Exactly what you need

Our stay was brief since it was for a wedding, but it was the perfect spot since it was only a few minutes from the venue. Vernon is a small place, so having something like this place available was cost effective, convenient, and pretty cozy!

Perfect for what I needed

House was very nice. Clean. PLENTY of amenities. It was literally 3min down the road from the venue of my daughter's wedding. Almost exactly half way between my kids homes too. Was bitter cold most of the time we were there but didn't notice it at all inside the house. Would definitely stay again if the right circumstances arise. VERY happy with the whole experience.

Christmas Stay

We were celebrating Christmas with my family and needed an extra location to stay. The house was cozy and there was even a tree there to greet us. It was the first time our children spent Christmas away from out house, so the tree was appreciated!

Beautiful home in Vernon

We chose this house for our stay following a wedding at the Hayloft, and could not have been happier with the choice. The house is beautiful, very well maintained and the owner Michael was fantastic to work with. We would absolutely choose this property again, and recommend to anyone staying in the area. Cheers

Hamilton College Family Weekend getaway

Absolutely loved this home! Very quiet and serene despite being on a busier road. Short 10 minute drive to Hamilton and one of the cleanest places I have stayed. Adorable little home with everything you could ask for. Owner even left us a welcome note and there were mints in a bowl when we walked in!

Great Place to Stay!

For a house being on a 2 lane road, it was surprisingly quiet!! The house was clean and lovely. The beds very comfortable and also clean!! I loved having my morning coffee on the back porch and watching the rabbits and woodchuck. The host was great and easy to get in touch with. I would definitely stay here again

Sweet stay

My husband and I, kids and grandkid were in Vernon for a family reunion. We found the house comfortable, clean, well stocked and welcoming. Location was perfect for us, just 2 1/2 miles from our reunion. The parents of the toddler appreciated the access to the washer/dryer at the house.

Enjoyable 2 Night Stay

Check in was very simple and easy. Host was helpful before we checked in and while we were there, answering any questions and giving guidance. The house was nice and cool with AC, atmosphere was very cozy and welcoming. Had so many immensities available, it made our stay super convenient. Was the perfect size house for my family.
