We didn't want to get out of the hot tub!

TimB New York City
Review Submitted: February 27, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
This was our third stay at Tranquility Base II. Much like myself, and a fine Romanee-Conti, the house seems to get better with age. We didn't come here for the last 3 years, and what fantastic changes to an already transcendent property. New kitchen appliances, a new whirlpool, and a brand new audio visual system complete the picture of paradise that is, Tranquility Base II. Right on the mountain, yet somehow still private thanks to various species of mature conifers. We found it difficult to leave the hot tub, watching the snowfall over the serene Vermont landscape. When we were done, the fireplace was ideal for warming our toes before a night of untold delights! We won't wait so long for a return visit!
Owner's Response: Thanks for your kind review Tim. We are happy you had a relaxing and fun vacation on the mountain at Tranquility Base II. We want for our guests what we want for ourselves: to have a resort experience both on and off the slopes! Non-skiers and boarders might just have as much fun as the shushers and shredders in your group. Despite being away from it all, you can now stay wirelessly connected and entertained in a high definition kind of way. We look forward to welcoming you back again in the future.

Chill, Chill, Chill.....

Sara & Tony Boston, MA, US
Review Submitted: April 8, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
Wow... The location is amazing. It has a real 'away from it all' feel but is minutes from Killington bases. There's something cool about being above the base area! Great views, the house is well maintained and has a layout that's good for all. Hot tub, pool table; add good company and you can't ask for much more. I'm a big fan of real log fires but must say the pellet stove is simply incredible!

I'd suggest 4WD, especially if there is snow on the roads.

Fantastic time had by all. Rick and Jan, it was a pleasure and we look forward to being up there again sometime.

Tony and Sara. MA
Owner's Response: Thanks so much for your kind review. There is nothing more important to us than for our guests to have a great escape from it all! The view is amazing and the reason we adopted a name reflective of yet another moon base. We hope that you'll stay with us again someday soon.

the walls can talk

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Long Island
Review Submitted: April 1, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
Can hear everything between rooms, if I sneezed they blessed me from the floor below
needs another bath if more than 2 couples,
but warm and cozy,
too many utensils in the kitchen.........
sheets dont fit beds
was clean
there is no cell phone service in area so be prepared to use land line with charging calls, no wi-fi
Owner's Response: We pride ourselves in having a beautiful open floor plan 4 level post and beam home.

The walls actually do not talk. None of the bedrooms are adjacent to each other other. The 2 bedrooms on level 3 are separated by a very large Jack and Jill master bath room which allows for the sink/grooming area to be separated from the tub/shower/toilet area. There is another large master bath on level 2 with a sunken whirlpool tub and separate shower. If 3 couples required 3 bathrooms you could have picked another property as our listing is quite clear. However, our family manages fine even when we are all there together with much larger groups than yours.

The nature of post and beam construction is such that the floors and ceilings between levels are "open" and devoid of the air space/sheet rock ceilings that exist in stick built homes. The downside to this is less noise deadening between floors. However, normal conversation and activity noises cannot be heard between floors. The upside is the natural beauty of the living space which is as spectacular as the view to the mountains from our windows. In addition, the 4 levels and 2 lofts make it very easy for anyone to 'escape' for any needed private sanctuary/refuge.

We utilize a reliable and standard linen service and we have standard size mattresses, so we don't understand your linen sizing concerns. In 15 years, we have never heard this complaint.

We are very clear in our welcoming packet that long distance calling requires a calling card which is true for most rental properties. Cell phone service can be spotty in the mountains as you know. There are times that our AT&T service actually does work well.

Finally, we are disappointed that the generous selection of kitchen utensils and state of the art resources was a problem for you. We stock the kitchen as we would want for ourselves and added guests. Again, this is another first in 15 years.

We anticipate adding high speed internet service next season. For now, dial up internet service is available through your own ISP.

While we are happy that you chose to stay with us, it sounds like you did not match your needs to the rental property description as well as you could. In addition, we are always happy to discuss our property and its amenities in detail with any prospective guests to be sure they have nothing but good times at Tranquility Base II.

Good Times at Tranquility Base II

Todd Z Southington, CT USA
Review Submitted: March 18, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
Our Group had an amazing time at this property! The amenities were great! The property is very well maintained. We especially loved the new Hot Tub, as well as the Pool Table and great cookware. Though it was only a long weekend, we had lots o fun and we look forward to renting this property in the future!
Owner's Response: We are so glad you had a happy and memorable stay in our special mountain retreat. We experienced many a happy memory sharing ski holidays with our children and our friends in rented ski homes. It was with those warm memories that we crafted a ski home meant for special gatherings and fond memories. We took the best concepts and designs from our past experiences and blended them all together to create our own special retreat that we think works just right - great open spaces, cozy little getaways, fun places to play, and relaxing and tranquil experiences all rolled into one perched on a special place as if on top of the world - go ahead, try and touch the moon.

Beautiful, large home, great hot tub

snowbunny28 Charlottesville, VA
Review Submitted: January 10, 2008 Date of Stay: December 2007
We stayed here over New year's of 2007. We absolutely loved it - the home is laid out well, and has more than enough space for 8 people (8 people was the max we were given, but honestly once we got there it felt like you could have had 16-20 comfortably) The amenities were wonderful, the hot tub was great, and the property was as described and very well maintained.

The only thing I would say is that you should really have snow tires or a 4 wheel drive to make sure you can get up in the snow. We ended up having to leave one of our cars at the base lodge after a snowfall because it couldn't get up the hill to the house.
Owner's Response: Thanks for the kind review. We are happy you had a great New Year and look forward to having you visit again some day. As we are among the highest residential properties on Killington, the last 1/2 mile up, while exhilarating, can be a bit of a challenge at the early stage of a snowfall, before the town plows clear the way. While our experience over the past 14+ years has resulted in difficult passage only once with front wheel drive, all wheel drive capacity or snow tires will give you some peace of mind. Rest assured, the ride up is well worth it and your efforts will be rewarded with spectacular views and a warm and comfy mountain retreat.
