Brought to you by GetAway
Welcome to Old Orchard House, your ideal country estate getaway located in Brandon, Vermont — a historic town known for its vibrant arts scene, charming galleries, and small-town hospitality. Perfectly positioned near Lake Dunmore, Neshobe Golf Course, local wineries, and the Middlebury Snow Bowl, this elegant farmhouse offers space, serenity, and timeless Vermont charm surrounded by apple orchards, meadows, and a private pond.
Inside, this expansive home features five bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms across two wings, blending classic architecture with modern comfort. The main level showcases radiant pine flooring, reclaimed barn board walls, and a stunning great room with high ceilings, exposed beams, and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. The country-style kitchen comes fully equipped with modern appliances, while the library and den provide a cozy place to read, relax, or work remotely.
Upstairs, guests will find additional sitting areas, private bedroom suites, and a convenient laundry setup. The second wing, located above the kitchen, offers a secluded two-bedroom suite with its own sitting area and shared bath — perfect for families or friends traveling together.
Step outside to enjoy the patio overlooking the pond and meadows, or explore the property's 10 peaceful acres complete with an apple orchard and open fields.

Nice, rustic house outside of downtown Brandon Vermont. Easy access, smooth checkin, and plenty of kitchen dishes and cookware.No AT&T cell service for me in the house (though there was at the top of the driveway), but good internet. The weather was pretty hot for Vermont - there are room air conditioners in most rooms and the common space that worked pretty well.Clean place, though not new. And a bit unusual that there were wooden indoor shutter for most windows, and only a few shades/curtains.

Amazing
Plenty of room for 8 of us to spread out and enjoy. A lot of character to the house...old charm with modern upgrades. Sitting on the back porch was so relaxing. We saw the deer, wild turkeys, chipmunks, tree frogs...heaven. One surprise...I wasn't expecting the house to be so well insulated inside. Even in the adjoining rooms....there was no noise. I didn't hear a peep. Check out requirements are a breeze and the customer service from Getaway was top notch. We made so many memories. Thank you!

Recommended. Hand rail up front porch for elderly, set of steps off back porch for elderly so they dont have far to walk to pond, clearer instructions on where things are in the home ie light switches or switches for awning, ceiling fans. More fans or ceiling fans in home and there were plenty of tvs i the home but only 2 were smart tvs so none of others worked with wifi or cable.

Perfect House in a Perfect Location
This house was absolutely perfect for our group which included young adults, old adults, older adults, a toddler and two dogs! The house was gorgeous, the fireplace worked beautifully and we had a fire going constantly, cooked in the very well-equipped kitchen, and enjoyed roaming the property. The town of Brandon is lovely, with a fantastic bakery/coffeeshop, micro-brewery, independent bookstore and unique gift shops. There was also a grocery store in town. We hope to be back. Highly recommend.

Room for the whole family for graduation weekend
Our son graduated from Middlebury and we had lots of family with us ranging from 19 to 85. The old orchard house had room for us all and was such a lovely and spacious place for us to gather and celebrate the weekend.

Beautiful place, great location.
This property is absolutely amazing inside and out. It was perfect for our crew as we traveled through the area with a peaceful location to enjoy a warm wood-burning fireplace, and it's close enough to some great restaurants and local interest points to help make your trip a great time. I will 100% stay there again if/when I am back in the area.
