The apartment was quite comfortable, and the hosts were very gracious. We loved our stay and would hope that they would have us back. Great skiing too! Thank you both
Really great hosts! Very welcoming and responsive. Had some nice treats for us and our dog when we arrived. Loved all the dog decor as well. It felt like a home away from home. Our dog loved the back yard. We even saw a few turkeys on the property.
Perfectly located for attending a wedding in Woodstock. Surroundings are beautiful. Apartment was quiet & had everything we needed (including coffee, juice, and breakfast bread provided by the hosts.)
Really quiet location - nice refuge for a few days to escape the noise from the rest of the world. Great place to see nature up close!! Hope that I can make it back again with my husband next time - perfect size for two people, and I think it dog will love it
The Vermont Retreat is a darling place to stay. My son, daughter-in-law really loved the attention to detail and extra welcoming bread and condiments provided. They appreciated the pet friendly retreat and enjoyed their host’s being so helpful with suggestions of the many things to do in the area. The location is lovely and quiet and great restaurants are nearby. They hope to return there soon- thanks
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was the perfect location between events that we were attending. Beautiful location, wonderful house and attentive/ helpful hosts.
Great place to stay. Very clean and perfect place for my son and dog. Hosts were very friendly and perfect hosts. Delicious banana bread was waiting for us upon arrival and treats for our dog too!
This is the perfect place to stay if you are skiing at Killington / Pico.
What a lovely little place for us and our dogs (3 months old and 14 years old). Ellen was so lovely and welcoming and the area allowed for pups to play off-lead. Very private and beautiful. Thank you so much to our wonderful hosts who so graciously shared this little slice of Vermont with us! (The attached pic was taken in Bennington the day we checked out, not at the property. I didn’t want to mislead anyone! The actual property is very quiet and peaceful.)
This place was the perfect getaway! The property had everything we were looking for - quiet, peaceful, and close to activities. It looks exactly as pictured. The hosts were very responsive, helpful, and sweet!

I absolutely loved my stay at this property. The accommodation is an apartment in a converted barn. It's a beautiful quiet location a short drive from Woodstock. The hosts were fantastic and gave me some great suggestions of places to visit, they also left wonderful muffins for my arrival. I would definitely stay here again.
Me and my boyfriend came to stay here for a little skiing getaway for my birthday! It was everything and more we could have imagined! It was clean and SO cozy! It also was such a close distance to all of the mountains making our getaway perfect! Ellen was by far the best host I’ve ever had, she made sure we had everything we needed and was so welcoming! Whenever I’m back in the area I will for sure stay there again! Highly highly highly recommend!
Everything was wonderful. There was excellent communication, the place was clean and had everything we needed for a weekend away. Ellen really personalizes the experience with special treats upon arrival and tips for places to eat. She even scraped off our jeep when we were heading out. Thank you Ellen!
Cozy and everything you could need. Really nice kitchen set up and excellent appliances. After a week on the road, the washer & dryer were a welcome refresh of clothing. It's a few minutes west of Woodstock down a country road, so secluded. Takes dogs - wish we had one!
Excellent communication even before we arrived which made everything very clear for us to check in late night. It’s the perfect space for us to relax after a day of skiing at Killington! It was quick drive from their place to the mountain. Ellen and her partner made us and our dog feel right at home. They have truly thought of everything that you could need for the weekend. I have recommended this place to friends, and we will certainly be back next year! Thank you again!
A wonderful stay at Vermont Retreat. Love the wooded location. Quiet and restful. Hosts were readily available. Delightful to find banana bread, coffee, and OJ waiting for me, on arrival. The place was equipped with everything one could possibly need. The washer and dryer in the apartment were a very convenient plus! I hope to return next year.
Just pack your clothes- because you’ll have pretty much everything else you’ll need in this very clean and cozy apartment. Felt very inviting and a lot like home. Never met the hosts but if you need anything, they are just a text away! The road is very dark at night but there’s a motion detector in the drive way as soon as you pull up … I also like the motion detector nightlights throughout the apartment. Easy, comfortable and cozy about sums it up! Highly recommend!!!
Great location! Perfect set up for 2 people and dog friendly! Lots of property to hike. And by far Ellen and her husband, the owners of the property were absolutely wonderful! Amazing people with great hospitality! Literally the nicest people ever! Very attentive and just a call or text away if we needed anything. The place was extremely clean and cozy! Honestly couldn’t have picked a better place to stay! It was fully stocked with everything you could need and she was even nice enough to make us a homemade loaf of banana bread and homemade Mac and cheese! Just the sweetest, kindest people on the planet! We had a wonderful vacation and absolutely will be coming back there next time we visit Vermont! You will not be disappointed! Definitely recommend!
I was travelling solo for fall foliage photography in and around the Woodstock area. I wanted a small fully-contained suite in a quiet location, and this fit the bill completely. The bedroom was a good size with a comfortable queen bed; the living area had a sofa and recliner along with a tv and electric fireplace; the dining area had a good-sized table and food prep area, and the compact kitchen had all the necessities for food prep and storage. In-suite laundry and shower-bathroom rounded out the amenities. There are several windows providing good lighting throughout the suite.
The property is quiet and full of trees and birds. Stargazers will appreciate viewing the dark skies right outside the door or elsewhere on the property. It is located in Bridgewater; a scenic 15-minute drive east finds you in the town of Woodstock, or a similar drive west to the Killington ski hills area. It is a perfect central location for exploring the area while avoiding the busyness and slow traffic in the major towns. Woodstock has a large market for all your grocery needs, but it is only about 30 minutes' drive to Lebanon NH if you need big-store shopping.
Ellen and Curtis were very hospitable, friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this location and would stay there again.
