What a wonderful stay we had!! The house is perfectly suited for a large family get together. The property is beautifully maintained and the pond/sandy beach entertained the children for hours. The property is a true gem!!

This was a perfect location for a birthday hiking trip with my extended family. The property grounds and the views of Mt Mansfield are stunning! The beds, linens and towels were very comfortable and clean. The kitchen was well equipped for us to cook and have family dinners together. The hot tub was fantastic! We had 10 adults in our party which I think is the max number of adults this house can accommodate to sleep and relax comfortably. The only changes I would recommend is an anti-slip mat in the bathroom with a tub.

We had a short family vacation over Memorial Day weekend. The house was described as a good family getaway and it really was more than we could have expected. My husband and I traveled with our 4 kids and 2 significant others. The house was clean and beautiful. The views are amazing from all the picture windows in the house. The kitchen was immaculate. My husband and I love to cook and it had everything we could possibly need, even the knives were sharp. It was spectacular. The kids made use of the pond by fishing and swimming. It was the cleanest pond I have ever seen. The hiking was spectacular. There is a mile and a half trail around the property. The house is a short drive to town for provisions but the house has all you need for a relaxing getaway, including a hot tub. The owner was very attentive and responded quickly to any questions. We cannot say enough good things about this lovely house. We will be back.

The house was perfect for our family. 9 adults , 4 kids. The kitchen was well equipped with various pots and pans. The fireplace in the living room was our favorite. The hot tub was a great addition to the house.

Had a great stay at the Mansfield House. Perfect for proximity to Smugglers while feeling remote. Everything was as described, and property manager and owner were very accommodating. Would visit again.

We were looking for a house that was large enough for our family and some of our friends and their families. This house was perfect. The fireplace was wonderful for everyone to gather around. The kitchen was fully stocked with equipment for all of our needs. The beds were very comfortable and the house was very clean. We were skiing at Smugglers Notch, and the house was approximately 20 minutes away on back roads around the mountain to the resort. We loved the house so much, we booked it again for next year while we were staying at the property. The owners were great to work with. Patricia was very responsive to all of our questions. We really loved our stay and look forward to next year when we get to go back.

I’ve been very tempted not to review so that we could have our pick of weeks, but there are so many other excellent reviews, I figured it wouldn’t work. This was the perfect house for our multigenerational family Thanksgiving week. Easy access to the woods for hiking, a huge fireplace with plenty of firewood, well-stocked kitchen, and beautiful views of the surprise 10” snowfall. Very responsive management for the one issue (security system beeping) we had. The 9-hour (before stops) drive was absolutely worth it, and we’re hoping to come back to enjoy other seasons there.

My wife and I were celebrating our 20th anniversary and wanted the ability to unplug from every day life. This property delivered. From the tempurpedic bed, to the Giant fireplace and hot tub overlooking Mt. Mansfield this property was just what we needed. We were easily able to spend a day in Stowe and Burlington from the location. The property would be perfect for a family reunion or a 2 family vacation as you can separate groups with bedrooms on either side of the kitchen, dining and family room. This is a spot we would definitely return to!

Set in it's own expansive grounds with fabulous views of Mt Mansfield one side and swimming lake the other, this was a very special place indeed. Well equipped, comfortable, clean and everything worked. Perfect for families or groups we cannot recommend it too highly. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We would love to come back one day.

The layout of the house is ideal for multiple families. Our family with teenagers stayed on one end, and the grandmother and my sister's family with a toddler stayed on the other, and we could not hear each other at all. The center of the house was a perfect gathering spot for us all. While the weather wasn't as cooperative as we would have liked, we got to enjoy some time at the pond and hanging outside on the grounds. The landscaping is beautiful. The sunsets were breathtaking. The pond is peaceful. We've taken an annual joint vacation for the last 14 years, and this is the cleanest, most comfortable property we've stayed in.

Perfect house for a family vacation and amazing property for swimming and exploring. Easy commutes to Stowe and Burlington for outings, but plenty of entertainment for days in as well. Communication was excellent. We hope to return every year - thanks so much!

Our stay at Mansfield House could not have been better. Not only were there bedrooms for everyone to have their own space, but the common areas of house allowed for wonderful together time full of card games, good meals and lots of laughter. The morning breeze from the mountain was absolutely delightful and the evenings on the front lawn made for memories that we will carry with us for many years to come.

We loved our stay at Mt Mansfield. It was a beautiful home and even better views. Our stay was perfect.

