Ski weekend with kids, friends, and family

Comfortable house with a great set up for families with kids, including two families given the room set ups. Not far from Mount Snow although in the wrong direction from town (which we knew). Great for a quick ski weekend.

functional but not the best experience

Overall, a functional place for staying for a ski trip at stratton. We had a large group and we ate breakfast and dinner at the bnb. Unfortunately, the power went out during our stay in the middle of the night and the description does mention that it might go out, there wasn't a storm happening or anything. It also didn't seem like the host made any effort to inquire why there was a power outage. Luckily the power came back on in the morning so it wasn't too bad. There also wasn't enough toilet paper and paper towels, and we messaged the host but they said they wouldn't provide and we'd have to go out and buy some. Additionally there is only 3 in 1 mens shampoo so I would recommend bringing shampoo and soap. All of these things were also on the listing as to be provided by the BNB host though they weren't / were not adequately provided for the entirety of our stay.

Wonderful family ski trip

We feel so fortunate to have found this great spot a short drive away from Mt Snow and right on a beautiful river. Cozy, warm, and had everything we needed. Becky was so communicative and everything was easy. Thank you!

New Year’s Ski Weekend

This house was very clean and met the needs of our family- friend weekend. It was well stocked with everything we needed. It’s just a few minutes away from Mt. Snow. Becky, the homeowner, was very attentive and quick to reply to messages. Thank you for the cozy house!

Milk weekend stay

We had a great long weekend stay despite the temporary loss of power due to a winter storm. All homes in the area were without power during this time. The owner was very communicative regarding this and other small issues.

Wonderful summer getaway

This place is everything we were looking for. The Wardsboro river (Creek) running in the backyard was the only thing our kid’s needed to keep them occupied. The place was exactly as advertised. I the downside of the property was the lack of air conditioning in the second floor. It got really swampy during the night so that would’ve been a plus. Otherwise, we would definitely return again !

Nice quiet getaway from it all

Quiet retreat with a nice little river out back, with plenty of room for a fire pit if you’d like. Lenty of amenities to make your stay comfortable with a nice dining and living room area downstairs. My personal favorite was the upstairs however, with several beds and the convertible washer and dryer. should you need it!

Spacious and simply stay!

My group and I stayed here for a weekend getaway and couldn't have asked for an easier welcome and stay. A few of my guests met the owners upon check-in and only had wonderful things to say about them. Majority of us live busy lives and Chris' home hit the spot for the perfect "off the radar" vibes but close enough to civilization if we really wanted it. The house is simple and has all the needs one can ask or want for. My group and I would gladly return!

Pleasant stay

The house was clean and came with complimentary pancakes. The internet setup at the house was unfortunately not working during our stay (Chris communicated this to us via email, which we didn't have access to at the house), but we found things to do, even without cell service. The wood pellet stove was not an issue. Overall, my group and I had a pleasant time.

Overall easy and great time

The property is as advertised and large enough for a group of friends or families. The view of trees and the river in the back are great and breathtaking. The home is very easy to get to and located between two great ski resorts, Stratton and Mt Snow! If your looking for a good location with a great and responsive owner, look no further!
