New outdoor 7 person hot tub & Traeger Pellet BBQ! This renovated 1832 Vermont retreat is a whopping 6,500 sq ft and is minutes to 4 ski resorts. The home has 14 beds in 8 comfortable bedrooms and is jam packed with amenities. The retreat is perfect for family gatherings, couples retreats, or a crew of longtime friends. Tons of space to enjoy indoors and out with a chef's kitchen, hot tub, sauna, outdoor fire pit and ponds in the yard. This historic retreat has served as an old farm house, an Inn, a cross-country ski lodge, and a hydrotherapy center since the 1830's. Remnants of the post and beam construction are still present in beautiful hand hued beams. The house has a taste of the old and the new. The front of the home is quintessential Vermont and full of rustic charm. The other end of the home is warm and cozy with a state-of-the-art kitchen, living room and spa. As our reviews will tell you, the home has character and is quite unique from any other rental. The home sits on the foothills of the Green Mountains - Stratton (15 minutes), Magic (5min) which won Best in Snow Award for the entire US by Liftopia, Bromley (10 minutes) Okemo (20 minutes), Appalachian trail (12 minutes), and VAST trails (2 minutes). In the Green Mountains you will find endless trails great for hiking and exploring. While we are known for our winter wonderland, we absolutely SHINE in the summer time. Flowers blooming everywhere, ducks swimming in the ponds, birds singing in the trees and babbling brooks lulling you to sleep. No neighbors to worry about either. Sit out on the hammock and take an afternoon nap in the warm sun. So many activities nearby: hiking, biking, kayaking, paddle board, fishing, boating or swimming in one of three pristine lakes near by. For the foodies - Londonderry is home to an amazing amount of farm to table businesses that will provide you with innovative, delicious and extremely fresh meals. A nationally recognized bakery - Grandma Miller's is only 5 minutes away. Summers (May-Oct) there is a local farmers market within walking distance. ## Property amenities ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby - Ski lift privileges - Snowboarding nearby ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub - Massage - Sauna ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Chef service - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 8 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 6 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair - Office - Printer ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Phone ### Location highlights - In a village - In the city center - In the mountains - Near a hospital - Near an outlet shopping mall - On a lake ### Things to do - Gym - Kayak - Ski lift privileges - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Ice skating nearby - Kayaking nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Sledding nearby - Snowmobiling nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 6,500 square feet ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/83000000/82830000/82822100/82822044/097481c1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Green Mountain Manor - Ski and Summer Chalet Winhall - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 9.8 Exceptional 7 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-13&endDate=2025-11-14&selected=82822044&PinnedHotelID=82822044&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/90000000/89640000/89634800/89634796/bbecd038.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Your own Private Lake - Breathtaking Views - Gym - Sauna - Hot Tub Peru - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 33 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-13&endDate=2025-11-14&selected=89634796&PinnedHotelID=89634796&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/36000000/35880000/35874600/35874511/06fa8e52.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 500 acre historic property w/private fishing lake, skiing + all-season fun Londonderry - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 9.2 Wonderful 44 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-13&endDate=2025-11-14&selected=35874511&PinnedHotelID=35874511&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/36000000/35240000/35232700/35232672/f48d2249.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Fireplace, Ski-Okemo, Apple Trees, Piano, Amazing Views, Firepit, Priory, Pool, Fields, Theatre!

We had a nice fire in the firepit out back, used the hot tub which was great on the cool evenings, made fresh coffee every morning in the gourmet kitchen, and took advantage of the two dining rooms and two living rooms with our large group. Dave was responsive, provided great recommendations, and was proactive in his communication.

The list of things to love about this place is long - a huge living room with eight recliners, lots of tables and desks for writing, a great fitness room for morning yoga & workouts, lovely outdoor spaces including a hot tub, fire pit, and frog-filled pond, and a the best equipped rental house kitchen I've ever seen. We'll be back! ##### Kate M. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Will G.

There is one room in that house that doesn't have doors, just curtains, so that was the only negative thing I'd have to say. Otherwise, the house was incredible, clean, comfortable, and just a really, really great place to spend the weekend with a big group of friends and family!! ##### Jaime S.

Aug 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing Vermont getaway Our family booked a late summer weekend at the Red Brick Retreat. We needed some rest and rejuvenation before the busy school year, and this stay exceeded our expectations! First, the host was highly accessible and provided all kinds of useful information (including advice about local running routes). Check in was easy, and the host answered a few small questions instantly. And the Red Brick Retreat is a memorable place with everything a family needs - and then some! From charming centuries-old rooms to a well-stocked gourmet kitchen, plenty of bathrooms and places to hang out, this house has it all. We also enjoyed the hot tub and gym, then relaxed in the loungers to watch a family movie. Although it was tempting not to leave the house, the local area is full of delights (food, farms, shopping, lakes, hiking). We brought home wonderful memories and appreciate being well taken care of during our last summer hurrah. Many thanks to the owners for a lovely experience! ##### Jennifer Frederick H.

