About this house rental
Occupancy & Fire Safety
The house can comfortably sleep up to 15 people.
However, Vermont fire safety law now limits short-term rental occupancy to 8 guests unless a sprinkler system is installed. (While this requirement may feel arbitrary—it was introduced only recently—I want guests to know that for over 20 years I’ve hosted friends and family of up to 15 people here without incident. The home is equipped with fire alarms in every room and three fire extinguishers for safety. Nevertheless, we are required to comply with current state regulations.)
For this reason, we can only approve up to 8 short-term guests.
Longer-term stays (such as monthly rentals) may legally accommodate up to 12 guests.
Any additional guests beyond these limits would be an unapproved use of the property and would be the sole responsibility of the guests.
Seasonal Fun
For those thinking ahead: This house is just as fun in the summer as in the winter. You’ll find endless activities—from hiking right at your doorstep, to jet skiing and boating, fishing, world-class golf, mountain biking at Mount Snow, and a wide variety of great restaurants.
