Our 1830s rustic and comfortable familyfarmhouse, Blue Flyer Farm, is available for rent through the seasons.
The Summer months are filled with blueberries and rhubarb, with swims in the pond and hikes around the meadows. Fall is full of foliage, hot chocolate, starry nights and toasty fires. Winter is abundant with skiing, snow, sledding and skating, in relativelyclose proximity to some of the best ski mountains in Southern Vermont. X-Country trails are just around the corner and the warm fireplace is perfect for recovering from your day's adventures.
The farmhouse has been recently renovated but maintains a rustic charm – peaceful setting with breathtaking vistas. Conveniently located near major destination spots: historic Chester, Weston, Grafton, Londonderry, and Manchester; skiing nearby at Magic, Bromley, Stratton, and a little further isOkemo and Mt. Snow. Killington is an hour away.
Blue Flyer Farm is our home and we expect you to be respectful. We also expect you to enjoy the amazing outdoors on the property, and to be comfortable and relaxed as our guests. We love to cook, and the kitchen is fully set for large family meals. We'll expect you to make many great memories -- swimming in the quarry in the summer, gazing at the stars on crystal clear nights, eating amazingly fresh local foods from the West Townshend, Chester and Londonderry farmers' markets; and above all, being able to share this wonderful place with family and friends.

Large living room with fireplace, library/TV room, dining room, fully equipped kitchen, 2 bathrooms + downstairs powder room, washer/dryer, Internet TV, VCR/DVD player, bluetooth radio in kitchen.

A few notes: We are at the top of a hill, and although the roads are plowed in the winter, there are numerous locales that are best reached by a vehicle with AWD or 4WD. It is not necessary for getting to and from the house though.
