Vermont stay

Our large group had a great time. There was something for everyone between downtown Manchester and Bromley mountain. The house was great and could accommodate everyone comfortably. It was great to have a full kitchen for meals and a large living room and dining room for seating and hanging out.

Wildwood family

We were 4 families and a bit uneasy about how things would be when we got there. The owners were very friendly and accomodating, while the house itself had a charm only a guest could appreciate. It was perfect from the large living room and fireplace to the dining room which allowed 19 of us to dine together truly creating a long lasting memory. The setting was perfect, we will definitely be back.

Wonderful stay

We all enjoyed our stay at the reunion house. Our family group consisted of 13 adults and our dogs. We all had a wonderful time. Melissa was very quick to answer our questions. The grounds are beautiful. The home is not far from the lovely town of Manchester. Although the home could use some updating, this didn’t impact our wonderful stay. We would love to vacation there again in the future.

The Wilburton Inn was THE perfect place to host our friends and family for our destination wedding! We planned our wedding with the idea that it would be a reunion with a wedding thrown in. And the Wilburton Inn provided the perfect accommodation to make that a reality. We rented 2 homes (1 for a large group of friends and another for family). People arrived throughout the week and we met to play kickball, swim in the pool (the kids loved it!) and connect at the fire pit. Farm Night was a delightful pre-wedding gathering event with delicious fresh food and stunning scenery. Not only did Wilburton provide accommodations for large groups but wedding guests arriving in 2's and 3's could also stay in the Inn. Most of our guests were at arms length which allowed us to spend time with people before and after the wedding. A blessing! And we could easily get to our wedding site within minutes. We will be returning to Wilburton for years to come!

Room for everyone, but expected more

We rented this house for a family reunion ski weekend. Three brothers and their families for a total of 18. First, the owners & innkeepers were very friendly and responsive. We had an issue with the hot water and it was fixed within 30 minutes. However, the house is dated. Judging by the wood paneling, pink & yellow bathroom fixtures, and aqua Formica kitchen counters It was probably last renovated in the 60s-70s. I wish I had known what to expect. There was nothing ‘wrong’ just not what we expected, given the amount of rent we paid.

Great place for a family event

!4 of us spent 2 nights at the Reunion House while attending a wedding. There were 8 adults and 6 under 17. Everyone had a comfortable bed. The kitchen had ample plates, glasses and cutlery. The large dining-living room was a good gathering spot. The grounds are spacious and contain many curiosities.

Perfect location and property for Family Holiday

We have been coming to this location for years with multiple family members. We always have a fantastic time and the house is well equipped for multi-generations. The main living area is huge and open so we can all sit around the fireplace after dinner and interact with each other. Next to the house is a great little hill where the kids have spent hours sleigh riding while we watch them from the house. Melissa is a pleasure to work with when setting up our annual weekend.

Absolultey Fabulous Weekend!!!

I just got back from one of the best girl's weekends I have ever had! There were 12 of us adult women, a five year old, eighteen month year old and a one year old. I had contacted Melissa a month or two ago and she guided me through the different houses on the property and helped me come to the conclusion that The Reunion House was the perfect choice for what we had in mind. Well let me tell you, she was spot on. From the moment we all walked through the door, we knew immediately we were in for a weekend that would go down in the record books. The house is immaculate, each bedroom cuter than the next. The true star of the house is the living room. It is HUGE with the most comfy couches you'll ever lounge on, a wood burning fireplace and it is adjacent to the farmhouse dining room table. We spent every waking moment on those couches and around that dining table when we were "home". The house surpassed our needs in so many ways. The grounds are gorgeous and meticulously maintained. Melissa and her family run a class-act operation. A few of us ate breakfast in The Mansion House the day we (sadly) left and it was out of this world! We wished we ate there every morning! And the location is perfect, so close to the Village of Manchester and it's quaint shops and fabulous outlets! We even took a ride to The Vermont Country Store one day. There is so much to do and see in Manchester and the surrounding Villages and staying at The Wilburton Inn allows you easy access to all. Do yourselves a favor and stop looking at other options in Manchester. Book any of the houses or individual rooms at The Wilburton Inn and you will not be disappointed.

Great place for a large group

We had 4 families with kids staying in this magnificent home. The staff was super helpful and professional and the house was very well appointed. Town of Manchester had a few nice restaurants and we were 30 minutes away from Stratton and 20 minutes from Bromley. Will definitely stay here or on other properties managed by Manchester Inn again.

Amazing Weekend Getaway

The Willburton Inn was exactly what our group of 17 friends were looking for when we planned our long weekend ski trip up to Vermont to get away from busy Boston. The staff and owners are very friendly and the Reunion house (the house we stayed in) was everything we were looking for. We had a wonderful weekend, thank you Willburton Inn!

Great place for a reunion, or large parties

We are a non-profit organization of young snowboarders and skiiers who travel in groups of 20-25 to VT for our yearly retreat. The house can comfortably accommodate 20+ guests, with a layout that allows for everyone to spend time together in one area. It's fairly close to the shops and village and about 20-30 minutes from Stratton Mountain. With plenty of bathrooms, everyone had quick access to the shower after a long run on the slopes and there's plenty of parking. We enjoyed staying at this house so much that we came back for the second time this year! We recommend this house for large groups, families with children, family reunions and group retreats!

Had a great time here for a 3 day science retreat

We are a group of cell biologists from Yale university who spend a memorable four day science retreat at this property. The house has accommodated 17 of our members (with some people sharing double beds). The living room was spacious and perfect for our science presentation (we brought our own white board); the house was also cosy enough so everyone spend a lot of time together. Our host was kind enough to bring us extra lighting for the presentation. We took advantage of the on-site tennis court for a lab tennis match. A big shopping mall was close by so we could shop for several days food easily. Hiking route was also in easy driving distance. Melissa, our host, has been very welcoming and helpful. Thank you Melissa! I would highly recommend this place for similar science retreat, or other team building activities.

Big Winter Getaway

Last winter, my family and I ventured up to Manchester Vermont for a family skiing adventure. We were fortunate to find this property, which worked out wonderfully for everyone. We live in Boston and were looking for a country getaway which was still comfortable, where we could stay as a family and be close to the mountain but also go out to great restaurants and do fun things in town. This place was just that. Big enough to fit everybody, deluxe enough to please my inlaws, kid friendly to let us borrow sleds. And the owner, who also runs the Wilburton Inn, catered a delightful banquet which was the perfect conclusion to our vacation and the perfect start to the new year. I highly reccommend the expereince.
