Great location with easy access to surrounding attractions
We had a wonderful experience at this farmhouse location with easy access to mutiple surrounding attractions. Jessica greeted us with a smile upon arrival. She and her husband, Chad proved to be a most pleasant and accommodating couple. The rental was dutch clean, and there was plenty of amenities on site. The bed was quite comfortable and the property was quiet. We recommend this rental for anyone interested in visiting the area.

Absolutely Perfect!
We had such a great little getaway here! The hosts were very present & so kind! We loved watching the birds with Chad & feeding the chickens and goats with him. It was also so nice to see how much care Jessica put into her home & gardens! The apartment was clean, cozy, and a beautiful place to rest after long days of exploring the gorgeous trails in the area! I would definitely book with Jessica again!

gorgeous property and adorable animals!
The location is absolutely gorgeous and the land behind the apartment was very fun to explore. The animals are indeed quite sweet and the apartment is cozy and lovely. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a quant little getaway--we had a wonderful time. We were in town for the eclipse, and had booked the listing really early. The host seemed a bit salty about us reserving before the price spiked, which was a little uncomfortable, but she was very kind and accommodating. Our only qualm was that we got a bunch of pizza making supplies for the outdoor pizza oven and it wound up being down during our stay.

Chill spot, close to Burlington, cute goats
We had a wonderful NYE weekend. We've done Boston for several years but figured we'd change it up. We saw the Shelborne Lights and the fireworks in Burlington. Spent one day just lounging about watching the antics of the geese and goats. And despite the warnings, the chickens/rooster did not wake us. At our age, it'll take more than a 5lb raptor to wake us!

We didn’t want to stay in a typical hotel to celebrate our anniversary. We loved the farmhouse apt. and especially the farm animals we woke up to. We felt like we were in our own hallmark movie. Very close to Burlington and a nice drive to Stowe. We would definitely recommend this apt.,and the owners were super nice and helpful.Thank you. Dave and Lisa

Burlington anniversary weekend
My husband and I spent a lovely Columbus Day weekend at Riverwatch. Due to the heavy traffic we arrived later than expected and Jessica and Chad were waiting for us on the porch with lights on. Riverwatch is exactly what you see in the pictures. Its quaint and charming. It was fun watching the goats and chickens. The apartment is perfect for 2 people for a weekend getaway or a longer stay. We were taking the Champlain dinner train and Burlington is a quick 20 minute drive. The kitchen and bathroom is stocked with everything you need. My husband loved the vintage Frigidaire! The bed was comfy and the rooms spotless. Its very expensive to stay and eat in Burlington. It rained all day Saturday and we loved having our own place to cook and relax. You cannot get that homey feeling at a hotel. We loved staying here and highly recommend Riverwatch for travelling and touring the Burlington area. Thanks Jessica and Chad for sharing your home. We definitely will stay again!

Incredible Vermont stay!
We LOVED our time here! Peaceful/serene/quiet place. A lovely apartment attached to a century house. Spacious with every needed amenity and nice historic touches as well. There were very friendly goats/ducks/chickens on the property that our daughter LOVED visiting. Pleasant river views across the street. Very communicative hosts who were wonderfully friendly in person. Great libraries of both genuine literature and things to do in the area inside. The only *slight* frustration that wasn’t really an issue given everything to do was the wifi frequently dropped all of our devices. The only other negative thing I could possibly say is we didn’t book nearly enough time here! I truly can’t speak highly enough about this property and especially the hosts and we hope we can return for longer soon.

I stayed at this lovely property, with my dog, for two nights. Jessica and Chad were friendly and helpful. The farm is across the street from the beautiful Lamoille River, and from splendid sunsets. I got a kick out of watching the goats and chickens in the farm pen behind the apartment. I had a cozy, relaxing stay. Everything was just right! I highly recommend it!

Could not wait to leave there!
The apartment was definitely not well cleaned. I took pictures that I will send later. There was tons of dust and spider webs etc. I dont know why we paid a cleaning fee, it clearly was not cleaned well, the bathroom and bedroom were gross. The toilet is up on a high narrow platform and if you are short you have no where to put your feet. It was so uncomfortable The shower is just a stall and the shower head was rusty and water did not even come out of all the holes. The couch was like sitting on a piece of plywood. It was so uncomfortable. I asked for extra bath towels because we were only given two. The owner basically accused me of being a liar and insisted she had checked earlier in the day and there were 5 bath towels. She came over 5 or so minutes later and apologized and said she had forgotten to take them out of the dryer but by then I was pretty ticked. I asked her to reset the router because my phone kept losing internet service and she agreed to do so after saying they had upgraded to the fastest speed or something to that effect. When you walk out of the apartment you have no choice but to walk past their door. There really wasnt much privacy because someone always seemed to be coming and going. There was no door in the bedroom, just a curtain that you couldnt even open cause it wouldnt move on the rod. There were no curtains on the front door nor the windows in the area with the kitchen table. You were basically on display for anyone who was in the yard.

Best Vacation Home Ever!
We loved staying at Jessica and Chads home so much! They were wonderful hosts who were so friendly and welcoming. My toddler was obsessed with the goats, ducks and chickens and we spent many hours in the back petting them and enjoying the wonderful property. The apartment was charming and had everything we needed. We wish we could have stayed longer! It was by far our favorite vacation home we have ever rented!

Great setting, quiet and peaceful. Enjoyed watching the goats every morning from the back sunroom. Very comfortable place. The only concern for remote workers would be the Wi-Fi connection isn’t ideal. Not an issue for us but just an FYI. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect Peaceful Stay
This place was perfect for a weekend trip to VT. It was more peaceful and affordable than staying in Burlington and about a 20 minute drive to downtown. The apartment was the perfect size for two! The water was not suitable for drinking but gallons of drinking water were provided by the host. An AC in the bedroom and fan in the living room kept the unit cool. Jessica and Chad were amazing hosts, as were their goats Daisy, Dahlia and Sunflower! I would definitely stay here again.

Paddlers dream, rural house, close to Burlington
Let me start off by saying we enjoyed our stay in Milton. The location is fantastic, close to Burlington, lots of very interesting restaurants, and we loved the proximity to the water and the ability to use the dock on the Lamoille River to go paddling. Also, prices to stay in the Burlington area are frankly INSANE. Hotels will cost you upwards of $350 / night. So to have a lower cost option for people to visit the area was fantastic. Oh! There’s also Goats! Who doesn’t love goats?! Two areas of potential improvement were the wifi / Television (which ran on a wifi repeater) and having Air conditioning in the apartment. The location is pretty rural and verizon cell coverage was not great, but there was wifi in the apartment. It tended to work some of the time and would occasionally drop. This also made watching TV a little frustrating as the TV in the apartment used an xfinity wifi repeater to bring TV into the space. If you had two phones and the TV on, it seemed to overwhelm the system. The air conditioning was not a huge issue. The apartment is listed as having air conditioning in the unit, but it was not available when we arrived. Thankfully it was on the cooler end, and there was a fan available. Reaching out to the host revealed air conditioning would be something like a window unit and the host did not feel it would be needed for our stay due to the temperature. This is fair, but it would have been better if it were clear the amenity was at host discretion.
