Great communication. The house had everything we needed, including a well-stocked kitchen. Plenty of room for our 16 guests - huge kitchen table and multiple living rooms. Very close to restaurants/bars (walkable, although quite cold in winter) and Okemo (less than 5 min to Clocktower). If you're looking for a 5-star/high end rental, this isn't for you. However, if you're looking for a clean house with everything you'd need for a great vacation with a ton of family and friends, at a reasonable price, this is your rental. We will likely be back in the future and have already recommended it to friends.

College reunion

We used this property for our college reunion, including both kids and adults. It was the perfect space! Lots of areas to just hang out and ample sleeping space. The yard was fantastic and the location can’t be beat. We walked to the farmers market and the kids enjoyed the park across the street. Highly recommended!!

Easter stay

A large group of 10 adults and 12 kids ranging from 1 to 14 stayed at the lodge over Easter. The house had a fully equipped kitchen (including 2 dishwashers, 2 ovens and 2 fridges) that allowed us to cook multiple meals and easily clean afterwards. The house is centrally located and we could walk to restaurants, shops and the grocery stores. The hot tub and the pool table provided ample entertainment to the extend that the kids didn't even watch TV. Thank you very much for hosting us!

Great extended weekend

We have a group which tries to get away to Vermont once a year. This was actually our second stay at the Base Lodge (first was in 2022). The property has plentiful accommodation and a great interior space just a short walk from central Ludlow. We also appreciate the quiet back yard amenities at the Lodge. The owners were very responsive during our stay, answering questions promptly and keeping track of our needs. We would definitely stay again.

Lifetime memories

Base Lodge surpassed our expectations. The size and layout of the lodge is ideal for a large group. The three spaced apart common areas gave everyone an area to enjoy in smaller groups. The dining room comfortably seated all of us. The size of the kitchen lends itself to several people cooking at once. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub, playground across the street and nearby skiing. We hope Base Lodge becomes an annual tradition.

Diane's place in Ludlow is spacious and beautiful, in an ideal location in the town of Ludlow! Easy walking to restaurants, grocery, bars and a very short drive to the ski resort. The place has a beautiful backyard and patio area (love the hot tub) and indoors has a very spacious dining area. Pool, Shuffleboard, foozball, etc were all hits! Thanks again and we'll look to come back for ski season / another summer weekend :)

Fabulous!

Every year near the 4th of July our extended family gets together. This year we stayed at this house. It was wonderful! There were lots of bedrooms and beds for all plus it has numerous rooms to gather in. There was a living room, a den with a foosball table, a room upstairs with a shuttle board and couches and another room with a pool table. The dining room was huge with a long table that could fit everyone plus another little round table in a nook. The kitchen has two refrigerators and stoves and two dishwashers and a beautiful granite island. Outside there was a deck with a table and chairs and a hot tub plus a good size backyard with a fire pit. At times there were some gnats/no seeums that were annoying but it was just that time of year. They were also on the golf course etc. There was lots to do in the area. I love walking everyday and it was so nice to walk around the cute downtown and neighborhood. It was a nice area and felt very safe. You could walk to shops and restaurants and bars. Diane was so nice and excellent at communicating. The house was neat and clean and was so perfect for a big family gathering. Some people stayed up later than others and because the house is so spread out the people sleeping were never bothered by those staying up playing games. We had an excellent time and I highly recommend this home! It was a fabulous week! We all give it the highest rating possible.

Great place to host a reunion

We are a group of 19 people who have stayed at the Base Lodge several time over the years for annual reunions (interrupted only because of Covid). It is a perfect house for multiple people, with great gathering spaces, a terrific kitchen/dining area, lovely yard with fire ring, deck with hot tub and gas grill, games, pool table, handicapped accessible. Fantastic! The owners couldn't be nicer--super-accessible and responsive. The area is great--walking distance to shops, grocery store, book store, restaurants. Can't recommend it enough! And can't wait to come again next year.

Crazy Big House

There were 15 of us ranging from age 1- 67. We enjoyed the house. Very comfy and nothing around to really worry about with the kids playing everywhere. Plenty of space to spread out. We were a little disappointed with the hot tub, which we communicated with the owner. They are working on fixing it, but that didn’t help us for our weekend. Close enough to the mountain. We did try the shuttle on Saturday, but it wasn’t available on Friday.

Wonderful house and location, be careful of rate changes

We had a wonderful experience at the house. It’s spacious, well appointed, and well equipped for multi-family fun. The proximity to Okemo mountain makes for an easy trip to and from your ski trip. Lots of positives for the house, but my major warning is to beware of post booking rate changes. I made a reservation via VRBO and it was confirmed. However, I later received a note from the owners that rates were increasing by 43%. Quite the surprise! I made many offers to split the difference and in the end wound up with a 33% rate hike. We still made the trip and it was fun, but be careful of rate changes. You may wind up with an unpleasant surprise!
