Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Essex

Super worth! We came here last week and loved it so much, we came this weekend too! Good dining recommendations from Daveo. He even saved us when our car was stuck in the snow! We truly appreciate his help. One million dollar view, one million points recommend! We'll come again next ski season!

This is a great house to stay in. There's a lot of space, places to sleep, sit and relax, eat, watch tv, play games, work, read, cook. Plenty of hot water.. Very private, although in a neighborhood. Nice back yard area when not covered in snow, looking up at the mountains behind. Sheri is top notch. Easy to reach, super friendly and helpful, easy going. We came at the tail end of a snow storm, but the driveway was cleared enough to get our car in and then Sheri worked with us to make sure everything was cleared before we had to go out the next day. Easy walk into the cute town of Bristol. Handful of nice shops (books, games, art, crafts, gifts, toys) and restaurants: Wokky's--ok Chinese/great staff; Minifactory--out of sight coffee/biscuits/sandwiches/fresh ingredients/lot of gluten free; Cubber's--locals' joint/excellent pizza/sandwiches; Farmhouse Chocolates--superb fresh organic truffles, bars, caramels/chocolatier is wonderful. Easy drive to Mad River Glen, Sugarbush for skiing.

We had a great stay here. The house was quaint and exactly as pictured. We asked for recommendations but didn’t receive a response. However, Sam was super responsive for all other things house related like check in time and when the shower pump was broken and only giving us cold water. The hot water issue was taken care of right away which was appreciated! The backyard is big and fenced in. This is great for dogs! There is a grill and fire pit. We didn’t use either but having that amenity was nice. Location is great and so was the price. Walking distance and car ride from most eateries and cute shops. We felt safe, thank you!

We had a lovely time at this quaint mountainous home. The neighbor nearby had some horses that grazed near the home every morning and the vistas in the distance were incredible to see. We would love to come back again next year, maybe during the more peak foliage season. Thank you all so much for your hospitality, especially for providing us an extra night!

Great house and location was easy to get to, close to airport, and events.

Had a fantastic time. Went backcountry skiing before work and then worked from his place with multiple people doing zoom calls without issues. Perfect place for us

It is a beautiful house where you can smell the family and we liked that a lot. It is close to the ski slopes, very clean and comfortable. Lidsa and Tom have very good communication, excellent service.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay! Blake was extremely quick to respond. He made sure we had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. He reached out after we checked in to offer recommendations for the area. I would definitely recommend him and would absolutely stay again.

I needed a little break from my every day Vermont life. This was the perfect spot to get away from everything, but still not be far from home. I would definitely go back! Thank you so much!

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!

PERFECT winter getaway! The location was amazing…our room had a wonderful view of the mountain, pool and hot tub. The resort itself was beautiful-great staff! Nice shops, excellent dining and bars! And, of course-snowboarding! Will definitely return! Can’t say enough about Stowe Mountain Resort! AWESOME!

Rebecca’s air bnb is awesome in a great location and she truly goes the extra mile for her visitors.

Linda was a fantastic host, and her home was even better than listed. The cabin was a good size for our family of four + dog; the 2 bed / 2 bath arrangement allowed for good privacy when needed. The fireplace was great for apres and winding down at night. Location is a nice mix of seclusion (off the Mountain Rd), but close to everything.

We had an amazing stay, this trip far exceeded our expectations and staying in such a nice place made everything so much more enjoyable. This spot was the perfect mix of private and secluded while still also being very close to Stowe, and Johnson. We were able to complete everything on our itinerary while also being able to come back every night to a beautiful home with everything we needed. It was very nice to be able to sit down with family we havent seen in so long and enjoy an amazing home cooked meal or play some board games. Thank you Kristin for your amazing hospitality. This has made Vermont one our favorite states to visit. We will definitely be back.

No frills but that’s what we were looking for, for a quick spring ski trip! Affordable and great for the kids with a ton to do on the property. Game space, pool, hot tub, laser tag plus skiing! Super fun packed few days. Host very communicative. We will return.

House is even better in person: high quality furnishings, beds, etc. Florence was very easy to communicate with and even helped us get some lift tickets. Highly recommend.

We had such a fun trip! Nikki’s cottage was absolutely gorgeous, nestled in the countryside. Would absolutely stay here again!

We had an absolutely spectacular time staying with Gerette! Her beautiful cabin was everything we hoped for and more. Our golden retriever had the time of her life bounding through all of the snow!

We appreciated how pet friendly this place was! Fenced in yard. Blankets to cover the furniture to allow dogs on them. Close enough to many different ski mountains. Perfect to come home to the wood stove and hot tub.

I wish I could rate this home 6 stars. It is beautiful, peaceful, private, and surrounded by nature. The two bedrooms are great and very comfortable, and they actually have anything you might need in terms of toiletries. Corey was super responsive and helpful, he quickly answered the few questions that I had. Would absolutely recommend this home to anyone looking for a small getaway.

We've stayed at Fiona's place so many times, I've lost count! We keep coming back because it's just a 5-minute walk to both Church Street and the waterfront, the fenced-in backyard is perfect for pets, and the hosts are proactive, helpful, and cheerful. Plus, the house is incredibly well-equipped—they’ve truly thought of everything.

This is the fourth year we have booked Dogatraz island and look forward to it every time. Nick, the property manager is responsive, on time and super helpful. We love the private island and being able to let our dogs run free, especially our deaf dog. She always has to be on a leash where we live and being able to watch her run is priceless. Both pups love the kayak and the water (but neither will swim-LOL). I love the idea of no Wifi and forcing us to detach from our otherwise busy lives. Looking forward to next year!!

We had an amazing stay! The location was perfect for our ski trip, and the place was exactly as described: spacious and comfortable for our group. One of the highlights was catching the northern lights, thanks to a thoughtful reminder from our host, Shelly. She was super responsive and friendly. Would definitely stay here again!

This is a magical place perched above the river. Very convenient to Shelburne village amenities. Private and peaceful. The apartment is cozy and provides the basics needed to make small meals. The bed is very comfy. I will definitely return!
