8 Day Stay

We enjoyed our stay. The house is older and has a lot of quirks, but pleasant. We would recommend that the owner remove a few pieces of furniture to open the home up more. The location was great, and we were able to tour all around central Vermont

Very great hosts!

Even though there was a mix up on the reservations, (on VRBO's part), Dave stepped up and took care of the issue so that everything else went off without a hitch. Wonderful place, that had everything we needed. We would definitely recommend this place and hope to return in the future.

Review of Property

Dave and Margo's place was a great spot for a group ski trip! Plenty of space and great appliances for cooking large meals. Only thing to mention is if you're going during mud season definitely make sure you have AWD or 4WD. Would definitely stay at this property again!

Fall Folliage Tour

Location was great for us to enjoy Smugglers Notch, Stowe, and Woodstock on different days. Farm House is tucked away from the busy roads and has a lovely back deck overlooking a large back meadow with a wide creek. It is rustic as advertised and stairs to 2nd floor could be tricky for people with knee problems. but we enjoyed its character and felt it was a good value as well. Would stay again if in the area with family.

Old Rustic Farmhouse in the woods

The house sits on top of a sledding hill next to a brook and offers a nice view. Sugarbush is about a 15-20 minute ride. The house is rustic and unique and has antique furniture, kickknacks, and houseplants. It has a spa and hot tub. There are three bedrooms, one on the first floor, two on the second floor. The upstairs bathroom is a "walk through" to the bedroom and has a twin bed in it as well. There are three baths, two with showers, and one with a tub. One bathroom is in the basement and is shared with a basement apartment that the owners use when they come to stay in the apartment some days during the week. The kitchen includes basic cookware, dishwasher, microwave, refrigerator, and basic necessities. There is laundry in the basement. The owners are very communicative.

Comfortable, homey farmhouse with great owners

We loved our holiday stay here--it was a wonderful, warm country-style place lovingly decorated for the holidays, inside and out, that felt a lot like coming home. Really quite well equipped for a vrbo with tons of comfortable seating and beds. Not everything worked perfectly, but Dave and Margo worked assiduously to make our stay very happy. Both were conscientious communicators and incredibly friendly. And the location was perfect for a snowy Vermont Christmas, with great nearby towns, good XC skiing, and affordable old-time downhill at Mad River Glen. We'd go back without hesitation.

Quiet retreat

Dave and Margo were very helpful, and sweet. The place itself is in the perfect spot on a quiet private road. The back deck was beautiful to sit on early in the morning and watch the sun rise. We used the hot tub every night after a long day of hiking, it was so wonderful. There’s a line out back you can hook your dog up to run around, and the sauna was also super nice to use, once you figure out how to use it, which Dave and Margo were more than happy to help. I would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful stay!

I rented the house for the weekend of my son's wedding in Waitsfield. It was great for a bunch of relatives to stay. Wonderful antique house and furnishings. Great deck with a beautiful view. Hosts were great with communication and flexible with arrival and departure. Did not use the spa, but it is very impressive. Would be great for after skiing.

Thanksgiving Getaway

My daughter was not able to travel home for Thanksgiving this year so we decided to celebrate in Vermont. The house is just as described, well equipped (we prepared Thanksgiving dinner there), and comfortable. We were only 6 people but the house would easily accommodate 10. We hoped to get at least one day of skiing in at Sugarbush (which is only 20 minutes away,) and were thrilled that the mountain had some trails open for the days we were there. Our hosts Dave and Margo are very communicative and answered any questions I had immediately. I would definitely stay at this property again and may return later in the winter for another family ski trip.

This place is just set in the most spectacular area!! The views are breathtaking, and it’s not far from places we wanted to visit during our stay! Hot tub/sauna was a bonus, and sitting out on the porch swing was our favorite! Nice and relaxing, loved our stay!

Classic Mad River Valley experience.

The property is beautiful and secluded. The view from the back porch is enough to sell the spot. Great old furniture and decorations, but also a hot tub and sauna. WiFi provides service for devices, but i chose not to use it and focus on the peace of the mountain.
