Weekend Stay

We spent the weekend at the house. Meg was a very gracious host and remained in communication with us throughout our stay. The place was clean and came complete with everything needed for a weekend away. Thanks for hosting us.

Everything we needed

We stayed here for our niece’s wedding. Much better than a hotel. The house had everything we needed. Very comfortable and convenient. Gorgeous yard! It was roomy enough to be able to all be together or find a quiet spot to be by yourself. We all really felt at home there. I would rent it again!

Wonderful!

This was the perfect house for our group of 4. My husband and I had the master bedroom with private bath. Our friends each had a queen bedroom and shared a common bathroom. The house was plenty big. The backyard is beautiful with all the flowers and the fire pit. The host keeps a very clean house and even leaves a little chocolates next to the beds. She also left us a bottle of wine. It's a very quiet neighborhood and only 20 minutes to Burlington. I would definitely stay again!

Family affair

We stayed at the VRBO due to a family emergency. The house was a perfect fit and Meg went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable. We were well pleased with the house, the area and the hospitality. Thank you again, Meg

Perfect for a ski getaway

Quiet Surprise was exactly what we were looking for for our family ski getaway. It is in a very quiet neighborhood with good proximity to several ski mountains as well as downtown Burlington. The property was well appointed and plenty of space for our family of four. Meg responded promptly to all of our questions. We would rent here again in the future!

We had a great time at Megan’s property. We were celebrating a late Thanksgiving dinner and the accommodations were great for us. The house was in a quiet family neighborhood. Megan was very responsive in any questions we had. Would definitely stay again.

AMAZING Garden

Megs house was in a great, quiet, neighborhood in Essex Junction. A short uber ride away from amazing hikes, restaurants, etc. I loved staying here to prep my daughter to move into her second year of college. The garden blew me away, a small taste of Japan and so many gorgeous flowers, plants. The house itself was great. Nice spacious kitchen for cooking and having a relaxing glass of wine.
