About this cottage rental
Immaculately kept and furnished guest cottage next door to the main house on a 10-acre property with a private pond a short walk downhill past the main house. In summer, enjoy the private pond with sandy beach and bottom for great swimming, kayaking for kids, rowboat, rafts and floats. Volleyball, badminton and other lawn activities. Hike, bike, or walk to enjoy and the beautiful mountain streams, views, and hiking trails. In winter, short drives to four nearby downhill ski slopes: Sugarbush, Mount Ellen, Mad River Glen, and Middlebury Snow Bowl and two nearby cross-country ski centers: Rikert at the Middlebury College Breadloaf campus and Blueberry Lake in Warren.
Ideal for family of four or romantic couple. Guests under age 21 must be accompanied by at least one adult over age 25. FIBER OPTIC INTERNET service. Check-in time: after 4:00 PM; check-out time: before 11:00 AM. Sorry, no smoking and no pets.
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR SUMMER: August is usually drought time in Central Vermont when streams have dried up and the water level in ponds is low. The swimming end of my pond is normally 14 feet deep, so even when the water level is down three or four feet the pond is still swimmable.
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR WINTER: a 4-wheel drive vehicle, or at least a front-wheel drive vehicle with snow tires, is necessary to avoid problems on steep local roads.

What a special place. Mary was a fantastic host. The house is charming, secluded, comfortable, clean, and felt like home. The property is beautiful - incredible views, sounds and smells, and we really loved our night at the fire pit. Plenty of fun sights to see and places to eat nearby. Just a magical weekend.

Mary was an excellent host and her cottage is perfect. I wish I could live in it. I stayed for 2 months and Mary was extremely accommodating with everything I needed. She lent me snowshoes, provided extra parking spaces when I had friends, came over quickly when I needed help with anything, and was generally a great host and neighbor. It was a perfect solo ski rental, but allowed me to accommodate 2-5 friends for a weekend super comfortably. With 6 adults it may get tight after 2-3 days, but 4 adults would be very comfortable because the loft has some privacy. The loft would be great for kids. The cottage is insanely cute and you will not regret staying here. The kitchen has everything you need, all of the beds have plenty of linens, tons of towels, everything was clean, the stoves keep you warm, there are laundry machines, and a clean bathroom with good water pressure and hot water is always available. The cottage also has a cassette player with about 20 tapes, plus puzzles and books. Sugarbush is a 20 minute drive away, Killington is about 45. There are tons of things (book shop/bakeries/saunas) to explore year round, plus lots I want to come back for in the summer (swimming holes and hikes). I have AWD and snow tires and had no issues all winter except for a couple instances during early spring / mud season where the road the house is on was tricky. Snow tires are definitely needed for winter. Mary gave me some salt and provided a shovel.11/10 rental experience!
