Are you looking for a private pool, fire pit, sauna, AND a playground!? Are you looking for a more concierge quality of hosting? Look no further. Karin's Place is your home away from home. All the privacy with as much interaction as you need/want or don't.
Events up to 45 people are negotiated per event. We have a separate space on the property.
Some have referred to Jenny as the super. So adding to her already designated titles, Director of Vibes and Chief Memory Officer, she has now adopted "Super Jenny!"
That said, please join us in our guest house called Karin's Place and enjoy our "Gentleman's Farm" of goats, chickens, and freshly planted veggies! We live on site in a separate space and you have as much privacy as you desire with the convenience of instant response if you need anything.
There is something for everyone at Karin’s Place–from the enormous backyard, private pool, fire pit sauna, and a pirate ship playground to enough books and games to last several lifetimes! Lie in a hammock and take in the sun or cross country ski on the 22 acres of land. The leaf peeping is also impossible to beat.
This home is unique and grand. It was conceived by Jenny's father who was a bonafide eccentric. He lived a large life and was truly one-of-a-kind. There is no other home or inn in the area like Karin's Place. The house seamlessly converted into two completely separate spaces, allowing for a living space for us and a retreat space for you while retaining privacy. Our goats, chickens, and ducks look forward to your stay as well.
There are hotels. There are convention centers. There are inns and B&Bs. None have a a pirate ship or a grown-up sized swing and enough books for a lifetime. Our attention to detail and personal investment in your time at Karin's Place makes every visit distinctive and uniquely special.
Karin’s Place is an 8,000 square-foot estate nestled in the woods of Bennington, Vermont. The guest house is the original upgraded house with a separate entrance and a large wooden fence to separate the outdoor space as well. We are far enough off the road for solitude and listening to birds and animals rustling in the woods yet just four miles from the town of Bennington and nine miles from Williamstown, Massachusetts, Karin’s Place is in the middle of nowhere and close to somewhere. She can be your ultimate destination and/or she can be your resting ground after taking in theatre, music, museums, skiing, and more.
The limit is 12 including children all with their own beds. Rent the entire house for 2 days or a couple of weeks. (Discounts for a week or more and we do NOT charge the overage fees for children 2 and under.)
Just come. Why wait? We look forward to meeting you!
As John is an acoustic expert, there is no sound bleed between the living spaces.
A portion of your fee is donated to the Alzheimer's Association in the name of Jenny's mother, Karin.
The base price is for up to 8 people. $45/person/night for additional people. (No additional person charges for children under age 3. The fees are non-negotiable. Again: events up to 45 people are negotiated per event. We have a separate space on the property.

Summary: We stayed at Karin’s Place for 3 nights in late May. There were 11 of us, including three teenagers, three parents in their 50’s and five grandparents in their 80’s. The place fit us well. It was just as advertised. We used the hot tub, sauna, gas grill, and a bunch of appliances, and everything worked great. Plenty of sheets and towels. The porch is large and gets a nice breeze around the pool area. Very comfortable! Jenny was there to meet us, and was helpful and friendly. We did not see her at all after that, though she texted the next day to make sure we had everything we needed. The dirt road leading up the hill to the house took some getting used to, but the scenery along the road (orchards, mountains, the occasional goat) was fantastic. We really enjoyed our stay!

Summary: Jenny is one of the best hosts I’ve had, and I’ve stayed at quite a few places. She greets you upon arrival and gives you the overview and then leaves you to your stay. She’s very communicative to make sure she answers your questions and to make sure your stay is as effortless as possible. The house had everything we needed plus some and was a great way to unwind at the end of the year and so connect from the world and just be with friends! 45 minute drive to Mount Snow and probably a few more minutes to Stratton. The town of Bennington is so quaint and quiet, and just feels so homey with all of the Christmas decorations up. The only thing the house didn’t have was a washer/dryer but not going to take off stars for that—could have easily enjoyed the town of Bennington and brought laundry there and spent a day exploring. Would recommend 1000x over to my friends and may even be booking for next NYE. Can’t thank you enough, Jenny!
