Lovely Stay

Very very nice. Warm. Great kitchen. Comfortable beds. Owner was relaxed, totally accessible as needed, and sent nice emails leading up to rental plus had a bottle of wine waiting for us on the table when we arrived. Fenced in yard for dog. Fun game room for our kids. Would love to see in summer as the back porch looked wonderful! Walkable to the little downtown.

Great stay, great house.

We stayed in this charming house during the winter holiday break. We had our family from Europe visiting with the children during that time. They are passionate skiers that decided to give US East Coast mountains a try. The house has a perfect location between two ski areas, Killington and Okemo. It is located on the main road in Wallingford with easy access to restaurants and shops. House itself has a great layout with lots of room for everyone. We enjoyed a specious kitchen and cozy living room with gas fireplace after long hours on slopes. Children especially loved the game room with air hockey, pool table and TV set in it. It was a little too cold to fully take advantage of the fenced in back yard with fire pit but our little dog had a blast running around in there. Christopher was vey helpful and very responsive to our questions about the house and area. Overall both our families had a great time and loved the house. We would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area with children and dogs.

Wonderful escape from the city.

The house is clean, organized and cozy. All mattresses, pillow and towels are soft and smells good. This place is a great escape from the city. Our friends enjoyed the play room, the wifi are fast. TV everywhere. We brought Karaoke,Nintendo Switch, we watch Netflix and more. We been stranded for 1 day due to bad weather. Christopher the owner was a very nice host. He is pleasant and very helpful. We will definitely stay in this place again. Thank you so much Christopher for allowing us to extend our stay and keeping us safe due to winter storm. Location is very convenient to stores, grocery, gas station, ski, hiking, lake and restaurant.

Excellent stay for a nice weekend in Vermont.

The house was incredible and had so many amenatities. The table games were fun, the TVs all over the house and the location was great as well. The house was beautiful and when we walked in we were already looking up dates for another stay. Chris was a nice host and we would absolutely stay at this location again.

Fabulous rental in Wallingford convenient to many Vermont sites

We have stayed in many different places in Vermont and this was by far my favorite rental. It was convenient to most of the places we enjoy visiting in Vermont. The house was very clean with lots of space for a large family. It's well laid out and the beds are very comfy. My in-laws were able to shut off the living room downstairs to make it a fourth bedroom and not have to deal with the stairs. We had all the supplies we could possibly need and if we needed anything the owner is next door and willing to help. We were there during a rare hot week for Vermont and the owner put window AC units in all the bedrooms which we really appreciated. The detached game room looked like a fun place to hang out and had two extra beds but unfortunately it was too hot for us to use while we were there. We did enjoy the porch and pool table on the porch. I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed this house! We would definitely stay here or one of the owner's other rentals again.

Perfect for our family

I chose this house for the screened in porch and it was a great choice. We LIVED out there - ate nearly every meal, napped, read, played and relaxed. It was our favorite part of the house. There's also a really nice courtyard with a fire pit and small dipping pool that was lovely. The large backyard behind the house also made for a great place for our dogs and one year old to play. The house itself is nice. It's an old Vermont house that's been tastefully redone and although it's not perfectly clean (there are a few cob webs here and there) it's well kept and the minor imperfections are easily overlooked. It's got a lot of charm and we loved the layout. Plus it's on the main drag in Wallingford which makes it convenient to walk to a restaurant (or two), the library (on a rainy day, our son LOVED the kids section) and a convenience store. Nearby (as in a 5 minute drive) there's fly fishing, lots of walking trails, a small lake and a playground. Chris, the owner, lives next door and owns Made In Vermont, a beautiful store filled with lighting from Hubberton Forge but also includes other Vermont-made products like handmade soaps and candles, furniture and jewelry. He was a great resource and host - he welcomed us with a huge stack of organic pumpkin rhubarb muffins. We stayed a week and wished we had stayed two.

The Wedding Weekend House

We used Christopher's house in Wallingford as our "Wedding House" for a weekend. My daughter married the love of her life at the Wallingford Lodge and this house was perfect for the bride and groom, family, and friends to get ready for the wedding as well as an escape from the craziness of wedding setup. The house is conveniently located to restaurants and shops in Wallingford. The house is beautifully decorated, updated, meticulously clean with lots of room for relaxing with friends, playing pool, dipping your toes in the spring fed pool, cooking meals, you name it! Some of the groom's family also rented a house from Christopher and it was great to open the back gate to visit back and forth. The screened in porch provided extra living space and kept out the pesky Vermont bugs. The dog kennel in the basement was a hugh plus and Cedar June stayed cool and safe while we were out of the house. The only improvement I can think of is to have some grass within the fenced in area for the dog. Christopher was communicative and very flexible with our needs. I whole heartedly recommend this house to anyone spending some time in the area.

We absolutely loved it!

Our stay in Wallington was wonderful! The house is conveniently located near shops and is just a 25 minute drive from Okemo Mountain. The house is clean, organized, and spacious. There were 8 of us, (all adults,) who fit very comfortably with room to spare. We enjoyed playing pool and air hockey in the game room. We also enjoyed sitting outside by the fire. The house had all necessary amenities for cooking. The bedrooms had clean and comfortable bedding and the bathrooms were stocked with wash clothes, hand towels, and bath towels. Christopher was extremely accommodating and always available when needed. I can not say enough good things about our stay here! We will surely return!
