About this house rental

Nestled in Vermont, this lovely house for $476 per night is a fantastic choice for your next trip. Your home is the beautifully restored historic French inspired barn, built in the 1820's, which has wide-plank floors, hand-hewn beams, soaring ceilings, stone fireplaces and New England charm. Perfect for a romantic getaway, a country vacation for a small family or a quiet retreat to nature, Boorn Brook Farm is the quintessential Vermont experience! Once the country estate and studio of famed painter and fly fishing enthusiast Ogden Pleissner, Boorn Brook Farm has been restored to its original splendor. Situated on 53 acres of open meadows and old apple orchards with stunning 360 degree mountain views, Boorn Brook Farm is protected by Lye Brook National Forest, yet within 5 minutes of the town centers of Manchester and Manchester Center. Boorn Brook Farm is also the new home of Green Mountain Falconry School! In the summer, take falconry lessons on site, swim in the spring-fed pond with a beach, play tennis on the private court next to the Barn, hike on the Farm's private trails or in the bordering Lye Brook Wilderness, fish in the brook and the on-site trout pond , or simply relax in one of the hammocks. Autumn is a magical time at Boorn Brook Farm where the mountains behind and in front of the Farm come alive with color. All the attractions of summer are available except with the need for a sweater in the evening! Return home to build a fire in the stone fireplace, bake some bread in the stone bread oven in the fully equipped kitchen, play a game of pool in the game room, sip some hot chocolate and then watch the sun set behind Equinox Mountain from the outdoors firepit or the hot tub, right outside your master bedroom! In the winter, skate on the pond, sled on the hill, snowshoe or cross country ski on the back trails, ski or snowboard at nearby Stratton or Bromley Mountains. Nearby are sleigh rides, great restaurants and shopping in Manchester, which is a short 5 minute ride from Boorn Brook Farm. Children and adults alike will also enjoy our farm pets, our adorable goats, Pan and Axel! Dogs are welcome here on the farm.

Spent 3 nights in this unique, renovated, rustic barn for New Years Weekend. Everything we needed for a fun, romantic weekend. The town is quaint with plenty to do. We took a class in hot glass blowing & came home with awesome souvenirs. At the barn, we hiked the property, enjoyed the hot tub, made roaring fires, enjoyed the atmosphere, cooked, enjoyed wine & the decorated Christmas Tree. Our host Jeff was very helpful & accommodating. The goats & chickens were so fun to interact with. Nothing remotely negative to mention. Thank you Jeff.

The listing doesn’t do this property justice! The renovated barn is cozy and spacious, and well-appointed for a family. We look forward to staying again in the summer season.

The Historic Renovated Barn at Boorn Brook Farm was even better than we expected. The property is beautifully nested in the hills just outside of Manchester and the rental is well maintained, both inside the barn and outside the barn. It's obvious a lot of love has gone into this property and I would highly recommend staying here if you're looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway to read, relax around the fireplace, or just enjoy the fresh air.

Our experience at Boorn Brook Barn was amazing, taking in the historic beauty of the site that was built 200 years ago and the surrounding mountains dressed in bright red and yellow , all stunning, all breathtaking. Jeff was there every step of the way when we needed help or just a simple advice, he is a very fine person. There are tons of activities to be had, playing tennis, billiards, basketball, laying lazily at the perfect green grass, eating breakfast and dinner outdoors and wishing that every moment will forever last. We plan to visit every autumn, forgot to tell you about Manchester town a few minutes drive, we shopped till we dropped...it was memorable!
