This luxury property situated directly in town is a hidden gem. There are 3 levels of living so ideal if you need to have some privacy from the other guests in your house. The top floor has a beautiful master bedroom with sitting area and bathroom, stocked with epsom salt and a huge tub that you actually want to soak in because this entire property is meticulously clean. Second floor has another bathroom and shower along with a living room with a pull out couch that my 15 year old daughter said was more omfrtabe than her bed at home....bottom floor has a full kitchen and living area which is stocked with every pot and pan you will need, but isn't overcrowded. They even have olive oil and balsamic vinegar if you want to go next door to the Italian market to grab some fresh bread....There is a beautiful patio overlooking a nearby creek. Would absolutely stay here over and over again.

The Barn on Main is conveniently located in the center of Manchester, next to several great restaurants and stores. Only 25 min to Stratton and 15 to Bromley. The house is darling, modern and well appointed with everything you need. Bed is super comfortable, family room cozy, kitchen had all tools you need. It also looks out onto a river and has a great back patio. Bonus: high speed EV charging across the street. We truly enjoyed our stay!

The Barn on Main is light and bright and very comfortable. The kitchen is well-equipped - everything you need. It's right in downtown Manchester, but still very quiet, with a lovely view of the Battenkill from the rear windows and patio.

This place is amazing. I want to be selfish and not share with others, but truly a wonderful stay for a VT getaway. Melina and Mike were very responsive and wonderful hosts. We will be back.

We were in Manchester during foliage season for a hiking trip in Vermont. The place was nicely appointed. We were greeted with a beautiful flower arrangement in front entry way and delicious snacks. Location was perfect in the center of town. We visit Manchester a few times an year and plan to stay here again. This was a perfect find.

The home is in a great location. There is a parking spot right out front with easy access to the home. Inside, there are three nicely laid-out levels with two very-clean and tasteful bathrooms. The basement level kitchen-dining/living area is comfortable and looks out over the back yard. Definitely will stay here again.

This is our second trip to the Barn on Main and I can’t wait for the third! This renovated barn is picture perfect. Beautifully decorated, well stocked, spotless clean and the most amazing location right on Main St. in downtown Manchester. Mike and Melina are responsive and friendly - we love this place!

What a beautiful house! From the stunning design to the little touches like fresh flowers from the backyard, everything was perfect. The location can't be beat, either, with the property downtown and in walking distance of many different shops. (Do note that if you have trouble with stairs, this property is three stories so you'll be walking up and down the stairs often.) BEST VRBO I've ever stayed at.

Gorgeous home and excellent location
The house is beautifully decorated and has every convenience needed. Great location for walking in Manchester for shopping and dining. Close enough for Bennington College visits too.

My husband and I stayed at the Barn on Main to celebrate our birthdays. Our stay was perfect and the Barn and its location exceeded our expectations. The Barn has 3 levels and is beautifully decorated. It was fully stocked and all of our needs were anticipated. The owner left treats including birthday cupcakes. When inside, you feel like you are in a beautiful secluded area and we watched the snow fall out back through the full back windows on the lower level. When you go out the front door, you are right on main street with an Italian market, artisan’scoop, bookstore and other unique and boutique stores. We are already trying to plan our next visit! The owner were extremely responsive!

In the heart of Manchester village, close to everything. When you go inside, you’re away from it all with views of the river and woods out the big back windows. Spa-like surroundings include fresh flowers and bath salts. Simply perfect.

Really a fantastic house and set up. Very warm and right in the heart of the center. So many amazing restaurants and shops feet away. House was well decorated and updated from head to toe. Would have no problem coming back!

This was a beautiful place to stay with a stream out back and a quaint Down town out front. A beautiful time of the year to visit Manchester and the hosts were exceptional!

Easy breezy
We had a very enjoyable stay in Manchester. The house was close to everything we came for - a dinner at The Reluctant Panther, and a wedding at the Taconic, but it's also situated at an easy drive from town or a nice long walk or comfortable bike ride to town.
The house was perfect for my needs and my husband's but a little hard with so many stairs for my Dad who has terrible balance - but I knew this going into it, it's an older home with charm, so it wasn't a surprise, just something to consider if you are traveling with folks challenged in this way. Parking was easy, and the place was cozy and clean, and the owner was accessible via text. Thanks for letting us stay in your property!

Convenient, private, unique getaway
Loved everything about the place, except the second bedroom really is a sitting/TV area, even though the couch is a sleeper. It should be noted in description. Maybe some kind of TV in the kitchen as well.
Overall, we would definitely come back.

This property is well located in the center of Manchester. It is a three story house with private, front door parking. The house Isabella-stocked and beautifully furnished with a contemporary country motif. Everything is extremely well kept including a lovely rear garden overlooking the stream running behind the property. This property truly offers you all of the comforts of home and then some. We were sad to leave.

When we first pulled up to the house, we were taken aback by the front- no windows- just a door. But once inside, we were very pleased and impressed by the lovely and fun decor, more than adequate supplies (towels, coffee, even some candy), and rooms. The host was very responsive when I had questions. Easy check-in via door code. The location is in town (a la no windows in front)- with a very private back yard, and plenty of windows throughout. This is an ideal home for a couple get away, within walking distance to restaurants, shopping and bookstore. My only gripe is the high curb on the driveway entrance- hard to navigate without scrapping the bottom of my car. Otherwise- greta location, home and host.

I’ve stayed in numerous VRBO properties. A few have been truly excellent, but none have met and surpassed my expectations as this Manchester rental did. The space was impeccably designed, spacious, quiet and VERY clean and well maintained. The outdoor terrace overlooking the river and the central location of the property were terrific bonuses. Melina was timely in her responses and made me feel very welcome. I look forward to my next opportunity to stay in this wonderful property.
