice.

I think the confusion came when you mistakenly said that a gentlemen from your group stayed in the house "last night". No one stayed there last night because the booking was for the following day not "last night". Living in the country, as most know, there are critters who sneak their way in. The feral cat usually takes care of them and we are also diligent to set traps if they happen to wander in.

Trip to Bennington VT for a wedding

Eleanor was so easy to work with and all her directions were clear. She was quick to answer all my questions and provided ideas of what to do while in Bennington. She also saw that we were bringing kids, and she was quick to offer a pack n play and high chair. She even stopped by to make sure we had everything we needed. The pack n play was a little wobbly, which Eleanor mentioned replacing soon! Beds were comfortable and the bedrooms charming. It was perfect for 6 adults and 2 children. We could have easily fit 2 more adults. Thank you Eleanor!

Perfect for reunion with good friends

We were a party of five who visited Pennington for a class reunion. The house was perfect. Each party had their own room so it was quite private and having a bathroom on each floor really helped. We also use the kitchen to cook dinner one night which worked out quite well. Plenty of plates, silverware and cooking utensils to prepare a very nice meal.
