Unit #1: This 3 bedroom 3 bath unit, Orsini's, boasts an impressive 2,000 square feet of living space, making it the ideal choice for families or groups of friends. What sets Orsini's apart is its single-level design, eliminating the need to navigate stairs and ensuring accessibility for all. This spacious unit comfortably accommodates up to eight guests and marries Vermont barn aesthetics with contemporary amenities. The open floor plan creates a seamless flow between the full modern kitchen, wet bar, dining area, and living space. A 55" smart TV graces the living area, perfect for movie nights or catching up on your favorite shows.

The living space includes realistic electric fireplace, complete with steam effects, adds a touch of cozy warmth to your evenings. Bedrooms have A/C for warm summer months.

Unit #2: La Pasta is named after the second restaurant to occupy the barn. It is a modern 2000 sq foot, 4 bedroom/3 bath lower level unit that does have some outdoor large flat stairs to navigate, and can accommodate 10 people. While it is a lower level unit you can hear footsteps from the unit above. It is a very open unit with plenty of windows in the bedrooms and higher windows in the living area. It is a fun unit that is more contemporary and has just a touch of the barn look to it. The TV in the den gives the kids a place to escape and adds some privacy. The den also houses a sleeper couch for extra space if needed. Being a lower unit, La Pasta stays cool all summer long without the use of A/C. When you are done with all of your activities, take a soak in your private hot tub.

Unit #3: This 3 bedroom 3 bath unit, The Common Man, boasts an impressive 2,000 square feet of living space, making it the ideal choice for families or groups of friends. Named after the third and final restaurant to occupy the building, This very special 2000 square foot luxury unit that sleeps 8. You need to walk up 4 steps to the unit and two bedrooms are on the second floor. This two story unit is very reminiscent of the last and most famous restaurant that was housed in this barn. The beautiful grand fireplace is still the focal point of this space and we were able to incorporate many fun elements from the original barn.

In the winter, the bus stops right at the property and in the summer there are hiking trails right off of the property.

Outdoors, savor:
A lockable ski locker for winter enthusiasts.

Perfect for a multi-family ski trip!

This place was great for our large group of 6 young families; plenty of bedrooms and space for hanging out, but enough separation for everyone to feel comfortable. The house is incredibly close to Sugarbush mountain (2 min drive), but we used the seasonal shuttle which worked perfectly for our large ski group. The host was also very communicative and quick to respond to inquiries. Will definitely plan a large ski trip here again next year!

Holiday ski getaway

We were a large group that rented the entire property. Overall a great option for multiple families to be together and have some space apart. Location to mountain was perfect. Unit 3 was far and away the nicest. We enjoyed fires every night (plenty of wood provided) and kitchen was great for making family style meals. Hot tubs needed more maintenance and unit 2 had a compressor literally attached to a bedroom wall that was very noisy.

Summer of 2024

This property was perfect for us, we rented the entire Mad House for our stay. Our group consisted of men, women and teens. Teens took La Pasta, moms took Orsini & Dads got The Common Man. Each unit was tailor made for our needs, we couldn't have asked for anything more. The property was super clean, tastefully decorated and very well stocked with kitchen and bathroom essentials. The hot tubs added to the fun. The property manager was very responsive and we had a great time. I wouldn't think twice about renting this property twice in the future. We had a great vacation!

Perfect for large groups

The Mad House was such an incredible spot for large groups. We had 25 adults and 16 kids at one point of the weekend. Not everyone stayed the night but everyone who did had a bed (kids on air mattresses) and plenty of bathrooms. The commons spaces were beautiful. We had a fire in the fireplace one morning and everyone came in for breakfast, it was so relaxing and enjoyable. Highly recommend to any family or group of friends. We were able to put the kids to bed and monitors reached in every location throughout the 3 units. There was a fire pit and large flat area for the kids to run around. Hoping to make this an annual event with friends and family.

Outstanding House for Large groups

The check in process was super clear and easy and they even shared a few things that were wrong with that property ahead of time to give us a heads up which was great. All the issues were minor and none impacted our stay whatsoever. The entire house and property was super clean and they provide everything for you from a fully stocked kitchen with tons of cookware, utensils and glasses, garbage bags, to towels for all bathrooms and bedrooms and even towels for the hot tub. We honestly had zero complaints and would highly recommend the Mad House. Everyone of our guests was super impressed and I think each one FaceTimed someone to show them the house.
