Hi Tina, Thanks so much for staying with us. We do hope you enjoyed your stay and thank you for staying with us. I am not quite sure why we only got a 4 star rating as we strive always to have a 5 star rating and this is the case on Airbnb reviews. I am so sorry that for whatever reason you thought our stay was only 4 stars but it is as it is. You are welcome back anytime. All best wishes Bye Sarita

Beautiful little cottage on the edge of town.

Cozy cottage on a quiet street. Just a short distance from everywhere one could want to go. Clean and comfortable. Could use a couple more AC units, summer heat was a little sticky, but not a deal breaker. A wonderful stay! We'd consider Whimsy again!

Great whimsical home

We three grown men were very comfortable for 4 nights here. Everything we needed was available and the host is very gracious and responsive. 15 minutes to Jay Peak. BTW: There is a deli market across the road that we wished we knew about ahead of time.

All Around Great Experience

A couple of friends and I rented this properly for the week to ski at jay peak. Everything was optimal, including perfect ski conditions. We received an incredible amount of snow, and any questions that we had were gladly answered by the owner.

Great Find! Loved it 💝

We absolutely loved our stay in March 2022. The house was quaint, clean, and had everything we needed, very unique. It was an easy drive to Jay Peake to take advantage of the ski mountain AND the owner offered discount passes which saved our group on ticket prices. My mom who does not ski enjoyed herself as well because there were a few stores within walking distance and the roads weren’t too busy. She felt comfortable and safe to explore on her own during the day while we skied. Only 1 mile from the Canadian border!! Had it been open, we would have loved to venture into Canada for a day trip but this was back in March. We hope to return next year!! The only 1 item we wish the cottage had would have been a fireplace 🔥

Thanks so much for the kind words Jennifer and we look forward to welcoming you back next year! We are not able to put in a fireplace at this time but are in the processing of putting in a back patio with a grill and firepit. Great for summer and fall stays and even in winter. Have also done a lot of new landscaping and will be needing to post new photos when complete!
