Beautiful home in a picturesque setting

Warm inviting home in the foothills of the Green Mountains. Beautiful view of snow-covered fields that borders the property. Home is set in the quaint village of Poultney, which offers trails, shops and dining. Sandra is an excellent host and is always readily for any issues if they should arise.

Quaint home in beautiful Vermont

Beautifully restored home filled with charm & warmth. Beautiful view of farm pastures & tree covered hills. One of the bedrooms overlooks this magnificent view. I awoke one morning to early morning fog covering the pasture & the sun rising. It was a wonderful way to start my day.

Our stay at this beautiful farmhouse in Poultney, Vermont was everything we hoped for. The accommodations were cozy, clean, and thoughtfully renovated, preserving the rustic charm of a 1920s farmhouse while offering modern comfort. It was exactly as described. We loved being within walking distance of the quaint and friendly downtown and especially appreciated how close we were to the Poultney Rail Trail. Our adult children rented bikes and had a fantastic morning... breakfast on Main Street, then pedaling through the golden fall leaves and under Vermont’s wide-open skies. The host was gracious and communicative, making everything seamless and welcoming. It was the perfect blend of comfort, nature, and small-town warmth. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a peaceful and memorable Vermont getaway.

Beautiful home that had everything we needed. A suggestion for future guests include a window AC unit in all four bedrooms. The window fans did not cool it down enough. Also we could tell it no one lived there full time. It was surface level clean but spider webs, dead bugs in almost every corner. Needs a good deep clean. Additionally, the oven was not working but the stovetop was.

Quaint home with beautiful view of farmland and woods. Sandra is an excellent host, who is readily available for questions and concerns. Many great restaurants in Poultney center. Short trip to Manchester for shopping, fine dining and to visit the summer home of Robert Todd Lincoln.

Charming home

We loved staying at this house, a perfect combination of charming, quaint Vermont, and the modern updates needed for a comfortable summer stay. Sandra responded immediately whenever we had questions, and we appreciated all of the attention to detail that made our stay even more special. From the house, it was a quick walk to downtown Poultney, and an easy drive to Lake St. Catherine, blueberry picking at Hicks Farm, and hiking around a Japanese Zen garden and up Mount Zion in Hubbardton. We hope to return to this beautiful home soon!

Perfect House

Our family was attending my son's wedding at his wife's grandmother's house on Lake St Catherine. We could not find a house on the lake, but this house made up for it. This house is in a great location, walking distance to downtown Poultney, where you can get great food, walking trails, and remembrance shopping. The house was very clean and had every amenity that anyone would need. Sandra is a great host, we had a smoke alarm go off 2 days in a row at about 6:15 am, contacted her and she had her caretaker come and fix it on same day. O highly recommend this house if your in the Poultney area. You will highly impressed

Owner is a great communicator

I will start by saying that the owner, Sandra, responds very quickly to messages, and she sent a reminder about the check-out process the day before we were scheduled to leave. The area is quiet, and served as a home base for our daily excursions within Vermont and upstate NY. Our 11 and 15 year old nieces especially enjoyed the Adventure Center at Killington (approx. 50 minutes away), The Vermont Teddy Bear Factory tour (approx. 1 hour 20 minutes away), and Lake George (approx. 45 minutes away). My husband's favorite was visiting the replica of the original Star Trek set in Ticonderoga, NY (approx. 45 minutes away). Taps Tavern in Poultney is so good, we ate dinner there twice. (Great wings, salads, pulled pork, and fried calamari.) We also enjoyed brunch at Johnny Boys Pancake House in Rutland (approx. 30 minutes away). The beds in the four upstairs bedrooms are surprisingly comfortable, and the downstairs is quite spacious. I am a meticulously clean person, and the house, while very tidy, didn't fully meet my standards of cleanliness. The owner was apologetic when I texted her about this. Our last two days were very hot, and only one of the bedrooms had a window air conditioner installed. The others had window fans that we installed. The ground floor rear windows have neither curtains nor blinds, nor do the windows at the top of the stairs, which made the house even hotter. We were advised that the upstairs toilet had weak plumbing, so the downstairs toilet was the designated "#2 toilet. " Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

The house is charming and exactly as advertised. It is clean and well cared for.

My whole family has been staying on Lake St Catherine for over 40 years in the same house. When it recently sold and we could no longer rent we had to split up into smaller groups and each rent a house (other family members had a house on the lake for swimming). The farm house was exactly what we were looking for. It is large and spacious, comfortable and clean, all in all very well kept. The kitchen was great for cooking and the dining room was a great size to have the rest family over for dinner. We can not wait to come back.

Lovely Lodging in Poultney

We stayed for one week while visiting family and appreciated this welcoming property in Poultney, VT. Comfy beds and bedding, soft, pure white towels; two room air-conditioners and a fan in the living room made the record-setting heat more bearable. Easy walk to downtown cafes and grocery store. Would definitely stay here again when visiting Poultney.

Home away from home

The property was perfect for our family of six to get away from the hustle and bustle of NYC. Five rooms, 2 bathrooms, and plenty of space to cook, dine, relax, and gather. It was our home away from home. We are protestants so we were able to navigate to Middletown Springs Community Church which is 9 miles away from the property, which was essential for us. The ski resorts and attractions are in close enough proximity to enjoy the drive and arrive without needing to stretch. When I needed to communicate with Sandra, she was responsive and accommodating. The next time I am here with family or friends, we will have one less concern of booking a home as this will be our homeaway in Vermont.

Very pleasant and relaxing vacation!

Very much enjoyed our stay at this property. However, in looking at the photos online, I got the impression that the property was set further back off the road and further away from other houses, although I guess this could have been somewhat my misconception. That being said, it was an extremely quiet neighborhood with more than enough land in the back for my family to enjoy. One of my favorite things to do in the morning was to sit in the Adirondack chairs in the back with a cup of coffee. What a beautiful view! Such peacefulness! Sandra was outstanding to deal with. Had one minor initial concern the first full day we were there and she was extremely responsive to my text. It turned out to be a non-issue in the end. The house was very clean on move in and had everything we could have needed. Since this was my first time utilizing VRBO, or any rental by owner site, there were a few amenities I didn't expect, such as bar and liquid soaps, shampoo, etc., of which there was plenty for our stay. The downtown area was very small, but everyone was incredibly friendly and pleasant. We had a wonderful time and would like to thank Sandra for all her hospitality. We left with a number of wonderful memories.
