Perfect location!

Couldn't be happier with the property. Beautiful views of the mountains and just enough off the beaten path that you have plenty of privacy. Nick was very helpful and communicative from start to finish.

About the host

Hosted by Nick Bruch

I am an outgoing and friendly host who loves to help. I am 29 years old, born and raised in Vermont. I moved down here for work 2 years ago from Burlington and fell in love with the area. I am a carpenter by trade but have enjoyed the connections and friendships developed through the short-term rental property space and am excited for the chance to meet new people. I grew up around dogs, cats, birds, rabbits and snakes so all types of animals are welcomed and loved. I enjoy walking the trails, playing hockey, lacrosse and being outdoors. Please feel free to reach out if you need any recommendations on where to go or activities to do around town or have any questions. I am easy to reach by phone and would love to be of assistance to make your stay at the Cottage the best possible!

Why they chose this property

I live in close proximity to the Cottage and love the property as a whole. It's nestled in the valley with beautiful views all around which makes every time of the year a sight to see. The bedrooms offer space for a family while the common areas are open and inviting to share a meal or morning coffee as you take in the view. The road is quiet and is in close proximity to downtown allowing for easy and quick trips to do some shopping or to grab some food and drinks at any of the local restaurants or bars. All in all a great option for anyone traveling alone, with a partner, pets or the whole family.

What makes this property unique

This property offers the privacy of a quiet home with the views of Vermont's beautiful landscape, paired with access to downtown and miles of walking trails to take in everything the local environment has to offer. On the trails you can come across Beaver dams, deer and other wildlife while being 10 minutes away from some of Vermont's best shopping. If you have a love for hunting or fly fishing, the Orvis shooting school, fly fishing school and flag ship store are only a few miles away and can be booked using their website. Manchester is one of the best towns in Vermont and has something for everyone. The Cottage is an amazing home-base to explore everything this town and the surrounding area has to offer while giving you the comfort of your own space to recharge for your next adventure.
