Our stay at Rachel's farmhouse was everything that we expected and more. The property is in a beautiful location, steps away from a charming wood bridge, local shops and small eateries in Waitsfield. It backs against beautiful Mad River with a walking path nearby. There is easy access to Sugarbush, Mt. Ellen and Mad River Glen ski areas. Free shuttle is at the end of the street. However, if you want to explore the area more, it's best to have a car. We didn't actually meet the owners but Rachel communicated very clearly before and during our stay and we knew how to contact her if anything came up. She left the loveliest treats outside our door for Valentine's Day. If you're looking for a low key vacation in a picturesque Vermont setting that is not over-touristy, this is the place to be. We'll be back.
