REVIEWS
"Location! Location! So close to ski areas and cute towns to explore. The house is nestled on a woodsy, quiet country road away from the hustle and bustle. Hop in your car and you are close to everything you need: skiing, hiking, biking, restaurants, grocery stores, shopping, etc. The house is extremely cozy, clean and welcoming! All the beds and mattresses were so comfy." - Olivia
"Perfect little place. Awesome little cabin in the woods. Secluded enough for pitch darkness at night, but 15 minutes from a grocery store or gas station. We had three in our group but could easily do three couples comfortably. Nice big eating table. Awesome yard. Firepit. Could definitely see coming back here. We brought the motorcycles and explored what Vermont had, and it didn't disappoint. Great communication with host." -Tim

Comfortable and cozy stay!
We stayed at the Bigfoot Chalet for a last-minute ski trip, and we had a wonderful stay. Home was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. Convenient to Killington - about a 25-30 min - and a lovely place to unwind at the end of a long day of skiing. We would love to return!

Great stay at the Chalet!
Excellent week at a cozy property, convenient to Killington and Okemo. Easy check in and check out; highly responsive and helpful host. Would recommend to those looking for a great VT escape.
Big Foot Chalet was the perfect place to connect with family. The house is about 12 minutes to Okemo. It is immaculate and adorable. They do allow dogs but you would never know it is so clean. Every last detail has been thought of. I brought so many things cooking utensils, towels, doggie bags, but everything was already there! The hosts literally thought of everything (down to some welcome snacks and advil you may have forgotten after a long ski day!) There is a fireplace that makes it extra cozy. Snowshoes are provided if you want to walk around the property (we had tons of snow.) The property is east to find and has parking for more than one car. The basement is perfect for kids, with their own TV. Leave your board games at home because the best ones are already there for family game night. You don’t need to look any further for the perfect ski chalet, Big Foot is the best. 11/10 experience.

Cozy stylish home in the perfect location
The house was exactly as described and shown in the pictures. The location is PERFECT. About 10 minutes from Okemo with the cute downtown area with shops and restaurants. If it was in ski season we would be in heaven! The layout was so good for family/friends with the upstairs and downstairs bedrooms and the hosts had the home immaculate with a great eye for a cozy design and added features. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything a person would need- and a little welcome gift for the morning! The yard has enough room for the outside fire pit to socialize and the stars at night without the light pollution are beautiful. We loved the fact that we could bring our furry family member, it made the stay feel like our hosts knew that was important. With it being pet friendly there was not a single pet hair from any previous stays. Great outdoor deck area to sit with coffee in the am. The neighbors are close enough to feel safe, but far enough to feel like we had our privacy. Our hosts left very detailed instructions and they responded immediately to one of our questions when we contacted them. They truly made us feel like we were in a home away from home. We would love to come back again during the ski season or the fall with the foliage with the location and house setup perfect for two families. It was one of the nicest VRBOs we have stayed at. Highly recommend.

Couples weekend getaway
My boyfriend and I along with my cousin and her boyfriend had the best fall couples getaway. We went to some breweries and explored the town and came back home to Bigfoot Chalet our cozy little cottage each night. Grilled some steaks had and bon fire and played some board games. We did it all! Highly recommend the alpine coaster in killing on. Perfect place located very close to everything.
We did bring our doggo he never ventures far from us especially in the dark. Only suggestion I’d give for anyone planning to bring their pup if your planning on hanging outside after dark bring a long leash or reflective collar it does get very dark with just the stars in the sky.
Beautiful home with lovely hosts 12 out of 10 recommend!

Comfortable VT Lodge
My two cousins, two babies (~1 and 2 years old), two days, and me had a wonderful time at the property! It suited our needs very well and was incredibly comfortable. We spent a lot of time in the front yard, walking nearby, and exploring southern Vermont. There’s no cell service, but the wifi works really well. Jeanne was incredibly communicative when we needed her during the trip. Checkin was also super easy. We would definitely be back!
