Very private, dog-friendly country house with hot tub on a lovely 10 acre meadow

A rare and cozy country retreat for a romantic getaway or family vacation, this charming country house is located on a dead-end road just minutes from Stowe. Elegant hardwood floors, original art and antique furniture provide warmth, charm and the quintessential Vermont experience. Relax in the hot tub and watch the sun set over the meadow where a variety of wildlife make it their home. Throughout your stay you will be surrounded by a chorus of birds and the beauty of nature and your dog can roam free in acres of fields with no traffic in sight.

Close to skiing and hiking and adjacent to a golf course and cross country ski and snowmobile trails, this is the perfect spot from which to explore the outdoors. The wood stove and outdoor hot tub make this a cozy retreat at the end of the day and with it's complete privacy, this country house is also ideal for reading, watching a movie, relaxing and rejuvenating. The two queen bedrooms on separate floors offer privacy, luxury linens and down comforters, and an overflow loft accessed by a ladder can sleep an extra adult in a pinch. A fully-equipped kitchen, outdoor deck and gas grill are ideal for warm cozy nights at home. Well behaved pets are welcome.

Amenities: Well appointed kitchen, microwave oven, coffee maker and a gas stove. Dining table expands to seat 6. Rustic basement laundry accessed by ladder with washer and dryer. Wood stove. Television. CD player, VCR. Deck, gas barbecue, and outdoor hot tub.

Activities: Close to skiing, miles of snow-shoeing, cross country skiing, biking, hiking and fishing. Close to town and shopping.

Serene relaxation spot
The property was as listed. Secluded spot, but just close enough to get to town to do stuff. The check in process was seamless. The house does have some regular wear and tear, but is super cute and was great for me and my friend's to relax. My dog loved the yard. We did have to purchase a new propane tank to use the grill for just one night. Also didnt have enough toilet paper for the whole trip. There are no paper towels either. We did not reach out to anyone cause we figured it was just our responsibility to buy these things, but maybe for future renters let them know they may need to reach out for that or will need to purchase/bring things like that with them. The hot tub is a great addition and is very relaxing to sit in and watch the sunset or listen to nature. I rated the cleanliness a 3 only because the microwave was dirty upon arrival. Aside from the small things, which are easily amended, it was a great time and great place to stay.

Barn House
The barn style house is quaint, but has a lot of wear and tear for the price of stay. The kitchen supplies need to be updated. There were no mixing bowls. The house is a bit noisy when you’re running the utilities, such as washing machine and dryer. To save on the floors of the house I would suggest you put in some sort of walkway entrance to the front door. We experience, snowy weather and mud. A raised decking system would hopefully prevent carrying mud into the house.

A fantastic place to stay for Stowe
We loved everything about this property! The location was great, the house was spotless and checkin was super easy. Unfortunately, we had absolutely zero correspondence with the host or even the co-host. We didn't reach out during our stay, but they also failed to let us know that the main route to their lane, had the road closed due to a wash out or bridge repair. I feel that would have been something they could have let us know ahead of time.

Just right
A really nice Vermont experience for us and our small dog. The house is cozy & comfortable and in a peaceful spot with nice views out the windows. We did require our all-wheel drive vehicle since there was a thaw and the road was muddy and closed from one direction. We skied at Stowe, a short drive away.

Perfect Holiday Stay
A very comfortable farm home stocked with all of the necessary amenities and space for the dogs to run and play, a perfect way to enjoy the long holiday weekend. Excellent location with Stowe Village just a few short minutes away with an incredibly easy drive to the Burlington/Lake Champlain area. Looking forward to hopefully a return Summer visit.

Great getaway location!
My partner and I stayed here for 7 winter weeks, along with our dog and some guests every so often. This little cottage was a great place at a unbeatable price for what it offered: dog friendly, hot tub, and room for guests. The master bedroom bed (Queen) is comfortable (not too soft) and the kitchen is indeed well-appointed. During the winter months, you will need to supplement the central heating with the wood burning stove, which absolutely keeps the home toasty! Keep in mind that this is an old cottage on farm land. That means insects, water from a well (with low water pressure), and the occasional mouse. The home is clean and the property manager is right around the corner, responsive, and very kind.

the best weather of winter
We had a wonderful stay. The house was comfortable and warm. The house is located in a great area for privacy, quiet and all the recreational activities we wanted to do (downhill & x-c skiing, snowshoeing and hiking). In a winter with no snow, this was the best week. It snowed almost every day of our stay. Lots of fresh, soft, & fluffy snow! Cheryl was wonderful and helpful. She got the hot tub up and running for us. We would love to stay here again.

A Dream!
This house and property was absolutely amazing and picturesque. The home was spotless, welcoming, warm, and really put us in the holiday mood. The kids had such a good time that they cried when we had to leave. We attempted to stay another night but the home was rented already (no surprise!). The kids loved the loft room, they said it was their "dream bedroom". Our puppies had tons of room to run around outside and burn off some energy (kids too!). We had great communication with the owner and property manager. I highly recommend this property for a rental. It's also very close to town, and offers you that privacy that you really want. We are from NYC so we wanted lots of space inside and outside - mission accomplished. Thank you!
