When evening falls, gather around the fire pit for stargazing, marshmallow roasting, and great conversation.

Vermont is home to a lot of wildlife including bears, coyotes, foxes, spiders, etc. You may encounter some of them during your stay. To keep these wild encounters outside we appreciate your cooperation in keeping screens closed when you have the doors open and making sure all food and garbage are properly stowed. Please lock all doors at night as bears have been spotted in our area.

Our home is equipped with three outdoor security cameras. One at our kitchen door and two on the porch. These cameras are for the safety of our guests and helps us keep an eye on the property between guest stays. Any tampering of these cameras is grounds for immediate eviction without refund.

Decor and furnishings may vary due to wear/tear and cleaning needs.

Amazing stay at Ranny Brook Farm

We had an absolutely amazing time at Ranny Brook Farm. Despite being right on a main road, the property feels like your own secluded little world — perfect for relaxing and unwinding. Our boys, Maverick and Moose (Gordon Setters), were in absolute heaven running free in the huge 1-acre yard. They ran hard and crashed harder every night!The humans loved the cozy fire pit, relaxing hot tub, fantastic kitchen, and the double living rooms that gave us plenty of space. My husband turned into Goldilocks, trying out a different bed every night—LOL! There was more than enough room for our family of six (two adults, two young adult kids, and two large dogs) to be comfortable and happy.The charm and character of the old home added a special touch that made our week even sweeter. Highly recommend if you want a perfect blend of comfort, space, and countryside vibes!
