VERMONT'S 1828 REUNION HOUSE - FARMHOUSE

Dear Potential Renters - comments below were receivied via e-mail by the owners and are posted by the owners not directly through this web page.

Matthew,

A good time was had by all. Overall, everyone enjoyed their 1828 experience. The greatest downside was that my wife left some clothing in the downstairs bedroom closet. So, upon returning home I had to jump back in my car and drive back to Chester (about 2 hours one way)! Ugh.

The good side of the return trip was that I was able to meet the next renters. Nice people!

Again, we enjoyed out stay and hope to visit in the near future. Take care. If you have further questions, please feel free to contact me.

Matthew,

Sorry it has taken me so long to reply about our stay. I still have lingering house guests so there has been little time. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Reunion House and, believe me we used every inch of it. I hope you found it in satisfactory shape. My sister has mailed back the key so I will expect my $250 security deposit to be returned now.

The river was a real plus, especially when it got so hot and the kids loved the little play house.

Good luck to you in future rentals.

Hi Matthew,

I just wanted to let you know that we had a fabulous time this weekend. In fact, we would like to make reservations for next year. We are interested in October 8th, 9th, and 10th. Can you please let me know if that weekend is available? Thanks so much.
Best Regards,

Hi Matt,

Just got back from the house this morning - it was a great week. The whole family had a very good time - even managed to take home some pastries and $7 from the bingo hall - though we may have accidentally started a rumor that the basement of the house is among the top 10 haunted places in Vermont!

Thanks again - we had a great time.

Matthew,

For the past 30 years our three families have vacationed together. Over the years as our families have grown, our gatherings have also grown to include the addition of family friends and various significant others.

With a growing clan that now totals 18, the1828 Reunion House has become the perfect answer to our needs. What a joy to find a place that can appeal to our love of history while offering a wide array of up to date amenities. You couldn't ask for a better location. The nearby town of Ludlow is only 5 minutes away and offers shopping and great restaurants. The Reunion House is also perfectly situated near Okemo Mountain for skiing and snowboarding fun. Outlet shopping can be found in nearby Manchester, and the state of Vermont has always been our favorite place to visit.

Dear Prospective Renter, the owners added the following comments based on e-mails received from previous renters - Matthew Hello,We would like to thank you very very much for renting us the house for the weekend. We had such a great time and found the house to be perfect for our pre-Thanksgiving feast. We would like to rent the house again next year. Is the weekend of Columbus Day open (Oct. 6, 7, and 8)?Thanks again,Kim and BrettJust emailing you guys to let you know that your house was perfect! Everything was excellent and I'm trying to get a group together to rent it for some skiing next winter. Very well set up for big groups and the land was beautiful. Only thing I wish was different was the weather but we still had a great time, played waffle ball in the rain and really enjoyed the outdoors. And that stove…man I want a stove like that in my house, we cooked 6 lb’s of pasta and sauce at once and for breakfast made 36 scrambled eggs at once. Perfect!! Thank you guys so much and I hope you will let us rent from you again! I'm going to try and send the key out tomorrow. Just letting you know, we made some distance calls from the phone because nobody had any cell phone reception but we got a calling card later on so make sure you check the phone bill and deduct that from the deposit. Other than that everything is in perfect order. Again, thank you very much.W. SaccoHi Matthew-We had a wonderful weekend at the house- It was just perfect for my family. The kids- big and small, sledded on the hill. We snowshoed and x-country skied around the property. Two families went to Pico for a day of reduced price skiing[ they had coupons!] All were in agreement that we should do it again next year. I will contact you when that is set in stone! Thanks,Pat Chris, I'm finally back from my vacation and wanted to thank you and your brother for renting the house to us. we had a wonderful time the house has great charm and I'm happy to report,... no spooky spirits! The house was spacious and my family was very happy with the accommodations. I believe we left everything to your liking? I will mail you the key this week. I was so pleased I told a friend of mine about the place as she is looking for something similar. I told her to use my name as a reference ,... not that I think it makes a difference but it helps to know a little about the people you rent to. They are good people. My fami
