Mansfield Manor at Essex
Matthew’s place was perfect for our family visiting for a graduation party! The house was spacious, clean, and close to everything we needed! Would definitely stay again if available when visiting our family again!

Epic Views of the Green Mountains
We had a great stay at William’s. The location was beautiful and the house was comfortable. We had a great mix of day-tripping and relaxing with a view. We also ran into William and he was very helpful and friendly.

Sylvan Hideaway - Private Inground Pool - Fire Pit
We had an awesome time at this spot. We went with 4 adults and 2 kids and the space was so well equipped for kids and for the group. Awesome location overall too.

Spacious, modern luxury close to mountain!
Such a great stay. Wonderful place, super well appointed with all the amenities you could ask for. Great location very close to Stowe. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Mott House, South Hero Vermont
We enjoyed our stay at Mott house. From booking to check out everyone involved was very helpful. Pat and Dominic were very responsive to all of our questions. The home is decorated nicely and restored perfectly. We also enjoyed all of the amenities that apple island resort has to offer. We would love to return back for another stay!

Cozy 2 bedroom true log cabin
I wish I could rate this home 6 stars. It is beautiful, peaceful, private, and surrounded by nature. The two bedrooms are great and very comfortable, and they actually have anything you might need in terms of toiletries. Corey was super responsive and helpful, he quickly answered the few questions that I had. Would absolutely recommend this home to anyone looking for a small getaway.

Lakeside Bungalow ~ Pool | Hot Tub | Beach
A perfect few days and one of the best Airbnb's that I ever stayed in. The hot tub, as well as the fully stocked kitchen - the best; and the plunge pool was so refreshing. You really feel that you are floating on the water while sitting on the adirondack chairs overlooking the lake. Everything in this Airbnb was a 10++++++!!!! We will definitely be back. This mini vacation was prelude to a longer on Cape Cod, and it was very painful to leave. Thanks for a little piece of Heaven. Ange

Desired Stowe Gem :Pool, 5min to Village, hiking
We enjoyed the location. Great stay when skiing with the family. Place was as advertised and everything was in great condition

Artsy Bungalow
Danikas place was extremely cozy- has an extremely homey vibe with simple yet creative decor. There were lots of reminders and how-to’s posted around the house that were helpful. Definitely recommend if traveling to the Burlington/Winooski area!

Tranquil lake house in VT w/ breathtaking views
One of the best homes I’ve rented in Vermont, the home was beautiful, the property was beautiful as well. Would highly recommend having a vehicle to be able to handle the unexpected weather conditions and would highly recommend staying at this home if you’re looking to snowboard/ski or a simple getaway, the ideal home! The host was super thoughtful and responsive as well. Highly recommend!

Follow Your Heart Farm - Gathering Place
Our group had a great time at this booking, Jena was very responsive during our stay was the unit exceeded our group's expectations!

Cozy home with mountain views
Real nice place. I enjoyed the stay. Grill ready to use, AC cranking when i arrived. The cabin has a taller rounded ceiling which i thought was very cool. The location is unbeatable. 10 minutes from stowe and TONS of mountains and trails nearby. I mountain bike, there was an amazing trail 10 mins away! Would stay again.

Modern House on Lake Champlain
We had a wonderful long weekend at Camp Moonshadow, where we met our daughter, who came over from Burlington to spend the weekend with us. It was a very easy ferry drive and short drive for her. It was exactly what we needed - quiet, comfortable and beautiful. We did the short hikes nearby and we cooked in all meals. Kitchen was an absolute joy to cook in - large and open and providing most of what we needed. We enjoyed the fire pit on one of the nights - roasting marshmallows and catching up. Coffee on the patio in the mornings was lovely. Bedrooms were comfortable, and bathrooms squeaky clean and expansive. Host Steven got back to me regarding a few hours early on checkin - much appreciated. This is a quiet neighborhood, and perfect for a restful respite.

Quiet Mobile Home Park
Amanda was very accommodating to our last minute changes with check in and even let us extend our stay without any issues. The area was really peaceful and quiet through both the day and night time.

