About this house rental

WELCOME!
The Mansfield House is a lovely and spacious mountain home located on the western slope of Mt. Mansfield and near Smugglers Notch/Madonna Mt., Bolton Valley, and Cochran ski areas (20 minute drive to each). A vacation here is filled with a wide range of seasonal activities for the active and the relaxed.

INTERESTED IN SKIING STOWE?
While we are very close to Stowe Mountain Resort as the crow flies, we're actually on the *other side* of Mount Mansfield. In the summer, driving to Stowe takes 30 min via 108 to the north. In the winter, you have to go south to I-89 which takes 60 min. From our house, the closest downhill skiing option is Smugglers Notch Resort, which is 20 min away. If you're just interested in the town of Stowe, it's a 45-minute drive whether you go north or south.

SURROUNDINGS
Our 100-acre property is mostly wooded and borders Underhill State Park to the east. The two main trailheads for Mt. Mansfield are just a 5 minute drive from the house. Feel free to explore the property but keep in mind that there are two other homes in the vicinity with full-time residents: a cottage across the large driveway from the main house (inhabited by the property owners) and our neighbors' house just up the hill from our pond.

COVID POLICIES
We are not currently hosting any weddings or parties. Sanitized linens will be provided. The property is now unavailable for 48 hours between reservations.

BEDROOM HIGHLIGHTS
There are two sleeping areas at opposite ends of the house. Two bedrooms (queen and king beds) are at the northern end of the house, with a shared bathroom featuring a field stone wall, tile, and walk-in shower. The southern end of the house features a bunkroom and 2 queen bedrooms, one with a twin trundle bed. There is a shared bathroom for these rooms, featuring a Vermont slate floor, vessel sink, and tub/shower. Also at this end of the house is the Master bedroom with king Tempur-pedic bed and a large en suite bathroom with walk-in shower and sweeping view of Mount Mansfield. All the bedrooms have been recently renovated and each has lovely linens and quilts.

INTERIOR HIGHLIGHTS
The interior features cathedral ceilings, a large living room with field stone fireplace, and a field stone wall in the dining area, as well as wide oak and brick floors. Lovely views delight visitors from every window.

An open kitchen/dining area is at the center of the house. The 12-person birdseye maple dining room table has a sweeping view of Mt. Mansfield. This open area is wonderful for group cooking and socializing while enjoying the colors of a magnificent sunset.

There is a den off the kitchen with a second fireplace, sofa bed, and a second TV - nice for movies, cozy chats, or quiet reading. This space is also wonderful for children's movies, board games, or a quick escape from the bustle of the household.

We also take great pride in a very clean house - all the rooms are cleaned professionally using only all natural products.

OUTDOOR HIGHLIGHTS
The outdoor hot tub is available for soaking, while gazing up at Mt. Mansfield, or the stars.

The pond is stocked with trout yearly and is great for fly-fishing and swimming.

The one acre pond, great for swimming and floating (bring your own please), sandy beach, beautifully landscaped lawns and gardens, and walking/XC skiing (or snowshoe) trails offer both activity and quiet, suitable for the energetic and the serene.

Looking for the country life and time with family or friends? You will love this setting.

Two very popular Vermont destinations are close: Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream Factory is 30 minutes away, and the Shelburne Museum, a large and fascinating 'living' museum is 45 minutes away. Lake Champlain, UVM, and St. Michaels College are all within easy reach. Hunting is possible in the area but not on the property please. Space for badminton, croquet, and soccer behind house, visible from kitchen and living room. Large swimming pond in front field.

What a wonderful place for a family vacation! The large home, wonderful outdoor spaces, and view of our favorite mountain made for a memorable and comfortable stay. Betsy was available for questions. The air conditioning was key during a hot and humid week.

The property is beautiful and wonderfully maintained. There are incredible views, very much enhanced by the wonderfully maintained gardens. It feels quiet and peaceful, while still being close to amenities. The kitchen is unusually well equipped for a rental property - made cooking very easy and fun. The hosts were kind, thoughtful and accessible.

We stayed at this house with all of our children and grandchildren. the layout of the house was awesome, with bedrooms/bathrooms for parents and children on one side, and bedrooms/bathroom for childfree on the other side. There is a large kitchen/dining/living area in the middle for congregating, and a separate den that made a great play area for the children.

It was a delight to stay at Mansfield House. We loved the location, the ability to walk in the surrounding woods, and seeing the deer frisking in the field. We were pleased with the numerous power strips which allowed us to use our Ott lights to enhance the lights at night, so important for aging eyes when knitting. We feel the owner should be aware that we saw numerous bugs inside the house both lady bugs and what we think were carpenter ants. We would choose Mansfield House again. Susan

Thank you Betsy and Patricia for a wonderful 4 days at your Underhill location. Beautiful farm setting with views of Mt Mansfield. Saw many deer but no bears, unfortunately.

We had a group of 15 adults get together for a celebratory weekend and the house fit us all very comfortably. Tons of space to lounge indoors and the surrounding property was expansive and gorgeous. We enjoyed our time walking the nature trails around the property and spent time around the fire pit down by the pond. I hope to visit again!
