About this house rental
There are so many things you will love about our home in Manchester, Vermont, but I will begin with the wonderful feeling of stress and tension escaping you the minute you walk in the door. The house has four bedrooms and two and a half baths plus two living rooms and an eat in kitchen. Located on a private road and situated high into the trees surrounded by nature. I think of it as our treetop house because looking out into the tree tops and even further out into the mountains, it is a view that you will never get tired of. The house is very light and bright with many windows to be a spectator of nature from every room. Without the stresses of daily life, you may find yourself inspired to create and cook wonderful foods to enjoy, and the kitchen is equipped with all you need. The counter height table in the kitchen doubles as a center island. The table expands to seat up to eight people at once or just set up a buffet and have the whole family stand around and enjoy. The deck has a gas grill for barbecues and a patio set for outside dining. The upper level living room has beautiful surrounding windows which helps bring the outdoors in. Once the leaves have fallen there are beautiful mountain views from both living rooms, kitchen, office and two bedrooms. There is a fireplace in the living room inviting you to enjoy a glass of wine and some Vermont Cheddar with fig spread, or just roast some marshmallows with the kids.
The rooms are all filled with comfortable beds inviting and cozy. There are two bedrooms upstairs one with a queen size bed and the other with a full size bed. The hallway bathroom has a spacious shower equipped with hand rails and a bench for those who need some extra support. Downstairs on the lower level there is a second living room with beautiful surrounding windows similar to the living room upstairs. This living room contains a queen size sofa bed. There is a TV with Xfinty cable, DVD player, and a table for gaming, card playing or just to set out some snacks. There are one and half baths downstairs. The full bath has a shower/bathtub for the little ones. The third bedroom on the lower level has two twin size beds and the fourth bedroom has a queen size bed.
There is an bright office with many windows to work on your laptop and keep up with the outside world, or for the kids to finish up their homework. Xfinty cable provides cable TV, telephone and wireless internet. There is also a full size washer and dryer in the mud room. The house features an attached garage for easy entry into the house.
Now with all this in mind you are in Manchester Center, centrally located to enjoy skiing, hiking, fishing, relaxing at the lake, or just enjoying all the wonderful shops and restaurants Manchester has to offer. Bromley Mountain is a short 6 miles away and Stratton Mountain only 15 miles away. Vermont Summer Festival is 6 miles away, Emerald Lake State Park is 8 miles away and Outlet Shopping is only 3 miles away. There are two major grocery stores in town Shaws and Price Chopper. Manchester’s own Dana L. Tompkins Recreational Park has fields, tennis courts, walking path, playground, skateboard park, basketball courts and in the winter enjoy cross country skiing and snowshoeing. You can go hiking at nearby Prospect Rock Trail and Lyle Brook Falls Trailhead and don’t forget to visit Dorset Farmers Market every Sunday. Not only will you enjoy your stay in our Vermont home but you will quickly realize how much you miss it here and want to come back again!

We had the most wonderful holiday get-away at this property. Situated with a beautiful view of the mountains, the home is extremely comfortable and inviting. From the spacious layout, cozy furnishings and linens to the well stocked kitchen for cooking, it is perfect. Located minutes from Manchester Center shops and restaurants as well as Bromley Mountain, it was perfect for us. The host is very responsive and lovely to work with. Anytime in the Manchester area, this will be our first choice by far!

Beautiful Autumn Weekend
We had an absolutely beautiful time at this house! Centrally located but yet nestled in the woods, it was easy to travel to the local sites and eateries but quiet and private.
The two floors of living space as perfect for socializing and the riveter time. Extremely roomy, there was plenty of space while feeling cozy.
We will definitely be back!

Great Spot!
I stayed here with some friends for a fishing weekend and it was a perfect spot. Hosts were helpful and made check in and check out very easy. The house if very clean with plenty of space for larger groups. Nice back deck for summer dinners. While the house is quiet and private, it is also an easy drive to town. We would definitely stay here again.

