Private home with amazing views
After the past year and a half of dealing with the pandemic and seeing the same scenery day after day, we were ready for a change and some rejuvenation. We found the perfect place. We spent two and a half amazing weeks at Alpine Meadow perched on the side of a rocky hill with a great view of a mountain.
We appreciated the character and history of the home and especially enjoyed sitting on the porch deck watching the sun rise over the trees in the morning and shadows set in the late afternoon. Truly the most peaceful we have felt in a long while. The weather varied throughout our time, so we were able to enjoy sitting in the sun, warming ourselves by the firepit, and listening to rain in the den. Even sitting inside, we enjoyed the view looking out of the windows surrounding the den. Very open feeling downstairs.
As far as utilizing the house, we had everything we needed to cook, wash clothes, etc.. The kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans, utensils, glassware, plates, you name it! The beds are super comfortable. We (husband, myself and 14 year old) slept in the two bedrooms upstairs. There is a half bath up there that works great for nighttime. The full bathroom with shower is downstairs and there is a bedroom downstairs with bunk beds.
The internet speed was awesome! We were able to do Zoom calls, watch Netflix, etc... and did not experience any issues.
The location was very convenient to grocery stores, restaurants, downtown Waterbury and Stowe.
Our host Ben provided detailed instructions on how things worked in the house and offered suggestions for places to eat, hike, swim, listen to music, etc… He was very responsive to our questions and communications.
We really did not want to leave and we will definitely come back.
