Gorgeous Home 1/2 mile from the Base of Sugarbush-Mt. Ellen.
Welcome to one of the Valleys’ newest vacation home! Completed in 2022, this 4 bedroom, 3 1/2 bath beauty is 1/2 mile from the Sugarbush-Mt. Ellen base. Well appointed bedrooms, beautifully tiled baths and a fully equipped gourmet kitchen await your stay. You will have access to the garage which accommodates one car, just a few steps from the house.
The house resides on 3.2 acres of wooded forest at the base of Mount Ellen/Sugarbush. You can ski-in from Lower FIS or Snowflake and the slopes are short walk (approximately 1/2 mile) to the base parking lot/shuttle. It backs up to Lockwood Brook and 20+ acres of Sugarbush owned land.
During Winter Months the Mad River Valley runs free shuttles from Mount Ellen to Lincoln Peak to Shopping in Irasville/Waitsfield and many stops in between!
Please note that a 4WD/AWD vehicle with snow tires or all season tires with good tread and rated for snow is HIGHLY recommended during and just after winter storms, until the roads have been plowed and sanded.
There are security cameras in several spots around the outside of the property and garage. No cameras inside the house.
There is also a Tiny House (https://www.vrbo.com/7559212ha?unitId=6984416) on the property (not included with this rental, see separate listing for rates and availability) that can house up to two adults. It is several years old, thus has many 5 star reviews.
After booking on HomeAway, the Host will send the Guest a separate confirmation and rental contract spelling out the terms of the rental. Credit card info will be requested, and only used in the case of damage to the rental during Guest’s stay.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3.5 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Wonderful home!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time in this beautiful home. Plenty of space for 5 of us. Everyday someone would mention how much they loved the house. The kitchen had all we needed including a view. The beds and linens were great. We would definitely stay again.
