Mountain Retreat Getaway 5 Min to Swimming Pond

Work from home with air conditioning and high speed 200Mbps wifi and enjoy spectacular views of Stratton Mountain at this newly renovated chalet perched on the top of a hill located in Winhall, VT. Just minutes to the beautiful Stratton Snow Making Pond where you can kayak, canoe, paddle board and enjoy a summer swim.

Air conditioning - The top floor has air conditioning and the bottom floor stays cool even when temperatures reach the 90s. This is because the home was built on a concrete slab. Additionally, cool air from the upstairs air conditioner helps to keep the downstairs cool. The bedrooms do not have individual air conditioning units but stay very comfortable even when it’s hot out.

There are three comfortable bedrooms located on the first floor and a beautiful loft-style living space with vaulted ceilings, a dining room and brand new kitchen on the second floor. The home has a large wrap-around deck with views of Stratton Mountain, a brand new Weber grill and outdoor speakers.

Two of the bedrooms have queen size beds (Beautyrest and Casper mattresses) and one of them has a full-size bed (Beautyrest mattress). The bedrooms are approximately 11 x 10 feet and have a beautiful, clean aesthetic, each with its own vibe. There is also a queen-size, air mattress by Serta that is available to use as well.

The top floor has largely been renovated and has a lovely, professionally designed living room with a wood-burning fireplace. There is plenty of wood which is complementary and we also stock fire-starters for your stay. There is a workspace area in the living room that has a comfortable desk and chair and a wireless printer.

There is a fully-stocked and well equipped, brand new kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a Bosch dishwasher. Our *new* modern bathroom has heated floors, a walk-in shower, and a new washer dryer set located on the first floor. There is also a renovated half-bathroom with a toilet and sink on the upper level.

Outside there is a new Breeo stainless steel firepit which is wonderful to sit by as it's about 95% smokeless and outdoor Jenga. There is a new Weber grill which is a delight to cook on.
The house has a wrap-around private deck with beautiful views. The house has an on-site washer and dryer and guests can enjoy the entire space and all of the amenities. Additionally, we only use green and organic cleaning materials.

Centrally located:
-5 minutes to a beautiful local pond (featured in the images)
-10 minutes from Stratton Village/Base Stratton Mountain
-Stratton mountain biking features 5.81 miles of downhill mountain biking trails, including MTB rentals and lessons
-5 minutes to Winhall, VT town (Winhall Market and more)
-15 minutes to Manchester Center, VT (maybe even run into Alec Baldwin)
-17 minutes to Londonderry, VT
-20 minutes to Dorset, VT (Sunday farmers market is excellent)
-24 minutes to Weston, VT (the original Vermont Country Store)
-53 minutes to Rutland, VT (Vermont State Fair in August)

There are so many good indoor games:
-Monopoly
-Uno
-Who's Most Likely to
-Tic Tac To
-Scrabble

And outdoor games and amenities:
-Firepit and seating area
-Hot tub
-Jenga
-Outdoor speakers
-New Weber grill

Favorite Things to Do in the Area in Summer 2024:
The home is a wonderful place to stay for Manchester VT weddings and for visiting the Manchester VT outlets. Eddie Bauer, Vineyard Vines, Theory, Kate Spade, Marimekko, Ralph Lauren are just a few of the great outlets in the own. Be sure to stop by Mrs. Murphy's Donuts while in Manchester Center.
Hildene, the Lincoln Family Home in Manchester, VT, is fun to visit. It's an incredible property with a goat farm and you can spend all day walking the grounds. Equinox Preservation Trust has great trails that wrap around a pond and there is a nice hike to Robin's lookout. Lye Brook Falls is another favorite and we also highly recommend stopping by the Southern Vermont Arts Center in a beautiful Georgian mansion. If you are into fly fishing, you'll want to stop by the American Museum of Fly Fishing. For fine dining, be sure to make a reservation in advance at Silver Fork or definitely try out the Reluctant Panther. The chalet is also a great place for equestrian events. Emerland Lake State Park is a beautiful park in East Dorset with hiking trails, a beach, a picnic area, boat rentals and a lake that guests can kayak in.

We have had many wonderful families stay with us, but the home is not child-proof and the home is furnished with several glass tables (the kitchen table has soft corners) and a stone fireplace.

Great family vacation in a chalet
Our family had a great vacation here. We were at the mountain a lot during the day and this was the perfect place to come back to. It’s so close you can come back half day for a break before you hit the slopes for more. The house was very clean and had all the amenities we needed. There is a beautiful mountain view from the house. Highly recommend.
