Summary: I came to Bennington VT for my daughter’s wedding. The weather was warm (mid eighties) and the house stayed cool. My guests and I used open windows and fans at night to stay comfortable. We rarely used the available AC units. The house is a lovely period home (1920/30’s) with all modern conveniences (WiFi printer with scanner was a nice surprise). Lucy has considered every need (that I had). Bathrooms were bright, cheerful, clean and well equipped. We spent a lot of time on the porch and strolling the gardens - lovely. I would recommend this home to anyone seeking a peaceful, tranquil setting. Also, the location is very convenient to both Bennington and N. Bennington. The neighborhood offers some pleasant strolls or good runs.

Summary: Yes, this house truly is superlative -- beyond comfortable with many thoughtful, personal touches; meticulously well-kept; situated on a beautiful, extensive piece of ground; and welcoming to our 4-legged family members. Lucy, the owner, is very kind and accessible and has many suggestions to maximize the local area experience; and her local agent is equally responsive. Our family wanted a quiet week to recharge and that is exactly what this house delivered. We stayed the week between Christmas and New Year and had a great time hiking locally, cross-country skiing at Wild Wings near Manchester, and enjoying down-time with board games and reading. We split meals between local restaurants and cooking in the exceptionally well-equipped kitchen -- the Crock Pot Slow/Instant Cooker is awesome! The house is historic so it has its quirks but that adds to the charm -- loved those wide-plank floors and the secret passage staircase. The wifi is good, the beds are comfortable, and the linens and towels are of very good quality. And there's plenty of room. Despite having the option of a heated bedroom, our daughter chose to sleep on the sleeping porch; she had a space heater and electric blankets and loved it -- even in 25 degree weather. The main level bedroom was cool and quiet, and our sons were comfortable in their room with the upstairs TV viewing space. We would happily return to this house. I would love to see the gardens when they are in bloom. If you are fortunate enough to rent this property, you will not regret it.

Summary: I absolutely adored every moment of the precious time I spent at Lucy’s beautiful home on Monument Ave. I found the house to be wonderfully nostalgic; full of history, memories, and a vibrant sense of connection to the village. Loved perusing the library—fellow old book lovers will definitely want to plan a shopping trip to DogEars Book Barn, which is just 10 minutes down the road. The house sits on a stunning piece of land (just a walk down to the end of the property is a treat in itself) with beautifully tended gardens, a huge maple tree to read under, a tranquil view, and a huge swath of endless grass for my dog to play on! We both really loved every minute and can’t wait to return, which I would not hesitate to do in any season of the year—thank you Lucy for your incredible hospitality; I loved swapping corgi pictures :)

Summary: All in all, the property was amazing. I was a little afraid of breaking something as much of the house was aged, with all modern conveniences though. The location was great and the host was most gracious and helpful at all times!
Arlene S. Jul 16, 2018 10:00:07 PM
Summary: We had a great week at Monument House. It is a beautiful house on a beautiful street with other historic homes. Everything we needed was there--the house was very thoughtfully outfitted and absolutely spotless when we arrived. The back covered porch and grounds were a delight, and we spent many hours relaxing there. We felt completely welcome. There were binders containing very helpful information and pamphlets about the area. Also, the owner, Lucy, was a terrific long-distance host, and provided much valuable and appreciated guidance on sights to see and things to do. She also checked up on us periodically to be sure we had everything we needed. I can't say enough positive things about this experience. I was sorry to leave and would go back in a second. Thank you Lucy!!

Summary: Lucy's home is comfortable and welcoming. The location is convenient to Bennington shops, restaurants, museums and is very walkable. Seeing the Bennington Monument from the backyard was an added bonus. We spent most of our time on the back porch; the view is gorgeous: gardens and mountains! The neighborhood is peaceful and quiet.
Jay J. Apr 12, 2018 09:14:28 PM
Summary: This is our second time at Lucy’s house. Monument Ave is a beautiful location, the house is gorgeous and the owner is the sweetest. Lucy is also very responsive when we have questions. We can’t wait to come back!

Summary: We had a fabulous Christmas Holiday spent at Monument House. The house is so cozy, comfortable and full of charm. It was super cold so we stayed warm with the roaring fire and good books! Such a peaceful time to get away from the city. Lucy was an excellent host and responded to every question quickly. We are very much looking forward to another stay!

Summary: My golden retriever and I thoroughly enjoyed our 3 month winter stay 2016-2017 in this charming, well maintained home in Old Bennington. The setting is lovely with an expansive yard and views of the historic Bennington Monument. We stayed warm and cozy, and especially appreciated the convenience of the attached garage and snow removal amenities. The owner, Lucy, and her property manager, Wendy, were very kind and hospitable, with attention to detail, ensuring a very pleasant experience. Thank you so much!
Davis and Patricia B. Sep 7, 2017 10:49:21 AM
Summary: Lovely stay while visiting family and friends. Truly a home that someone, for this week, us, lives. It has everything! Great porch, library and fireplace keeping room.
