Check-in was easy and the house was all set up and dialed in for a hot day. AC was on and fans were set up. They even left really cute cookies!!!The coffee maker was AWESOME and there were 2 refrigerators which was so luxurious. Hot tub was really nice and clean and perfect temp. Everyone had a ton of fun and loved the uniqueness of the lodge. My calves are sore from going up and down the stairs so many times.Great memories were made and we want to come back!!!

Wonderful home in Ripton
This is truly a property that keeps on giving. We stayed in the summer, when the hiking and outdoors are great. Our dogs loved the fenced in backyard, and the location in Ripton is stupendous. Their are well-known trails throughout the National Forest, and a couple of lesser known trails within walking distance (we see you SPirit In Nature!).
The house itself is very comfortable. The kitchen is built to support a large group (two fridges!) and there are many nooks to explore and hide out. Everything was clean.
The Game Room? Don't get me started. Fun for all ages.

Spacious and comfortable home
Convenient to Middlebury, we brought family and Godparents together to celebrate our daughter graduating from Middlebury College. The house is comfortable and spacious. Large, well-equipped kitchen. Hosts were great -- very responsive, helpful, and clear communication. This was a great find -- highly recommend.
