This was a perfect spot for a night out in Burlington! Amazing location. Lots to do in the area. The apartment was bigger than I expected and we had plenty of room to relax after a long day out. Any question I had Laura was quick to answer.

Low key, out of the way spot within close driving distance to Burlington downtown and campus. Ideal place if you’re in town for a show or to see your college kids for break. Check in was easy and the host was quick to reply. Definitely recommend.

Loved this place. Very clean and had everything we needed for a short or long stay. I will definitely be staying here again because it is close to the city of Burlington and not a far drive from ski resorts.

A great spot to stay for a Vermont getaway weekend! Laura was friendly and easy to communicate with. The location is close to 88 for easy access to other parts of the state, but the center of Winooski had everything we needed as well! A nice quiet neighborhood with clear instructions on how to access the space. The apartment was clean and tidy and had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. Would highly recommend Laura’s place in Winooski!

Laura was a great host! Friendly, helpful, easy to communicate with! The rental was perfect for myself and my friend as a basecamp to rest and catch up while visiting to Burlington to deal with some family matters. Great location and truly beautiful views over Winooski and Burlington!
