-The house uses SpaceX Starlink internet so we finally have high speed internet!!!
-Peloton only operates on “just-ride” mode and you are required to bring your own peloton fitted shoes
-The house has 2 pack and plays that can be used
-For VT in general we would recommend 4WD or AWD vehicles over the winter months
-Hot Tub is maintained by a local spa company weekly
-The house is family friendly but isn’t baby proofed.
-The games inside the game room will change from time to time: Air hockey table, which arcades, etc. so please reach out if you would like to confirm.
-You are more than welcome to bring your dog, we just ask that you keep him/her off furniture and beds as it’s difficult to get the hair off and please pick up outside if in trafficked areas. If you would like to bring more than one dog please just reach out for pre-approval. Also, given dogs visit the home on occasion so if you are allergic please take this into consideration
-Due to the serine beautiful location cell service is minimal. We typically use the landline or turn on our Wi-Fi Calling.
-BBQ is stored during peak winter so that it isn't damaged
-Spring and fall are ladybug season in VT and it is very common for ladybugs to gather near windows. They are NOT harmful but we like to give our renters a heads up regardless.
-As expected the river water levels will fluctuate depending on rainfall, etc. There are times when it's shallower and times when it's deeper.

My family and I stayed at this amazing country house for a 3 day weekend. The house was so large and comfortable. The access to the river was close and we enjoyed being outside for most of the weekend. The two 12 yr olds bounced between an incredible game room and the hot tub. Each room was very spacious, clean and comfortable. There was so much to do that we never even left the property. Everything you could need was in the house. The host, Alex, checked in and was available via phone if need be. If you are looking for a family spot to gather, I would highly recommend this house!
The house was as described plenty of space for all 11 of us. Excellent layout kids loved the video games, arcade games, pool table. We all enjoy the hot tub and cooking in the kitchen.Very close to Stratton Mountain with easy access the owners were very responsive and the kitchen had everything we needed. I brought shampoo and soap and salt and pepper, and everything was supplied very much appreciated.
Our stay was fantastic! The house and property are beautiful and the location is secluded and peaceful, which is exactly what we wanted. There are so many things to do around it, so it’s the perfect home base. The property owners/managers were great communicators and recommended some really good places to visit. Weston was one of them and it did not disappoint. Highly recommend staying here!
Our stay was wonderful. Everything as described. The home was nice and cozy. It was big enough to enjoy with our whole family and my in laws and there dog. Plenty of things to do and the property was magical with that river running through it. We def want to come stay again!! Thank you
I would absolutely recommend staying here. The house is beautiful, spacious and so welcoming and warm. The location is great, private but close to town and the surrounding area. The fire pit beach area was so fun to hangout and make smores. We brought our dogs and they loved it! They had a blast in the brook and the fenced in yard area was perfect for them to run and play.
Thank you for such a nice relaxing weekend, we will be back!
Another great vacation at the Pikes Falls farmhouse!
We love this location to kick-back and relax. The fenced in yard is nice for our dog Roxie. We enjoyed cooking smores over the firepit, hiking some of the local trails and spending quiet time with family and friends. Having separate bedrooms/bathrooms for each member of our group is a plus. Alex was very responsive and flexible.
We loved our stay! We had a big group: two families with several college-aged kids and a couple of their friends. There was plenty of room for everyone, a big kitchen for food prep, stocked with plenty of dishware, and a large dining room table. And there was lots of spaces for people to sit and read, or puzzle, or play pool when not out on the slopes. And for runners, we really enjoyed the challenge of running "uphill", including some beautiful views near the top where the road flattened out a bit near the cemetery. We also loved West River Provisions, a store down the road in the center of Jamaica. A great stay!
