The location is excellent, with easy access to Ludlow and the surrounding area. I appreciated that I was able to bring my dogs, and we visited the dog park in Ludlow daily, where I met friendly people who were a great source for local information. The house can easily accommodate 6 people, as there is an additional bed in the finished room in the basement level, which was not obvious to me in the pictures. However, the dining area only provided 4 chairs (there are 2 folding chairs in the downstairs bedroom if needed), and there is only one bathroom. You are expected to bring your own bedding and towels. I was grateful to stay in the quiet area for the 4th of July weekend! I imagine it is a popular location during the ski season.

About the host

Hosted by Tom and Kelley Norcia

Host profile image
The chalet was built by Tom (owner) in 2004 and this is our second home. We reside full time in CT but love coming to VT any time of the year. We enjoy hiking, skiing, and taking day trips with our Bernese Mountain Dog. Hosting has enabled us to meet people from all over and share the beauty of the Okemo region.

Why they chose this property

With a view of the backside of Okemo, Tom (a lifelong avid skier) chose this location because it was serene but just a quick trip into Ludlow and surrounding areas. The autumn leaves are fantastic in this area and the neighborhood is quiet and peaceful.

What makes this property unique

You'll love this property. It is well maintained, close to everything you need and welcoming to come home to after your day's activities.
