The house was great, very clean and had everything we needed. The clubhouse amenities are fantastic. We enjoyed our stay very much. I wish we could've stayed longer.
We have stayed at this property multiple times and enjoy it more each visit! The solitude away from crowds, the wood stove, the coziness - it is like home away from home. Joe is a super good guy and the home is stocked with all you need to make it a great ski/VT experience. Our boys especially love the sound system and old movie collection. We will be back for sure!
The house was perfect for our trip. Good size. Felt homey. The owner answered every question I had. I was very happy with our stay there.
Month-long stay during summer. Overall, very good. Great things: strong wifi; water pressure; views out ALL windows; quiet and peaceful - at night anyway. Not so great things: dealing w/ the neighbors’ ATV ‘block party’ (noise/dust/fumes) the second half of our stay; dealing w/ the fallout of an unsecured trash bin (neighbors’ bins were all secure) and unreliable/unpredictable garbage pickup in major bear country (fallout: cleaning up strewn garbage, worrying about host incurring incident fees, storing weekly garbage in mud room in the heat of summer). We still had a great time and enjoyed the house very much.
My husband and I rented Joe's house for a long weekend for our anniversary. We were looking for something different and had never been to VT before so figured we'd give it a try. We're SO glad we did! Joe's communication was A+ and his house is great. The pictures are very accurate which isn't always the case with rentals. One of the most important things I want to say is that I've never stayed at a place that is so well supplied and well equipped! From toilet paper to towels/facecloths to shampoo's etc...you name it and it was there and plenty of it. The bed we slept in was SO comfy, too! The property is great if you're traveling with anyone that has trouble with stairs as there is a bedroom and full bath on the main floor. The upstairs bathroom could use a little updating, but it was very clean and functional and that's what is most important to us so not a big deal whatsoever. The location of the house is great. You drive up some winding roads (some dirt) up the mountain to a wooded lot which seemed very secluded with all the trees even though there are neighbors. The large deck with the gas grill was perfect for making meals and a short drive into town are some great places to eat and shop. The three places we ate at were Dots, The Last Chair, and the Bullwheel at the summit of Mount Snow. I would highly recommend all three. The only complaint we had was that we wished we had more time! We will definitely be back!
Great Place
House had everything we needed! Great communication from our host as well. Highly suggest this property.
The best, they out did themselves ... all the essentials was in the house already. At ? worth evert dime .
a real bummer. could not travel as my wife had an arm atm and leg injury and we lost all our rental money which didnt help her pain. a return of some money or some arrangenent would have been a nice gesture.. reached out to owner butno reply. from him. some money or 2-3 days if he had weekday vacancy would be a nice gesture. we rented our Wilmington home to others and was always considerate of our renters wants and needs. it was never about the money. people sure are different.’ if you could help in anyway we would be most grateful. thank you. jim
Simple but nice home. Clean
Stayed a little over 2 weeks at the end of March. Snowboarding everyday, it’s about 18 minutes from mount snow. Had some friend’s come and stay , wife and kids visited too. Very comfortable place with everything you could need. Giant deck to hang out on with amazing afternoon sunshine. Zero complaints!!
