Cute place and location
It was great
The cottage we stayed at was absolutely lovely. It was so peaceful sitting on the porch each morning. The lake was great for fishing. Rose was very communicative. Upon our return my husband thanked me for finding a dream come true vacation.
My family loved our time at Rose's place! It is well-stocked with fans, life jackets, water floats, etc., and the view from the porch and the yard is incredible. My family spent a lot of time on, or in, the water, which is very swimmable around the dock. An umbrella and lots of games and DVD's are also provided, so we even enjoyed a rainy day at the lake. We recommend both Ramunto's Pizza and The Avocado Pit in Bennington for take-out. Rose was great at communicating, both before and during our stay. My family enjoys discovering new places, so it is rare that we return to a place we have rented. However, both my husband and my daughter have asked me to rent this place again at some point in the future. We had a great stay!
This is the perfect spot for a getaway. The cabin was spotless, and everything was there that we needed to enjoy the week. The weather was interesting, but we had plenty of sunny hours. Rose was always available and kept us up on the road conditions. A couple trips to town and seeing some of the history there. Norman Rockwell fans here.The Sugar Shack in Arlington was a delight for us.
We enjoyed our week. The cottage worked out great - it is quaint and “old timey” - kept clean and well appointed. We spent a lot of time in and around the water - which is so nice and not full of weeds. We also especially enjoyed the back porch room and the deck. The sound of the road - 18 wheelers especially - is present, but it is what it is and certainly not in the control of the owner. Speaking of the owner, Rose is great at communicating and made sure our stay was comfortable. We had a great week!
This is exactly what my husband and I were hoping for. A peaceful getaway on a lake. We had a wonderful time. I can’t say enough about Rose. Every time I reached out to her from the start of booking till our last day, she responded in a timely, helpful manner. We ran into one minor problem, which she addressed immediately. Thank you for sharing this little piece of heaven with us.
We enjoyed our five days at this clean and comfortable lake house a lot, especially the view of the lake from the dining room table each morning and throughout the day when we weren't out and about taking in many things in the Bennington area. We were there the last part of September, and although it was on the cool side, the house was always warm -- great furnace! The kitchen was well-equipped and had everything we needed when we were eating in. We blew a fuse once and had an issue with the TV, but both situations were resolved quickly. Furnishishings are simple but adequate. We would stay here again; it is a relaxing place to be. Thank you, Rose!
The cabin is cute, cozy, has everything you need, and the lake is steps away. The fishing is fantastic (smallmouth, largemouth, giant pickerel) and the kids LOVED swimming and kayaking all day. It's our second time staying here and there will likely be a third.
We enjoyed our stay in this comfortable house and appreciated the lovely quilts and paintings and other decorative objects throughout. Breakfast overlooking the lake, either on the outside porch or the enclosed porch, was a delight every day. We swam several times each day in the clear water of Big Pond, just steps from the house, and we noted that the lawn has both sun and shade all day long. There was a gorgeous sunset on our first night (but unfortunately cloudy evenings thereafter). Woodford is an easy drive to Bennington and Manchester, where it was fun to browse in the shops.
We really enjoyed our week stay in Woodford. Rose was easy to reach when we needed her, the property was campy (in a good way) but clean and well-appointed, was everything we needed to relax. My only issue (if you could even call it that) is the property is fairly close to RT9, although set back, so we didn't feel super comfortable allowing our dogs off leash. That being said the proximity to Rt 9 is also nice, sitting right between cute, quaint Wilmington and well-appointed Bennington. Very close to Woodford state park with easy hiking. Would very much recommend Rose's place for a family getaway.
This was our second stay at the cottage and it was just as great as the first.