Cozy apartment close to BTV, UVM
Very convenient, right next to the airport and close to the interstate. Jackie is so nice and checked in with me during my stay to make sure that I had all the supplies I needed. She also had home-baked cookies waiting for me when I arrived which was so sweet. Thanks so much Jackie!!

Mountain Tiny Home Lake Retreat
Absolutely beautiful space, and a perfectly stocked cottage—what an amazing way to getaway from it all :) The hosts were all super helpful and available, able to answer any of our questions and even dropped off extra firewood when we needed it. The space itself had everything we needed and more, super clean and tidy—we felt right at home and got settled super fast for a relaxing weekend. The cabin and the deck on the lake were so peaceful and the pictures don’t do justice to how totally beautiful it really is. Can’t recommend enough, for the great amenities, super friendly hosts, and perfect getaway :)

Russell Gardens
Errin was very welcoming and responsive. Checked in with is each day of our stay to offer help. We wish we had known about this home while our daughter attended UVM as it would have been great to stay every time we came to visit. Highly recommend.

Maple Leaf Acre
This was our third time at Doug’s house and we have already booked a fourth visit. It’s perfect for a small group and our two dogs. Close to Burlington and great restaurants. His home is quiet and peaceful and super clean with a beautiful yard.

Modern Dwell Home +Sauna between Stowe/Waterbury
We had a such a great, relaxing stay. Hayden was helpful and echoed the warm and hospitable charm of Vermont. The house was exactly as described and we enjoyed our time inside just as much as we did out. We initially booked this place to be relatively close to Burlington but realized Waterbury is wonderful! There’s a ton to enjoy, great restaurants but if you want a cozy night indoors, the house is fully equipped to meet your everyday comforts. One of our favorite moments was stepping outside during the evening and looking up to the stars. No light pollution - just a view that’ll brought an easy, simple joy. Really, really great stay. Enjoy!

Private Lakefront Cottage
Peter’s place was great. House was exactly as advertised, and right on the lake. Plenty of amenities. Short drive (15 minutes) to downtown Burlington. Peter made sure we had everything we needed, and also provided some great info about surrounding areas, i.e. grocery stores, restaurants, etc. Look forward to coming back again!! Dave

The Kennedy House BTV, UVM
Joe & Jen's house was perfect for our weekend away for a soccer tournament. The house is a great blend of old and modern touches. The space is clean, neat and has everything you need. The outdoor space is nice and serene. We appreciated the tables for the lights, thats always helpful!

The Gambrel Mountain Retreat at Twin Ponds
We enjoyed a comfortable and relaxing three nights at this property, and highly recommend it! The house is open and full of natural light, tastefully decorated, and perfectly appointed with everything needed for your stay. The spacious deck was a delight - something we were specifically looking forward to for R&R. It was great for downtime with our pups, offering sunny and shady spaces throughout the day. The Twin Ponds are lovely and a brief walk away. The property is nice for walking/exploring. We do an Airbnb long weekend for our anniversary every year, and this was the first time with dogs. It was great to stay in a comfortable and beautiful spot AND have our Golden girls enjoy it with us! We would absolutely stay again!

Waterfall Oasis with Large Deck
Wonderful house in an amazing location, secluded with a large deck and a waterfall in back yard, close to groceries, restaurants, coffee, trails and a lake. The house is spacious, full of character, sparkling clean, and well stocked up with food items & toiletries. Truly a hidden gem!

Lovely Lil’ House- fenced yard!
We had a great visit! The check in and out was easy, and Sam and Errin were proactive and responsive in communication. Place was as described, and a great location walkable to downtown Winooski near shops and restaurants. There was more airplane noise nearby since it is close to the airport, surprisingly few trains considering how close the location is to the tracks. Things to be aware of are narrow steep stairs that can be tricky for little kids. Also, we visited in June and there are only two window A/C units for the whole house. One in the living room downstairs, which kept that level pretty cool. Upstairs however, only the primary bedroom has a window unit, the secondary bedroom has no way to cool it. No ceiling fan due to sloped ceiling and even with the window open and a box fan it was very hot to sleep in. Still, it’s a cute house which is walkable to nearby amenities and it’s great to have laundry as well as two bathrooms and a kitchen stocked to cook in. We’d happily return
