About this house rental
Three story Vermont Homestead with five bedrooms exquisitely designed with an open floor concept. Large chef kitchen and a banquet dining room for groups who enjoy good food. You can also enjoy the sunset on the large deck surrounded by flower gardens or get up early and view the sunrise on the front porch overlooking the valley and Ascutney Mountain. Every season has its beauty on this property, but the view and foliage in the fall is spectacular. In the evenings you may decide to retreat to the hidden, upper stone patio surrounded by fragrant landscape. This property also offers a sugar house and sugaring in the winter and spring. If the time is right, you may also be able to enjoy our blueberry, pear or apple season. The homestead sits on the very top of 10 acres of private land with only 10 minutes to surrounding villages like Woodstock and Quechee and only 35 minutes from Killington. During the month of March, April, and May this property may be available for a discounted, monthly fee. For winter travelers, a 4-weel-drive vehicle is highly recommended.

Great place to stay for Dartmouth reunions or any gathering of friends. Stunning location and house, very friendly owners (and their dog).

Everything was great with this house. Had plenty of kitchenware and very well organized, provided certain things that everyone needs when they travel. It's also a beautiful and peaceful location. The hosts were also easy to get in touch with and responded quickly to communications. Would recommend this house to everyone.

This is the perfect house for a family. Plenty of space. Every amenity. Clean and comfortable. We did all of our cooking at the house and the Kitchen was perfect for cooks. Great range, 30" double ovens, all of the cooking gear you need. We would highly recommend this house for a family!

This house is well located -- under 10 minutes to Simon Pearce! It's a charming ride up a hilly road so the views are lovely from different rooms and several outdoor spaces. The kitchen is large and well-equipped. Quirky placement of light switches! Our host was gracious and friendly. This home worked really well for four couples (with a third-floor bedroom to spare). Thank you, Briana!

We needed a place near Hanover to stay so we could attend a memorial service for my parents. Hill Top Garden was perfect. The house is surrounded by beauty and peace. The view of Mt Ascutney looked like a Vermont postcard. Briana is a thoughtful hostess. The beds were all so comfortable with warm quilts and extra blankets in every room. I only wish I liked to cook, because the kitchen was stocked with so many neat gadgets that I am sure experienced cooks would love. I would have liked to have more time to walk and explore the property, because it offered Vermont beauty with so many places to sit and just enjoy the views. This place was exactly what we needed. Thank you Briana.

When we arrived, we were stunned at how beautiful the house is and you can tell how much love Briana has put into her home. The listing did not do the location justice.
We had everything we needed and we're so comfortable during our stay. We didn't want to leave.
Our host was communicative and helpful. The house was clean, spacious, and had so many breath taking views. I hope we can return one day.

Spacious house perfect for large groups. It has everything and more you could need. Gorgeous views and the grounds were beautiful! Perfect place for quiet mornings of coffee on the porch watching the sun rise. Fall foliage was spectacular.

Absolutely beautiful home and property on top of a hill. House also has a pretty fully stocked kitchen and even a bunch of stuff for kids. Perfect for a family!

We spent a rejuvenating week at Briana's lovely farmhouse near Quechee, Vermont.
The house was inviting, airy, and charming. We spent most mornings drinking the local coffee on the porch, watching the misty recede from the valley and hills that lay before us like a scene from a film.
Our host, Briana made everything easy and convenient to check in. The house had every amenity for a cozy family get away. We could pick fresh blueberries and Jalepeno peppers from the graden, and while it was in a relatively secluded hillside location overlooking a bucolic valley, the house was just minutes from the village of Quechee, with its quaint covered bridge, glassworks factory and falls. The Quechee state park, nature center and spectacular gorge were also just down the road. Nearby, Jake's grocery store had a delightful selection of fine foods, beer, coffee and cheeses.
The house was also just a few further miles to the charming town of Woodstock, VT. where we ate the best burgers at the White Cottage Snack Bar!
We had the perfect, end-of-summer cozy getaway with family, enjoying books, hiking, biking and pleasant evenings around the fire pit.
We definitely hope to go back.

Very clean and well designed for a group! Lovely indoor and outdoor areas for hanging out. Beautiful views and gardens. Great kitchen. Hosts are lovely and helpful. Easy to reach. Location is rural, but just a few short miles from Woodstock, Quechee, and more. Highly recommended.

This house and grounds are so beautiful and tranquil. It is private and quiet, but not far from Quechee and Woodstock. Quechee Inn was only 18 minutes away the long route due to the covered bridge being shut down, yet we were out in the country to enjoy seeing deer and wild turkey meander around the grounds. The hardscaping and landscaping are museum quality, all done by our host who lives nearby. She invited us to pick blueberries as they were in season. As sweet as candy and delicious. The furnishings are all first rate, the house has all high end finishes, and equipment for cooking or just relaxing is high quality and plentiful. We were looking for a property that would accommodate our family for a 4 night stay and it was perfect. Without the light pollution we had the opportunity to star gaze the milky way, constellations, meteors, and the International space station. If you want a place to get away and relax, yet be close to most activities the area offers, this is it.

We had another wonderful stay here (our 2nd) and not only are the hosts extremely helpful, but the home is beautiful and the amenities are top notch. Thanks for another great ski vacation!