This property and home was absolute perfection from start to end. The house is set up PERFECTLY for both adults and kids to have fun. The living area and kitchen is in the middle and the bedrooms are set up at each end of the house. The sound basically stays in the living area and does not travel to the bedrooms which is a plus for sleeping babies. Also, the beds are super comfortable. We came ready to take advantage of the kitchen and it is well stocked from seasonings to cast iron. Betsy and Patricia graciously allowed us to bring our two dogs and heading out back and taking a walk in the woods with them every day was a dream and much needed. So peaceful and beautiful, especially with all the snow. Given the pandemic, we stayed at the house and only ventured out on the property but that was more than enough given the acreage, the trails, the fireplace, and the hot tub. The xylophones and the little playroom were a big hit with the kids too! I sincerely hope we make it back to the Mansfield house again. It was everything we needed.

The house was cozy and perfect for a gal weekend. Great hiking area too. Thank you!

This house is perfect for a long weekend unwind in the Vermont mountains. With 100 Acres you have nearly endless opportunities for activities around the house. Lots of room for large groups. Would stay here again.

Had a lovely stay at the property. Easy check in process. Beautiful scenery on either side of the building. Quiet remote area. Even with any issues we faced in the house- was easy to contact property manager.

We enjoyed an amazing weekend here! Enjoyed the pond, hot tub, and all the acres to explore. The house was great with amazing views!

Perfect place to social distance. A few trips to the store were all we needed. It was very very hot on the southern end of the house. That’s the only negative. Bring lots of fans.

We had a great stay the Mountain House, it provided our family of adults and kids with plenty of space both inside and out. The swimming pond was especially fun for the kids. The setting and scenery are beautiful!

We had the best time at this house! Enough space, comfortable furnishings, fully stocked kitchen. Property manager/owner extremely responsive. The views are amazing. Cell and WiFi worked like a charm. It was wonderful!

The property was ideal for multi generation families or family reunions... we will consider using the property again.

The Mountain house was perfect for our large group of women. We were in the area for skiing and hiking and the house was a perfect spot to come back to. It was convenient to the places we were skiing and hiking and we made use of the great trails by the house for snowshoeing and walking in the woods. The views are spectacular from the house and we were luck to be there as it was snowing. So beautiful. The house is well equipped with everything that we needed. The host and property manager were responsive and helpful. We are already considering a return visit.

Our stay at Mansfield House exceeded expectations. We had 5 kids ages 2-6 and the house handled us well. The furnishings were as good as we've seen with all the kitchen items you need, board games, movies, extra blankets, etc. The surrounding property was so good we rarely left. We were constantly sledding, skiing, snowshoeing, and hiking the trails on the property and at nearby Mt Mansfield (just a mile up the road). We are already planning our return to Mansfield house and hope to spend time in the area for years to come.

Stunning setting at the base of Mt. Mansfield, the largest mountain in the Green Mountain range. We filled the home to capacity to celebrate Thanksgiving with my son, who moved to Vermont and was not able to come home for the holiday. The layout of the home is very comfortable. Warm and cozy with an amazing fireplace. The bedrooms are situated within 2 wings on either side of the main living area. Closed off by solid doors, allowing for a quiet and peaceful slumber away from those who enjoy staying up late. The main living area features a giant, well appointed kitchen with just about every appliance needed for those who love to cook, and a large table to gather and play games. To top it all off we had the great pleasure of watching the snow slowly and quietly drift from the sky all weekend. Enough to enhance the experience but not enough to make travel treacherous. Fabulous location. Some of the best family time we’ve had! I would return in a heartbeat.

Great house! Exactly what we were looking for with the best views of the mountains. About 45 minutes from Stowe with lots of breweries and things to do.

It’s a fantastic property for a large group! We had plenty of room! The outdoor seating area was fantastic. We throughly enjoyed having morning coffee while being in awe of the Mountain View! It was an easy drive to Burlington and Lajoire Stables for horse back riding. The character and set up of the home was so welcoming. We hope to rent it again!

The kids, adults and dog in our party all made the most of this great property, from morning swims in the pond to afternoon lawn games to evening stargazing in the hot tub. It was a perfect place for a family vacation.

The house was perfect! We were blown away with the Mountain View’s, kitchen size, the bedrooms and the beautiful flowers! It had everything we could ask for!!! Thank you for a lovely time !!)

This big beautiful house has everything to make our reunion beyond perfect. Big fully equipped kitchen, big fireplace, hot tub, breathtaking views in all directions , lovely gardens, and even a pretty pond. Plenty of room for all of us . We'll be back for our next reunion.

A close family friend was being married at the Essex so 13 of us between the ages of 3 months and 65 years stayed at the Mansfield House and it was perfect. The little ones loved the pond and the yard. The layout of the house with bedrooms at the 2 ends allowed privacy and was amazingly quiet. The location is absolutely stunning with mountain views and beautiful fields with stone walls. As so many others have said, you feel as though you are staying in a friend's house, full of history and love.

Great property, lot of space for guests and fantastic out door space. Plenty of parking, super quiet area. Had a great time with friends up there.
