The Neighborhood:
🏞️ Welcome to the Heart of the Mad River Valley
Nestled within the serene and scenic Mad River Valley of Fayston, Vermont, this unique mountain retreat offers the ideal blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. Surrounded by lush forested hills and breathtaking views of the Green Mountains, the area delivers an authentic Vermont experience, perfect for nature lovers, adventure seekers, and those simply looking to relax in style.
🌲 Outdoor Adventure & Natural Beauty
The neighborhood sits minutes away from two of Vermont’s premier ski destinations—Sugarbush Resort and Mad River Glen—making it a winter paradise for skiers and snowboarders. During warmer months, explore a network of hiking and biking trails that weave through the mountains, or take a refreshing dip in one of the local waterfalls or brooks, often just a short walk or drive from the house.
The Mad River itself offers ample opportunities for kayaking, tubing, and swimming, while nearby trailheads invite visitors to discover hidden scenic overlooks and peaceful wooded paths. This location is also a hotspot for spotting Vermont wildlife—don’t be surprised to see deer, foxes, and a variety of birds during your stay.
🛍️ Local Culture, Dining & Shopping
Downtown Waitsfield is just a short drive away and exudes small-town charm with its local artisan shops, cozy cafés, farmers’ markets, and independent boutiques. Guests can enjoy fresh produce, handmade goods, and friendly Vermont hospitality. The valley’s food scene is thriving, offering everything from farm-to-table dining and gourmet restaurants to wood-fired pizzerias and casual pubs. You’ll also find delightful spots to grab a craft beer, cider, or locally roasted coffee.
A standout feature of the area is its commitment to preserving authentic Vermont culture—you won’t find a single chain store here, only unique local establishments with stories to tell.
🌄 A Truly Peaceful Escape
Set on over 13 acres of private land, this property is a sanctuary of peace and privacy. Secluded yet accessible, the house offers a tranquil escape from the hustle of everyday life, with only the sounds of rushing brooks and gentle mountain breezes to accompany you. Whether you're sipping coffee on the deck while watching the sun rise over the valley or stargazing from the hot tub under a pristine night sky, the magic of this mountain haven is undeniable.

🚙 By Car – The Best Way to Explore
Given the rural and scenic nature of Fayston, having a car is highly recommended.

🚌 Public Transit & Regional Shuttles
While traditional public transportation is limited in rural Vermont, the Green Mountain Transit (GMT) system occasionally offers seasonal shuttle service in the area, especially during ski season. The Mad Bus, operated by GMT, connects local lodging areas to ski resorts and village centers, making it a convenient and budget-friendly option during the winter months.
For guests arriving without a vehicle, it's worth checking the current Mad Bus schedule or contacting local visitor centers for updated transit info.
🚕 Ride-Sharing & Taxis
Uber and Lyft operate in the region, though availability can vary—especially during peak hours or off-season times. Booking ahead of time is advised. There are also a few local taxi services that offer rides to and from airports or around town. For guests flying into Burlington International Airport (BTV), it's roughly a 1 hour and 15 minute scenic drive to the property.
🚴 Bike Rentals & Outdoor Exploration
Fayston and the surrounding Mad River Valley are known for their mountain biking trails, and several shops in Waitsfield and Warren offer bike rentals, gear, and guided rides. For those who prefer exploring on two wheels, it’s an exciting way to soak in the natural beauty and fresh mountain air.
🚶 Walkability & Nature Access
While the property itself is secluded and not in a walkable town center, walking trails and nature paths abound right outside the door. Guests can enjoy peaceful walks along forest paths, through meadows, and to nearby brooks—perfect for unplugging and reconnecting with the great outdoors.