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend getaway to this beautiful property. The home is spacious and beautiful with a lovely large open kitchen. We love the maple syrup made by the owners.
The driveway is steep but very well maintained. We had no issues with four wheel drive and snow tires.
Overall a perfect getaway. I highly recommend this home. I want to go back in the fall because I’m sure the foliage is stunning to see from the front porch.

My family and I spent a glorious Thanksgiving at this amazing property. The home is gorgeous as is the property it sits on. Glorious views of Mt. Ascutney from a sumptuous front porch. The owner couldn’t be nicer or more accommodating. We liked that there was no TV in the living room. Plenty of other TVs to watch the game on. The family had a lovely time gathering and playing board games in the peaceful living room.

This home is lovely. Very well equipped and spacious. The furnishings are attractive and welcoming. Open floor plan and yet several intimate nooks. Several large decking areas with comfortable outdoor furniture. The view is spectacular. The property is extremely private. The home and property were cllean and well maintained.

Thank you for such a relaxing stay! We thoroughly enjoyed the property- from the well-stocked kitchen, cozy living space, and stunning views we were so happy we picked it.

We absolutely loved staying at this property and Brianna was an incredible host. We were forced to leave for our vacation early due to an impending hurricane and Brianna was more than accommodating! She went above and beyond and we are so appreciative! Everything was picture perfect and the house was fully equipped. Great location for exploring the fall foliage! Would highly recommend! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

The House and property are awesome. The view from the front porch is breathtaking . We were so taken with the house, property and view we hardly left during our two week stay. The only draw back is the long steep driveway but manageable so take it slow. The owners live on the property are salt of the earth and always available to answer your questions . We even had access to the blueberry patch. Excellent blueberries. We couldn’t have been happier. Thanks to Brianna and Tim for making are stay so enjoyable.

We had a group of 6 stay for about 10 days for a work trip. We loved our stay here. The house and the views were both phenomenal, and Briana was so welcoming and thoughtful. We especially enjoyed getting to pick blueberries, and relaxing in the outdoor areas.

spectacular mountain house
We had an amazing time here. The house is great, very clean and is very well appointed. I like to cook and the kitchen is fully stocked and overall a roomy space to whip up your next culinary masterpiece. We loved sitting enjoying the sweeping views off the back porch and the grill was in great shape. The grounds of this house are next level-beautiful gardens, lawns and a working garden abound with fruits and vegetables. Briana, the host, who lives on the grounds was so kind and helpful. Our family loved wandering through her gardens and learning about the crops and also their maple syrup production. Overall, great stay!
The only suggestion would be to add a TV somewhere for families to watch together or a real couch in the attic space. With Tvs only in the bedrooms, we couldn't comfortably have movie night with our party of 5.

We had an amazing time staying at this beautiful house in such a lovely location. We already miss sitting on the front porch and enjoying the view. We had more than enough room for 6 adults, 2 children, and an infant. The location was great to explore Quechee and Woodstock but mostly we enjoyed relaxing at the beautifully maintained house.

Charming house, great location
A superb rental! This house has been kept in excellent repair and has been furnished very tastefully. We rented it for a large family gathering during graduation weekend and it absolutely suited all our needs. It is roomy enough for a large group. We had eight people, but could have easily added a couple more without feeling cramped. There are numerous seating areas, including three porches facing different directions so we could always take our pick, depending on how much sun or shade we wanted at different times of day. The views from the front are spectacular. (But be forewarned about the climb to get there: the driveway is very steep!) Briana was a responsive host and very accommodating when we had to adjust arrival/departure times. In short, this is an exquisite spot and highly recommended. Truly memorable!

Vermont Getaway
We had a lovely stay. The house was beautiful and warm with everything one would need. The only downside was the inability to utilize the fireplace. I understand owner’s safety concerns, but nothing can replace a snowy day or evening with family in front of a nice fire! Loved the radiant heated floors and our accompanying dog enjoyed the beautiful property. Thank you.

Highly recommend!
This was a wonderful experience from start to finish! The home is stunningly appointed with an incredible centerpiece kitchen. The decor is artfully arranged with a mix of classic and modern quality- beautiful, thoughtful touches that offer solace. The effect is one of comfort, family and treasured times. From the lovely porch is an amazing view of a not-so-distant, hazy blue mountain. Everything was extremely clean and comfortable, and Briana, our host, was super welcoming and helpful. We are so thankful to both she and her husband Tim for their generous hospitality!

Awesome Property and Owners
This house is ABSOLUTELY amazing !!!! The pictures do it NO justice. Spacious, stocked with everything you would need. Briana and Tim are excellent hosts ..... always available for any questions. They gave us a jar of their homemade maple syrup that is so yummy. The house is approx. 45 minutes from Killington, but it's such a beautiful ride it doesn't feel like it. House is clean and the rooms are spacious. The morning and evenings views are stunning. Already looking to book for next year's ski season. Would highly recommend this property.

I cannot sing the praises of this home and host family enough. The home was as described or, if anything, better than described. The views were remarkable to distant Mt Ascutney, the accommodations extremely warm and comfortable, and the property so lovely we spent more time than expected snow-shoeing in the woods or simply walking on the quiet Vermont country roads just down the long driveway. Our hosts were nearby staying in their sugar house and when we had questions or small issues were there at a moment's notice to help us out. You have to try their delicious maple syrup. Would I recommend this? NO, because we want it to ourselves! Of course, I would recommend it with the highest regard and plan to stay again. Note that Hanover, NH and Woodstock (lovely towns and great shopping) were very close and Killington well under an hour's drive.
