Great family gateway
We booked the house for a family ski weekend. The house is situated in a quiet environment with nice surroundings, 5 minutes driving distance from Windham slopes. It is spacious, clean, functional and well equipped. Very bright and pleasant living space with nice views. Also safe for our toddler. Great care has been given to make it welcoming. Perfect for a family gateway.

Great house for weekend getaway
This is a place you would like to spend a weekend or even longer with friends and family. The lake is right near the house, with everything you need. The fire pit next to the lake is so wonderful, we all love it so much. This is a great house, we will book it again in the future.

Great vacation getaway with private lake
This house has it all. The private lake and view are beautiful, you can spend the whole day out there! We really enjoyed the house, very clean, not cluttered, big open living area. The bedrooms and beds were also comfortable. They provide loads of extra towels which was good since we were in the lake so often. The upper porch was great for the babies since it does not have steps. This home is a real vacation, away from it all with a private lake, boats, tubes, the sprawling grounds to play ball and more, the view and all. (We thought it would be too far away from any civilization but found it to be the perfect blend. It has a huge grassy area in the front which sets it away from the road with no neighbors too close by, yet there are cars that drive by every once in a while so you don't feel totally alone.) We really enjoyed our stay.

natural beauty and attention to detail
The following is an excerpt from an e-mail sent to the proprietor and the assistant/property manager to inform them of our complete satisfaction-just beautiful! We loved it so much we returned! "In addition to the beauty and tranquility of the property, we also have made note of the way in which both yourself and Kip treat your "house guests"-just simple things such as firewood, kitchen facilities, paper products etc. and asking if we are in need of anything shows your attention to detail. Again, our sincere gratitude and we are looking forward to the lovely weeks ahead at the mountain retreat!" Thank you Lynn and Kip for continuing to always make our stay a lovely one!

Beautiful! Relaxing! Perfect!
I spent 4th of July weekend with a group of friends at this wonderful mountain retreat, and it was all that we wished and more!! The views are spectacular, the private pond and the mountains added so much to our stay. It was like being on a private resort...the home had everything we needed to have fun and enjoy this long summer weekend, and we are already planning to return next year. Thank you so much for providing such an amazing spot for a long weekend getaway! And it must be noted how accommadating and easy it was to communicate with the owner and with flipkey whenever I had any questions-- 5 Stars!
