This was a beautiful place to spend our ski weekend in Vermont - a quick drive to Magic Mtn and a warm and welcoming and light-filled space to spend the evenings and a lazy Sunday morning. We did come right as the spring thaw was kicking in and the road leading up to the house was quite slippery - recommend a 4WD for the very last part of the drive.

Lovely & memorable weekend at Baby Barn!

Beautiful and well-maintained place in a magical setting. Designed to be photogenic and, more importantly, to be enjoyed. Baby Barn is inviting and cozy, somehow feeling both spacious and intimate. Learning about the architect and how it was built add to its considerable charm. Highly recommend!

Lovely Vermont Barn on Beautiful Land

We had a great time staying at the Baby Barn. It was perfect for our group - 5 adults and 3 young kids. The decor really sets the appropriate VT vibe, and the views are absolutely stunning. It was easy to find and felt very private. I loved being able to open the doors in the bedrooms and smell the morning mountain air while getting ready for my day.

Such a unique property

The Baby Barn was a wonderful stay for me and my family. It was an extraordinarily unique home with no shortage of attention to detail, all with an idyllic backdrop of the majestic Vermont mountain side. The fireplace was warming and welcoming, and the kitchen was a cozy place to create a meal to remember in.

Wonderful ski vacation

The Baby Barn was the perfect home base for our annual family ski vacation. The house is great, well equipped and cozy. I loved the view of magic mountain and saw a torch parade and fireworks from the warmth of the living room on our last night. Thank you so much for sharing this special house wth us. We hope to be back next year.

Great Thanksgiving Stay

Had a lovely stay with a group of friends over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. Well-equipped kitchen. Very cozy living room where we kept a fire burning all weekend long. Beautiful light through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Gorgeous views of the mountains and ski slopes. Peter was super responsive and great to work with during our stay!

Truly exceptional!

We had the most wonderful stay at Baby Barn. It was everything we’d hoped for our big birthday celebrations, from the architecture, the stunning views and cosy ambience. All of it, truly exceptional! It was comfortable, warm, and we also really appreciated the provision of firewood making life much easier not having to lug any from home. We will definitely be back!

great location not so great beds

The property is in a beautiful setting. The house has old dusty taxidermy in it. In general a dusty home which is tough on allergies. We did however enjoy our stay and it was so close to a wedding that we attended at Magic Mountain.

Luxurious peaceful escape

We have been coming to the Baby Barn for years. It is a luxurious retreat in so many ways and provides you with the perfect cozy space to disconnect and relax. The living room is cozy and the kitchen, well equipped. The bedrooms and loft are equally cozy with lots of extra pillows and blankets, should you need them. You truly feel like you've been transported to another place. It's incredibly special and we can't wait to go back.

Jersey visits Vermont !

The Little Barn was unique and truly gave us the Vermont Vibe. We had never been to Vermont and were there for a family wedding. Our accommodations were perfect for what we required. The distance to the venue and everything we wanted to be near was just right !! We were very relaxed and comfortable in the living room and sitting on the back porch admiring the peace and quiet and the beauty !! Thank you !

Londonderry Flood Weekend

Just want to say that if you ever find yourself in a natural disaster, try and find people as amazing as the owner and caretaker of the Baby Barn. They could not have been kinder or more helpful when we found ourselves stranded by the floods in Vt this week. The accommodations were charming, the view spectacular, and the esprit de corp of the locals was exceptional.

Quintessential VT Stay!

This is a quintessential Vermont property! Restored barn with lovely fireplaces, comfortable beds, an INCREDIBLE master shower, and enough space for a family! We had the most incredible time in front of the family room fireplace each morning and evening. Cooked our Thanksgiving feast and everything was available that we needed, even a potato peeler : ) So many books, magazines, puzzles, etc, we didn't even need to bring our own. Londonderry market and liquor store just a 5 mi drive away, 20 mins to Manchester and the shops/outlets. We will definitely stay here again. Thank you Peter for the lovely accommodations, it was a true GEM!

Rustic tranquility

The home, with its picturesque views, peaceful surroundings, and warm rustic charm does not disappoint! We walked into the home and were immediately excited for our stay. The floor to ceiling stone fireplace, surrounded by the wall of windows, created a perfect backdrop to our Christmas celebration. We unfortunately had our time cut short, due to a storm that affected most of the country, and left many in the area without power. The host, Peter, his caretakers, and neighbors, could not have been more helpful, communicative, and down right neighborly. While we weren’t able to enjoy this beautiful home the entire trip, we have some great memories and a really fun story. Don’t hesitate to book this home to make your own Vermont memories!
