We truly enjoyed the property and location. Apartment loft was very clean, it was a quiet location close to amazing bike rides, lakes and great restaurants. Peter is the perfect host, he was there to greet us and was available to answer questions during our three night stay. We plan to return very soon.
Very clean quiet setting, conveniently close to Middlebury College. Close to all the venues for our visit to Otter Creek Music Festival.Well-stocked fridge for breakfast and bathroom supplies had everything we could want. Host Peter insisted on carrying our luggage up and down the stairs. Couldnât ask for a better host.
We enjoyed our stay very much. Peter and Graziella are excellent hosts. They left vases of beautiful fresh flowers, breakfast items and lots of fresh fruit. Would definitely stay again.
Home was clean, cozy and well maintained. The host left breakfast food in the refrigerator and fresh flower arrangements throughout the home. Property was lovely and conveniently located. We had a very relaxing stay.
We had a wonderful stay. We were there to visit our son at Middlebury which was only 15min away. Peter was wonderful to communicate with and was there when we arrived to show us around. The place was great. Very cozy and clean and had all the amenities we needed for our short stay. We would stay there again in a heartbeat.
What a lovely place to stay - home away from home. Hosts were welcoming and gracious, the apartment is very well appointed with wonderful art pieces, and the heated floor in the bathroom is luxurious!
A very special placeâŠâŠ
Just had a wonderful time staying at this property. Quiet, clean and peaceful. The owners are kind, caring and ready to help make your stay comfortable. I highly recommend this if you are looking to enjoy the Vermont charm and beauty that surrounds you here.
Graziella and Peter are the loveliest and most generous hosts! Their home exudes care and creativity, the property is stunning, and the rental apartment couldn't be cozier, cleaner, or more welcoming. We can't wait to return!
Loved the space and the property. Natural beauty everywhere you look. The hosts are gracious and anticipated needs. Fresh flowers everywhere in the apartment made it so homey, a beautiful touch. Truly enjoyed the artwork by Gracilella. Will certainly stay there again if we are in the area.
Peter and Graziella have created a superb open loft--in an orchard and decorated it with whimsical and elegant vintage pieces. Spacious, comfortable, clean, quiet and refreshing.
Easy access and clear instructions as well as quick reply to texts made this a first class work-stay in the Middlebury area. I look forward to a return trip!
An oasis of art in an organic apple farm in Whiting, VT
This is a truly lovely property with views of Vermont's Green Mountains and New York's Adirondacks. Apple trees abound, along with flowers and even fireflies at night.
The interior is bright and has a wonderful collection of art, plus wide pine floors. The listing is accurate yet too modest.
We were lucky enough to stay at Peterâs beautiful apartment for the second year in a row while we moved our daughter in at Middlebury College. The apartment is clean, quiet, and beautifully decorated, and Peter is the consummate host. In addition to a huge vase of wildflowers, Peter also stocked the refrigerator with breakfast provisions and a big bowl of fresh fruit. I cannot recommend staying here enough!
Everything was as advertised. Very clean. Kitchenette had fridge, 2 burners, microwave and countertop toaster/oven. Unit was nicely decorated, bed was confortable. Fresh fruit, milk, butter, cheese, eggs upon arrival. Peter was a very gracious host, arranging for a late arrival. Would stay again.
This was an incredible find on a scenic byway 10 minutes from Middlebury. The views from the property are gorgeous in all directions, and the above-garage apartment is perfect for 3 people. It was very clean, bright, and well furnished, with everything we needed for cooking in. Peter, the owner, was friendly, helpful, and easy to communicate with, and added lots of nice touches, including a bowl of garden-grown berries on our arrival. We would definitely stay here again.
We loved the space from the moment we arrived.
The location is perfect for that âgetting away from it allâ feeling but still close to things to do. The apartment was perfect for our Anniversary trip. The layout, decor and artwork create a welcoming feel.
The breakfast ingredients ,fresh flowers and a special surprise for our celebration was so appreciated. The hosts were respectful of our privacy but available and communicated well. We were able to relax and enjoy this beautiful part of the state. We hope to return soon!
This is a lovely place to stay with an artful interior and scenic exterior. The host communicated with us and stayed up to welcome us despite our very late arrival. The property was quite convenient for Middlebury College drop off. We really appreciated the organic eggs and fruit that the owners provider and the apartment was well equipped and comfortable.
Graziella and Peter are dual citizens of Switzerland and the USA. We have traveled the world extensively and respect different cultures, strongly believe in human goodness, diversity, and a common respect for each other.
We give our guests all the privacy they cherish but are always available if assistance or information is needed.
