1820 Federal Style Home located on the beautiful Black River

Stayed here the week my son got married. He lives in North Springfield and the wedding was at The Inn at Weathersfield. The location was perfect, just 3 miles from my son and only one mile from the Inn. Had to go back and forth multiple times, so this was super convenient. The house is large and has been updated with modern conveniences, but still maintains it's original charm!

I loved everything about this house - the layout, the space, the history, the location. I booked this house almost a year ago as a birthday present to myself for my 60th birthday in June. My husband, son and his wife, and precious 5-year old granddaughter were able to join us, and my birthday was just about everything I could have hoped for. The house itself was perfect for us - space to spread out, a fully equipped kitchen for cooking, a long dining table to enjoy meals together, two separate living areas, and a lovely backyard for birdwatching and listening to the rush of the Black River below. The beds were comfortable and the bedrooms spacious. We appreciated the laundry room, since we were at the house for a week. We also waded in the bracing waters of the river's edge just below the bridge several times and admired the beautiful river rocks. Perkinsville is within easy driving distance of so many places to explore. We drove all over Vermont, from Windsor to Rutland, and Burlington to Brattleboro, but concentrated mostly on the Windsor County area. We went to Bookstock in Woodstock, the strawberry festival at Wellwood Orchards, learned about maple syrup production at Sugarbush Farms, toured several old houses, had fabulous meals and drinks, including an excellent dinner at the Weatherfield Inn for my birthday, and hunted down every independent bookstore we could find. We even saw a bear from a safe distance in a cemetery. It was the trip of a lifetime.

Our overall stay was amazing. Beautiful place with everything you need for a short stay! Cynthia was very easy to reach when I needed help with something and was a joy to talk to. We thank you for the welcomed stay!

We loved our stay in the 1820 House! We are two families, 4 adults and 4 children ages 5-15. We came to go skiing at Magic Mountain in Londonderry, which was about a 30 minute drive from the house. This was easily the best outfitted rental house I've ever stayed in, in terms of kitchen supplies and cookware (we cook a lot!). It was great to have the two bathrooms AND two living rooms for different TV watching/reading preferences of our group. The bed configuration was perfect for us. My only wish was that it was easier to walk around the area--the road is busy and there's no sidewalk or bike lane, but we did find a path to a hiking trail that followed the Black River, which was beautiful in the snow! Also nighttime traffic could be loud at times, but just because the house is so close to the road. Beds were comfortable and everything worked great! Highly recommend. Also easy drives to Ludlow, Woodstock and Ascutney.
