The space
The home offers 9 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms and plenty of space for up to 26 people to stay very comfortably. The entire house has a natural ambiance, from the golden-brown wood that forms the walls and ceiling, to the unique wood logs used to make the beds, to the tasteful rustic decorations, all with luxury in mind.
Outside is a lake that is fed by two natural sources, the water is clean! A hot tub is also available for your enjoyment. A large deck has a BBQ for the grill master in your group and has incredible views of the lake, and a fire pit for burning wood that you can find in the nearby forest. A tennis court is also available for the athletes, and there is a gazebo for relaxing.
The swimming pool is next to the house, surrounded by a lovely stone patio and furniture for your relaxation and enjoyment!
We also just recently made a 2 mile trail on the property! It circles the entire property and is completely private. It’s great to get your daily walk in and of course spend time with family and friends.
The kitchen has new state-of-the-art appliances, granite countertops, and is stocked with everything you need to keep your crew well fed and happy.
The family room has a large fireplace with plenty of places to store wood, and the lower level has a large game room that has a pool table, poker table, knock hockey, chess sets and a dartboard. There are also a couple of bars in the home from which to serve everyone their favorite beverages. This home was designed to ensure maximum enjoyment and entertainment for all its guests.
The house has two master bedrooms with in-suite bedrooms, one is located above the garage with its own gorgeous bathroom, living area and privacy, the second is the main house and has an amazing bathroom and balcony.
The Perfect Day
Wake up and put on a pot of coffee, and watch as the new day announces itself as the caffeine warms and wake you up, all the while taking in the view of the gorgeous private lake. Use the fresh eggs you purchased at a local farm to make egg sandwiches, or omelets, or scrambled eggs, along with some fresh berries or other fruit.
Here in winter? Then get ready for a fun day of skiing! Head to the slopes to shred some late morning snow, then have lunch at home (you’re close enough!) or find a nice bistro for a sandwich. After you have rested those legs, head on back to the slopes for an afternoon session.
If you are here in the spring, summer or fall, grab those clubs and hit the link, or your fishing pole and test your skills as an angler on the best lakes and river that Vermont has to offer. Do you like to support local artists? There are plenty of art galleries and shops to find that next perfect piece for your home. There are also wineries and breweries to tour, if that is more your speed.
Once the day starts to conclude, it is time for games! Deal out the cards for a Texas Hold’em poker tournament, or rack up the pool table with bragging rights on the line. For those looking to relax, serve a round of your group’s favorite beverages as you and your group have lovely conversation on the large outdoor deck or in the gazebo, or while soaking your muscles in the hot tub. Or you can start a fire in the outdoor firepit and reminisce about the memories you have just made while you snack on some treats while watching as the delightful Vermont sunset announces the conclusion of the day.
If you are a writer or painter, the property is absolutely fantastic to minimizing distractions, providing vistas for inspiration, and plenty of places to set up the typewriter to start the next great American novel. Put on a little background music, and get creating!
