About this property

Comfy, Family-Friendly Chalet in the woods

Escape to By the Brook – A Charming Vermont Chalet
Discover the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation at By the Brook, a peaceful 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom chalet tucked away on a private road, just 10 minutes from Mount Snow and 5 minutes from downtown Wilmington and Dover. Whether you're hitting the slopes, exploring scenic trails, or unwinding by the fire, this inviting retreat is designed for making memories.

Outdoor Adventures & Local Charm
Vermont isn’t just for winter! In warmer months, explore nearby golf courses (just 2 and 4 miles away), scenic hiking and biking trails, and refreshing swimming holes. Lake Whitingham and Lake Raponda offer boating, fishing, and serene waterfront views. Stroll through charming boutiques, antique shops, and outlet stores, then indulge in the incredible local food, brewery, and live music scene.

The Space
Step into a cozy yet spacious haven where nature meets comfort. The main floor features an open-concept living area with a wall of windows, a crackling corner fireplace, and a plush sectional perfect for lounging. The dining table seats 8–10, and the well-equipped kitchen—with its warm pine backsplash—has everything you need to cook for your crew.

Venture outside to the wraparound deck, perched high among the trees with stunning seasonal views. Enjoy a cup of coffee in one of the Adirondack chairs, gather around a fire table under the stars, and let the soothing sounds of the brook below set the tone for your stay.

The middle floor hosts three comfortable bedrooms, a full bath, laundry facilities, and a separate entrance—ideal for families or groups. The lower level is all about fun, with darts, foosball, ping pong, a Pac-Man arcade game, and a TV—perfect for winding down after a day of adventure.

Sleeping Arrangements:
Main floor: 1 queen bedroom
Middle floor: 2 queen bedrooms, 1 bedroom with a full bed + bunk beds.
Three full bathrooms, one on each level for added convenience and privacy.

Pet-Friendly
We know how special it is to travel with your four-legged friend! Dogs (sorry, no cats) are welcome with prior notice and a pet fee, which helps ensure the home is fresh and ready for the next guests.

About the host

Hosted by Cristin Flannery

Host profile image
We live in central CT, but have been traveling to and dreaming of owning in Vermont for many many years. We love this house for our family and friends, but also to share the Vermont way of life with you.

We're happy to answer any and all questions, not only about the home, but to help you create a memorable trip to VT.

Why they chose this property

Wilmington is the perfect little town for us to escape from the hustle and bustle. Our street is very quiet and peaceful, but not a long drive to get to the action on the mountain, the trails, the water, or the golf course.
And did we mention the awesome food and breweries around?!

Wilmington gives you the full Vermont lifestyle without having to drive too too far north! It's perfect for a quick getaway any time of the year while still offering enough to do for a full week or extended stay.

What makes this property unique

Our house is the perfect mix of classic Vermont living with modern decor and coziness.
Rustic, but not too rustic; we hope our guests can relish in the getaway life while also feeling like they aren't 'roughing it' too much.
The woodburning fireplace brings a cozy vibe while you snuggle on the couch and look outside the wall of windows to the treetops.

This house is perfect for one large family or two families to share for a fun vacation! The home has 4 bedrooms (3 queens, plus a full and set of bunks in the 4th). There are also 3 full bathrooms so everyone can have the privacy they need.

The basement has a ping pong table, foosball, darts, a TV, and a Pac-Man arcade game! Fun for adults and kids alike!
