    John is a great host and super easy to communicate with. His cottage is perfect for me and my dog to explore the great outdoors in the Craftsbury-Greenboro area. The cottage is also very close to two great general stores, the Genny in Craftsbury and Willey’s in Greensboro. The cottage has all the amenities you need to stay as long as you want and also has a great yard just to hang outside and play with your dog.

    This was a wonderful find! Spacious, quiet, and clean--what more could you ask for. The host got back to me within 10 minutes when I had a question. Our dog loved the space he had outside just to be a dog. We will definitely put this one on our list of places to come back to.

    Great Layout. Bedroom is pretty squished with the full bed taking most of the floor space. Water pump is quite loud when in the bedroom. But there is lots of other space. Comfy bed. Comfy seating. Everything you need in kitchen. Place was quite clean. Perfect for a couple.

    We were really happy with our stay. Was surprised how cozy and warm the cottage was in negative temperatures, and it was more spacious than anticipated with the loft area. Our dog really enjoyed the large private yard. Host gave good instructions and tips. C Village Store is a must when visiting. Bring bottled water since it is well water.

    This cottage is the perfect spot for a comfortable winter getaway. I felt so at peace sitting by the fire with a cup of tea, staring out the big living room windows glistening with icicles onto our little refuge in the mountains. The host was communicative and stocked us up with some essentials we would need during our stay, including a list of nearby stores that could provide for all of our needs. Craftsbury is a charming little town and its General Store is filled with delicious, locally-made food.

    A very sweet, clean home in a great part of Vermont. Truly in the middle of the woods. Lots to explore. Craftsbury is a charming blink-and-you'll-miss-it town with an excellent general store (The Genny). Hill Farmstead Brewery has incredible beer; sit out and enjoy. Swimming in Caspian Lake to cool off. John is an available and communicative host. Am hoping someone will get back to me about the jeans I accidentally left behind but no biggie if not. Definitely a special place from which to explore the NorthEast Kingdom!
