Super close to Stratton

This is a simple place to stay close to Stratton and an amazing value. I will be back often I think, to the extent I hope to find the place available. For a few people skiing, you cannot find a better deal so close to the mountain. It’s not fancy, but it has what’s needed for a great ski trip at Stratton, which is an Ikon mountain. Ikon mountains are a little more expensive but they are run so much better than Epic, are not overcrowded and run with with full staff and snow making budget that make it SO much worth the extra cost, by far, hands down.

Perfect location and all you need

This is our second stay and I will definitely be coming back. The location is perfect. The property is exactly as described. Kelly is extremely easy to communicate with and was very accommodating in extending our checkout so that we could get a half day in at the mountain before heading back home. This place gem!

A perfect winter getaway

My girlfriend and I rented this cute little apartment for ski weekend up in Stratton. The host was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the surrounding, and offered some great recommendations close by. The apartment was clean, cozy, and made for the perfect Valentine’s weekend getaway :)

Perfect ski accommodation

This was the perfect stay for our family ski trip to Stratton - so convenient to the mountain! It was great to have the two pull out couches for my kids - they enjoyed having their own space. The apartment was clean and comfortable. The best was a little wonky - very hot upstairs and very cold downstairs, but not a huge deal. We would definitely stay here again!

Loved Our Stay

Long weekend getaway for my wife and I, with dogs. Everything was as described. Location was ideal for us to explore the area and take many walks and hikes with our dogs. Her recommendations of places to see and dine were excellent. The neighborhood was very quiet with the sounds of a running stream nearby. We love exploring Vermont, if we're back in this area we will definitely look to stay at Kelly's place again. Thank you.

Quiet Stay

The location was great; our family was looking for a spot to 'get away from it all'. We unfortunately stayed at a time when the region was experiencing record flooding. It was a little cramped downstairs in the kitchenette with the 4 of us (2 adults/2 kids) and having to use the bathroom sink for bathroom routines and washing dishes. Kelly and Elton were absolutely wonderful- very helpful and friendly.

Close to Stratton but nothing special

The proximity to Stratton (under 10 min) is definitely the main appeal for this rental. It's a renovated garage and while it has the necessities for a basic stay, the place itself is a bit dingy/cheaply done. Overall, it was pretty true to the listing. However the water pressure in the shower was very poor and there was a strong mildewy/gasoline smell in the downstairs area. Nice to be close to the ski resort, but not recommended if you want to cook and/or hang out. The host was very nice and communicative.

Perfect Location

I had an amazing stay at this property near Stratton Mountain! The location is perfect, just a short five-minute drive to the base of the mountain. The property was impeccably clean and matched the description perfectly. Throughout our stay, we experienced daily snowfall, and the driveway was always promptly cleared. The upstairs area was spacious and ideal for both of us and our furry companion. A quick tip for future guests: adjusting the heat may take a bit of trial and error to find the perfect temperature. Also, note that the listed lock box is actually a keypad, so no need to search for a non-existent lock box, especially in the middle of a snowstorm – learn from my experience! The hosts were gracious, and the overall experience was fantastic. I'm already looking forward to booking this location again in the future. Highly recommended!

Perfect location for Stratton & Southern Vermont weekend getaway

First, the hosts were brilliant. Great communication, great instructions for access, very helpful. Second, the property is in a great location, less than a 10 minute drive from the base of Stratton. Third, the property worked really well for our family (3 teenagers on the pullouts, 2 adults in the "nook" bedroom). Although the downstairs dining area was small (3 chairs around a table, and not really space for more) it worked just fine for us. We were only having breakfasts there and the fridge, microwave, convection oven, and induction burners did everything we needed for eggs, pastries, coffee (bring your own K-cups!), tea, toast. Upstairs was *more* spacious that I was expecting. The mini-split AC/heater units kept us cozy and warm. I'm sure in the summer they'd be more than adequate on hot days. And the price was excellent, so I'd definitely stay there again.

Rust in water

The space was okay, but it was difficult to cook, no coffee pot so you must bring keurig cups, and there was rust in the water. The toilet looked very dirty orange, and the water tasted like rust out of the faucets. That was the most difficult thing.

Everything You Need

Check in was a breeze, host reached out to offer to leave the lights on if we were arriving after dark. A nicely renovated separate garage gave us plenty of privacy but also peace of mind that we could quickly get a hold of someone if there was an issue. The provided welcome book had everything we needed to know, local parks, restaurants, stores, etc. It was a spur of the moment trip on our part so the “Incase you forgot” bin was much appreciated! Everything was just as described and exactly what we were expecting. Great trails and parks in the summer, we will definitely return if we ever head up for skiing in the winter.
