About Francine or Eric

We are Eric and Francine Chittenden, and we each grew up in Vermont. Eric is an ancestor of Vermont's 1st Governor, Thomas Chittenden. Francine was born in Quebec, and thus her 1st language is French. We both grew up on dairy farms. We got married in 1973, and founded the Cold Hollow Cider Mill in 1974, which rapidly evolved into one of Vermont's premier 'must-see' attractions. In 1980 we created Governor Tom's restaurant, an immensely popular eatery for 8 years. We sold the cider mill in 2000 to Paul & Gail Brown so that we could fulfill our growing 'bucket lists.' The mill continues to be very successful.

Currently Eric holds a license to sail as Captain on the largest ships in the world, and works primarily on the Hawaiian run as a deck officer. Francine is Director of Human Resources for the Vermont Foodbank.

Francine or Eric purchased this estate in 2000

BEST WEEKEND EVER

5 of 5
Submitted: February 27, 2012 Stayed: February 2012
There are a gang of us that go skiing every year together. This was our first year at Stowe, and could not have asked for a better place to stay. First, Eric and Francine are the most amazing hosts I have ever dealt with. They make you feel so welcome and offer every ammenity, and encourage you to have as much fun as you possibly can. The house was amazing; bedrooms were all private, clean, and comfy. Hot tub, pool table, large kitchen, and amazing sledding hill were all put to great use. If you ever find yourself in need of a place to stay in Stowe, do not hesitate to grab this place up!!!

Fantastic Holidays in Vermont

5 of 5
Submitted: January 9, 2012 Stayed: December 2011
Since the first email I sent to them, Francine and Eric had been nothing but amicable and welcoming to their home in Waterbury. I was planning a family get together/ski trip for Christmas and it was a great experience. Everything was taken care of and they even went out of their way to lend my 2yr old nephew a pair of skis and boots so we wouldn't have to rent it for him.

The property itself was beautiful, well-kept and with more than ample room for the 6 of us and close to all the attractions of Waterbury and just 20min or so away from Stowe skiing. My only complaint would be that I didn't have enough days there. Next time I'm in the area, I'll be sure to look them up again!

Thanks Eric and Francine!

We had a wonderful time at this wonderful house. The house is very comfortable and has everything one could ask, from wi-fi, to a sauna, hot tub and even sleds and snow shoes. It was a great time on a beautiful property. The owners, Eric and Francine, are extremely kind and helpful. They were constantly available to provide us with any help we needed. They also know the are really well which is a plus as they tell you what the best places to go are. Whether it's for skiing, relaxing or hiking this is the best place to stay in Stowe!

Weekend Ski Getaway

5 of 5
Submitted: February 17, 2011 Stayed: February 2011
I stayed at the house with a group of great friends and we had a wonderful time. Besides a great location outside of Stowe and Waterbury Center, you have spectacular views of Camel's Hump!

The owners, Eric and Francine, answered my questions (several times) concerning the sleeping accomodations and what items we didn't have to bring. Eric and Francine were very accomodating and so friendly to help us with anything we needed. They really made us feel welcome in their beautiful home!

We enjoyed moonlight sledding and the hot tub after long days of skiing at Stowe and Smuggler's Notch. This house has everything you would need to keep a large group of friends or family entertained. The kitchen was large enough to cook some great meals and plenty of space for people to relax.

Thanks again for an amazing weekend!!
