We had a very sweet time enjoying this property. It was very peaceful and quiet. The pool table was a wonderful surprise. Unfortunately, while we were there, it was raining so we didn't get to enjoy the Gardens much, but they were beautiful.

Weekend stay
Our stay was great. We arrived late at night, and Gayle was very responsive to texts and even stayed up to welcome us when we got there. We would definitely stay again if we find ourselves back in Vermont.

Lovely property, beautiful gardens. Nice accomodations and living space. All was excellent, Oliver and Gayle are both fantastic. Would go back. Also very good food closer than I thought it would be. Didn't need to go back to Burlington. Good closer options. First time in Vermont and want to go back.

Even more lovely than the photos
We were in town for a wedding and had the perfect stay at Olive's beautiful home. The grounds are so lush and lovely, making a tranquil respite during an otherwise busy weekend. Oliver was gracious and so friendly, but respected our privacy throughout our stay. I wish we had more time getting to know him. What a fascinating backstory his photos and artwork tell! We'll be back for sure.
