Your group will have the best vacation ever at this spacious, eight-bedroom, four-bathroom home nestled on 500 private acres in the majestic Green Mountains of Vermont. How about an entire 22-acre, freshwater-spring-fed lake all to yourselves? Yes, this lake is exclusively yours - no one else but your party will be allowed on it or near it while you're there. There are even two canoes and an assortment of life jackets in the boathouse for your use. And cold-weather guests can ski and hang out while sipping hot cocoa next to the toasty fireplace during the winter months.
This is the perfect vacation home for large groups. There's no need to worry about the neighbors because there are none. You'll also have plenty of parking for several vehicles. Not only does the lake feature fantastic swimming, canoeing, and fishing, but there's also a lakeside firepit and a 40-foot deck built over the lake with plenty of tables, chairs, and umbrellas. Bringing the kids? There's a swimming area marked off for them and a sandbox to keep them busy. Upstairs, you'll find a spacious play/game room, which is also a huge hit with all ages. One side of the room is for kids 10 and under, stocked with games, crafts, puzzles, and toys; the other side features a full-size pool table and a Ping-Pong table. The kitchen has a Vulcan restaurant cooking stove with six gas burners, double ovens, and a big griddle top! If you don't feel like cooking inside, we offer a large gas grill on the deck as well.
What's nearby:
Besides the incredible forest and lake, you're less than 10 minutes from the Magic Mountain Ski Area, which features a 1,500-foot vertical drop and a trail over a mile and a half long for cruising. For year-round activities, head up to Okemo Mountain Resort, where you can ski in the winter, cruise on the timber coaster, work out at the fitness center, and even get in some golfing. Think outside the box and take a day trip to Orvis to learn fly fishing or try Mountain View Ranch for horseback riding - both are just about 30 miles away. Manchester is a big hit with everyone, with great restaurants, outlet shopping, and parks within a 15-20-minute drive.
