This was the cleanest and most thoughtful (curated amenities) rental we have ever stayed in. The location was convenient and walkable to downtown Manchester Center. If we find ourselves traveling to Manchester again in the future we will definitely stay here again!

Well done.

I’ve stayed in many different vacation rentals and this one was the cleanest, most well appointed and thought-out property I have ever stayed at. It was clear that the host truly cared about the details. Lovely spot, walkable to everything, quiet and private.

Eight consecutive years visiting Manchester in October and this VRBO was by far our favorite place to stay above them all. Our cottage was not only immaculate, but the high end linens were much appreciated. The king size bed was very comfy as well as all the furniture in the living room. The multiple shower heads, along with the heated floors, were amazing. The cookware was great and the table for two was set with fresh flowers. It was a nice surprise to find everything we needed for breakfast in the refrigerator: fresh eggs, English muffins, butter, bacon and coffee. The cottage is just a very short walk away from Main Street. Walking to restaurants, the quaint shops, the outlets and the recreational park was a breeze. The cottage itself is very private, which made for quiet relaxing evenings. We met Joanie, the owner briefly, and we found her to be very friendly and accommodating. If you are looking for the perfect stay in Manchester, don’t waste time looking any further. This place is a gem.

Great getaway

Love love love this property. Joan was very helpful from booking through the end of our stay. Comfy bed, good linens and super clean. The property has a sense of home. I loved being close to town to grab coffee in the morning at Charlies cafe. If we are in Manchester again, this is our go to spot.

Anniversary Dream Trip

We’d been planning this trip for years. I’d looked at a lot of different places but kept coming back to this little cottage. Booked it a year in advance to make sure we wouldn’t miss it. Everything about it was perfect and beautiful. I’m so thankful we were able to enjoy Vermont with this place to stay at. Owner was amazing and so sweet. When we make it back to this magical place we will be here again!

Wonderful getaway!

We stayed at Tucked In for a quick getaway in Manchester Center. The cottage is very private yet close to restaurants & retail, so everything was walkable. Very clean and tastefully decorated, it felt spacious yet cozy. Fridge was stocked with a few breakfast items. Thanks Joanie!

A real find

We have been traveling the Manchester area for 30 years, and Tucked In is one of the nicest places we've stayed. It's hard to find a one bedroom rental this new, clean and private. We cooked in a bit, and the small kitchen was well equipped. Definitely recommend this place!

Perfection!

Location, space, outdoor features, and host were the best I have experienced with a VRBO listing. You can’t be better situated in Manchester than in this property. Clean, new, well appointed and everything at your fingertips. Everything in walking distance, including a great park. Loved it.

Perfect cozy cottage!!! 😍😍

We just spent a week in this lovely cottage, very spacious for 2 people with all the amenities we needed. The location is great and we were able to walk to the town as well as short drives for great hikes and fly fishing. We also highly recommend the Thai Basil restaurant, 5 minute walk from Tucked In. 😄

Cozy and Clean!

The cottage is beautiful and well kept! It has all the amenities you need for a relaxing getaway. There are plenty of towels and the sheets are very soft. It is located right in Manchester, so it is a short walk to restaurants, cafes, shops, Walgreens, and the Northshire Bookstore, but it is tucked back from the road, so it is still very peaceful and quiet.

About the host

Hosted by Joan Burns

Host profile image
I moved here from Westchester County, NY in 2012. I lived in that area for over 40 years. During 5 of those years I was an innkeeper in the Bahamas as welI as St. Croix. I grew up coming here, almost moved here a couple of different times and in 2012, I decided to make the move. I bought this property and completely renovated it the first year I was here. At the beginning of 2014 I set out to create Tucked In. It's new and I'm excited to be back in the hospitality business. I love Manchester and I look forward to hosting you here in my new hometown.

Why they chose this property

I looked for a long time and there was something about this house and where it sat. I didn't want to be in the middle of nowhere so this was the perfect solution. My house was built in 1895 and it was built beautifully. It was in desperate need of love and that's what it got. It took some time and a little bit of aggravation but in the end, it is magnificent and stands proudly in the center of town. A neighbor across the street described it as 'shiny'

What makes this property unique

The benefits are its proximity to everything in town, the luxurious amenities in the cottage, and the comparably affordable nightly rate!