We stayed at David's property for a long weekend at the end of March with a group of 15 adults and a toddler. This house was perfect for our group's needs. The main floor is huge and open, so folks can be doing their own thing without missing out on plans or group activities. Rooms and amenities were exactly as described and the instructions were very clear. With 8 bedrooms we were able to fit our large group comfortably, which was incredible. Location-wise, the house is central to several towns and ski resorts, so we did not have to drive very far for anything. It is located off a main VT road as well, so there was no worry about steep hills and unplowed snow or ice. David was a proactive and timely communicator and made the planning process very simple. I have no complaints and would happily stay here again! ##### Cameron S.

Jul 11, 2023 #### Amazing House For Yoga Retreat In May 2023 I hosted a yoga retreat for 16 people. When we all arrived at the magical Red Brick Retreat everything fell into place perfectly. The house I rented from Vermont Escapes checked every box that I didn't even realize I had. Nothing was overlooked - giant communal spaces, heavenly beds, hot tub, sauna, amazing decor, beautiful nature, gourmet kitchen... it was Vermont at its finest. The house was very large and comfortable to fit a group with diverse needs. Our group can't wait to come back to the Red Brick Retreat next year. If you ever have any questions about hosting a group at the Red Brick Retreat please message me on Instagram @heidikassneryoga and I am happy to answer all of your questions or provide thoughts on things to do in the area. ##### Heidi K. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kieran D., Arlington, VA Oct 14, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A cozy retreat! Our family very much enjoyed our stay at the Red Brick Retreat. The kitchen was well stocked with all the equipment we could ask for, including 2 waffle makers. The space was well maintained, even if some spaces are showing their age a little bit. Included firewood made the outdoor fire pit a great place to gather, and the games and entertainment systems were great. With all the options these days between cable and streaming services, navigating the proper inputs on some of the equipment was tricky, but we figured it out. :-) The electronic, full-size piano was nice surprise. This was more than enough room for our four families totaling 12 people. And the recommended catering of dinners from Jason made the whole weekend easy. stress-free, and DELICIOUS!

Sep 18, 2023 #### Perfect setting for a retreat This charming, clean, comfortable, and spacious property had everything we could have asked for in a retreat setting. We were eight women who write children's books, coming together for a five-day writing retreat, and this house checked so many boxes on our wish list. Eight bedrooms, a huge well-stocked kitchen so we could cook meals, three big wooden tables and eight cozy recliners where people could write, as well as a well equipped fitness room for daily exercise, lovely ponds in the yard (with frogs!), a clean, functioning hot tub, and a great fire pit with Adirondack chairs. Also - convenient parking for eight cars, which isn't always easy to come by. Communication with the owners was always prompt, friendly, and helpful. A few additional details that will be helpful in your planning if you stay here: -When I say well stocked kitchen, I mean REALLY well stocked. Spice cabinet, pots, pans, utensils, and even specialty items like cake pans. We realized after arriving that we had a birthday that week & even found some birthday candles in a kitchen drawer. -The fitness room is also very well-equipped. Some of us brought weights from home & didn't need to. In addition to the elliptical, treadmill, and bike you see in the photo, there were yoga balls, mats, a couple of kettlebells (the heaviest was 35lbs) and hand weights that ranged from 3 pounds to 30 pounds. -In case it's not totally clear from the photos, there are two bedrooms that are much larger than the others (lilac attic and the chalet) and those have private bathrooms. The other bedrooms share bathrooms, usually two bedrooms per bathroom. There's also a day bed in the big open living room/dining room. SO much space for people to spread out. -For morning walkers/runners - there's a good walking route if you turn right out of the driveway and then take your first left turn off Rt. 11 onto Little Pond Rd. It's not as busy as the main road, and there's a nice big hill to walk up. ##### Kate M. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Harrison B. Sep 10, 2023 #### Incredible home, incredible hosts! The property is gorgeous. We particularly like the large open kitchen and multiple living rooms where our group can really spread out and always be comfortable. The hot tub addition made the outdoor areas even better! The hosts have always been responsive, they stock the house with all the necessities (and plenty of nice-to-haves), they respond quickly to any inquiries, and make things easy. This is our fourth year renting from Vermont Escapes. We’re already planning to return next summer. ##### Harrison B.

Nov 30, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Space for Retreat! We had a group of 15 for a retreat and "Friendsgiving" and had an amazing time! Our host Dave was very helpful and responsive with any issues that came up. The house is huge with plenty of room for multiple groups to spread out and we really enjoyed the Sauna and Hot Tub as well. The kitchen appliances were new and in great working order, and they provide plenty of cooking tools for any size meal. Dave generously provides all the materials for the smoker/grill and we had an amazing smoked turkey. There was plenty of wood for indoor and outdoor fires and the house got really cozy after a few hours of the wood stoves going. The location is also great with a nice shopping plaza 3 minutes down the road; they have a grocery store, pharmacy, an awesome record store, and a couple restaurants. We also appreciated all the signage in the home and pretty much everything has instructions or a sign. The workout room has bumping sound system and enough equipment for any workout as well, which is a fun extra. We really have no complaints about our stay, other than the bedrooms getting a little cold at night with the doors closed. Space heaters are provided in each room to supplement the heat, but the one in our room (the Chalet) was quite loud when it was turned on. Other than that, our stay was amazing and we hope to come back in the future. Thanks Dave for an amazing stay! ##### Candace T.

