Both bedrooms are upstairs, the master with a queen size bed and the second bedroom with a full-size double bed. The stairs are steep and may be a challenge for some individuals.

Melanie D. Jun 24, 2025 01:43:57 AM
Summary: We wanted to be close to Great River Outfitters and we were. We also enjoyed White River Junction, Woodstock, alpacas, Sugarbush Farm and lots of good food and beer.We encountered a large spider web inside the back door and found the huge spider owner on the fireplace. I don't mind them so mush but My daughter had to dust for other crawlies.We could have used air conditioning the first night as it was so humid but other nights were quite pleasant.

Summary: This was the perfect cottage for a winter getaway. I was solo, but the home could have easily accommodated many more. I loved the vintage touches and had a nice time listening to the classic vinyl records while enjoying a glass of wine and watching it snow. I had dinner outside on the patio one night and the view was lovely. It is just a few minutes drive from Woodstock and Quechee and I visited both several times. The cottage was clean and had everything I needed. Highly recommend for a quiet, relaxing stay.

Summary: This house is exactly as described. It is in a very attractive location with good views and is very private. The house is much larger inside than it appears from the photos but still very cozy and is well equipped. It was spotlessly clean.

Summary: Had a great stay at the old school house. Location was perfect for what we needed. Place was super clean and well appointed. Would love to come back again.

Summary: There was a thick covering of dust on all the surfaces on the first floor, which we cleaned off the next morning. Despite the ad indicating that Wifi/internet was available, it was not. We contacted the neighbor, Matt, per the Host's instructions, regarding the issue and also reached out to the host two times. Neither responded nor did the issue get resolved which was very disappointing as my son had work for his job to do and was unable to do so and nor were we able to use any cell phone. The stay just added additional stress to an already emotional trip (death in the family).

Summary: Fantastic hilltop house in the woods of Vermont; spotlessly clean, very comfortable and tastefully decorated, we had a wonderful stay.
Gloria C. Jul 24, 2023 11:01:58 AM
Summary: We all enjoyed our stay here. After being in Niagara Falls for a few days it was nice to come here and relax before heading back to Maine. We enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere. The cottage is so quaint and the amenities were wonderful. We all had a wonderful time! We hope to return someday….
Barbara R. Jul 19, 2023 12:00:17 PM
Summary: The house is nicely arranged and furnished. Everything necessary was supplied. Lovely deck with high quality gas grill. Well located for touring VT sites.

Summary: Everything was perfect for our stay!!! Thanks!
Elizabeth T. Jan 20, 2023 11:44:30 PM
Summary: This property was the perfect accommodation for me and my husband as we road tripped across New England during the fall. The house was just as described. It sits on a bit of a hill. We enjoyed sitting on the deck with the small fire pit and drinking coffee. The house was cozy and close to town without being in town. I enjoyed the few historic pictures on the wall. I would recommend and if we are in this area again, I hope this property is available.