Great House close to center of Manchester
Quiet street, beautiful setting, perfect winter getaway. Family of 4 stayed here, really could have shared with another family. Kids had the downstairs to themselves while the adults had the upstairs. Quick drive to Manchester Center for shopping and restaurants while other days were spent skiing at Stratton.

A perfect Manchester getaway
The house was clean and well equipped. Our only regret was that our stay was too short. The location allowed us to be away from he town yet only minutes from Manchester's fine selection of restaurants. The fall foliage was nearly at its peak. We cancelled our hotel reservations so that we'd be safer during covid. The house accommodations exceeded our expectations. Communication with the owners was positive, informative, and quick. We plan to return.

Lovely place!
This is a perfect size house for two families with great layout and we really enjoyed the fireplace and eating on the deck. There was plenty of kitchenware and all very good quality (not cheap). The host was very communicative and flexible, which we really appreciated. We had a wonderful time overall and would definitely stay there again!

Relaxing week in the Green Mountains
Spacious, fully equipped house surrounded by natural forest. We were looking for a place that was quiet but close enough to a small town and this worked perfectly as we enjoyed some of the amenities Manchester offers.

Wonderful Weekend Away
Our previous VRBO fell through (accidental double booking by owner) two days before we were supposed to travel up; we found this amazing place. It was a definite blessing in the long run! The house and the layout were amazing and perfect for two families to stay. Just a 5 minute drive to Bromley mountain and super super clean!! Would recommend over and over! The communication and efficiency were incredible.

Another Fantastic Weekend
Thank you again for allowing us to stay in your lovely home. We enjoyed a very comfortable stay, again! House is perfect for 3 families and we had tremendous snow for fresh tracks. Watched the NFL games on the giant tv in front of the roaring fire. A spectacular weekend all around.

Perfect place
This was the perfect place for a weekend wedding. It accommodated 6 adults, family and friends. Beds are fantastic. Beautiful setting. My only hesitation was that in the pictures of the place I saw no photos of the bathrooms so I was a little concerned. The bathrooms were outstanding! Big, clean, new. I hope the owners add photos at some point. Thanks for a great stay! Elizabeth

Wonderful home in wonderful Manchester
We were here for two weeks for the horse show and this was the perfect home for our stay! It was well stocked with everything we needed and comfortably fit 4 adults and 3 children. We were super close to town and within short distance to the horse show. The owner was quick to respond to any questions and very nice to deal with. We have stayed in many other homes away from home and this one was the best by far! We would be happy to stay here again!

Peaceful setting but convenient
The house was very clean and perfect for our family! Natural light was plentiful, great reading lights and plenty of space for my family of five! All of the furniture was in great condition. The setting was peaceful, but only 5 minutes from Manchester Center and 10 minutes to great hiking.

Beautiful, well-appointed, clean and convenient!
We had a great experience in this lovely home. One week before our trip a friend broke her ankle. It was a wonderful surprise to find that this home was accessible - in every way! Our week-end was enhanced by the beauty of this home, it's location and it's cleanliness and charm. We would definitely go back. Great, very responsive hosts. Thank you!!

Great property and convenient location to manchester Center and Bromley Mountain
The property is much larger inside than it appears when you drive up. Everything was in good working order and very clean. The location is about 1/2 way between beautiful Manchester Center and Bromley Mountain. The deck and 2 sun rooms are very relaxing spots overlooking Equinox Mountain. The weekend we were there ( August 2018 ) our grandkids and their parents stayed downstairs and the upstairs air-conditioning did not cool the lower level bedrooms very well. Fortunately, we brought extra fans, which helped. The yard is well maintained and and all facilities are great. Thanks for great communication and a nice getaway for our family

Beautiful Vermont Getaway!
This house was exactly what we were looking for when myself and 4 girlfriends wanted to escape for a spa weekend. The spacious, updated bedrooms, working fireplace, and mountain views were just a few of the highlights. It’s also conveniently located to downtown Manchester- a quick 5 minute drive to restaurants, inns, and the Equinox spa where we spent a bit of time. Janet was incredibly responsive throughout the entire booking process and stay. Would highly recommend!
