Family vacation

This was our first family vacation with adult children and grandkids. We had such a wonderful time! The property is beautiful and very private. We felt comfortable with the grandkids being out in the open spaces and going from the house to the pool by themselves. In light of Covid, we especially enjoyed having a dedicated time for just our family to use the pool. Manchester is such a lovely town and there were a lot of activities nearby for family fun. Would definitely recommend it to other families.

Lovely quiet getaway

We came to stay at the green mountain house for two weeks for the Vermont summer festival horse show. It was so lovely to come home from the horse show and relax on the back deck with a glass of wine and the view of the mountains! We had a wonderful time.

A perfect getaway!

This home was the perfect Fall getaway. Located just a few minutes drive from the Manchester Main Street, it was easily accessible. With the sprawling lawn out front and the beautiful deck overlooking the mountains, this was a lovely place to connect with nature for a few days. The owners were also extremely kind and welcoming.

Birthday Weekend in Vermont

This home afford us a comfortable place for a family weekend with our 3 children and and grandchildren. It was clean and everything was in good working order. It was well supplied with necessities.....towels, dishes, silverware. The house could use some newer pots and pans. No DVD player in the house which was a minor thing but something to be noted.

Wonderful stay at beautiful home

We stayed at the Green Mountain House for a weekend with family to celebrate my grandmother's life. Everyone was responsive and extremely helpful, and the house itself was the perfect place for us. We had exactly the right amount of space with 11 adults (3 couples and 5 by themselves) and had plenty of extra space when we had a few extra relatives over during the day for dinner and games. The rooms are all spacious and comfortable, and the common areas are extremely relaxing. The views are also spectacular and the grounds are a great place to walk around and enjoy nature. Would definitely recommend and hope we have an occasion to celebrate here again as well.
