Exceeded Expectations

We came away from this spot so energized and pleased that it's hard to put it in writing. Evelyn was great helping us get ready for our stay. The house was immaculate, much cleaner than many hotels I've used. And it just has so much room. It's in the perfect spot - out of the way yet not too far away so you can get to a grocery store in a few minutes. Everyone said that they would like to come back for another stay.

Great house for family gathering

The downside: you bring your own sheets and towels. The upside: pretty much everything else. 3 bunk beds with 3, 3 and 4 beds plus a room with queen sized bed for the people in charge gives great flexibility for hosting people; the dining room table seats 12 and there are comfortable couches and a nice ski decor. We went in the summer; can't comment on how easy the driveway would be in the winter.

Loved it!

This is the second time that we have stayed in Evelyn’s cabin. We loved it so much the first time, we booked again. This last visit was for our son’s graduation from Norwich University; therefore, I don’t know when the next time we’ll return to Vermont. If and when we do come back for a visit, I’ll be contacting Evelyn again. Thank you, Evelyn! You’ve made the VRBO experience extremely smooth and easy.

Great house, great location

This is a great ski house. It was just my daughter and me staying here. The house was very clean and comfy. Plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen was well stocked with all the pots/pans/utensils/appliances you need. Checkin process and owner communication was easy. It is very close to Waitsfield shops and restaurants. You will definitely need AWD/4WD to get up the dirt road to the house, it was pretty muddy when we were there. I would rent this place again.

Boys weekend golf getaway

We are repeat customers for this property and very much enjoy the location, close to downtown Waitsfield, and to Sugarbush. Evelyn is a very gracious host and it is very easy to communicate, check in and the area. We love the space for many people to spread out, has a great deck off the kitchen to hang out on with a grill. There is plenty of room to handle a larger crown around the living room and dining area. It is a pleasure to be able to rent this property and we will definitely be back. Thank you Evelyn!!

Graduation celebration

We were in Vermont for my son's graduation from college. We ended up having a total of 9 people in our group staying with us. The chalet was well equipped and suitable for our needs. Evelyn and her son Jeff were easy to communicate with and very responsive. Only downside were the beds, but that's most places. Would definitely stay here (possibly in two years when my other son graduates) Derek

About the host

Hosted by Evelyn Pitt

I grew up in Albany, NY and have lived here all my life. I went to high school in Schenectady, NY and to the Empire State College for a four year degree. I have been an avid skier at Mad River Glen for years and have skied the West and Europe on several occasions.

Why they chose this property

My husband and I skied Mad River Glen and loved it (we still do). My two sons grew up skiing there every weekend and holiday week all wiinter. My son (Jeffrey) still uses it most of the winter with his family. We decided to build a duplex with another couple; they were not quite ready, so we built in a single family Swiss Chalet in 1964. It was our builders first house. This property was part of land owned by the builder's family (Richard Brothers); they also sold land to the Green Mountain Valley School and several other lots on our 'hill'. We have always loved it and keep upgrading it.

What makes this property unique

The views from the living room decided us. We could see Sugarbush, Sugarbush North and Mad River Glen all from our front windows!!! That sold us on the property.
