THIS WAS THE MOST AMAZING HOME WE HAVE EVER RENTED! We feel so lucky to have found it -- EVERYTHING you could ever hope for was provided! We hope to go back again SOON!
The picture makes the house appear smaller, when we got there we were pleasantly surprised at how much bigger it was. Joan had left bacon and eggs and a lot of other amenities for us. She was very responsive to messages. The house was clean, the beds and bedding were comfortable. The location was fantastic, we skied Bromley which was only 17 minutes away. The only downside I would say is there are no locks on any of the doors and the basement had an odor. The kids were down there and didnât seem to mind.
We all agreed that this is an absolutely beautiful and comfortable property! It couldnât have been any better. Joanie is an excellent host wanting to be sure everything is just right and she is so easy to communicate with. The location is wonderful too as we could walk to coffee shops, restaurants and shops. The scenery in the area is lovely surrounded by mountains. Absolutely perfect!
Amazing home, well outfitted and great surprise of breakfast foods stocked in the fridge. Comfy beds and high quality linens. The decor is really fun! The kitchen had everything we needed to cook several meals. Highly recommend.
Very Charming Vermont House: Ideal for Our Family & Friends Trip
It was our first time staying at this house for an annual ski weekend with three families (adults + kids), and it was perfect! The house is beautiful, spacious, clean, and warm - perfect for our group. There was plenty of space to hang out and relax, and the kids loved the sleeping setup in the basement. Itâs also an amazing location, within walking distance to all the restaurants and shops in Manchester, perfect for the non-skiers in the group. Highly recommend!
Joan and her home helped create a great weekend exploring Vermont.
The house is always clean and in an excellent location. So easy to get down town for shops and restaurants or to get out of town to Bromley and Stratton.
Joan is very responsive to any need and leaveâs excellent instructions for open and close, as well as listings of local activities and food.
Thanks again!
The pictures on line of this house are beautiful. Walking into the home far exceeded what we saw in photos. This home is gorgeous, immaculately clean, spacious, lots of extra touches, like eggs, bacon, butter, orange juice in the fridge. Joan is a lovely hostess and quick to answer any questions or requests. This is one of my top ten VRBO properties!
We had a wonderful stay at the Bonnet House. We shared the house as two families of four and there was so much room to spread out. The basement was the perfect place for a sleepover for the younger boys. The house was immaculate and all of the little touches made our Bromley ski weekend perfect!
This is a beautiful home, the pictures struggle to do it justice! Rooms are big and bright, everything is immaculate and Joanie makes the check in and check out process so very easy.
We stayed with three adults and 2 kids (6 & 4), and everyone had plenty of space to enjoy themselves and spread out.
Easy walking to Manchester center and super short drive to Dana Thompson park, Bromley and Stratton meant we would we were never short of activity options.
10/10 would (and probably will) stay here again!
This house is a gem in the middle of a beautiful town. The quality of the interior is outstanding. Plenty of space for everyone. Joan was incredibly responsive and nothing was too much trouble. As others have said, the kitchen is well stocked. Plenty of linens, towels and additional touches with bath robes in the closets. The other thing Joan couldnât control was the weather so we didnât ski much but with such a stunning home we were happy to sit around the fire and play games. Thank you - we canât wait to come back.
The Bonnet House is absolute treasure. Perfectly situated in Manchester. It's easy walking distance to all of the shops and eateries but tucked safely to the side of traffic and noise. We had easy access to coffee shops, restaurants/bars, bakeries, and one of the best book stores we've ever been to. The property is perfect with ample parking, a great sitting porch on the front and back, and a gas fire pit to enjoy with friends and family. The house itself has plenty of space for large dinners and gatherings but maintains an extremely cozy feel with all of the decorations and places to sit and cuddle. Perfect for all ages and affords enough spaces for kids and adults to have their own areas and not bother each other. The host, Joanie, is extremely accommodating. Everything was clean, stocked, and well thought out. There are extras of everything. Joanie even had some things in the fridge for us to throw a little breakfast together if we wanted to. The environment is warm and cozy. The home was surprisingly well insulated as well. It was an easy drive to and back from Stratton Mountain where my family spent our days on the slopes. I would definitely recommend Bonnet House and we will definitely be back. This house truly had something for everybody. Kids room with comfy beds in the lower floor for them to watch movies and play games. A quiet sitting room to read or write. A large family room where we watched movies together. However the absolute highlight was the chess table. Our little ones learned how to play on this trip and the adults had fun sitting around with drinks in our hands watching our kids pull their queens out way too early :)
p.s. when we discovered that the Keuring machine was not working properly, we texted Joanie only to discover that there was a new machine in the box sitting on the porch. The attention to details, quick responses, and overall care were greatly appreciated and we did not take it for granted. It definitely made our stay comfortable and stress free.
Our entire family, including Grandparents, Parents, children and a nanny stayed at several homes owned by the same host - all practically next to each other. This home was the center of our activity and was loved by everyone. The location is perfect for walking to town - to the Northshire Bookstore and other nearby sites. While we were there in the winter, it would be great in the summer, as well, with easy access within walking distance to all the Manchester municipal parks. Joanie was a great host, always responsive if we had any questions, and personally delivered new batteries for a TV remote when an issue arose. All rooms are very comfortable and several children in the family - ages 5-11, claimed the basement as their âhangoutâ and loved it. Highly recommend this house and host.
We stayed at this home over Thanksgiving. It offered plenty of space for 10 guests. It was very comfortable and well stocked. Check in was super seamless. Walkable to downtown Manchester. Would definitely stay here again!
Walking distance to the middle of Manchester, this house is perfect for big groups, horseback riders, skiers, leaf peepers. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is well appointed. The new AC system makes it a perfect summer rental. This was my second time staying. And I will return next summer.
I moved to Manchester 12 years ago. I have renovated this house and created my other rental, "Tucked In" which is on the same property. Until now, I have only rented Tucked In. The cottage has been a huge success. I decided it was time to share my amazing main house with the VRBO community.
This property is perfect for any number of scenarios. Family reunion, girls or guys getaway, couples, family ski vacation and with the additional cottage, the possibilities are endless. It is a very relaxing, comfortable home in the middle of downtown Manchester on a half acre. The cottage is rented separately.
