***For Winter time stays, an All-Wheel or Four Wheel Drive vehicle is required when snow and ice are present, as the property is on an unpaved mountain road. The roads are plowed and maintained by the town and are safe to drive. Also during the spring thaw the roads can be quite muddy, so All Wheel/ Four Wheel is is recommended

Vermont & East Coast Road Trip
The property was amazing. The furnishings and views from each room were breathtaking. Everything that anyone would need was available in the kitchen. It was the perfect place to wind down after a full day of scenic drives, shopping, sightseeing and activities. If we decide to return to Vermont, we will defiantly rebook. Maybe fly in from Texas next time! By the way, we had a chance to meet Timothy, and couldn't have met a nicer host.

Already planning our return
We spent a wonderful week here in August and are already thinking about when we can return! The house was very comfortable, spacious, and spotless. We love to cook and were amazed at the size of the kitchen (photos don’t do it justice) and how well equipped it was. There was every appliance you could ever need, a wide selection of pots and pans, and even a wine fridge. When we return, we won’t have to bring half our kitchen!! Even more impressive was the view from the back deck. We spent many hours sitting on the comfortable outdoor furniture taking in the beautiful scenery. Even though the weather wasn’t great, our experience was not at all dampened due to how relaxing the house was--the views were just as beautiful from just about every room. The house is on a gravel road great for walking and is about a 30 minute stroll into town. It is also conveniently located for day trips to explore northern Vermont. We loved visiting the farmers markets and local breweries. Our host Tim was very communicative and kind, making us feel very welcome in his home. Thank you again for a memorable week. We will be back!

Evaluation of Northfield house.
The kitchen was fit for a chef. It has everything, including all the space you would need. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and well stocked with towels and linens. It was fantastic!

Best VRBO Experience I've Ever Had
My family has booked over 20 VRBOs through the years across the country and this is by far the best property we have ever experienced. The home is delightful and true to the feeling of a "Vermont" home. The owners are extremely detailed with all aspects of service and quality. By far the cleaness home and kitchen we've been in. And the lighting in and ouside the home makes you feel calm and welcomed. The outdoor property is amazing and of course the view is unmatched. We had the fortune of meeting the owner as we were leaving and he is a genuine, down to earth person who truly enjoys making his visitors feel welcome. I highly recommend this property without an ounce of doubt!!

Beautiful relaxing vacation home
Our family had such a wonderful week! It was SO peaceful and relaxing which was just what we needed! Honestly it was probably one of our most relaxing vacations because the home and property were so beautiful that we could enjoy just doing nothing! We could tell the owners put a lot of thought into making it so comfortable. The communication was also excellent. We would definitely stay there again 😊.

Great Stay
We had a great time during our stay in Vermont. We picked the house based on location and amenities. The amenities in the house exceeded our expectations. The view is fantastic. We are a multi-generational family who had plenty of space for the grandparents to enjoy as well as the grandchildren.
