Our large chalet (4 bedroom, 2 bath, sleeps 10) in Southern Vermont has everything you need for a memorable trip. It has a rustic feel with the natural wood walls and cathedral ceilings upstairs, and two fieldstone fireplaces all located in a private and natural setting. Summer renters note - our sandy beach and dock at Lake Raponda is only a 10-minute walk through the woods. We have a canoe stored near the water available for your use. But you will also find most of the luxuries of home such as two TVs with cable, two VCRs with a small collection of movies, living room stereo with hook-up for your Ipod or MP3 player, a second living room/family room, a dishwasher, washer & dryer, and much more. This vacation property is real Vermont, real close. Our home is in a perfect location. Since it is only 2 ½ hours from Boston and 4 hours from NYC you’ll spend more of your precious vacation time at our house or on the mountain and less of it on the road. It is only a short drive from the house to Mount Snow or into “downtown” Wilmington. This postcard pretty small town has many unique and old-fashioned shops. There is something for everyone: homemade fudge, Vermont cheeses, old fashion toys, souvenirs, art galleries, a quilting shop, restaurants, and even a brewery to name a few. Just outside of the downtown area (even closer to our home) is a large grocery store. Please visit our main website at www.vacationvt.netfirms.com for even more information. The home is available short term rentals during the ski season, weekly during July and August, and for spring/fall weeks or weekends
