The pool and hot tub made this stay great for our kids!
I did contact the owners about the overwhelming smell of curry in the home and some general cleanliness issues. Thankfully, the beds and towels were clean so everyone was comfortable.
Our kids had a ball, so in the end, that’s what mattered most to us!

Our extended family was warm and cozy (it was 5 degrees when we arrived) in this lovely country home. Much food was served in-house and the kitchen was up to the task. We spent most of our home time together in the lovely family room (lots of board games and watching videos we had recorded on the slopes during the day). Even our elderly dog was comfy in the space. We'd return again in a heartbeat.

The location is perfect: it appears very secluded but isn't so far out that it makes you nervous. Very close to everything Killington: As close to the access rd. without being right on it. The exterior is a beautiful home that is well kept with gorgeous grounds, a pool, hot tub, fire pit and front and side decks. The interior would be described as "university professor vacation home" As it is intelligently laid-out and decorated. Great communication with owners. This would be a great vacation spot for any season and any weather.

From start to finish, this was easily our best experience with renting a home for a short time. We have been going to the same place for 17 years in North Conway and they have been slipping the last 5-6 years.
This place though, they had a hand written note for us, candies, coffee and playing cards all donning the Killington logos. The beds were incredibly comfortable, luxurious pillows and linens. Ample amount of towels, offered laundry on site with soaps in the showers. The kids loved the use of the pool and hot tub. The adults enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit and Super Mario games best probably, lol.
I was most impressed with the kitchen. The knives were so sharp, the kitchen included all the things we could have possibly needed and more. All of great quality and plenty of them too so we didn't have to worry with the amount of people we had there.
The location was primo for activities and meals out and about. Truly a great experience. Dan and Holly do an amazing job and their building manager came promptly to supply us with additional wood within the hour and was so friendly and helpful, gave us the low down of the local places to go eat and hike.
Such a great place!

A great 3 days with family at The Country Bear. Skiing on Saturday. Easter Sunday sunrise service at The Peak was the highlight.
Great house — roomy, great character, super location. Lots of room for our group with everything you’d need. Even better than we expected!!
Dan and Holly were great hosts. Regularly checked in to be sure everything met our needs.
I’d highly recommend this house!!

So close to Killington and such a lovely set of hosts! Daniel and Holly were amazing to communicate with and super responsive (more than I was). They checked in multiple times as there was a lot of snow over the stay (loved it as we were there for skiing!)
The hosts were very proactive and did a great job ensuring the property was maintained. The house itself was super cute and a great overall experience. Dan and Holly make sure all the small things you expect from a Vacation home are there such as towels (bath and hot-tub) and all the fixings in the kitchen and around the home. Would definitely return with my group and recommend to friends and family! 5/5

House was great for a group of friends for a ski trip to Killington. The house has a ton of character and with 5 bedrooms provided us with a lot of space. Location is a few minutes drive to Killington. Owner was great to deal with and very responsive. Would look to book here again if headed back to Killington.

We had a great time at the house, can’t beat the location for skiing Killington. Hosts were super responsive and welcoming, hot tub and fire places were great for relaxing after a day on the slopes. We also had fun with the various games in the living room. Will be back next year!

House was clean and very welcoming. The house has a lot of charm with interesting details throughout. We are seasoned vets at Killington and the location of this house is great. The owners were responsive and I trust they would take care of any issues, should they arise. The kitchen and bathrooms were appropriately organized and stocked. Would not hesitate to stay at the property again.
