5/2 Old Farmhome-Beautiful Valley Views-Near Skiing-Sugarbush

Our large and lovely old 1880 two-story farmhouse is beautifully situated on 4 acres with a babbling brook and backs up to the Green Mountain National Forest. Easy access year around. Located on Route 100 just north of Hancock, a popular scenic route through Vermont.

It is certainly not fancy or deluxe, just plain/simple accommodations for a family to enjoy. We've left as many of the original features of the home as possible. But the home is very large, and with comfortable furnishings, it is a great place for families to get together all under one roof and enjoy a vacation.

Located in the heart of Ski Country just south of Granville--within 20 minutes of SugarBush, Killington, Middlebury SnoBowl. Also, ride-out to the VAST trails located across the road. Located right on Route 100 (some road noise), but easy access year round.

Golfing within 5 minutes, hiking, waterfalls, kayaking, rafting, swimming, ice skating, and lots and lots of beauty all around!

Fall Foliage is Gorgeous
Don't miss it!

High-Speed Wi-Fi Available.

Washer/dryer upstairs. Also, additional kitchenette--microwave, table/chairs, dishes.

Upstairs has lots of room for games/puzzles/books.

We are located on a main road, so there will be road noise, and extra care is needed when exiting driveway to listen and look before pulling onto highway.

We loved staying in this beautifully restored old farmhouse that is full of charm and character. The location is beautiful, right along rte 100. The owners were very responsive and a pleasure to work with. We would definitely stay here again.

Cool old farm house with an old fashioned set-up. Good value for the money considering how many people the house sleeps. Bathrooms are updated, kitchen is from the 80s. Furniture is outdated and ready to be replaced. Beds were very soft, not supportive.

Perfect!

It was the perfect location for us. We brought a group of teenagers to rave the Green Mountain Stage race. The house was perfectly situated 30min from the start of most stages. The kids loved the accommodations. It was rustic but charming and very well kept. The owners clearly put a lot of thought into how they manage everything for guests. We’ll be coming to this race annually and will be planning to stay here as long they’ll continue to have us.

Good spot but needs some updating

This is my second time renting this property for the Green Mountain Stage Race, and overall, it’s a convenient spot, close to everything we need over Memorial Day Weekend. The positives: -Plenty of bedrooms to accommodate our group of teenagers and coaches. -Modest but functional kitchen with most essentials (the stove and oven work well, the fridge is spacious and clean, and the coffee maker gets the job done). -Large common area with comfortable seating for everyone to gather around the TV. The areas for improvement: -The downstairs bathroom toilet is in bad shape; the tank is loose and feels like it’s going to fall off. -The downstairs shower curtain really needs to be replaced—it’s in poor condition. -The kitchen could use a few more good-quality pans for cooking. -The house was very dusty, with cobwebs in multiple areas. We all felt the impact of the dust. If a cleaning fee is charged, the house should be spotless upon arrival. -While the location is nice, the driveway exit is hazardous due to cars speeding over a blind hill. Even following the recommendation to "listen" for cars didn’t help, as a Tesla came speeding over the hill on Sunday evening. I’ve rented several properties in the area and returned to this one for its convenience, but unless there are some updates, we may need to look elsewhere for 2025.

Loved our stay at this charming house. It would suit nice for a small group. We found everything we needed to cook at the house. The area is beautiful. We rented in the late spring, and the views were beautiful. We are considering coming here again to see the autumn foliage. We are not skiers, but this home sits close to the ski resorts.

Great spot for winter activities!

Home was perfect for our group of 8 friends + a pup to spread out and have a home base for skiing sugarloaf. Looks larger than photos and had a great kitchen for cooking a group meal. A bit far from the mountain but gorgeous drive there and back. Highly recommend!

Perfect fit for our family trek

We were a mixed group, one family of 4 and two additional adults. So we had private bedrooms for all. The house was a mix of rustic charm and some newer house elements. We were just there one night, so did not spend a whole lot of time at the house, but it was a perfect fit for our needs. Thanks Bethany!

Farm house in Vermont

The home setting was as described. No issues with anything in the home. Only negative is the driveway is on a curve in the road that is travelled above the posted speed. The owner made us aware & we used caution entering/leaving. Very happy with our stay.

Fun farmhouse!

We stayed at this farmhouse for our vacation and loved it! The owner was very easy to communicate with, helpful, and gave very quick responses to every one of our questions. The farmhouse itself was a ton of fun, it's very large and the kids loved exploring it and the stream right outside! It has a lot of "old house charm," really cool old windows, ceiling beams, gorgeous wood floors. It's a beautiful place. We were completely comfortable there, there were board games to play, the TV had every option we wanted and it was easy to use, and books to read. The house had every practical thing that makes vacations easy - washer/dryer, dishwasher, coffee maker and even a kitchenette upstairs which the kids loved to have breakfast in! We had a wonderful time.

Rustic? overused!

The spot is picturesque, the house is as rustic as anounced but... it doesn't say that matresses, sheets are overused. And the place was not clean. Dust and spider web everywhere... We had to broom and dust furnitures in the bedroom and try to find clean sheets for our bed. There were dishes on the counter and dirty clothes in the sink.

Had its pros & cons

Pros: Responsive property manager Square footage overall - plenty of room to spread out Fire pit area and dry wood Clean kitchen Charming older home: we used to live in one older than this and understand their value. The woods and brook were lovely with hiking trails a short drive away Cons: Showers- uncomfortable for anyone on the tall side. One was enclosed in 360 degrees of close-fitting shower curtain which featured a heavy layer of soap scum. Adults had no choice but to be in contact with it. Water pressure is low; it’s also hard water. Beds: Adults changed beds during the stay but did not find ones they were comfortable on but maybe that’s just us? If you want the beds made in anticipation of your arrival, ask in advance. We didn’t and it led to some problems involving waking up a child who collapsed into a bed while we unloaded the car. Budget 30 min of your time to complete the requested cleaning.

Great weekend - generous housing

The Hancock house is old ... really old! But do not be fooled by battered siding under neatly painted exterior: this place has been lovingly restored with updates where it matters: fantastic old floorboards & exposed beams adjoin full bathrooms [2], efficient kitchen & laundry, many screened windows w/clever locks allowing them to be part open but still secured against intrusion [& you can hear the brook outside tumbling over the rocks]. Ample room for an active sociable group or families. Three bedrooms upstairs are private to sleep up to 11 depending on arrangements while downstairs offers two more bedrooms convenient for those that find stairs troublesome. Comfortable living room with tv lounging furniture, big diningroom table great to sit around & talk, kitchen table downstairs as well, mini-kitchen space repeated upstairs, not to mention a smaller entry parlor with another tv, a 4-season small patio and a beautiful back yard bordered by woodland. Furnace works quickly when needed, ample hot water, ample clean linens and china, working wifi [which you will need], clear guest house directions. Semi-cons: 40 minutes from Randolph Center where our event was [but close to Rochester which is a pretty little town]; parking max 4 cars w/careful space management; as warned VT Rte100 is fast travelled - driveway is invisible from both directions though "hidden drive" warnings are duly posted so care is needed exiting. Great host communication!
