We stayed here during a ski trip to Jay Peak, it’s only a 20min drive to the mountain. Very secluded and quiet, a perfect spot to relax after a day at the hill. The hosts are very communicative and the apartment has all the amenities you will need for a great stay.
We had a great weekend here. We enjoyed the spacious apartment and loved the coffee and treats left behind. The hosts were very responsive and helpful. Great location. We definitely needed to have an AWD vehicle at the time due to snow melt and muddy roads! Great stay…thank you!
We had a great time. Stayed for 5 weeks. Clean property, very bright and sunny. It was about 15-20 minutes from Jay peak so it works very well for a ski vacation. Friendly family upstairs.
Difficult to review this property as the listing is mostly at fault.
Let's start with the positives: Property was clean, in good condition, and the area was fantastic. Plentiful nature and stars, and the air was clean. The hosts were friendly and getting there was easy.
Now onto the negatives: Firstly, the "Entire Apartment" is easily misinterpreted. I certainly thought we were getting the whole property to ourselves. This is NOT the case. You get the downstairs and the hosts live upstairs. Nowhere in the listing does it say this, and so it was rather shocking. Next, they have dogs, whom barked for nearly an hours upon our arrival. They are upstairs, so you hear the dogs and people walking and moving about. The property is NOT soundproofed. We heard action movies being played upstairs at night, as well as all the movement. This was rather upsetting as we expected a quiet stay. Because the property is shared, we also couldn't close the upstairs lights at night so you have to walk a bit away from the property to enjoy the stars. My last negative is the toilet, which was rather small and a little low to the ground. I'm rather tall so it was difficult to sit on it. The water pressure for the shower was low but that could be due to the area so I can't fault them for it.
My advice to owners: Change listing to include mention of shared house, I would say "Downstairs apartment". Install a bit of soundproofing and a new larger toilet and this would be a 5/5.

Nice place, well appointed and very clean! Excellent communication from owners and easy check in. Beautiful location in rural Vermont close to Jay Peak and Newport.
We can't say enough about how wonderful our stay was. Angel and Alex were amazing hosts, always ready to answer questions and went above and beyond to make the visit special. The place was in the perfect serene location and spotlessly clean with wonderful amenities. We felt wonderfully spoiled and if we are ever in that area will definitely go back!
We enjoyed staying at this little retreat. I am from a city and love the tranquil greenness of Vermont. And this little gem is worth it as it has so much more space than I am used to.
Thank you so much for keeping this listed each year as we will come visit again next year.

Clean and Comfy
The downstairs unit is clean and comfortable with everything needed for our family of five. Well equipped kitchen and outdoor grilling area, wi-fi and washer dryer all made this a better choice than an area hotel. 25 minute drive to Jay Peak. Cookies and treats left by hosts were added bonus.
Very comfortable. Nice and clean. Manager was prompt to reply to any of my inquiries.. Had a coffee machine set up which is absolutely crucial! And they had coffee there for us. Very nice touch to have some little gifts there for our stay also. Beds were also comfortable.
The customer service was wonderful and our stay was perfect! We skied Jay Peak, came back to relax and cook some delicious dinners. The home was spacious and just what we needed. Will definitely be back!
The property was clean and comfortable. Worked well for two guys bicycling until mid-afternoon, then chilling until dinner.
We were in the Northeast Kingdom to ride the area's pristine dirt roads.
We were extremely pleased with our accommodations. It was very quiet and peaceful which was exactly what we were looking for. The gift basket was very much appreciated. We love maple syrup! The wine was an exceptional gift but we are not wine drinkers. The thought was very much appreciated. Thank goodness it was not raining because we made several trips over the Hazen Notch Rd to visit friends in St Albans, Franklin and Richford. We were very familiar with the area since we lived in Franklin for 30 years. Angel, the kids loved the cookies. That was so wonderful of you to bring down freshly made cookies. The only recommendation that we have would be railings on the first level of steps. That was a bit tricky for an older person. Actually, I fell going up the steps. Fortunately. I was not hurt except for a few bruises. Again, we thoroughly enjoyed staying at your rental home.
