We had a great 3 day ski weekend here. Perfect location five minutes from Mount Snow. The host was very personable and available if any questions arose. The house was great. Lots of space for our family to spread out. Great spot for a family getaway.

Steve.. you are always welcomed back. The summer and fall are just as inviting. Hope to hear from you. Best, Andrew
This home was so perfect for our entire family. It was very spacious and I loved that there were plenty of bathrooms. The view from the family room is spectacular. The house had anything you could ever need and was very comfortable. Mount Snow is a very short drive and so is Wilmington. Andy was very communicative and we look forward to another stay in the future.

I enjoyed talking with Danielle. I only want my Renters to have the best time possible. It seems like her Review accomplished my hope for them. They are always welcomed back.
Andy could not be friendlier or more helpful, and his home could not be warmer or cozier. We had the best time there with my daughter, son-in-law, and their 2 and almost 4 year old. Andy’s place is filled with sun, games, gorgeous plants, and anything you need to cook a meal, and have good times! The location to Mt Snow is also so convenient. We will 100 percent return!
House was tucked away with beautiful views from the deck and yard. Very close to everything you need!

It was a pleasure in having Michelle's group stay at our home. She is the kind of person you always hope to rent to. I hope they will come back again. Sincerely, Andy
The house was very convenient to Mt. Snow and large enough to comfortably house a couple families. Andrew was very helpful and easy to communicate with.
Beautiful view, luxurious feel. check in was easy.

Great Location
This Vermont home is in a great location but still has privacy, quiet and great views. It was convenient to skiing (both downhill and cross country), close to stores, and very comfortable throughout. The warm garage, woodstove, open living area, spacious bedrooms and baths made it a great house to gather with my kids and grandkids.

Andy could not have been a better host. The house feels like a well-lived family home and plenty of space and games. I would go back again for certain. Highly recommend!!

Perfect House at Mt Snow
We have rented this house several times over the last 5 years and think it's a great house. Very well located near Mt Snow entrance in a quiet neighborhood. House is well laid out and has plenty of room. Great for two families. Owners are very accommodating and helpful.
Response from VrboOwner on 6 Mar, 2020
There is nothing better of our appreciation to our Renters than having them come back again and again and again as this is the case here. It has been like that with other past Renters too. Enjoying this great area in Vermont, only 3-4 hours away from both Boston and NYC its important that the feeling of GETTING AWAY is truly fullfilling. We believe our place offers just that.... with great value throughout the year. The extra proof is reflected in these complmentary Reviews.
Quintessential ski house that is perfect for 2 families. Andy was extremely helpful and accessible. The house is clean , close to the mountain and laid out very well for socializing and sleeping. The house is clearly owned by ski lovers and perfect photos to make make ski- lovers out of your children too! We would visit again!”

Property was great and only 6 min drive to the Mt snow clock tower. Was easy to drop people off. The heated garage is really nice if you have little kids so you don’t need to worry about warming the car up

Mount Snow
Great house on a couple miles away from Mt. Snow. The house was well stocked and the beds were great. Mount Snow is literally right down the street and it's very easy to get to. The owners were very responsive to our questions and needs. I would definitely rent this property again.

Hi Bob:
I'm happy you and your family enjoyed yourself. Life is short and the ability to balance these good times are so important. I hope you come back in the future. The summers and fall times here are just as rewarding. Let me know. best, Andy
Booked this house for a ski weekend at nearby Mount Snow. Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate so we didn't end up skiing - which made the comfort of the house all the more important. House was plenty big enough for the eight of us. Large living area, nice wood-burning stove, and lots of old-school games kept us entertained, and we had great family time.
Updated kitchen appliances, fabulous wood burning stove, and great proximity to Mt. Snow make this an excellent place to stay. Andrew was great at communicating and responsive to any issues. One caution - it has much more of a "home" feel than a usual rental. Plenty of room for four couples and 3 kids.

Great family house
This is the fourth or fifth year we've stayed at this property and love it there! We have little kids who don't ski as well as skiers in our group, and they all love the house. There are plenty of games and activities for them, the house is clean and well stocked, and overall, we all had a great time. I believe the owner even has gates to help child proof, although we didn't need it. See you next year!
Response from VrboOwner on 6 Mar, 2020
Looking forward to having your grand children stay here one day. Have a great summer and hope to see you next year. Best, Andy & Lori
Our family of 9 thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Grossman House. Our host, Andrew, was very organized and friendly, suggesting restaurants, slope parking tips and generally making our stay THE BEST! The house has a HAPPY feel with plenty of games and activities for kids, while room for the adults to sit in peace. The bedrooms are well appointed. And with a large group, the number of bathrooms was especially useful. I can't say enough good things about our stay. We look forward to returning to this property either later this summer and/or next winter.

Anyone looking to have Lori as a Guest/Renter will only be quite pleased. I wish her all the happiness going forward and would certainly love to have her bless our home again in Vermont with her presence.
Myself and a few other friends stayed at Andy’s property for the weekend, and it was really the best house we could have chosen. The house is packed with games, movies, stocked kitchen, and has the coziest vibe. The path Andy made down to the stream is awesome and makes it super accessible to explore. Andy went above and beyond for us with communication and flexibility, and we will remember our weekend forever!

Evelyn and her friends were the perfect guests. It gave me renewed hope that even though they were in their early 20's that they could actually be respectful guests. They are always welcomed back. Three cheers to THE MILLENIALS !!!
The house and all of its little touches was truly amazing. Clearly this is a well loved and enjoyed family home (rather than just a rental investment property with some basic ammenities). So many cool examples of art and decorations inside and out. Amazing deck with amazing views. The path down to the brook was great. Proximity to Mount Snow and other shops/restaurants was super easy - yet the the property feels very private and tucked away. The owner is extremely welcoming and hospitable. We all had a great experience!

