We had a truly wonderful stay at the Ponderosa! The home is incredibly spacious and comfortably accommodated our large group, including kids. It was spotless and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed, making it easy to settle in right away. We especially loved the second living room downstairs, which gave us extra space to gather, play games, and relax while keeping things quiet after the kids went to bed. The hot tub was a highlight we enjoyed and the outdoor chiminea added such cozy ambiance to our evenings. The expansive yard was perfect for the kids. We even shoveled a small sledding trail that they had an absolute blast with. It was such a simple but memorable part of our trip. The location felt private and rejuvenating, yet it was still an easy drive to groceries, Stowe Village for dinners, and Stowe Mountain for skiing. Red Cottage was communicative, kind, and seamless to work with. The next time we visit the area, we can’t wait to book the Ponderosa again!