Nov 29, 2022 #### Amazing escape with spa like feels We loved the home as it was perfect for our family of 16 to cook, eat, play card games and watch movie marathons. The fire place and hot tub made for the perfect chill vibe setting and bottle of wine enjoyment. The beds were so comfortable and with all those bathrooms the privacy was superb. Highly recommend to unwind. We were only 18 min away from Manchester VT which made for great trips to sightsee and check out some stores. ##### Greta B.

Awesome space, great scenery, great firepit. The hot tub was a nice touch and the sauna. We enjoyed the WiFi and popcorn machine too! Plenty of bathrooms and spaces to sleep made it even easier. Thing to note, the doors don't lock from the inside. Overall, would recommend staying here for a great experience, David takes care of you well! ##### Araz A. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [DoubleTree by Hilton Burlington Vermont](https://www.expedia.ca/Burlington-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Burlington-Vermont.h2687.Hotel-Information) > > [Northern Lights Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Stowe-Hotels-Northern-Lights-Lodge.h797107.Hotel-Information) > > [Killington Grand Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Killington-Hotels-Killington-Grand-Hotel.h693673.Hotel-Information) > > [Field Guide Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Stowe-Hotels-Field-Guide-Lodge.h12479818.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Colchester](https://www.expedia.ca/Burlington-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Colchester.h24897.Hotel-Information) > > [Burke Mountain Hotel & Conference Center](https://www.expedia.ca/East-Burke-Hotels-Burke-Mountain-Hotel-Conference-Center.h15822448.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Inn & Suites South Burlington near University](https://www.expedia.ca/Burlington-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Suites.h890627.Hotel-Information) > > [The Essex Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Burlington-Hotels-The-Essex.h18494.Hotel-Information) > > [Killington Mountain Lodge, Tapestry Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Killington-Hotels-Killington-Mountain-Lodge.h103640.Hotel-Information) > > [WilloBurke Boutique Inn & Nordic Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/East-Burke-Hotels-WilloBurke-Boutique-Inn-Nordic-Spa.h12604442.Hotel-Information) > > [Windsor Mansion Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Windsor-Hotels-Windsor-Mansion-Inn.h6025234.Hotel-Information) > > [Topnotch Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Stowe-Hotels-Topnotch-Resort.h10591.Hotel-Information) > > [Innsbruck Inn at Stowe](https://www.expedia.ca/Stowe-Hotels-Innsbruck-Inn-At-Stowe.h797544.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Windjammer Inn & Conference Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Burlington-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Windjammer-Inn-Conference-Center.h7416621.Hotel-Information) > > [Homewood Suites by Hilton Burlington](https://www.expedia.ca/Burlington-Hotels-Homewood-Suites-By-Hilton-Burlington.h9474933.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Champlain Burlington, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Burlington-Hotels-Hilton-Burlington-Lake-Champlain.h19785.Hotel-Information) > > [Stoweflake Mountain Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Stowe-Hotels-Stoweflake-Mountain-Resort-Spa.h59157.Hotel-Information) > > [Woodstock Inn & Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Woodstock-Hotels-Woodstock-Inn-Resort.h25690.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stowe Village Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Stowe-Hotels-The-Stowe-Inn.h1092142.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Club Vacations Mount Ascutney Resort by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Brownsville-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Club-Vacations-Mount-Ascutney-Resort.h425171.Hotel-Information) > > [Tälta Lodge, A Bluebird by Lark](https://www.expedia.ca/Stowe-Hotels-Talta-Lodge.h69640561.Hotel-Information) > > [Quality Inn Shelburne - Burlington](https://www.expedia.ca/Burlington-Hotels-Quality-Inn-Shelburne-Burlington.h282.Hotel-Information) > > [Bluebird Cady Hill Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Stowe-Hotels-Golden-Eagle-Resort.h576658.Hotel-Information) > > [von Trapp Family Lodge & Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Stowe-Hotels-Trapp-Family-Lodge.h84462.Hotel-Information) > > [The Equinox Golf Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Bennington-Hotels-The-Equinox-Golf-Resort-Spa.h2759006.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lodge at Spruce Peak, a Destination by Hyatt Residence](https://www.expedia.ca/Stowe-Hotels-The-Lodge-At-Spruce-Peak.h1844843.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Burlington](https://www.expedia.ca/Burlington-Hotels-Delta-Hotels-By-Marriott-Burlington.h20199164.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express South Burlington Downtown by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/South-Burlington-Hotels-The-Inn-At-Burlington.h24600.Hotel-Information) > > [Green Mountain Suites Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Burlington-Hotels-Green-Mountain-Suites-Hotel.h117235.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express South Burlington by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Burlington-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-South-Burlington.h4567.Hotel-Information)
