It was very quiet and peaceful stay. Good space, fully staffed kitchen, special treatment from the host. Reasonable driving distance to Okemo resort. Local (Harris) road is narrow in winter and may be challenging to pass with an oncoming car. We enjoyed this accommodation.

4 days of skiing
The accommodations are roomy, but basic. We were a bit unlucky with a couple of things going out of order on us. But those were addressed rather promptly. Carol and David were genuinely welcoming. David showed us the property with wonderful animals - donkeys. And we enjoyed eggs from the farm’s chickens.
We came with an idea to ski Okemo. The distance was advertised as 7.6mi. In reality it was 14-15mi. Nothing terrible even after a snowfall. Took us 25-30 min.
Lovely clean farm house apartment on second floor, 21 mins away from Okemo.

Peaceful Retreat
The unit is very cozy and comfortable. Owner responded quickly to all inquiries and the check in process was quick and smooth. Location is 15-20 minutes from Ludlow and Claremont. About 30 minutes to Killington or Woodstock. Beautiful area!

Good stay for the weekend
My bf and I stayed here for a holiday weekend to snowboard at Okemo. The Vrbo was clean and had everything we needed including coffee. The smart tv was nice to have. The bed was really soft so we ended up sleeping on the futon one night. It’s up a dirt road up a mountain about 20 mins from okemo. The place is a unit attached to the owners home. They communicated well and we had no problems!
Pleasant stay within a short drive of Okemo. The linens had a heavy dousing from the dryer sheets, but otherwise was perfect.

Wonderful Weekend Getaway
My partner and I spent our weekend at Carol's farm and had an amazing time! The apartment was super clean and cozy, and had everything we needed for a home away from home. They even gifted us a bottle of wine and farm fresh eggs! We spent the weekend cozy in the apartment cooking, reading and watching movies. The surrounding area is also really prettty and nice for a roadtrip adventure. We got to have a personal tour of the farm and hang out with the donkeys, yaks and chickens. Big thanks to Carol and Digi for the excellent stay! 10/10 would highly recommend!

Wonderful stay on a farm
A great functional self contained one bedroom apartment on a working farm. You can commune with the animals and also hang outside in lovely seating areas. I enjoyed my first cup of coffee outside in fresh air with the clucking of chickens and occasional braying of the lovely donkeys.
Also easy to get to and close enough to grocery store and restaurants. Though kitchen fully functional for cooking.
Hope to be able to return.

Great space, close to Okemo
I stayed here for a week of skiing at Okemo. The space was very nice and bigger than anticipated. The location is great - quiet with wooded surroundings but still an easy drive to the mountain. Carol and David were great hosts and quick to respond to any questions. Also a great place for remote work - the wifi was strong and I had no problems with video calls. I would stay here again.
