I'm hesitant to write this review, as I want to be able to return to High Acres one day, but it is the most magical place. My husband and I spent the last few months traveling across the country and saw some incredible places/VRBOs/national parks and High Acres Farm just might be our favorite. We worked with Jeff (the most helpful, considerate and understanding host we have yet to come across - and we've stayed at ~50 this year alone) to plan our small wedding on the property, where we stayed with our siblings in the house leading up to the party. We couldn't have asked for a more incredible house and property - from the views of the mountains over lake champlain to sharing meals in the beautiful kitchen - this house has it all and more. Natural beauty, charm, upscale amenities, and most of all a unique pastoral setting. We hope to keep High Acres as a special place for our family to return to, as we've really never experienced anything so magical. Thank you, Jeff for everything!!! - The Hayons

We had an amazing time! Our kids flew or drove in from various states to join us at this amazing property. Our two little grandsons loved the loft area and we all enjoyed the pool, tennis court and lake (paddle boarding and kayaking were a favorite). The house was a perfect fit and so well appointed! Jeff was so relaxed and was a perfect host/manager. If there were more stars we'd give them!

We have stayed at numerous great places that we loved visiting. But, highacres is a place where you soon want to live. From Jeff, the property manager, to all the touches and extras in and on the property, one immediately feels at home. Everything melts away and you just experience those simple things in life. And to top things off, this location is stunning. It was a magical family experience. Thanks to everyone at Highacres Farm.

Fantastic. Couldn't be better.

A perfect place

The property is simply beyond compare. While the photos of the property are beautiful, being there exceeded all expectations. This is a magic family home the exudes the history of the many generations that have occupied the space. Everything is first class. The quality of service was five star. This is a resort experience and to call it a "rental" would be an injustice. We can't wait to return!

Both the property and the house itself are absolutely beautiful. The land is expansive with amazing views of Lake Champlain and plenty of fall foliage in the right season. The house itself is perfectly done, no details is missed. This house is not superficially high quality, it is high quality to the bones. All the furniture is beautiful and extremely nice, with couches and chairs you melt into in front of fireplaces you'll want to melt in front of. The kitchen is beautifully done, with tons of space, all very easy to use. We cooked almost every meal we were there and enjoyed every minute of it. Tons of storage place with two fridges, and a really nice hygge feel to it all. We just finished our trip and are already planning our trip back for next autumn. Can't recommend any more highly.

High Acres Farm was the perfect spot for us to have a micro-wedding celebration with our family. The property and house are incredible. Our family loved sitting on the back porch, walking the trails to the beachfront, and being together at this stunning location. Jeff was a great host and was available and helpful prior to and during our stay. We can't wait to return!!

Very beautiful location, ideal for walking and being outdoors. Well maintained and equipped home. Host very accommodating and responsive. Really special stay! Thank you!!

High Acres Farm is like a movie set. It’s rolling hills, lake, woods, and home are exactly as they look. Our family loved playing tennis, kayaking, paddle boarding, driving the golf cart, hiking and just enjoying the sunsets on the patio. Property manager Jeff is incredibly welcoming and terrific at helping with requests like caterers. A huge shout out to Let’s Pretend Catering. I wish you were in Philly so we could get food weekly. Thanks for a fantastic Shelburne escape!

We enjoyed a perfect and peaceful opportunity to be with our children and to reset and remember the important things in life.

Clearly the best rental we have ever had. Jeff was available and helpful throughout our stay. The house was amazing. We had more than what we needed and we felt very special. Thank you Jeff for your fantastic care and insights.

Our family had a great week and this beautiful home. It is very well appointed, great bedroom space, large but cozy common space and a chef's kitchen. We spent a lot of the day at the tennis court and by the pool enjoying a breathtaking view of Lake Champlain. It is the perfect retreat for an extended family. Jeff was a great host. His communication was fantastic both leading up to the trip and during our stay. Any issues, no matter how small, he was able to address. This is a wonderful home that I could not recommend enough.

We had a great stay. The house is in good shape, with relatively recent renovations to bathrooms, comfortable beds, and plenty of chairs, dish wares, fridge space, and other accoutrements. Jeff as property manager was very responsive, friendly, and easy to coordinate with. The farm and the view of the lake were all absolutely beautiful. We had an excellent experience and would recommend the house to anyone. Thanks Jeff!

The High Acres house is extraordinary; beautifully decorated, extremely comfortable, laid out very well for a large group, and offers many fantastic options for indoor entertainment. The outside area is magnificent; views of the lake, mountains and ever changing sky, acres and acres of peaceful landscape to be enjoyed from the patio, the pool, on foot , or on the cow-print golf cart, and the private beach on the lake left our entire party in awe. No one wanted to leave and everyone wants to return ! Definitely left us all with delightful lasting memories.