A very welcoming home
This was THE best place to stay in the gorgeous Mt. Snow area! The house is roomy, homey, comfortable, and located smack dab in the middle of all the fun things you can do in any season. Hiking, biking, skiing, even horseback riding. Nice restaurants nearby, too, along with every convenience. There are lots of things to do inside the house, too, in case the weather puts the kibosh on your outdoor activities.
The landlord is extremely accommodating, generous, and truly interested in helping you enjoy your stay - and you will!

We are always happy when people can enjoy our home and what the surrounding area has to offer. Come on back..... All the best, Andy
I cannot say enough good things about this property & the owner. It was some my first time ever skiing and Andy went out of his way to give advice from rentals to getting to the slopes early with the kids on the magic carpet. The house was a perfect size for several adults and kids. The boys loved the games, pictures and puzzles that are hanging on the walls. The location was perfect- walking distance to restaurants and bars and minutes to Mt Snow. We will definitely look to rent again from Andy- the house was everything we wanted and needed.

Diane and company were truly the perfect Renters to have stay at my home. I am so glad they had a wonderful experience both at the house and on the mountain skiing. I hope they come back and maybe even take in a summer stay as the area offers so much with long sunny days and plenty of outdoor activity options. I'll see ya at Tod's Point by kayak this summer.
Vermont vacation house - great for family or small groups
We had a great time at Andy's property. The house is very comfortable, somewhat rustic, but has everything you would need. The kitchen is extremely well stocked, the property is absolutely beautiful and the wrap around porch is a great place to enjoy the Vermont sunsets. We spent a week here with family and had a fabulous time. Very convenient location right off of 100, but completely quiet. We enjoyed the firepit outside and walks down by the stream. There is lots of great hiking nearby and is right near Mt Snow if you go in the winter. The owner (Andy) was always available for any questions and had great suggestions of fun things to do. If we rent again in this area, we will definitely stay there again.

Nadine and family were the consummate Renter's. Their energy, appreciation and respectfulness was simply five stars. I hope they return. I'll be waiting
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in West Dover. The property is gorgeous, located in a quiet neighborhood and conveniently close to Mt. Snow. The house is homey and so perfect for a family. The rooms are large, the beds are comfortable and the 4 full baths make it really easy to get everyone out the door in the morning. The many games which the owner allows us to use are perfect during those dark winter nights.
The host graciously fills you in on necessary details to make your stay extra easy and comfortable. He makes you feel welcome before you even get there.
Thank you Andy. We so enjoyed staying in your lovely home!

If all my Renters were like Myriam I'd be a very happy camper. I'm so happy they had a great time and hope they return....and even experience the summer or fall up here. All the best for them.
We had an awesome stay at Andy’s house for New Years with our extended family. The space is amazing for multiple families with everyone getting their own bedroom and bathroom space. The living area was also great for our large group. The location is unbeatable- 5 minute drive to mount snow and literally every restaurant within a mile radius. If you read the other reviews, they’re pretty accurate. There are lots and lots of personal items but it made the place feel homey and we enjoyed looking at the various memorabilia in the house. The kids loved having access to so many games and puzzles. Overall, we had a great time!

About the host
Hosted by Andy Grossman
As you can tell by the description above I really love my place. The kids loved it here growing up and still do now that they have their own families. It certainly has the feeling of family here and it can also feel like a 'Big Chill' environment (if you have seen the movie) when a whole bunch of old time friends turned back the clock and still enjoyed one another's company in a genuine neutral setting. I am happy to make your stay an enjoyable one. Before, during or after your stay. Call me anytime. My philosophy is to gain returning customers and as a bonus friendship. Ciao!!!
Why they chose this property
Mt. Snow is a great mountain which offers many things to do throughout the year. Along with new owners attempting to take this mountain to the next level it never loses track as a real Vermont down-to-earth feeling about it... and extends throughout the Deerfield Valley. You won't see fast food chains here nor big box stores, only local retail establishments all in their unique way to show you their wares and make you feel comfortable. You do develop friends in time here. Getting away from the metropolitan area surrounding NYC and head up for a weekend takes us from 3-3:30 hours (180 miles) goes by quite quickly. Sometimes I'll stop along the way to hit a farm stand, North Hampton/Deerfield, MA, and Brattleboro, VT. There are different routes to take on getting up here. It certainly keeps one's interest upbeat. The location is ideal. You can reach the Berkshire's to the south, Stratton & Killington to the north, the Lake George region and Saratoga Springs to the west, and the Connecticut River and Keane, New Hampshire to the east all within 90 minutes.. Walking distance is 7 minutes into town. You have the free Moover's shuttle bus to the mountain or to Wilmington as well.
What makes this property unique
Many varieties of restaurants, pub like spots with plenty of laughter and live music, all kinds of trails to hike, bike, boating and ski, craft fairs, a variety of food fests coupled with two wine and three beer fests...and everything in between can keep you quite busy all within minutes of the house or you can simply sit back and just enjoy what Mother Nature has to offer with our wonderful views, the sounds of a running river and the smell of pine. even vegetating on the comfy sectional watching TV, reading a book or putting together one of our 1,000 piece puzzles, all with the views of the mountain in the background gives you a relaxed feeling inside. I guess they call this an ideal LOCATION!!!
