Nice place. Close to skiing
Nice place for our weekend ski trip to Okemo. Kids enjoyed having their own rooms. The kitchen was well-stocked (thanks for the coffee and cream!) and the bathroom soaps were a welcome surprise. The house is connected to the main house and shares a wall, but no access. If arriving at night, the yellow house is the right place. Just head towards the back of the house, and you’ll be all set! Overall, the place was great. We would be delighted to stay again!

Relaxing stay
Very clean, spacious and quiet, Perhaps above all, well located: Smitty's well-stocked grocery is across the road, the historic Stone House district is a minute north, Chester Commons a minute south and Springfield and Bellows Falls 20-30 minutes away.

Exceptional and convenient
Jenn’s carriage house was one of the best places we have ever rented. The house is well equipped and SUPER clean. The beds were very comfortable and the space is very quiet. There were guests in the front house during our stay but we never heard noise. Jenn provided some of the basics in the kitchen and laundry room. We look forward to renting the space again.

Great Stay!
We enjoyed the unique flavor of the house. There was a nice backyard with a fire pit. Kids ages 21, 18, and 12 all loved the house as well as the community. Would definitely stay again.
