The living area with beautiful stone fireplace looking out on the Mountain views is stunning in person! We had a great stay and had everything we needed for cozy nights cooking in and sleeping well, and easy access to nearby slopes. The kids loved the basement and sledding in the backyard! Would definitely return!

Beautiful warm home
House was warm and spacious. Perfect for my family, including young children, to hang out for our first ski/snowboard trip. It was a 15 minute drive to Mt. Snow. We had a few days of rain, but we didn't mind spending the day indoors with a nice warm fireplace. Kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms well stocked with pots, pans, paper goods, and towels. Laundry was also easily accessible. Owner was very responsive whenever we had a question. Excellent communication. Thank you!

Beautiful VT House!
We stayed here a couple of years ago with our kids & grandkids and came back with two couples for a little getaway. House is so clean & well equipped! Great Location! We went sledding in the backyard and hiked Hogback Mountain which was perfect. Hosts are so pleasant and easy to communicate with. We are looking forward to returning again! You will not be disappointed booking this house!

Better than described
We had a wonderful stay. Check in was easy, and we walked into a house that was even better than described. The rooms were comfortable, and the gathering areas were spacious but also cozy for the family. Fire wood was stocked and ready to go, and the fireplace became a centerpiece of our stay. Did lots of cooking for Thanksgiving and the kitchen had everything we needed. The owner was kind to suggest hiking options nearby, but given the snow during our stay we skipped the hiking and hung out by the fire place. We also skipped on using the fire pit because of the snow, but it was there and looked inviting. The children enjoyed playing games in the basement. Lots of space to spread out as needed. View from the deck was pleasing and the area is quiet and serene. Owner was responsive when we had questions. We really just felt at home. I imagine the lake being so close by is a great option for the summer. We would certainly consider coming back. In fact, I think it is quite likely we will.

Perfect!
We rented this property to celebrate our parents 60th wedding anniversary. There were 8 adults: me, my siblings, our spouses and our parents. There was plenty of space, it was the best stocked house we have ever rented. Very clean and comfortable. Views out the back are amazing. We were only here for 2 night - and it rained both nights - so we really were not able to take advantage of the deck or the fire pit. We realized it was the first time that my parents, brother, sister and myself had all slept under the same roof in 30 years! Perfect large table so we could have meals together and play board games and cards. The bathrooms were nice- and as the last person to take a shower in the morning I was happily surprised that there was still plenty of hot water. The town of Wilmington is quaint, had a great lunch in town, a fantastic breakfast at Dot’s, walked through the flea market (much smaller than we pictured). We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Weekend Getaway
From the beginning the owner was great to work with. All the info about the property and the area you could ever need was provided before we arrived. (Info on the house, things to do, directions, etc). I was given direct contact info in case anything was needed and the owner checked in via text on the 2nd day just to see if we needed anything. This house has one of the nicest great rooms / fireplace that I have seen. The pictures are good but it is even better in person. Fully stocked kitchen for all of your cooking needs. The backyard is huge and private. The fire pit and distant views of the hills are exactly what you need to ease your mind. Highly recommend. Will definitely be back.
