Vacation Rental Description

Our large 3-story year-round vacation home will accommodate up to  
seven couples or one or two families.  There are private sleeping  
spaces (all queen-size) for up to five couples and semi-private  
sleeping areas for two additional couples.  
 
While there are only two "conventional" bedrooms in this vacation 
home, one of which is part of a completely separate "mother-in-law 
apartment" on the lower level of the house, there is also a queen size 
sleeping loft ...  and one additional bedroom that we call "the cave" 
(the roof of the house slopes down into "the cave"...great sleeping 
for adults or children ... but no standing up or dancing 
around...kind of like sleeping in the cabin of a boat...but without 
the motion of the ocean). All four 
of these private sleeping spaces are queen size.  
 
There are also several not-so-private sleeping areas...everything from 
twin size built in "sleeping nooks" to queen size fold-out futons on 
frames. Plenty of room for two families or up to seven or even eight 
couples! 
 
 
We are located on 21 of our own beautifully wooded, private and  
secluded acres in the heart of Vermont, with spectacular mountain  
views from three decks. Heat is supplied primarily from three  
wood-burning stoves, two of which are large free-standing fireplaces.   
There is also a back-up gas heating system throughout the house, just  
in case you forget (or you just aren't in the mood) to stoke up the  
fire.

Vacation Rental Amenities

Our house is completely funished, including several cords of seasoned  
firewood. Linens, blankets,comforters, towels, pots, pans and dishes  
are all provided. There are two fully equipped kitchens as well as two  
large outdoor gas barbeques that are used year-round.  
 
There are two and a half bathrooms and an extra large washer and  
dryer. We recently installed a European hot water heating system that  
cannot run out of hot water, no matter how large your group or how  
many showers you take.  
 
There are two TV's with crystal clear full premium movie package  
satellite dish reception, two VCR's and two complete stereo systems.

Activities and Attractions

Our winter guests enjoy skiing at Okemo (7 miles away) or Killington,  
the largest ski area in the East (19 miles away). Cross-country skiing  
on prepared trails is available less than 5 miles from the house at  
Fox Run (a golf course in summer and fall), as well as on the  
inumerable prepared snowmobile trails that criss-cross our area. Horse  
drawn sleigh rides, guided snowmobile tours, even hot tubs are also  
available. 
 
Summer and fall vacationers have all that Vermont has to offer close  
at hand. Hiking, biking, horseback riding, tennis, golf, antique  
hunting and even Old-Time Locomotive Train rides are all nearby. 
 
 Swimming, boating and fishing are all to be found on Lake Ninevah,  
less than one mile from our front door. Virtually no visible new  
construction has been permitted on this pristine 250 acre lake in more  
than thirty years, leaving about 90% of its genuine wilderness  
shoreline intact. It should be noted that boats with motors of more  
than 5 horsepower are not permitted on Lake Ninevah, but we do throw  
in our people-powered two person kayak and our fishing dinghy at no  
extra charge.  
 
Foliage Season (an unforgettable experience in Vermont) usually peaks  
right around Columbus Day Weekend in October. Bring your camera!
