2nd Great Stay
The Red Barn is perfect for our group, this is our 2nd time there. Plenty of room in both the house and property, where we can sit out by fire or use the hot tub, and not worry about the closeness of any neighbors if were up a little late. Having the spacious barn for activities if foul weather is also a definite plus

Lovely home
My siblings and I stayed at the Red Barn to attend an extended family reunion at Lake Elmore State Park. It was the perfect location and it is a beautiful home. We had plenty of room and everything we needed. The barn was an added bonus with the ping pong and basketball hoop. We’d stay there again.

Family Reunion at Lake Elmore
Our family of about 40 gathered at Lake Elmore for a reunion. My family of 5 adults and one 18 month old stayed at The Red Barn. It was the perfect size, nice location to the lake, plenty of beds, a pack and play and a welled needed baby gate we put to use. Barn was fun for baby to run around in and shooting hoop for adults.We didn’t use hot tub but there is one there. Nice size deck and gas grill. Unfortunately the deck umbrella was broken but again we didn’t need. Host was quick to answer questions. Overall I would recommend if you want to be near the lake. Big screen TV’s nice as well.

Comfortable and unique!
Our family had a wonderful week long stay at this home in late August. The home was comfortable and clean, with plenty of spaces for everyone to sleep and hang out. Our two kids LOVED the barn with the chance to play ping pong and basketball; what a unique and fun feature! The large yard was awesome for playing too, and the hot tub was a treat! The house itself is beautiful and of high quality (gorgeous wood throughout, nice furniture, etc.). The beds were very comfortable - some of the comfiest we've ever had at a rental home. Both the owner and property manager were extremely responsive anytime we had a question, which we greatly appreciated. All in all, we highly recommend this rental if you're looking for a unique and memorable Vermont vacation!

Great Weekend Away
The check in and check out process were both extremely easy. Everything we needed to know was in the email and there was not an excessive amount of instructions to follow. The property was clean, had comfortable beds and the kitchen was well stocked. We had everything we needed. In a perfect world the property would have been closer to Stowe mountain - it was about a 30 minute drive for us. Overall a great property to stay at. Would recommend and stay again.

Lovely home, lots to do
Thank you for sharing your beautiful house with us! The basketball and ping pong were especially big hits with our kids (ages 10-14) and the layout of the space gave each family plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen was great for cooking for our crowd of 8 and we enjoyed the remote quietness of the location while still being an easy drive into Stowe and Morristown. Only negative was the occasional mouse which we spotted in both the kitchen and lower level, but we expect he/she may have snuck in during our comings and goings from the attached barn. That said, you’re in the country amongst wildlife so it would be nearly impossible to be mouse free in such a location I’d imagine! Overall, we really enjoyed ourselves and had a memorable getaway!

Myself and 4 buddies spent long weekend hiking in the area. We found this home a great place to come back to. Condition of home was excellent. Amenities were just right. Sleeping arrangements were also very comfortable. We wouldn't hesitate to rebook this location again. Thank you for making our annual trip very memorable.

Versatile property
2 days into our stay we found ourselves isolating due to covid. Fortunately the different areas of the property indoors and outdoors enabled our family group to have the space each person needed to rest or follow their chosen pursuits and the beautiful deck and outdoor grassed areas meant we could also still enjoy the beautiful weather and interesting wildlife. We knew on day one we were in for an exciting stay when a black bear sauntered past the house along the access road. We also saw several deer and a range of large and small birds around the property. Once back in the community, we enjoyed time in Montpelier, Stowe and Morristown sampling the local shops and cafes with great delight. The only challenge was keeping our grand-daughter safe from the various sets of stairs in the house. The listing advertised baby gates which it turned out were not available and the manager's attempts to provide some in retrospect did not happen before our stay ended. The lower floor of the property was , however , a great place for the child to play and relax in safety and to access the garden with ease.

Wonderful stay near Lake Elmore
We loved our stay at the Red Barn! The space and location worked perfectly for our close friends to stay together during our wedding weekend in Elmore, VT. The Barn, complete with basketball hoop, was an especially fun touch. The check in process was seamless, and communications helpful. We will certainly keep this place in mind for future visits in the area!

Beautiful home with plenty to do!
Our group loved our stay at this beautiful home. Upon arrival, the house was very clean and the check-in process was easy. There was so much to do during our stay as well. The barn with basketball hoop and ping pong table was great, but the hot tub may have been our favorite part. There beds and bedrooms were very comfortable and there were plenty of bathrooms for our group. 10/10.

We stayed at this property with 3 other couples to celebrate a Birthday. It was the perfect set up for 4 couples! We made great use of the barn, sledding hill, hot tub and surrounding area for snowshoeing. The owner had fantastic communication, answering all of the questions I sent to him prior to our arrival. I would definitely recommend this home for a quiet country get away!

Great Framily Vacation!
We had four adults and four kids (ages 5-9). This house was perfect for our two families. There was good space for everyone, plenty of bathrooms, and we could all eat together. The drive to Stowe to ski was totally reasonable. The only thing is that I would be more clear about the bedrooms in the listing. There are three “regular” bedrooms and an open loft. We expected five bedrooms. Still worked great for us, though. We plan to be back!

Magical snow globe in VT
We book annual MLK ski trips all over VT to reunite with friends, and we fell in love with this spot. It was worth the 7-12 hour drives everyone endured. The house is clean and so homey. There was every TV channel you could need (Netflix Hulu etc) and everything an equipped kitchen could offer (many pots & pans, spice rack, utensils and endless cutlery-plates, etc.). The beds were comfortable and warm. It could accommodate 11-people if needed. The pull out queen in the basement was very large and comfortable too. We had no problems with linens and towels and more than enough were provided. The hot tub is such a bonus to this property! Especially after a long day at Stowe Mountain! Location wise you have Montpellier less than 30-minutes and down 1 road. About 10-minutes away is a local trail to snowshoe. Local grocery stores and beer stores available less than 10-minutes away. Crystal managed the property incredibly well too. She was responsive to my questions prior to the trip. We loved it and hope to be back next MLK!

Vermont at its finest!
The Red Barn was fantastic! Everything was in good working condition and well maintained. Plenty of super dry wood for the fire and an easy kitchen to navigate complete with pots, pans, serving dishes and extra spices. Bedrooms were comfy and 3 full bathrooms were a luxury. This is the Gold Standard for VRBO's. We commuted to/from Stowe for skiing. It was Xmas week so traffic off the mtn added to the 30-40 min. commute but worth the trip. Kids enjoyed ping pong and the Barn which is an architectural and engineering marvel!
