Anthony and the Bennington Monument. Wander the park-like trails through 4 acres of old apple orchard and woodland. Enjoy a soak under the stars in a 6-person hot-tub with total privacy. Why get a bed and breakfast when you can have a house and land all to yourself? This vacation rental is located in southwestern Vermont, less than 12 minutes from downtown Bennington (but still feels very quiet and secluded). Pick apples, bird-watch, and view other wildlife like deer, grouse, wild turkeys, rabbits, Lynx, and Bob-cats. Excellent fly fishing on the nearby Battenkill river. Attend the summer horse shows in nearby Manchester. Enjoy the world-famous Vermont fall foliage. Watch the flowers bloom in the spring. Ski or snowshoe in the winter. Enjoy a bon-fire in the back-yard. Five major ski areas are located within an hour's drive. House is fully furnished and has slate shower, bear-claw bath tub, NEW gas cooking stove (top end model), microwave, refrigerator, dish washer, bread maker, waffle maker, cable, DVD/VCR, and wireless internet, plus two wood stoves and free wood to keep you warm at night (There's also central air heating and a mini-split heating and cooling system to keep you comfortable no matter the weather). There's a large downstairs master bedroom with its own gas stove/fireplace for ambiance and extra heat. There is a living room, dining area, and another small room that could sleep 2 with large electric blowup mattress on site. A spiral staircase leads up to a large loft with a full-sized spring mattress futon. There's also a love seat that pulls out into a double size bed. The house can accommodate up to 7 people depending on the sleeping arrangements. The first 2 guests of the party are not charged an extra guest fee. The barnhouse was actually part of a large picturesque Vermont farm just up the dirt road (and view-able from some parts of the property) until it was rolled down on logs and converted into a house some years ago.

So close to town, yet amazingly quiet and private. My husband and I booked our stay to enjoy the Green Mountain Bluegrass & Roots Festival in Manchester, so we spent most of our stay off the property, but we loved returning at night to peace & quiet, and enjoyed the hot tub under the stars. We did a lot of bird watching (we live on the ocean so we don’t get much more than seagulls and pelicans!). We also explored the trails around the property as well.

This clean, well thought out home came equipped with all the amenities and if we did need anything, our kind and accommodating host Lars was a phone call or text away. There are a few recommended eateries and breweries nearby, but we were content utilizing the kitchen and enjoying our quiet sanctuary, which included a small network of trails right in the backyard which kept our pup busy. The wooden swing along the trail with the picturesque view is a fabulous touch. Even better... enjoying the hot tub under the stars with a variety of ornamental solar lights twinkling throughout the property was a very cool addition. A very memorable stay which has certainly earned a return visit in the warmer months so we can enjoy more of what beautiful Vermont has to offer. Many thanks, Lars for sharing The Barn and for your A-1 hospitality! ##### Rich C.

Our longest drive to go do something was only nine minutes away. Everything was as promised. The only issue we had was the back door entry. The hot tub is right there and when we were standing outside watching nature, we saw bees and wasps going underneath the hot tub. so because we were both chickens, we never went into the hot tub. I probably should’ve called the owner to let him know, but I was a little embarrassed, thinking what a big babies we are!! ##### bonnie M.

We fell in love with this extremely private converted barn. It was private and in the country but minutes from attractions, restaurants and shopping. Lars is an amazing host and very responsive. We were lucky enough to have a clear and starry night for one of our hot tub nights. We had a fire and sat on the rockling glider bench equipped with cup holders as we browned our marshmallows for our S'mores. The wild rabbits welcomed us home after our adventures during the day and when we arrived. There is a Keurig, so bring your k-cups! There is also a regular coffee maker. The washes and dryer made it nice to clean our clothes and bring less with us. This truly was an amazing area of Vermont we had never been to and we will be back! ##### Ron O.

Not only does this place have the ultimate cozy cabin feel it also has so much character. From the stained glass and funky cabin decor to the claw foot tub and incredibly comfortable mattress of the log frame bed. The wood stoves create so much warmth and ambiance but there is also the option for central heat which is nice too. My husband and I stayed with our 2 college aged boys for a few days of skiing at Mt Snow and Okemo. The boys had plenty of room to sleep between the comfy futon and high quality inflatable mattress or couches. The hot tub was wonderful after a day of skiing, the star gazing beautiful. The town of Bennington is 5 min away with restaurants/market but other towns less than 20 min away offer amenities as well. The host, Lars was incredibly helpful, patient and accommodating. Great communication! We would like to come back in the warmer months too as the property and location are a perfect Vermont destination! ##### Kari C.

Every area of it is cozy and warm, and put together rather nicely. The antiques on the wall and the bathtub with a large window to look out at the expansive property made it feel especially homey. It was also a really thoughtful touch to provide wood, as there are so many places around the property to light a great fire, both inside and out. ##### Brianna H.
