Such a wonderful and comfortable place to relax! It’s not too far away from small local towns, and Manchester’s about 30 minutes away. What I loved most about her property, was the beautiful pup! Laurie maintains this property very well! Nice, clean, and quiet! I will definitely be coming back next year!

The space was perfect for 2 people. We made day trips around the area to see the fall colors. Grocery stores and restaurants are not far as well as a laundry mat. We had everything we needed for our stay.

Probably one of the cutest if not the cutest place we’ve ever stayed. Stunningly beautiful location, in the countryside with meadows and mountains in the distance yet a 5 minute drive to restaurants and cafes in North Bennington. Immaculately clean place with an awesome little yet fully appointed kitchen makes me want to live there.

Laurie was an excellent host! The nest was so cozy and comfortable. The kitchen area was very well stocked and the sleep number bed was dreamy. This location was ideal for everything our family wanted to do - ski Stratton, shop Manchester and antiquing in Bennington. I even planned for a massage in Laurie’s studio 12/10!

Cozy stay, beds were extra comfy.

Had a great stay. It was pretty easy to get up to the guest room and there were lots of helpful furnishings and suggestions. The person who slept on the fold-out bed was surprised how comfortable it was.

Birds of a Feather Stay

This place was absolutely adorable. The owner was kind and had so many suggestions in a book for us during our stay. This was the perfect size for my daughter and I during our trip. The place was clean and exactly what we needed. Thank you for everything!
