We arrived late at night the accommodations were outstanding. We could not have asked for a more perfect place. When we woke the next day to amazing lush greenest. We enjoyed the entire stay. We actually extended the stay one day to enjoy the place more.
It was wonderful to return to this cozy welcoming property. I stayed in the other house maybe 6 or 7 years in a row quite some time ago. You can tell itâs such a family place. Everything was easy, comfortable and the spot is just amazing. We couldnât have been happier.
We spent the very first Christmas away from home and into a home that made the holiday a wonderful memory for us. We have stayed at this property in the summer and both seasons did not disappoint. The property is in a secluded area, quiet and very close to skiing. I would book and stay here forever if I could. MM
Great home and property! We really enjoyed our stay.
Awesome location, set off of a private road , yet just a short drive to Manchester Village, and restaurants and shops. Custom home, beautiful exposed beams throughout, full of character. Great Communication with Brad.
Thank you!
This is a cozy lodge filled with interesting antiques and a drop dead gorgeous location on a private pond. Minutes from the entrance to Bromley Mountain for skiing or summer fun. Well appointed rooms sleep 6 adults and 2 children easily. Woke up to coffee on the deck watching birds. Loved it!
This was such a charming experience in a rustic cabin that offered everything you would need for your stay.
Communication and directions were outstanding and made this location easy to find.
When we first arrived we thought this would be too close to the main road but honestly once you get inside the peacefulness of this cabin took over and there was a tremendous sigh of relief as the work stress melted away.
Great experience and we all agreed we would come back here again!
A terrific get-away to Vermont cabin in the woods, we drove up from Virginia. We spent the week between Christmas and New Years, very close to Bromley Ski mountain, easy drive to Stratton and others. We cooked meals in every night, everything was there that we needed. Played family games after dinner, they have a stocked cabinet full of options. No complaints at all.
We were 3 couples over 60. The house was plenty large to accommodate all of us with ease and comfort. We enjoyed lots of laughter in the dining and sun rooms. The large kitchen was easy to work in.
Overall, the house is great and convenient to Manchester.
Two things to note: the pond is barely visible from the house due to the summer foliage. Route 11 created more road noise than I expected.
Staying at this house was an honor, you can just feel the history inside! If you appreciate authenticity and antiques, this is the stay for you. Heat and hot water were fabulous. Ester was so kind, she even mailed back my friends forgotten laundry (and added in a shirt and hat!!) A piece of my heart is left with this house... We WILL be back!
We loved our stay at the lodge. We had two couples and kids ranging in age from 2 to 12. We did lots of skiing at Bromley but loved having Manchester so close to explore. The pinball arcade was a great rainy day activity for kids! The house was amazing and bigger than we imagined, we were all extremely comfortable. The only thing to mention is the stairs and upstairs loft are a bit scary for little ones. We blocked them with a baby gate and didnât let the two year old up there, but it was fine for the big kids. We canât wait to plan another stay next year!
Property is a great location to explore Vermont. We spent 4 nights and visited several locations throughout the State.
Hiked to Bromley summit right from front door and the Lye Brook Falls hike was great.
Description indicates a cleaning co. Maintains the property but on arrival we found a partially decomposing mouse in the upper level shower and during the stay had large black ants in dinning, kitchen and lower level
Bathroom.
I cleaned up the mouse and dealt with ants as we saw them.
Overall did not let those things deter our trip.
Rented this lodge based on other positive reviews - and they were spot on! Greeted by snowy landscape and cozy, warm, lodge wonderfully appointed More you looked, more you saw! Comfy beds, good showers, full service kitchen, spotless. Our family of 5 adults , 13 yr old twin granddaughters greed we felt like we were in a welcoming home. Brad, part owner/prop. manager immediately responded to call or text. We are looking forward to Dec 2025 to do it all again. Donât miss Zoeâs grill in Manchester
We loved our stay in this beautiful old cabin/barn, the space was perfect for our family of 5 plus our dog. Location is great, close to town but remote and private. It lacked nothing, especially not charm.
Fantastic. So unique. Beautiful place to get snowed in. Skiing 3 miles away, Manchester is only 6 miles away. We stayed here two years ago and loved it. We will be back. Highly recommend.
When I walked in the door, I told my wife, âThis house smells like VT!â I meant that the most positive way. The massive fireplace is well loved and the house smells like a ski lodge is supposed to smell. Anyone that appreciates post and beam construction with old barn wood as well as antiques is going to love this property. The decor is beautifully done and it is fun trying to figure out the original purpose for some of obscure pieces that have been repurposed in very creative ways. The gardens around the house are stunning and we enjoyed sitting on the front porch reading and watching the birds and chipmunks. We stayed in the house for two weeks in July. It was 90 degrees in the valley during the day but at night the mountain temperature dropped so that it was cool enough that the fans were more than sufficient to keep us comfortable. For a few days we had 5 girls in the house and we never had a problem with water pressure or hot water. The house is really as beautiful as it appears in the pictures. If you like the house from the pictures, you are going to love the house when you get there. We are definitely considering this house for a future visit to VT.
A beautiful and unique location! Such a great old house with a wonderful sun porch looking out over the pond. We had a great time wandering the trails and relaxing around the yard.
This home has an amazing vibe with its old barn feel and antiques. Working with the property manager has been great! We enjoyed our stay and time away in this home.
