Breathe Vermont’s fresh woodland air, enjoy a calming scenic view of the valley and enjoy the crisp water from the chalet’s deep water well. So good.

The Rye Chalet has hosted guests like you since 2014 and they have enjoyed the custom 3-story spiral staircase, open concept with a center three story stone fireplace, Picture windows and a gorgeous wrap-around deck that looks over Hidden Valley's miles of hills, fields and streams. It is truly a custom artisan chalet.

All within an hour: a nearby state nature reserve, learn Fly Fishing at the Orvis Fly Fishing School or visit the American Museum of Fly Fishing in historic Manchester village: the Norman Rockwell Exhibition, where Norman Rockwell's models are your tour guides, at the Arlington Gallery in Arlington, hometown of Norman Rockwell 1939-53, on historic Route 7A; the world- famous Simon Pearce Glass-Blowing workshop and restaurant in Quechee, VT and the noted Billings Farm Museum in Woodstock.

Your stay also includes our seasonal Fire Pit Patio, FAST Wi-Fi, ROKU HDTVs, Artisan fireplace, a built in oven, Induction cooktop, and a welcoming well-stocked kitchen featuring a new refrigerator, dishwasher, induction cooktop, and cookware-just ask us what you need and we'll let you know if it's at the Chalet.

You will also enjoy a full bathroom on each floor with soaps and towels, two separate living rooms, a game table, a dining area. There are games galore, hundreds of well-chosen books and over 200 DVD movies. Outside, gather at the seasonal 15x25' fire pit patio, play horseshoes, corn hole, or just go for a relaxing walk.

Bringing little ones? We even have 2 high chairs, infant dinnerware, and a pack ‘n’ play with a comfy foam mattress with fresh linens.

Pets are welcome! Up to 3 well-behaved pets. Rates are $40 per night for one pet, $60 for two, $80 per night for three. We have a weekly discount and we often run seasonal specials.
