Our large group (10) had comfortable accommodation, and enjoyed the lake and kayaks! The house was beautiful (and had tasteful choice in poster). There is plenty of entertainment to enjoy the summer in Vermont, including Mt Killington and some amazing local restaurants.

Property had a great location, we loved the lake access. The home was spacious and well stocked with everything except towels. I did not recall the listing saying we had to bring our own towels as that is unusual for VRBO rentals. Luckily we had family in town that let us borrow as there are not any options to buy towels close by. Everything else about the house was great and the owners were easy to communicate with.

Perfect house for a large family ski trip! We had 6 adults and 5 kids (ranging from 6 months to 7 years old). Would love to stay here again next year!

My family had an amazing time! The house is very close to Okemo. The layout makes it work nicely for multiple families to split the upper and lower rooms, and the bonus kitchen in the basement really came in handy. Lots of space to hang out. Also I have to mention the water pressure in the showers was incredible- everyone kept talking about it all week. Maria checked in with us towards the end of the trip which was just so thoughtful. We would love to come back to stay here again!

House was perfect for our group of 11. Super close (6 minutes) to Jackson Gore which is where we always start our ski days. The owner was very responsive and replied within minutes to our texts. If we have the same group size next year, we’ll definitely be back! 😊

Overall the house itself was ok. We picked it because we have a big group. The house had plenty of space and was mostly clean. It is a great location, only 5 minutes from Okemo. It mentions the dock, but there isn't a clear path, you have to walk through a snowy yard to get to it. Then when we trekked down there, the dock wasnt even cleared of snow, so you couldn't sit. We spent a ton of time looking for thefirepit only for someone to accidentally discover it completely covered in snow. We had to clear it out ourselves and put out the chairs around it. Would have been nice to have that done beforehand. One of the toughest things about the home is how loud it is when people move around. Someone walking up & down the stairs can be heard all over. The basement bedrooms are rough (1 "bedroom' didn't have a window, so not actually a br) because you hear everything! The biggest issue was the check out message from the owner filled with odd claims and outright lies. She claimed that we had a lack of respect for the home and "the house was really unusually dirty".We as a group have rented a home for 5 years and never had a complaint. We did all the required steps, stripped beds, did dishes, tidied up. She claims we didn't empty the trash, which we did and I think the "mess" was a dirty kitchen floor. For a 300 cleaning fee, we were not going to vacuum. Also, a statue was broken upon arrival, and she claims we did it. Be wary if you don't want to face false accusations.
