About this property

Privacy & nature. Lots of walking paths on many acres of land. Although it is secluded, you are only 2 miles from town with a convenient grocery store.
The private pond is clean and spring fed, so it is enjoyable for swimming, paddling, rowing or floating.
We are conveniently located 1.5 miles off the Interstate 91, so traveling is very easy to visit many places in the area.
The house used to be a late 1700's tavern for the settlers of the area to get a meal and room to sleep the night while traveling the Hinman Settlers Road.

Keywords: house, secluded, private, serenity.

Great house— really well- stocked and comfortable

Place is in great condition, with a large assortment of clean rooms and great beds. Kitchen VERY well-supplied. Near Glover (Bread & Puppet!!!) and West Glover ( Parker’s Pies). Large independent supermarket in Barton ten mins away. Enormous field for dogs to play. Owner was very responsive when we locked ourselves out on a Sunday!!

Lovely home, beautiful view

We had 4 adults and 2 kids, and there was more than plenty of space for all of us.The home was clean when we arrived, and everything we needed was available: towels, washcloths, kitchen towels, lots of kitchen ware (pots, dishes, utensils, appliances, dishsoap, sponge, etc.)As is the case with most homes in the winter, the air in the house can get pretty dry with the heat, so bring a humidifier if that is something that bothers you.There is plenty of outdoor space, though we didn't use any of the conveniences outside because we stayed through a cold front, but the view of the sunrise and the field behind the house is just gorgeous.Gail was responsive and easy to communicate with when we had any questions.Overall, we had a lovely stay.

Beautiful farmhouse

The house was really nice. The host took care to prepare the house for us and make our stay comfortable. She was very responsive, promptly answered all our questions. Would definitely recommend to friends and would definitely keep it on my list to revisit in summer and/or fall when we can see more of the area around.

Beautiful haven

Our third time here, we always leave with great reluctance. On the way home we stopped for breakfast at the tiny Busy Bee diner in Glover and had an excellent meal and good conversation with the owners and other customers. Parsons Dinner House is also excellent. Thanks for your hospitality, Gail.

A nice break in VT

The house was really clean, the kitchen has all the amenities you'll need and the beds were cozy with their flannel sheets. Craftsbury is only 40 minutes away for cross country skiing and Jay Peak is 45 minutes for downhill. Lots of hiking nearby, too. Of course, pizza from Parker's Pies, just two miles away is a must. The house had all you need for a relaxing holiday.

Perfect Family Gathering Place

Our family (6 adults and 1 toddler) really enjoyed our stay! There were plenty of bedrooms for all and the beds were very comfortable. The spacious living room and dining table gave us alot of room to gather together. The kitchen was stocked with everything needed to cook big family meals. We also spent alot of time outside at the fire pit and at the little pond. The outdoor space was very pleasant. All in all we highly recommend the Barton house.

Perfect for the eclipse

We rate this as one of our favorite places to stay, and we spent the day outside sledding, eating, and drinking. The eclipse didn’t disappoint, either. Beds and furniture are comfortable, and the kitchen had everything for us cooks.We enjoyed watching duck antics on the pond, and we saw a mink too. We found some good hiking, though mud season is on us. The dogs were able to romp freely without worry. Thank you, Gail, as always.

Barton Stay 2024

Loved that it was out in the country! The house was clean and the kitchen had plenty of cooking utensils, pots, and dishes for a large crowd! Beds were clean and comfortably along with bathrooms that were well stocked. The main downside was the misleading listing. It stated that there was air conditioning...there was one air-conditioner in one bedroom. Thankfully there were several fans! It also listed that there was a pool. No pool! Would have been nice because it was hot! Other than that, our stay was good! Great place for a little family get together.

Great location and outdoor space

Great location and outdoor space. It's not shown in the property listing pictures, but there is an awesome backyard space with a fire pit that we took advantage of to enjoy and outdoor dinner and star gazing. It was our favorite part of the rental. The house itself is older and has some slight renovations here and there (also, bed configurations shown in the property photos have since changed). Kitchen and dining room are a great place to gather the full group around (we had 14 people). Cons: bedrooms are small and mattresses are outdated. Very close by Parker Pies and the local supermarket, where were bonuses!

About the host

Hosted by Gail Vanasse

Why they chose this property

I grew up in this house with my 6 siblings. My husband and I purchased it from my parent's estate in 2007. We have had to make many repairs and improvements, but we love the charm, beauty, location, wildlife and serenity of it all!

What makes this property unique

I grew up here, and still live only about 20 minutes away. I can advise about the area, and I am on hand if any problems arise. It is nice to have a private pond and a low traffic road.
