The Rabbit Hole - Luxury Cabin in heart of Stowe

SuzanneRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The house was perfect for us. We were a group of 8 and everyone had a comfortable place to sleep, plenty of space to move around, park our cars and sit while relaxing throughout the house. Ryan was so helpful and quick to respond if we had any questions. Lovely house, hope I get to return.

Charming getaway tucked away in the Green Mtns

TraceyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Not sure if it was the mattress, the sheets and quilt, the pillows, the Vermont woods, Vermont fresh air, or the rain hitting the roof… maybe all of it… but, my husband and I have not slept so well in… maybe EVER! Rob’s home is super comfy and dog friendly. The hot tub is a nice feature and works wonderfully. If you are looking for a quiet, peaceful location for your visit, this hits all the marks. Sitting outside with your morning coffee is a treat. If weather doesn’t cooperate, recommend sitting in the den in front of the picture window. Our old dog truly appreciated exploring the fenced yard, and we loved allowing him off off-leash. Great place to stay!

3 BDR Mtn Home near wedding barns, Smuggs/Stowe

EverettRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Samantha and Chris's place was a perfect spot for a Smugglers Notch getaway! it's a beautiful home, perfect for a family of 4. Even in cold temperatures( at -5F and lower) with lots of snow, the place was cozy warm with the wood burning furnace (clean and devoid of smoke) as well a propane heater downstairs. Literally 2 turns from the slopes of a great family ski mountain! But the views and location of the property were amazing for those wanting to do other things than ski. Samantha was responsive and an excellent communicator. I have to throw in that everything in their kitchen was in excellent condition (every appliance) including sharp functional chef knives (an uncommon phenomenon for a renter) Thank you Samantha and Chris! Sharing your home with us was a touch- stone of great new family memories!

Peaceful setting with Mountain Views

HallieRating, 5 stars4 months ago
Home away from home! Susan was a fantastic host. She was very responsive and communicated quickly. This home was perfect for our group of 6 and it was extremely cozy! This was our first time in Vermont and it definitely exceeded all of our expectations. If you looking for a pleasant place to stay with amazing views, look no further than this adorable Airbnb! We skied in Stowe, toured the Ben and Jerry’s ice cream factory down the road and enjoyed some live music at the ZenBarn. I would highly recommend this property! We hope to visit again soon :)

Woodstone Cottage an Adirondack Experience

BeccaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
My husband and I needed a relaxing getaway and this spot 100% met the mark. Area was quiet and on a dead and road so we didn’t even hear passing traffic. We frequently travel “off grid” and remote cottages and cabins through out the upper east coast and this was the most private we have come across. The cabin had everything we needed and all of the charm. The property was lovely, with walking paths and our Labrador could not have been happier. Of course the hot tub and sauna took relaxing to the next level. We are both looking forward to coming back!!

The Barn at Fielder Farm

Brian & JulieRating, 5 stars3 months ago
What a beautiful place! Sarah and Bert’s place was one of a kind! Superb location with beautiful views of the surrounding mountains! We booked this location for our family snowboarding trip, there was ample space for us to eat and enjoy family time. Great kitchen to cook and socialize with everybody. I can’t say enough about this home. Sarah and Bert were excellent hosts and we communicated effortlessly and they provided a very positive experience. If you’re planning a trip to the area for adventure or just a getaway, I would highly recommend staying at Fielders farm!

Dream Cabin in Vermont

RebeccaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We absolutely adored our stay at the cabin. It is idyllic inside and out! It was amazing to come home to after a day of exploring. The bed was super comfortable and the highlight for us was watching VHS on the TV with snacks. It is so well equipped and cosy, also enjoyed a lovely bath in the claw foot tub. Just perfect for a rustic, cosy stay in nature. A highlight for me was stepping outside at night and listening to (I assume they were) frogs!! They were so loud and it was incredible to hear them, the trees were also surrounded by fireflies (I’d never seen them before!) and I’ll always remember that perfect moment of peace. Thank you for making our 10 year anniversary so memorable with such a lovely place to stay, if you’re thinking of it for a special occasion or just as a base to explore this adorable region of Vermont, look no further :) thank you!

Dream Log Cabins! Pets Welcome!

AngeloRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Claudia's place was EXACTLY what we were looking for on our VT getaway. Close to Stowe and Morristown, yet outside the madness of being in town. Claudia was the perfect host......accommodative, Fast response to messages, friendly and helpful. Despite other cabins on the property, this place was very private. Mr Charlie loved the fenced in yard to run loose in and the deck was perfect for sitting and relaxing. Would definitely consider this space again on our next trip to VT.

The Sunrise Cabin

DanielleRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Such a lovely Airbnb will highly recommend to anyone looking for either a romantic getaway or a very fun weekend with friends. The view from the cabin is unbeatable and there is a small path down to the water. In June, the bugs were manageable and we came prepared with citronella candles so it was no issue!

The Guest House at Chandlery Farm

AmyRating, 5 stars4 days ago
We were in love with this place before we even arrived. Tom was so friendly and communicative days before we set out for Vermont, that it made our check-in seamless. The guest house is amazing. The attention to detail is incredible- Tom and Karen made sure that everything was just right. Cozy robes in the closet, comfy beds with sumptuous bedding, board games, lots of nooks to settle in with a book, a stocked kitchen... perfection! And the setting... WOW! Stunning views and such a peaceful and beautiful setting. We had access to the farm and could walk and explore. I cannot wait to return! It must be incredible in the fall!!

Clean, Modern, Private 2BR + 2BA in Stowe

JocelynRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The location is amazing. Nice and private but close to bike paths, restaurants and shops. We chose to drive to Rec Path parking since I didn’t feel comfortable with my 6 year old riding down the street the house is on, it’s a bit steep. The property is beautiful. Josi’s place has all the essentials you’ll need in the kitchen and bathrooms. The beds are firm but comfortable, the pillows are soft and fluffy. Highly recommend going to Bike Ranch if you stay in Stowe. The staff in the bike shop and restaurant were so kind and food was DELICIOUS, especially for those with dietary restrictions. Josi was very kind and responsive. We’d love to stay again.

Luxury 1 Bedroom at Topnotch Resort!

ChrisRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Our family had a great time at the Topnotch Resorts. The unit was cozy and clean with everything we needed. It was great to have access to a washer and dryer to throw in the ski clothes from the day. The indoor pool and hot tub facility was beautiful with fresh towels available and and a family changing area. The outdoor pool and hot tub were also awesome with a view of the mountains in the background. Kelly at the front desk was a complete pleasure to work with. She answered all of our questions promptly and went above and beyond to help us and made sure our stay was amazing. We will be back!

Chad was an incredible host! He was extremely accommodating with any requests we had. The views from his place are breath-taking! We enjoyed snowshoeing from the backyard onto trails in the woods. I fell in love with his cat who visited daily! He kept the driveway plowed and salted in a timely fashion. We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend his place!

Cozy two-bedroom cabin near Smugglers Notch

KrisRating, 5 stars14 months ago
We could not have asked for a better place for our eclipse adventure. The two bedroom cabin was spotlessly clean, well-appointed, cute and plenty of space for the 4 of us. We loved being out in the woods and enjoyed our walks around the pond enormously. Easy to get to restaurants and other activities, but away from the hustle and bustle. The staff were super friendly and very helpful. Not a thing to complain about, and would definitely recommend to anyone!

Gorgeous panoramic views - 4 miles to the mountain

RuthRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Absolutely wonderful stay! As a family of five, we couldn't have asked for a better place. The unit was incredibly spacious, comfortable, and had such a warm, homey feel—it truly felt like a home away from home. The mountain view from the living room window was beautiful, a perfect backdrop for our mornings and evenings. Jeff, the host was exceptional—extremely responsive, thoughtful, and helpful throughout our stay. Every question or request was handled quickly and kindly, which made our experience stress-free and enjoyable. We had some wifi issues which took time to resolve but Jeff helped and made sure it is taken care of. The apartment was impressively well-equipped with everything we needed, clearly a lot of care went into preparing the space for guests. The location was perfect for us— surrounded by beautiful trails that we explored as a family. If you are into skiing, the ski tracks are short drive away. It was the ideal base for both adventure and relaxation. Highly recommended

EPIC Stowe Getaway - Great For Families & Friends

KatieRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
weekend family trip for 6 of us and our dog(4 adults and 2 kids), plenty of space for everyone, and much larger than I expected! we enjoyed cooking in the well stocked kitchen, playing board games on the large dining room table, swimming in the pool and soaking in the hot tub, wrapping the nights up with a movie on their Roku TV! Kristin was very responsive in her communication, we had a lovely time and would love to plan future trips here again!
