Mad Men in Manchester

5 of 5
Submitted: March 5, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
We stayed in Inn Keepers / Hand House with 2 families -- 4 toddlers total. The house worked out great and the 70s House and Garden vibe definitely grew on everyone. The view from the sheltered deck was amazing and the art exhibit house next door was an unexpected bonus. If you like the show Mad Men then you will like this house.

HAND HOUSE - EXCELLENT FOR A FAMILY VACATION

5 of 5
Submitted: August 22, 2010 Stayed: July 2009
With three infants, 3 - 6 months we had to find a family vacation rental for 6 adults, 3 infants and occasional overnight visitors. The Hand House perfectly fit our needs.

The open floor plan of the interior of the home extends seemlessly with outdoor deck space with a magnificent panoramic mountain view. A view which all the bedrooms share.

The bonus of this home is the interesting art work, paintings and sculpturs, placed around the interior which is enhanced by the numerous sculpturs located throughout the grounds of the Inn.

Albert and his wife Georgette could not have more accomodating in providing my family with the special needs of three infants such as Pack and Plays and cribs. Albert even accommodated my son's request for a marshmallow roast and expanded it into an event for all the families staying at the Inn and the other homes.......What a great evening! On another occasion he even provided us with a guided tour and discussion of his prized artwork.

The location of the home with its proximity to the shops, museums and restaurants in Manchester Center and the outdoor activities available in the mountains offers something for all ages interests.

A wonderful and memorable vacation, which we plan to repeat.

Owner's Response: I enjoyed the initiative of having a bond fire and smores party and opening this event to the other quests of the inn. It was a fine fire and a happy social event.

Great for any occasion

5 of 5
Submitted: July 21, 2010 Stayed: July 2010
Myself and my fellow groomsmen stayed at the Inn Keeper's house for a weekend for our friend's wedding. It was perfect for us. Very spacious rooms and a TREMENDOUS view from the deck looking out into the mountains. The bedrooms were good size and the beds were comfortable. It was only a mile or so away from our reception and it was perfect. I think the Hand House (as it's called at the Inn) could be perfect place for our group of people or any other group of people looking for an affordable, beautiful, and spacious place to stay. If we're ever back in the area I know all of us who stay would look here first.
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Girls Getaway, Sightseeing, Families with Young Children, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: The house was built in the 70s on the crest of a hill. It has a big central cathedral space with large windows on three sides of its main floor. So it enjoys commanding views of the estate on two sides and of the valley and the mountains beyond the deck on the third side.
This is the house I as the inn keeper go to relax and work on my computer in complete privacy.

We spent a great last weekend in February at the Hand house.A lot of art inside and outside, big windows,comfortable beds, perfect linens and towels.It was really nice sit next to the fireplace after all day of skiing and just relax.Close to Manchester outlets and only 30 min from Stratton Mt.
Will be back!

Owner's Response: Thanks Yelena and Lenny.

Your comments are welcome increasing awareness of the identity of the house, views, spaciousness and art. This house has these three extraordinary features.

The awesome views from inside the building and from the deck.

It is not a huge place but it feels huge because the interior spaces a cathedral style building are integrated as a continuum. The interior gives you a Hayat spaciousness.

The other feature of this house is the art, a series of sculptures in the building illustrating the concept of the creative process, and a set of sculptures on the grounds of the Wilburton Inn adding a spiritual dimension to the VT landscape.

I look forward to your return visit inOctober.