This was such a great place to stay! It had everything we needed and more. There were 3 couples and my mother-in-law staying here. We each had our own room and private bathroom with shower. Lots of games, including a pool table. A brand new hot tub... so nice! Plenty of towels and supplies. Apparently we hit mud season, which we didn't know was a thing, but when it rained, we all relaxed in the big family room with lots of comfy couches, pillows, and blankets. Another highlight was the massage chair. Amazing. It was in use most of the time. If we get back in the area, we will definitely stay here again. The hosts were very accommodating and helpful and communication was great. Thanks for letting us celebrate my mother-in-law's 80th in such a beautiful place.
Alex and Rebecca’s VT retreat is a true gem! As a group of 12, with 3 different families including kids of all different ages, the layout of the house was ideal. Each family had their own bedroom and bathroom, with rooms to spare! There was endless entertainment for the children and plenty of cozy spots to spread out and relax in. It never felt crowded. The massage chair was a big hit for the whole family, especially after some great days at the mountain. Stratton is a quick 7 minute drive from the house, which made going back and forth throughout the day easy. The backyard and property itself is beautiful, with a babbling brook and tons of land to explore and fields of snow to play in! The kids especially enjoyed finding ladybugs in the window sills and setting them free outside. A highlight for them :) We definitely hope to make this house a yearly winter tradition for our family! Thank you for keeping such a clean, beautiful and cozy home.
This is an excellent choice for extended families who want together time as well as privacy and outdoor space for kids and space where adults can gather and play cards in the evening without waking up kids sleeping upstairs. House—a former boarding house—is generous in size and well furnished, and property is distinctive in that it's got a good sized fenced in yard great for young children and about half an acre of the property around the house is mowed, which makes for good play areas for grown-ups as well as kids. There's a river behind the house, and a great natural pool to splash in about 50 yards up river. Importantly, Alex and Rebecca were attentive hosts. We got to the property just a few days after the terrible mid-July floods that tore up the local roads, and on our first day in the house received a flyer from the Town of Jamaica warning us about another storm on the horizon and saying further damage to the roads could leave us isolated for a while. I called Alex, and he arranged for us to move out that night to a house in the nearby Stratton ski resort, and we stayed there two nights and then were able to return to the first house without worry. Excellent handyman associated with the house, so when something went wrong—a dishwasher that wouldn't drain all the way—Eddie was over in a couple of hours and fixed the problem. And if you're in the habit of getting up early, and are capable of walking quietly, you'll find deer by the river until they see you.
This house is a wonderful place for a large family. Places to hide away. Rooms for entertainment and so much more. This home is so quite really family friendly. We loved everything about our stay.
Enjoyed the property immensely. So much room and well equipped and maintained. Host were great and communicated quickly. We didn’t encounter any problems. Spent time in Manchester which was 26 mins away. Would definitely go again and I highly recommend this property. Pool table and game room were awesome
We love this property for a family/friends vacation. It allows everyone to have their own bed/bath. The backyard has a fenced in area for our dog and multiple firepits (which we did not use this year due to the drought in the area). The property has seen recent upgrades/renovations which only enhanced our stay. Alex is very responsive to any questions of issues that might arise. We will definitely be back!
My family enjoyed having the space for everyone to have their own bedroom/bathroom. The property was dog friendly and our dog loved swimming in the creek and having a fenced area to lounge around in the sun. We loved all the indoor and outdoor spaces and made great memories at the property.
This is a lovely old house near a river on a quiet country road. Our family and friends enjoyed quiet time, lots of games/movies, cooking out, sitting by the firepit and walking along the river. Everyone loved having their own bedroom/bathroom and our dog enjoyed splashing in the swimming hole and playing in the backyard. Hosts were very responsive and flexible. We hope to come back next year!
We found this to be a charming old house located along a gentle river. It was a perfect getaway for our family and dog. We had fun exploring neighboring towns, Stratton Ski resort, hiking to waterfalls and just hanging out by the river to swim and build sandcastles.
Thank you for opening your home to us!
We had a wonderful family reunion at this quintessentially New England sprawling Vermont farmhouse. This home is set up perfectly for large groups, and it easily accommodated our multigenerational family reunion. It felt like we had an entire Bed and Breakfast to ourselves. We can't wait to go back!
