About this farm stay rental
Our beautiful and comfortable 1850s family farmhouse is modernly equipped and available for rent through the seasons. Skiing conditions in Okemo mountain should remain good until mid-April!
Close to Okemo and Magic Mountain, surrounded by mountains, woods and streams, and located in the historical village of Chester, walk to local shops and restaurants and enjoy the surroundings.
The farmhouse was built in 1850s and has been renovated and maintained to high modern standards. A north section of the house is still subject to renovation and not included with the rent, nevertheless, the rented section of the house comprises more than twelve rooms on two floors.

The other living room is on the second floor, and it is a mandatory "pass through" to access the 2 bedrooms on that floor. Additionally, one living room chair can be converted to a twin bed.

The house and property is beautiful. There is plenty of space for everyone and is well stocked with dishes, cutlery, and bedding. The house is nicely situated where it is in walking distance to town which is very nice. We also discovered a path through the park across the street where you can get down to the williams middle branch river and we were able to walk up a bit with our dog. There is also free transportation in the town via bus called the moo-ver (lol) which is also convenient. House has no central a/c but had plenty of fans and cooled off nicely at nighttime.Owners are very nice and easy to communicate with. Would love to stay again.

We were a group of four retired adults wanting to ski Okemo and found the property just as described. The location is perfect with Okemo just 15 minutes away and restaurants and necessity shopping close as well. The home is very well stocked with the essentials to make yourself right at home.

We took a long weekend in Chester to ski at Magic and hangout with family. The house offered nice spaces for adults and kids to hangout separately and eat all together. The rooms offered nice overnight privacy and space as well as a full "sleep over room" for the little kids.

Great house for a group of friends to stay at for a ski weekend. The house is right off the main road with restaurants, bars, and shops walking distance. Pat and Cindy were very communicative and went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay. We would definitely stay here again!
