Girl's trip

We had a lovely stay! The space was perfect for our group of 4 moms looking for a peaceful getaway. The host was very responsive. Only note for those visiting, rideshares (Uber and otherwise) are few and far between. Schedule ahead! We'd definitely stay again :)

Awesome Ski House - Great for Multiple Families

This is a great house for multiple families as there are three separate floors. Everything you could need was provided, the beds were very comfortable, and the entire house and everything in it was extremely clean. The close proximity to Butternut was also a major plus. Shay was a great host and the communication was excellent. Anytime I had a question he responded quickly. I would stay at this house again in a second. Looking forward to the next time!

Beautiful clean, home minutes from SKI Butternut!

We enjoyed staying at the house with our friends/family. Easy check in, Shay was very attentive to any questions, and the check in directions were seamless. House was clean and fun for all. Also, about 10 minutes to Ski Butternut, 30 min from Catamount, and 15 to drive into town! Overall, 5 star stay!
