Great Home Base

We had a great stay at the chalet. Even in the Summer heat, the house stayed cool enough and plenty of fans were supplied. The home was clean and well stocked. The location is an easy drive to Smuggler’s Notch and Stowe, and about 45 minutes to Burlington. Our dog loved exploring the property. We would definitely stay again.

Very cozy home close to Smuggler's Notch. It was great that we didn't have far to go after a whole day of skiing/snowboarding. Homeowners/Managers were very responsive with any questions. Would stay here again next time I'm in the area.

Just what we needed

It's a beautiful property to stay in. Everhthi g was set up perfectly. The only thing we wished for for A/C. We lucked out that the weather wasn't too warm, but it would have been nice for the lower bedrooms, for sleeping.

winter get away

We just stayed for a short period of 4 days but it felt like a longer vacation. The house is a true gem, with outside old charm and fully renovated inside. Everything was ready for us when we came, the rooms are nice size, clean and airy. It worked for us perfectly, the only thing we wish would be better was the weather. But no one can control Mother Nature. Thank you Haleigh and Antony for sharing your house with us!

Perfect chalet in the woods

Our family absolutely loved staying at the chalet! The owners clearly put a lot of time into updating it and the attention to detail really shows. Everything was so well done and the house was well stocked with basics to make our stay easier. The chalet was adorable and highly recommend to anyone considering spending time in the Stowe, VT area.

Perfect Fall Home

We really enjoyed our stay. The home was very clean and nicely equipped. We loved viewing the beautiful fall leafs from all the windows. It’s like a tree house. The local was great for our hiking and biking. The host was very helpful and responsive. We would definitely stay again.

Perfect vacation

What a wonderful experience! This is the perfect spot for a place to rejuvenate and enjoy quiet time with nature. The setting is peaceful and quiet with easy access to main roads. The house was absolutely perfect. Haleigh and Anthony thought of every detail to make the home accommodating, comfortable, and stress-free. The kitchen had everything you could need for at-home cooking and the home was spotlessly clean. The sunroom was our favorite location with the open windows and cool breezes. Our dogs had a blast running and playing outside.Thank you for sharing your special place with us! We hope to be back soon!

Neat and Clean

A big smile crossed my face when I opened the door to this clean, neat and tidy property. I think that it was the best of my dozen VRBO experiences. My family and I were skiing. Some of us drove in from the south up the mud bog. Coming in from VT 108 is recommended. My family could have used more towell bars.

Easy to find. Quiet, remote location, dog friendly. Very nice inside, well maintained, kitchen was well stocked for cooking there. Very comfortable place to stay. Heat worked well. About 2 miles from Smugglers' Notch Ski area. We hope to go back again!
