There is enough space to park multiple trucks and trailers without any difficulty and unlimited room for your sleds.

ALPINE SKIERS: 20-25 minutes to Jay Peak depending on road conditions. Close enough to base-camp. Great place to unwind after a long powder day in front of a log fire(yes, a real one), in the hot tub or having a drink while shooting pool.

X-C SKIERS / SNOWSHOERS: Snow conditions permitting - XC trails on the 166 acres are at your disposal providing many kilometers thru quiet, snow-covered cedars or under majestic sleeping maples groves.

We had a great stay. The host was superb and attentive. Checking in and out (especially) was super easy. The house is beautiful, well setup, and has activities for every age. The grounds are huge. We had a great time cross country skiing and snowshoeing on the property. Highly recommended.

We have been booking places up in this area to go to Jay peak for years now. This place is by far the best place we have ever stayed. Would recommend this to anyone trying to have a great experience up north. Thank you to the amazing host as well. Very easy to communicate with and very nice!

Francesca was a wonderful host! She was quick to respond and extremely accommodating. The house was meticulously maintained with comfortable beds, top quality linens and towels and a fully stocked kitchen. The entire house was beautiful-even better in person than in the pictures.

We enjoyed our stay. The 6 bedrooms w/ bathrooms were a big plus for our grp of 12. Game room was awesome! Great view of lake; perfect for bucket golf which we played almost every day. Although the house had plenty of great features, there were some items that made our vacation less than perfect. 1. House does not have air conditioning! With the sun beating in and temps up to the 90’s, the house was terribly hot; downstairs bedroom reached mid 80’s every day & upstairs bedrooms approached 90 degrees! Ceiling & floor fans did not provide much relief. A/Cs would have solved this issue. 2. Refrigerator did not provide adequate space for 12 people. We had to use 4 coolers and purchase ice every day. There was a refrigerator in the basement, but was not usable. 3.There were hornet’s nests in several locations – behind several shutters in the deck area and near the stone wall. We couldn’t use the deck until I sprayed the nests. The presence of bees/hornets is not avoidable, treatment of the nesting areas is. 4. Two bedrooms had mattresses that were very uncomfortable – time to replace them. 5. The horse flies were unbearable. Any time spent in the yard meant you had to deal with being bit. Periodic fogging of the area would ensure renters do not have to deal with horse flies and mosquitos. This property/house would be perfect if these issues were addressed! All fixable(We would not call the pond swimmable; more like a bog, full of algae & frogs & gets deep quick)
