Summary: Plenty of space for a big family. Just 30 minutes from MT Snow and Berkshire East. Chris was very communicative and helpful. He plowed after a big storm came the night we checked in and had a fire running for us when we arrived.

Crystal N. Jul 1, 2024 08:19:17 AM

Chloe K. Jan 3, 2023 04:52:17 AM

Summary: Had the best couple of days skiiing at Stowe with a large group of friends and family. More than enough room for everyone after a long day of skiing, and Stowe was only a 30 min drive. Chris was super helpful with the property since the temp dropped right before we arrived, and took the time to clear out the driveway and help with iciness. The house is full of hilarious character, and we had a blast!

Ethan F. Mar 7, 2022 12:48:48 PM

Summary: We were up for a ski vacation and Chris couldn’t have been more accommodating., great communication throughout, and wanted to make sure we had a great stay. The wood stove made for a really warm and inviting game room, lots of space to spread out for younger and older kids, and easy ride to Mount Snow! Loved the creative and homey decorations - made for a fun scavenger hunt for the younger kids. Thank you!

Breanne H. Jan 26, 2022 08:30:31 PM

Summary: House was great for my friends and I to stay for a couple nights to go skiing! Chris was super friendly! The exact check in and check out instruction were a little confusing, but Chris was super responsiveness with questions and even allowed us to check out a bit late! Overall, highly recommend this amazing winter cabin!

Matthew L. Jan 22, 2022 06:48:01 AM

Summary: Had a great stay here with some friends MLK weekend. Chris is super laid back and easy to get in touch with and gives you all the info you need upon arriving. The house is super homey and unique, everything we needed. He even plowed us out the driveway when we left after a storm, really nice cool guy.

Veronica H. Jan 13, 2022 09:17:40 PM

Summary: We had a wonderful time in Chris' home. We cooked several meals in the kitchen, and had more than enough room for the 8 of us. His house provided easy access to skiing (we went to Mount Snow) and hiking through the back of the property. I would highly recommend staying here!
