About this house rental
About Trout Pond:
A perfect getaway for family and friends! Very private yet right in town, this spacious home is located within walking distance to Manchester’s upscale outlets, famed Northshire Bookstore, and the Orvis Flagship store, as well as numerous restaurants, grocery store and quaint local shops. 10 minutes from Bromley Mountain and 25 minutes from Stratton and Magic Mountains, hit the slopes or simply retreat to this 3-acre property and enjoy the surrounding mountain views and active stream in a location that offers extraordinary access to the amenities that will make your stay a relaxing and memorable one.
This 4300-square foot home is large enough for hosting multiple families and entertaining while still providing a sense of togetherness for couples and small families alike. A rustic great room with exposed A-frame beams features an impressive stacked-stone fireplace flanked by French doors leading to a bluestone patio. Make a fire inside and relax while you take in extraordinary views of Equinox Mountain. The living room flows into a large gourmet kitchen equipped with Viking and Sub-Zero appliances, a center island, granite counters, and farmhouse sink. A wine refrigerator, Nespresso coffee maker, and wireless Sonos music system are just a few of the amenities that round out this ideal living space.
There is a separate dining room with seating for 8-10, as well as a study with a Queen sleeper sofa and gas fireplace – perfect for a little quiet time to enjoy a book, or spend time with family and friends playing one of our many board games for young and old alike. Warming radiant flooring and an abundance of Vermont touches can be found throughout the first floor.
The master bedroom is on the first floor and features a king bed and walk-in closet, as well as an en-suite private bath with separate claw-foot tub and walk-in shower. On the second floor are three additional bedrooms, each with en-suite private baths: one with a king bed and views of Green Mountain; the second with a queen bed plus twin-over-full bunk beds and walk-in closet; and a third with a queen bed that stretches out before French doors leading to a balcony with breathtaking views of Equinox Mountain.
Down the hall from the bedrooms are twin doors leading to a large, inviting rec room with an oversized sectional and 65” smart TV that is perfect for gaming and family movies.
For additional entertainment, enjoy outdoor living with an dining set for 8 and stainless steel Weber grill. The comfortable unfinished full basement space is equipped with shuffle board and corn hole courts.
Additionally, Trout Pond features a large heated 2-car garage with ample ski storage. At the end of your stay, take advantage of the garage’s central vacuum for a quick clean up before you go.
Whether you are looking to make memories with family and friends, or simply get away and enjoy Vermont’s finest, Trout Pond has everything you could want!

It's a great house. Plenty of space, well maintained, nice amenities. it's close to town yet far enough off the main road to be quiet at night. We would rent again.

We loved our stay in VT. This property is comfortable, clean and nicely appointed. Located right in the heart of beautiful Manchester, it was perfect for our family. Beds were comfy and the layout of the home lends itself to privacy for everyone. Our young people really loved the upstairs game room! Check in was super easy! We would definitely return.

Our stay at this peaceful sunny home was the perfect setting for a summer weekend wedding hosted at the Manchester Inn. Four couples attending a Friday through Sunday rehearsal dinner, wedding, reception, post reception and breakfast at the Inn had everything we needed to prepare for events and relax as if at home.The hosts anticipated our every need with ironing boards on each floor and bathrooms for each bedroom, so everyone could get ready at once.

We’ve stayed here several times and will definitely be back! The location is completely private but still within walking distance to downtown shops and restaurants. We also love that all bedrooms have their own bathrooms! Katie is one of the kindest hosts you’ll ever come across and will bend over backwards to make sure your stay is perfect.

I don’t know where to start because there is so much to say about our host, Kate, her thoughtfulness, the house, the location & the truly wonderful time that we enjoyed there. The house, terrace and grounds are beautiful, outside is immaculate, so pretty with views of the mountains and inside is spotless, warm, comfortable and welcoming. Everything you can possibly think of is provided for you so you have a worry free stay & feel like you’re in your own home, including a tray with every kind of battery, a walk in closet with extra towels, sheets, comforters & pillows. The bedroom with bunk beds has blackout curtains, there is a high chair & even a port-a crib & high chair! This was an early birthday celebration for me with my two sons and their families; we felt right at home from the minute we walked in, especially as Kate had left me a lovely gift of a cake, a bottle of wine & a balloon. What a welcome!! My granddaughters loved the basement with the Corn hole game, Jenga, ping pong and basketball. Despite their young ages, they tried everything!! There is a wonderful family room upstairs with a fabulous, comfy sectional couch, game table & tons of Wi games, nothing has been left out! We were blessed with perfect weather & being able to walk into town or to Shaws to pick up a few things, added to how perfect the location was. We felt so at home, Kate was responsive & concerned and everything added up to us having a truly wonderful time (I ran out of characters to say more!)

The house was amazing and couldn’t be in a better location. Walking distance to all of the restaurants and shops in town and a quick drive to Bromley and Stratton! We had 10 people in the house (6 adults, 4 kids) and there was plenty of room for everyone. We’re already thinking about booking this property again!

What a wonderful house. Plenty of room to spread out and sleep comfortably. Beds were cozy. En-suite bathrooms are so nice. House stocked with everything you need.

Katie made what could have been a real upset to our 5 days together (hot water heater leak) into just a bump in the road. The 8 of us had a great time at the house and in the Manchester area! Beautiful home!

The house is well situated to walk to town and set in a beautiful location with great views and outdoor patio. House is clean and recently updated and has several fun amenities (video game table, ping-pong, arcade basketball). Owner and/or property manager were available and responded quickly to our inquiries. Look forward to staying there again.

Our family just returned from this fabulous home and loved every minute of our stay. This was our 2nd year renting. The house has everything you'll ever need to make your stay wonderful. We’re looking forward to returning again to create more family memories together! Thank you, Kate & Dan, for sharing your beautiful home with us!!!
