Would stay here again!
Overall this was a wonderful home that feels cozy and with a lot of space! Location is good, there’s a good selection of places to visit nearby or mountains to go ski. My only real concern was that it can be quite icy getting up the hill to the parking/garage.

Wonderful winter getaway!
We were a large group of adults, teens and tweens and this house was perfect for our vacation! There are so many private nooks to have some alone time along with a great open family room and kitchen area to come together. We loved its charm, its coziness and variety of spaces. David was great to work with and very accommodating. Would definitely recommend and book again.

Nice vacation home..!
We all had a nice stay.. All families enjoyed their stay with ample amounts of space to live, cook, eat and sleep . The kitchen was equipped with ton of kitchen utensils and other items made our life easier to cook . The place as really looked historic with all interiors , with few initial hiccups like thermostat not working and we have to swap and or charge to make it work few times as we enter the living room was super cold. Otherwise all is well. Worth for thr money we paid.Thanks Dave for being a super host, who helped me through out the stay before and during and after with a quick response for all my messages.

Vermont stay
All in all we had a nice time in VT. The house was cool. Very interesting and Lots too explore. We enjoyed hanging in the main living room and enjoyed watching movies with the kids and playing music. Super close to the Vermont country store, which is why we stayed there.

Spacious home in a nice location
Our extended family of 15 enjoyed our stay at The Historic Rideout. The house is spacious and is nicely equipped. It is in a nice quiet location with a small waterfall and park across the street which we used for a family photoshoot. The owner was very responsive to our questions. The owner provided a lot of information on the house and the area. The Vermont Country Store was a 5 minute walk away.

Great spot!
The house is fantastic, and in a great location. Despite all the floods the week before everyone on our golf trip had a great time. Just be cognitive of the neighbors at night as our small group didn’t realize they are right next door.
David the host was great the house is awesome and everyone had a fantastic time! Would love to rent again with my wife and son!

We really enjoyed staying here.. Great property that has got a lot of character in it.
The highlight of this place that I really liked is the campfire set up beside a small creek. I definitely recommend staying here. Last but not the least, the host was prompt in responding to any questions or concerns I had making sure the check in and check out process was hassle-free.

Great place
This house was more than large enough for 15 people (8 adults, 7 kids). Very short walk to town and 15 minute drive to Ludlow. The house itself is fantastic! Rustic floors and lots of natural light. Two streams, one in back next to fire pit with great view of surrounding hills and foliage, and another stream in front across the street. The property owner was very easy to work with and responsive.

Excellent ski weekend
We had a great 2 night stay for 8 people up for the weekend to ski Okemo. Check-in process was very smooth and we had just the right amount of communication with David. The house itself is truly unique and great for large groups (likely too much house for 8 people) and only 15 minutes to the lift. Would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a convenient ski weekend or stay in southern VT with family and friends.
