Excellent property. Had 10 of us there for a reunion and it was the perfect size. Plenty of places to sleep, it was clean, great lounging areas, and it couldn’t have been in a more beautiful location. Everything we wanted and needed and made our time terrific. Everyone was happy with it. Thank you!

Had a great stay in this hillside chalet for a family wedding weekend at the Inn at round barn. Property was very clean and comfortable with amazing views off the back deck and very well appointed. Hope to be back possibly for a ski trip as the fireplace and set up make for a perfect large group ski accommodation. Host was very responsive and timely with ensuring we had all information in advance for both check in and out. Amazing property!!

This was our second stay at this property. The home is spacious with plenty of sleeping options. The kitchen is well stocked, and the dining room table pulls out to accommodate a large crowd! We were in the area celebrating our son’s graduation from Norwich University. This home was the perfect space for enjoying the weekend with our family!

This is a very special house with awe inspiring views of the Green Mountains. If you are a skier, you can fantasize about speeding down the trails you will see from the deck but we non-skiers never tired of just enjoying the mountains with coffee in the morning or with a bread and cheese picnic on the deck or at sunset. This is a big house but we were a small family who felt right at home. Everything was clean and in working order and the owner was very prompt to answer questions. I can't say enough about the Vermonters who helped us out on the 4th of July when we developed car trouble. The Mad River Valley is our favorite corner of Vermont.

The house was perfect for our family ski trip to Sugarbush - Glenn was always available to answer any questions and provided lots of info about the house and the Mad River Valley - the beds were comfortable and the house was well stocked for our stay - the very charming town of Waitsfield was a few minutes from the house - you even get to go over a covered bridge to get there - and it was an easy drive to the mountain - couldn't ask for more!

Excellent chalet for a large family weekend. We stayed in the summer. Great views from the deck and perfect socializing areas. Beds were very comfortable. The property is very secluded but not too far from town. Up a few dirt roads and then a gravel driveway. Would highly recommend!

Cozy ski cabin for college friend reunion

We had such a great time staying at this VRBO. It was great location to drive to Sugarbush, grab something at the grocery store or stop at Lawsons. Driveway is steep and needed to be plowed for us to get up, but a plow guy was very close by and able to do that for us within an hour. Very cozy cabin, great for big groups.

One of the better houses we have stayed at

Great option for a large group, about 20 minutes from sugarbush slopes. Great fireplace, lots of wood, good beds, lots of space to spread out. Driveway can be tough in winter if you don't have a properly equipped vehicle (snow tires and/or AWD)

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Glenn's house. It worked very well for our family with four adult children and their partners. It was spacious, with great views of Sugarbush and Mount Ellen. We really enjoyed sitting out on the porch. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped.

Winter Stay

We had a great time staying here, it was super easy to access, and communicate with Glen. The driveway is steep so if you do not have a reliable car in the snow, be careful. The rooms were clean, the kitchen had everything we needed to fuel up before skiing. We built a fire and it was so coxy/relaxing. I would book here agin.
