Stop looking, this is the place!

This rental is a 3 story house in a charming complex. The decks look out over a farm pasture and across to the mountains. The interior is immaculate country charm. Very spacious and has every thing you need. Towels, linens, soap, shampoo and conditioner, paper towels, I even found a bag of elastic bands, coffee grinder, even a night light in the kids room! Each bed has a pillow topper and the sheets are so soft I want them. The pillows were not too puffy or too skinny (this is a big one for me!). The fireplaces was prepped and ready to go. Its a casual stroll to the center of Manchester or a 2 minute drive. We just arrived home last night and my toddler is already saying he wants to go back to the Vermont home. This rental was far beyond our expectations and one of the best rentals we have ever stayed in. My suggestion to the owners: - a light blocking shade in the kids room. The lower window we had to cover with a towel. - upstairs king bed is hard, could use a new one or some more substantial pillow topper. Thank you for the wonderful vacation! J

The perfect place for our Christmas Holiday

We stayed for a month in Bob and Carol's home and enjoyed every minute of it. Bob was there to greet us and show us around and we instantly felt at home. On the first floor my teenage daughter had her own living room, bedroom and bathroom which she loved. On the second floor is the lounge, kitchen and dining area which are beautifully presented and overlook a field to the rear of the house, which gives you a very peaceful and private outlook. Our master bedroom was on the third floor together with a twin room and a bathroom, our bed was ultra comfy. The house is immaculate, the kitchen well stocked and the bed linens are beautiful. We bought some bird food from the local store and were amazed at the variety of birds we saw on the balcony. There were Red Cardinals, Jays, Woodpeckers just to name a few and we spent many hours watching the cheeky squirrels playing in the snow. Town is only a few minutes walk so even on the coldest days we managed to get out and about. we had lunch at Cilantro, Mulligans, The Works, Spiral Press and Al Ducci's and dinner at Gringo Jacks, The Reluctant Panther and The Silver Fork all were very good. We particularly enjoyed buying fresh fish from Earth and Sea, picking up a good bottle of wine from Manchester Beverages and going back to the house and cooking some great meals. Manchester is pretty central for travelling, we did day trips to Killington, Woodstock, Ludlow, Chester and Bennington and a couple of over night stays in Quebec City and Stowe, we really loved the whole area. We did many Trail Walks, our favourite was Lye Brook Falls and Prospect Rock, amazing views up there. Our daughter enjoyed shopping at the outlets, so much so, we had to buy another suitcase to get it all back home. We will always have great memories of our Christmas time in this lovely home. Thank you for having us Bob and Carol and we hope to see you again sometime soon.

Lovely home, truly walkable to town

Bob and Carol were wonderful hosts greeting us when we arrived and giving us a tour of the condo. Everything was beautifully maintained and a fire ready to go in the fireplace. Many listings that describe themselves as a ten minute walk anywhere really mean a 20 minute walk or a ten minute jog but this home really is walkable to town and just down the road from some cute restaurants and shops. The home is flooded with light, the only downside of this being that the bedrooms are completely light as soon as the sun rises as the blinds are purely for privacy and not light blocking, but with the beautiful views outside who wants to sleep in? The home is particularly wonderful with children. We had a wonderful stay and hope to return again!

Perfect Getaway home

This was a perfect ski getaway location. The owners, Bob and Carol, met our family (2 adults and 2 children) when we arrived and couldn't have been more helpful in getting us acquainted with their lovely home. This home is very well maintained--spotless-- and well equipped especially the kitchen. All the linens are new and the bedding is of high quality. The location of their home is perfect--walking distance to Manchester's outlets and a short drive to Bromley. Just a few recommendations: A small dresser in the guest room is needed. A blow dryer for your guests in the main bathroom upstairs. Additional firewood for the fire. Other than that it was a very well maintained beautiful house to stay in. I almost don't want to go on and on because I would like to keep it our little "hidden gem" in Vermont! We are looking forward to staying there again!

Could not have asked for anything more!

This was just a lovely home - everything was top notch! My husband & I were met at the house by the owners who gave us a tour and gave us information about the workings of the home. Three other friends met us later that day, and they were equally impressed. The house was very nicely furnished/equipped throughout, comfortable and so clean! We only cooked breakfasts, but the kitchen had everything we needed (and more). Carol & Bob were delightful and very easy to work with. Our group will be retuning in February and can't wait!!! Thanks so much!

Great Location - clean & comfortable

Perfect location for skiing at Bromley and strolling through Manchester. The house was very clean and comfortable. My family especially enjoyed the living room with its fireplace and beautiful views of the mountains. The layout and size was perfect for our family which included my husband, two children & mother-in-law. It was great to have the family room and third bedroom on the lower level. The owners were very easy to work with. We definitely hope to return again!

Wonderful property

We loved our rental finding it exactly as described and more. Furnishings were comfortable and beautiful; appliances were in great shape and working order; everything was very clean and we'll maintained. Since we cooked in many nights we appreciated the well outfitted kitchen and the empty cupboard that allowed us to stow away our foodstuffs. The owners were responsive and helpful. The only suggestion would be to include a dresser or table with mirror in the king bedroom upstairs. Since we shared the bath with two teenage girls we would have appreciated another space for hair dryers and toiletries. We would definitely recommend this property

Excellent Manchester Home

I stayed at this house with my family over president's week to relax in Vermont and ski at the local resorts. We were 4 adults and 3 children and the house fit us all comfortably. The extra area and TV downstairs was great for the kids to chill out after a day of skiing while the adults relaxed by the fire. The location is perfect for a stroll in to town for dinner, drinks or shopping. Bob, the owner, was extremely welcoming and made a special effort to ensure our stay was perfect. Thank you!

Weekend Stay in Manchester Center

We were four couples who traveled to Manchester from Maine and Alaska, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The VRBO website describes the rental very well, and the pictures represent the charming unit accurately. Although it is described as a house, it is actually a condo unit in a development. The condos each stand alone, and do not share walls with the adjacent units, making for peace and quiet. There are lovely views of the mountains. Parking is somewhat limited, and as we had four cars, some had to park a short distance away, but that was not a real problem. The owner met us and gave us a tour, and had laid the wood for a fire in the living room fireplace - very thoughtful, but we were too busy to take advantage of this nice feature. The three floor condo provided plenty of room for the eight of us to spread out comfortably. The unit was immaculate and very well-stocked, and we prepared breakfast there each day. We walked into town for coffee and shopping. I have only small suggestions to improve this rental. It would be helpful to have more bath towels available when renting to a party of eight, as we had some difficulty finding enough for each of us to have one towel. Also, the bedroom with two twins could use a chair or two, as we had to place our things on the floor. Guests should also bring their own bar soap for the showers, which we did, as none is provided. Other than these small suggested improvements, I would highly recommend this rental!
