Blissful Vermont Getaway
I loved everything about this house - the layout, the space, the history, the location. I booked this house almost a year ago as a birthday present to myself for my 60th birthday in June. My husband, son and his wife, and precious 5-year old granddaughter were able to join us, and my birthday was just about everything I could have hoped for. The house itself was perfect for us - space to spread out, a fully equipped kitchen for cooking, a long dining table to enjoy meals together, two separate living areas, and a lovely backyard for birdwatching and listening to the rush of the Black River below. The beds were comfortable and the bedrooms spacious. We appreciated the laundry room, since we were at the house for a week. We also waded in the bracing waters of the river's edge just below the bridge several times and admired the beautiful river rocks. Perkinsville is within easy driving distance of so many places to explore. We drove all over Vermont, from Windsor to Rutland, and Burlington to Brattleboro, but concentrated mostly on the Windsor County area. We went to Bookstock in Woodstock, the strawberry festival at Wellwood Orchards, learned about maple syrup production at Sugarbush Farms, toured several old houses, had fabulous meals and drinks, including an excellent dinner at the Weatherfield Inn for my birthday, and hunted down every independent bookstore we could find. We even saw a bear from a safe distance in a cemetery. It was the trip of a lifetime.
