Versatile Vermont Farmhouse Rental - Peaceful and Relaxing!

Peaceful, private, inviting, roomy 200 year old farmhouse on 114 acres in the Green Mountain National Forest- Goshen (central ) Vermont. Within a half mile of Brandon Gap Catamount Trail Association trails, and the Long Trail. Hiking right out the door, sledding, cross country skiing. Many updates, antique furnishings, clean, neat and very relaxing: Four bedrooms, one bath and a Queen BR on the first floor. Enjoy the large stone fireplace in living room, dining room, full bath/shower, and a large fully equipped country kitchen with pantry. Upstairs, there is a claw foot tub in bathroom as well as three bedrooms: a large Queen, twins and a large double. Cable TV, a full game closet, sleds, skating, golf, ponds nearby. Rent by the weekend, week or month. Holiday vacation weeks available. Great spot any season! Guests may request to have a larger group for a fee.

Views are spectacular from the 3-season stone sun porch. Only one other home is visible from our property. Hiking trails, blueberry picking, the brightest stars on Earth, as well as rivers and ponds abound. Wildlife sighted frequently in our meadows. The nearby town of Brandon boasts many well-known galleries, book store, shops and a terrific French restaurant. At any season, this is a wonderful family vacation location. For skiers, we are close to Middlebury Snow Bowl, a small family mountain with varied terrain. A 30 minute drive takes you to Pico and Killington, and about 40 minutes will get you to Mad River and Sugarbush. Hiking and snowshoeing right out the door on logging trails throughout the property. Golf, riding and swimming nearby. Same Town as the Blueberry Hill Ski Touring Center.

We had a wonderful week at Leslie's home. The house is a classic old New England with lots of charm and comforts. The house is extremely well-furnished, very quiet and a short drive to Brandon. The house is also close to dirt roads that make for enjoyable walking.Leslie was very helpful and easy to communicate with before and during our stay. And that's important to me.

Relaxing!

Timbertop is the most charming antique farmhouse nestled in the mountains. We had a wonderfully relaxing week and found the house welcoming and comfortable. We cooked and ate and lounged about, explored Brandon and the surrounding area. Highly recommend staying here.

Ideal country relaxation

Our family had a lovely week staying at this Vermont farmhouse in the midst of the Green Mountains. We walked in and immediately felt like we were home. Whether sitting in the sunroom reading, playing games in the parlor, or playing the piano from the Stephen Foster songbook in the entryway, we loved everything about this special place.

Charming old Vermont farmhouse

The location was great, for hiking and exploring in that corner of Vermont in mid-September. Views of the mountains were beautiful. Nearby Brandon is an interesting town with many historic houses, and a wonderful, popular restaurant: Cafe Provence. The house is larger than two people needed but plenty comfortable. It's an antique house, but with good internet.

Relaxation in the Green Mountains

We had a wonderful stay at this property recently. The location is quite lovely, along a quiet gravel road in an elevated area with amazing views. Really, it's totally worth it just to relax in the airy enclosed porch and take it all in (extra bonus when the sun comes out and warms up the stone floor of the porch!) The house had plenty of room for us, and Leslie was a very gracious host! It gives us great joy to see this beautiful Vermont historic house cared for so that it can continue to provide joy to Vermont travelers for years to come.

Perfect Vermont Getaway

We really enjoyed staying at this historic centrally located property. There were plenty of options for sleeping, sitting, and getting outside in the fresh air. We enjoyed looking for wildlife in the surrounding fields and walking down to the river or pond in the morning. Because of the location right near Brandon, we were able to visit a new part of the state each day and still make it back around dusk. There was no cell coverage at the house as advertised, which we were okay with, but once out on the main road we could make calls/text. We all grew up in the country so the well and septic didn't pose an issue for us and once we got up to speed on the local recycling/trash/compost rules we were good to go. The biggest issues we had really had nothing to do with the house itself but the GPS would occasionally try to bring us to the house the back way (22 miles on a dirt road through national forest in the dark...no thanks!) and we didn't realize how many stores/restaurants would be closed on Monday and Tuesday. Other than that we had a great time and highly recommend the house and a visit to Vermont in the fall!

We did enjoy our stay. It was a little unexpected to have the refrigerator unplugged and empty and for the pantry to be so bare. It would have been nice to have coffee and filters and maybe something for our first breakfast, but we enjoyed going to the market and going to Rosie’s for breakfast. The property was beautiful and the house felt like a home once we settled in.Thank you for sharing.
