Good Potential
Positives: Location, very comfortable beds, short walk from car to door. Negatives: Could not use water to cook/drink(fine print of contract did say this), could not use wood stove, TV so old you can't log in to netflix or any other app to stream, too many thermostats to adjust, hodge podge of cooking pots and utensils, dinning furniture structurally questionable, very drafty. My negatives are just points of honesty. That said, maybe this place is in a rehab transition. The pictures were really filtered well in a positive bright light. WE DID ENJOY ARE STAY! However, with all those negatives it should have been reflected in the price. Having run a rental myself I know the effort and investment it takes and I think the owners getting there.

Nice family getaway near Mad River Valley
We were looking to explore Vermont, something close to Waterbury, Burlington without the pricetag. What we found was an idyllic community in the Mad River Valley. There are many great places to eat, shop and play within a short drive. Great hikes and sights, too. The accomodations were just right. The condo was set amongst the trees along a running stream. The rooms were comfortable without feeling stuffy. On the second floor, the kids had bunk beds, the other bedroom, a queen. Downstairs, a clean quaint kitchen just off the main open living room. We had planned to use the pool, but it seemed really out of the way. Still had a great time.
