Great Experience with the owner and the property
Submitted: June 27, 2009
Stayed: June 2009
Rented this home the 1st weekend of June 2009. Working with the owner was very easy, as he was quick to respond and very professional. (Due to my career, 90% of the communication was done via e-mail). The house was in excellent condition when we arrived. It was very clean, well organized and had everything you would need (towels, Toilet Paper, kitchen appliances, Stereos, firewood, etc.) The location was just as the owner had described - my group was looking for a large home, where we could spent evenings in the backyard without disturbing the neighbors.I've rented homes in Killington Vt for the last few years, but this was one of the best. Very satisfied customer.

Great place

House has great character. Plenty of room for my large extended family of all age ranges. Fully equipped kitchen, we cooked and fed our large army every night. Plenty of fire wood and wood stove kept the place toasty warm despite 0 degree temps outside. Hot tub was a big hit. Would stay again.

My friends and I had a great experience at Vincent's house. Great mountain feel to the house, secluded property, big hang out spaces for a large group and beds everywhere for sleeping arrangements.
Really enjoyed my stay and would come back!
Thanks!

Owner is Very Honorable and Gracious
Submitted: September 27, 2011
Stayed: September 2011
I had rented the house for a weekend golf outing for friends coming from Boston, New York City, Northern Vermont and Syracuse, NY. Hurricane Irene had other plans and washed out the roads which prohibited access to the house. The owner and I remained in contact leading up to our weekend, weighing the options available to us. We could have accessed the house through some creative shuttles and hiking, but the owner was gracious and provided and complete refund. I want to thank him for his understanding and will keep the house in mind for future visits and will not hesitate to recommend the property to friends and family.

Ski Trip
Submitted: February 8, 2011
Stayed: January 2011
I rented this house for a family/friends get together for a skiing trip and it was great. We had 23 adults and it was certainly big enough for all of us, and had no problem with sleeping arrangements. The house is in a good location, close to the mountains and bars/restaurants. We enjoyed using the indoor fireplace and firepit in the backyard, especially since the shed is full of firewood to burn. Also, the jacuzzi was a nice size for us to come back to and relax in after skiing. I would recommend this house to anyone looking to bring a big group up for a week or weekend get away. Everyone in our group loved it and will look to return in the future.

Very misleading - not as advertised
Submitted: January 10, 2011
Stayed: January 2011
We rented this house for a long ski weekend and we were very disappointed. It DOES NOT have 6 bedrooms, it has 3. It will sleep 24 people if 18 of them are between the ages or 7 yrs old and 10 yrs old.
Just to be clear, my friends and I have been doing this for the last 15 or 16 years. This is not our first rodeo. We know people tend to stretch the truth when it comes to sleeping accommodations but this had all of us really ticked. We were lucky that a number of folks brought inflatable matresses.
Beyond the misleading bed space the house was ok and I mean just ok. It is not the worst place we have ever rented, but it is definitely in the bottom 25%.
If you have a group of 12 - 14 it will probably work, if the group is larger I would not recommend this place.

Owner's Response: Greetings Homeaway travelers!
My name is Vincent Connolly; I’m the owner of this property and wanted to spend the time to include the email I sent to the customer after this review was posted. Please take the time to review the details because there are always multiple sides to every story.
Thanks for your time!
Hello Joseph,
I hope all is well and I'm glad we had a chance to discuss in detail the miscommunication that occurred during your stay at my house.
I was disappointed to see the Review that your group posted about the experience at the Rental Property- especially since it was used initially as leverage to receive a discount off the weekends rental. I thought you and I had a great discussion as we walked through every step in Rental Process which included the initial email (below) that clearly outlines the Sleeping Configuration in the house. I also attached pictures of the bedrooms and included a Floor Plan that shows approximate sq ftge of the home with the bedroom layout- bed type. As I mentioned this is the first time in 6 years that I had a group have a poor experience due to confusion on the bed type and sleeping configuration.
All of the homes that are advertised through vrbo or Homeaway (cyberrentals) list the max sleeping capacity which is my case is 24. That doesn't mean that I have 24 separate beds- it means that many of the beds sleep 2 people in a full, queen or king size bed. I'm sorry that this point confusing- which is the reason I lay out the details by bedroom, with pictures and with a floor plan. Please let me know how I can be more clear so this doesn't happen with another rental group in the future?
At the end of our conversation I asked you "what would you do if you were in my shoes" and you said that the email and attachments were very clear and your group simply missed the details.
Joseph- I'm a very honest man that runs a good side business. I pride myself on thorough communication and a satisfied customer experience as I recognize the importance of these family/group retreats. The reviews that are posted paint a very satisfied experience with the exception of your own. I felt obligated to help rectify the situation so I offered my time to speak to every person in the group and walk them through the communication to make them better understand the situation. I also offered my home for a reduced discount for a future rental. I thought this was a great gesture- what else could I have

We had a huge party (24) for a 4 day ski trip, and this house was pretty much perfect for our stay. Vincent was great to communicate with, and the house is exactly as described. There were plenty of beds, space, and entertainment (poker, darts, Foosball) to accommodate our group. The hot tub was a great way to recover everyday after hitting the slopes.
Location wise, the house was conveniently located about 10-15 min away from Killington Resort, as well as many restaurants and pubs. It was pretty much all we could ask for and we look forward to staying here again next winter!

Great Killington Vacation
Submitted: December 12, 2010
Stayed: August 2010
This House is beautifully decorated and has a charming feel to it. Visited in the summer and managed to have a great experience. The house is extremely well accommodated and provides everything you'd expect in your own home. Spectacular views of the mountain and makes one feel like they really should get outdoors more and chop wood like rocky. Hot tub provides a great relaxing wind down after a long day of hiking on Mt. Killington. Minutes from the downtown area of Killington and cannot wait to go back and this place is a great get away from the congestion of Manhattan.

This house was a perfect fit for our large group. The accommodations, location, and overall welcoming feel of the home were unlike anything I have experienced in home rental, both domestically and abroad. I am quite certain that heaven is located at this house.
