Great Getaway

Family of 6 adults & our little dog had a wonderful time together in this well laid out and well equipped home. We were able to have 3 people working remotely reliably and comfortably. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare all our meals. Although spring came early to VT the scenery was beautiful and hiking provided a good alternative to skiing/sledding/skating. (Yak tracks very helpful!) Great features to the property were the pond out front, whirlpool tub & steamer shower in master bathroom and of course the stone fireplace. Would definitely return for another stay. Owner very responsive and timely with all correspondence.

The perfect place to come 'home' to after skiing Stratton

Located just 10 minutes from the base of Stratton, this warm and inviting home full of character awaits! We absolutely loved our 5 night stay at Bennett Farm. The place was so clean upon arrival! Our favorite part was the fireplace which we used every single day since during our stay, VT was experiencing -2 degree temperatures... Tons of firewood was provided which made it so nice to not have to go back and forth to the store. The heat inside the home also worked excellent so we were always warm! The house is in a cute neighborhood, we felt very safe (even though this entire town is super safe to begin with). The home is on 7 acres of land which made for picturesque mornings after nightly snowfalls. The house has every possible cooking utensil, beer / wine openers, a lighter for the fireplace and candles, fresh linens for the beds, laundry pods, dish and hand soaps, shampoo / conditioner in the mini hotel-like bottles. Extras of everything - towels, dish towels, sheets, toilet paper, etc. The mudroom entrance had enough space to store ski boots, ski bags and and skis for the 5 of us. All appliances worked great, including the bluetooth stereo! We packed our own JBL and didn't end up needing it! The steam shower was the ultimate treat! Nothing better after a long day of skiing. This home was close to Underground Coffee which we frequented, as well as EquipSport which offered ski rentals at a discounted rate compared to renting at Stratton's base lodge. Driveway gets plowed when it snows, the garage kept our car snow free, and the care taker responded to our text within 5 minutes. Couldn't ask for a better experience! Warning on the wifi - it is SLOW. We found it to work best paired with our hotspot that we had on our iphone in the master bedroom near the desk. It's rural VT, so you can't expect the 5G super fast city-speed wifi...It worked fine for Zoom meeting calls - but it did freeze/delay 2-3 times within 30 min sessions. Tons of board games and puzzles at the house too - we loved playing Horseopoly by the fire! But it did take us until our last day to find the deck of cards in the coffee table drawer. Overall, LOVED our stay! Will be re-booking for next ski season!! Thank you Lisa for being a great and responsive host!!

Comfortable home. Great week.

This place has clearly been a home for many years. Not sterile like many other places. Comfortable, warm, everything you might need is there. Well-stocked kitchen supplies, firewood, garage for car, etc. Master bath has a jacuzzi and a steam shower. I really enjoyed the steam. We found it a great location for skiing, hiking, and exploring the area. Wifi is slow, so don’t plan to hold Zoom meetings or stream movies, etc. I downloaded music to play as streaming was too slow. DirectTV works fine for live sports and traditional TV.

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Bennett Stokes

This property has been in our family for decades. My brother was a great carpenter and artist and built this house with his own hands. It has many unique custom features and is a special place for our family and friends. We use the house whenever it is not rented. Skiing at Stratton / Magic in the winter or enjoying biking, hiking, swimming in the quarries and Farmer's Markets in the summer months.

Why they chose this property

This wonderful Vermont house and 7 acre property is secluded, peaceful and relaxing yet close to everything, with Great Skiing, Golf, Hiking, Biking, and Manchester a short 20 minute drive. There is something for all seasons and a great change of pace from busy lives in NYC or Philadelphia.

What makes this property unique

Reading a book by the fire, shoveling off the pond with 4 friends to play pond hockey, cooking big meals with friends. Taking long walks with the dogs.
