Outstanding!
Wonderful location for visiting in summer. Our son loved playing in the river - water levels were low so it was safe to do so. Even though the property is right on a main road, noise wasn’t a problem at all. Maude was a kind and responsive host. I love that there was no extra charge for our dog!

Another great stay
This was our 2nd time staying here and it was even better than the last! There were some new upgrades since the last time we were there which made our stay even more lovely. We spent Christmas there and we had sent our "elves" up ahead of time to for our girls to find when we arrived. Maude was wonderful in helping to get the elves staged for our arrival!

Great location, nice property
We enjoyed our stay. The kids had a really good time playing in the creek behind the property. The cottage is quite nice overall. Fair warning: the mattresses are all foam, which I guess works for a lot of people - the kids were fine in the twin beds - but for me & my husband sharing the big bed, we prefer a much stiffer mattress, so that was a bit of a bummer for us.

Wonderful Chalet!
Really enjoyed staying at this chalet. Maude was a great host. The chalet was a good size with more than enough room for my partner and our furry friend. The location was great and we thoroughly enjoyed our fall visit to Vermont especially the view of the river behind the chalet. I would absolutely recommend staying here.

Beautiful property right on the Brewster River. Everything was as expected. Nice back yard and living room windows give a great view of the river. Across the street from a sugar shack and about a mile from some of the best disc golf in VT.

Family getaway
We were looking to get away from the hustle of the city and this was perfect. Being able to enjoy coffee while watching the rolling steam go by was amazing. While being away from everything there is still a lot to do near by, such as hiking, biking and gondola rides. We will definitely be back and recommend to others.

Great stay at this magical place
This is a great rental property. Perfect size for our family of 4. We'll maintained. Nice and clean. As you can see below, the list of pros far far far outweighs the lost of cons. We'd definitely pick this one again, it was great! Pros: -Location - easy to get to a lot of different things to do in the area -Backyard - this house is sited on a hill that goes down to a rocky stream. A path and play area are mowed, and there's a fire pit with chairs by the stream. There's also a frisbee golf practice area with a couple of frisbees. This stream is magical. It is perfect for making memories with the family -Laundry, there's a washer/dryer combo unit in the bug bedroom -puzzles for downtime -updated interior -comfey twin mattresses -Stocked with basics (coffee, filters, plastic wrap, foil, laundry pods etc) to get you started. Cons: -Queen bed is bouncy and sags to the middle -Road noise -bedrooms are bright w/o room darkening curtains. I have yet to find a vacation rental that has them though.

Perfect spot close to Smuggs, with the Brewster River right behind you
We've now stayed at each of Maude's properties near Smuggs and they are always spotlessly clean and well-maintained. This cabin is right on a busy road but there's an enormous deck and a big backyard with creek access - ignore the front and enjoy the back! The driveway alarmed me at first because we needed to get two cars in there and I wasn't sure how, but it turned out to be pretty easy. It's very wide at the top so two cars can get by each other, and you can turn around and back down as far as you're comfortable, or park along the road. It worked out fine. The second bedroom is small (better for kids than teens or adults) and the bathroom is tiny, but the main bedroom is really nice and spacious, and the living area is bright and open and inviting. Kitchen is well stocked. The deck is almost the size of the house and has a beautiful view. It's a great house to stay in with dogs, we felt very comfortable there with ours and they loved the creek. If you're willing to take off your shoes and splash through the creek, you'll find the Brewster River Trail right on the other side and can walk quite a distance. Or just drive one minute down the road in either direction to Edwards Road, which has great trail options too. We had a mix of family up the road at Smuggs and at this cabin so we were pretty much constantly back and forth, and it worked out beautifully. Thank you Maude!

Perfect Getaway Home
We rented this property in the hopes of exploring a new state and getting some downtime. This chalet was perfect in every way; clean, organized, well maintained and stocked with the essentials. The view and sounds of the river in the back made it feel like a slice of paradise. We were far enough away to relax but close enough to get some hiking and exploring in. Everything our family needed in a home away from home for the week.

NOT ADJACENT TO STOWE IN WINTER
This is what I feel like the title of this property listing should be. I've never been to the Stowe region before, so I was unaware that Rt 108 between Stowe and Smugglers closes in the winter. This property is on the far side, meaning it is nearly a 50-minute ride around from Stowe. To be fair, this information is included in the listing, at the bottom, in the last paragraph. I missed that when I booked it and didn't realize my mistake until it was too late to cancel. In my opinion (and that is all this is), for full transparency, this information should be in bold at the top of the listing. The property was very nice, well-stocked, and enjoyable. The host was attentive but not suffocating. The only issue we had with the house was the horrible water pressure in the shower. It was nearly unusable and a disappointing discovery after our 53-minute ride home after spending the day Skiing at Stowe. One star off for the really poor water pressure. The Rt 108 issue is on me for not reading carefully. Hopefully, future renters new to the area in winter will notice the details I missed!
