Perfect for a multi-family ski trip!
This place was great for our large group of 6 young families; plenty of bedrooms and space for hanging out, but enough separation for everyone to feel comfortable. The house is incredibly close to Sugarbush mountain (2 min drive), but we used the seasonal shuttle which worked perfectly for our large ski group. The host was also very communicative and quick to respond to inquiries. Will definitely plan a large ski trip here again next year!

Holiday ski getaway
We were a large group that rented the entire property. Overall a great option for multiple families to be together and have some space apart. Location to mountain was perfect. Unit 3 was far and away the nicest. We enjoyed fires every night (plenty of wood provided) and kitchen was great for making family style meals. Hot tubs needed more maintenance and unit 2 had a compressor literally attached to a bedroom wall that was very noisy.

Perfect for large groups
The Mad House was such an incredible spot for large groups. We had 25 adults and 16 kids at one point of the weekend. Not everyone stayed the night but everyone who did had a bed (kids on air mattresses) and plenty of bathrooms. The commons spaces were beautiful. We had a fire in the fireplace one morning and everyone came in for breakfast, it was so relaxing and enjoyable. Highly recommend to any family or group of friends. We were able to put the kids to bed and monitors reached in every location throughout the 3 units. There was a fire pit and large flat area for the kids to run around. Hoping to make this an annual event with friends and family.

Summer of 2024
This property was perfect for us, we rented the entire Mad House for our stay. Our group consisted of men, women and teens. Teens took La Pasta, moms took Orsini & Dads got The Common Man. Each unit was tailor made for our needs, we couldn't have asked for anything more.
The property was super clean, tastefully decorated and very well stocked with kitchen and bathroom essentials. The hot tubs added to the fun. The property manager was very responsive and we had a great time.
I wouldn't think twice about renting this property twice in the future. We had a great vacation!

Outstanding House for Large groups
The check in process was super clear and easy and they even shared a few things that were wrong with that property ahead of time to give us a heads up which was great. All the issues were minor and none impacted our stay whatsoever. The entire house and property was super clean and they provide everything for you from a fully stocked kitchen with tons of cookware, utensils and glasses, garbage bags, to towels for all bathrooms and bedrooms and even towels for the hot tub. We honestly had zero complaints and would highly recommend the Mad House. Everyone of our guests was super impressed and I think each one FaceTimed someone to show them the house.
