Ski Trip
Friendly host, ans check in process was very simple. House was big enough for 8 adults and 6 children. Location is 30-40 mins away from stratton, which we decided to go fo skiing. It felt a little further away due to traffic and busy long weekend.

Vermont stay
Our large group had a great time. There was something for everyone between downtown Manchester and Bromley mountain. The house was great and could accommodate everyone comfortably. It was great to have a full kitchen for meals and a large living room and dining room for seating and hanging out.

Wonderful stay
We all enjoyed our stay at the reunion house. Our family group consisted of 13 adults and our dogs. We all had a wonderful time. Melissa was very quick to answer our questions. The grounds are beautiful. The home is not far from the lovely town of Manchester. Although the home could use some updating, this didn’t impact our wonderful stay. We would love to vacation there again in the future.
