About the host
Hosted by Peter Engelhardt
We purchased the property in 1997 and totally up-dated it. This is our second home for our family (including our 2 daughters and 6 grandchildren). Comfortable, yet decorated with some antiques appropriate for a 150-year old home. Although we just recently listed with vrbo, we have been renting for some 20 years. Our friends, who take care of the property, live only a 1/2 mile down the road. When you arrive, you find the door unlocked and the house warmed up.
Why they chose this property
Not a ski house. This genuine Vermont Farmhouse is totally modernized and located in a rural setting. But just minutes away from everything you need: gasoline; groceries and beverages; restaurants; and ski and bike service. You are 10 minutes from the Stratton Mountain Parking Garage; 20 minutes from Bromley; and 25 minutes from Magic Mountain.
What makes this property unique
We are on flat land. Wonderful road for walking along the Winhall River and biking. Rural setting but convenient to everything. 800 feet to hard surface roads. You can swim in our brook-fed pond. 1 mile down the road, there is grotto, where people swim in the Winhall River. There is a public swimming pool with covered building to grill and hang out. 2 miles from the house.
Golfing: Big facility up on Stratton Mountain - 10 minutes away. Windham Golf Course is 30 minutes away.
