About this property
Cozy home 13 minutes from Killington- child & dog friendly
Updated 2 bedroom home in Mendon, VT. Convenient location as it is six minutes from Pico, ten minutes from Rutland, and thirteen minutes to Killington.
I spent years trying to find child & dog-friendly places to stay and be able go to the mountains to ski/snowboard. Now I’m sharing my child and dog-friendly place with others so they can vacation with their beloved dogs and children. (While I like cats, my husband is deathly allergic so we cannot have them in the home.)
The house has everything you'd need for a comfortable mountain holiday, including dog bowls if you forgot yours and toys for your children to play with in case you can't pack any. If your dog is destructive, slobbers, or sheds, we ask that you crate the dog when you leave the home to keep them off the furniture. Please, do not let your pets on the couch.
We also recommend snow tires, or 4-wheel drive as there is a small hill to drive up to get to the house. Finally, be careful as it is on the main highway.

Why they chose this property
This property is great if you have children and/or dogs that you'd like to bring with you on your mountain holiday. I was tired of always having to pack so much stuff just to go away for the weekend but here, we have toys for your kids to play with! We also have our children's high chair for you if you need so let us know ahead of time if you'll need that for your stay. The house is on a busy road so we ask that you leash your dog outside at all times (we leash ours.) But if you know your dog will chew on furniture, slobber frequently, shed often, we ask that you bring a crate for your animal when you leave the house. We do not want them sleeping on the beds or the couch as it is difficult to clean properly for future guests.
What makes this property unique
The location is convenient, especially if you're a New Yorker like myself. You would pass this house on your way up to the mountain and you'd pass it on your way home.
