Just a wonderful stay

Beautiful house was so comfortable for our family ski trip. Well stocked, immaculately clean, and snow removal was done so promptly! The owners were so responsive. Loved it here!

Nice house - limited access to farm

House is as pictured and the kitchen is well appointed for cooking. We also stayed at the house during a heat wave and the downstairs bedrooms stay cool despite no AC. One thing to note, the description mentions access to the farm and nearby swimming holes. This appears to only be true if the guests renting the house nearest to the pond do not mind. We were informed by rather rude man from CT that the pond was not ‘communal’ area. Why walking our grandchildren around the pond to look a frogs was so offensive to him, I am not sure. But just to point out your full access to the farm is dependent on the other renters. We played some in the river below the house without any issues.

The Sled is Wonderful!

The Sled provided our family with all the comforts of home. Family dinners were easy to make and enjoy with the large kitchen setting. Pots, pans, and utensils were provided. It has one huge tile shower that is an exhibit to see. Expertly ventilated and very well designed. There is an abundance of towels and wash clothes. Laundry and an iron are available. Generally I wake up sore when I sleep in a different bed, but not on this trip. The comforters and sheets were very nice as well. The Sled has plenty of windows for fresh air or views. A very nice Weber grill and a cozy vibe all around, wait till you see the hardwood floors! We had a wonderful trip thanks to the comforts provided by the Sled.

Great stay during Rooted Vermont bike race

We throughly enjoyed our stay at The Shed on Sarah and Bert's property. It was the perfect set up for an outdoor adventure vacation. Such an easy floorpan for sharing the space. The house is pristinely clean and maintained, all furnishings and beds immaculate and comfortable. The kitchen is beautiful and well appointed. We especially liked the separate shower room ... brilliant for allowing everyone to be getting ready expediently. And great location! The race course was just down the road from The Shed! Thank you Sarah and Bert for sharing your slice of heaven in Vermont. We hope to come back and enjoy the beauty of Richmond again.

Absolutely wonderful property

We loved our stay at this rental and didn't want to leave because it was just so lovely inside and outside on the grounds. The hosts were great with their communication, the house was stocked and comfortable and the quiet, mountain space was just what we were looking for.

Lovely setting and home

We'd definitely stay at the sled again: the location was perfect for biking, hiking, swimming and exploring nearby towns. The home was very clean and modern and the hosts were welcoming.

Year 2

We had a great time at the Sled. The house is beautiful and has everything you could need. Coming home and starting a fire after a day of skiing made the house feel cozy. This was the second winter we stayed and its a great spot for skiing, snowshoeing or hiking. We love the proximity to Burlington and to Waterbury too. Its a great spot to use as a home base for all the fun stuff Vermont has to offer. Thanks Sarah!
