Cozy house with easy access to Windham Ski Mountain

My family enjoyed our stay at this vacation home for our ski trip to Windham. We had everything we needed to relax after a day of skiing. The kitchen had what we needed to cook our own meals and the hosts provided very clear instructions for our stay. I plan to book this rental house for future trips to this area and would highly recommend this vacation home.

Prime location for ski

We've known this house for many years and have seen the renovations evolve. A great property, prime location for skiing either Hunter or Wyndham, and great hiking around the area. It was impeccably clean & cozy. The lovely welcome basket was a thoughtful touch. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home! We'll be back again. Cheers

Excellent!

My family and I stayed here for Father’s Day weekend and we had a blast! The house sits on a good quiet location, and we were able to get everywhere in a short amount of time. The house itself is very welcoming, and we made use of the fire pit outside. My kids loved it, even the older kids! Would definitely rent this place again.

Great Location!

This recently renovated house was a great choice for the 2019 Taste Of Country Festival at Hunter Mountain. It was a short drive away and had plenty of room for six adults. We'd definitely stay here again for future visits to the Hunter area.

Great house for a mountain get away

Located between Windham and Hunter this house was very clean, quiet, comfortable and relaxing. Recently remodeled and has high end appliances. The owners are extremely nice and take great care of their property. The welcome basket was very thoughtful and came in handy.
