Summary: We were pleasantly surprised to get the notice we could check-in early so off we set to Vermont! We arrived to a beautiful, peaceful and serene house! Great large home with lots of room to sleep, hang as a family, cook in a very well stocked kitchen, etc. it had anything we could have needed to cook with, play with, etc. the icing on the cake was the really cool pond that the kids loved exploring, catching and releasing frogs, newts etc. would love to visit again next year when we’re in town for the green mountain challenge soccer tournament

Summary: A group of 10 adults enjoyed a wonderful fall weekend at this house. The house is as described and is in a convenient location to restaurants, shopping, and other sites. The property surrounding the house is pretty with a big deck to enjoy outdoors. The house is very clean and well stocked with plenty of large windows for great natural light. The 10 of us had plenty of room for sleeping and relaxing and we enjoyed using the kitchen and sitting area for one of the nights that we stayed in for a birthday celebration. Communication with the owner was immediate and always helpful. We had no issues while staying at the house and I will stay there again if back in that area.

Summary: Our family stayed for four nights over the weekend of our son's wedding and it was wonderful! Lots of open space inside and out to stretch out and relax as well share together-time. The shaded area of the grounds was wonderful for the firepit at night as well as taking groomsmen photos the day of the wedding (at The Old Gray Barn in Dorset). Great stay!

Summary: The property was perfect. We had four couples in town for another friends 60th birthday celebration. We all enjoyed are stay. The beds were all comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. We enjoyed many coffee and wine time on the back deck and front deck as well. Location was very convenient to all our activities (golf at The Equinox and party at Frost Moon Mountain). The house was very clean. Shannon was super easy to reach and was very quick to respond anytime we reached out. You will not be disappointed if you book a stay at Birch Hill.
