We arrived and the key pad was dead. Tried the code a few times and then called the emergency number and it took approximately 10 minutes or so to be able to get in. During our stay a guy on a tractor started doing something to the road, which made the entrance quite difficult to get up to leave due to the loose gravel and ruts he made. We found batteries in a drawer and figured out how to change them to make the door lock work. The air conditioner in the basement was supposed to have a remote control, but we couldn’t find it and it wasn’t working when we arrived. Discovered that the gfi was tripped and after resetting it it was working but the controls on the unit didn’t seem to do anything.

VT Graduation Gathering
This was the perfect place for parents and grandparents to stay for VT Graduations! We were able to gather for multiple dinners, enjoys each others company and avoid the hustle and bustle around the campus traffic. We made some great memories during our short and sweet visit.

Motorcycle Trip
Visited and rode the twisty roads that surround this area. This place is just amazing. I’ll be back with my wife. Over a mile from the paved road on 50 acres. It’s gorgeous , serene and I didn’t want to leave. It’s probably my favorite rental so far over the years. The house is great and accommodating as well. Plenty of room and bathrooms. Everything you need in the kitchen. You won’t regret coming here. Great place!!
