About this property

Spacious, Comfortable & Close!!!



I book solid from Thanksgiving - April 1, book early for the best selection! Minimum age of guests is 21 unless accompanied by their parents. Weekly & monthly discounts are only valid April - Nov.

A comfortable, updated and spacious 2nd home. Located INSIDE THE ACCESS ROAD and under 1/2 of a mile from the front door of the Main Base Lodge of Mount Snow, be on the slopes in minutes! It will take you longer to load everyone in the car than it will to drive down the hill and around the corner! This seven bedroom house is perfect for a relaxing weekend with friends or a week-long family reunion.

This seven bedroom house comfortably sleeps groups up to 20 in beds. All beds, no pullouts or futons. (9-15 for a guys golf trip type of event depending on whether you use the loft and top bunks) Bring everyone on your vacation together in the spacious great room, which includes a fully-equipped kitchen, dining area, and living area under an 18-foot cathedral ceiling or relax in one of the house's other spacious living areas. Choose from the den, living room, second living room or elevated deck overlooking the backyard. Make use of the fire pit that offer ample seating for your group or hop in the 8 person hot tub.

In the main living room there is a 75 Inch smart TV with 72+ channels where you can use your Netflix, Hulu or Amazon. Downstairs is a 50 inch TV with cable and app access as well. There is air hockey, foosball, arcade machines and wood-burning fireplace. The outdoor deck with table, chairs, seating area and a gas grill is available spring, summer and fall.

Each arriving guest starts off with paper towels, bath tissue, hand soaps at every sink, dish soap, trash bags and dish tabs, usually enough for a long weekend.

The kitchen is well stocked with anything you might need. No bare bones kitchen in this house like you might find in your typical rental! Among other items, the kitchen has two regular 14 cup coffee makers and a Kurig to make that morning cup of Joe a snap. Plenty of pots and pans to help cook for your large group, kitchen gadgets, pancake griddle, crock pot (to make your favorite chili on a cold winter day!) dishwasher and plenty of plates, bowls, glasses and mugs to go around! A second refrigerator & stove on the lower level come in handy when trying to feed your large group!

If going out is more your speed, there are bars and restaurants in the area. There are several grocery stores in the area as well.

Great spacious home well located

Wonderful home and responsive host. Enough king beds for 5 couples and plenty of space for kids to sleep and play. The house is well located, just 3 mins from mount snow and well equipped with all kitchen necessities and a great hot tub.

Awesome Ski House!

We were a group of 4 families staying for a long ski weekend. The house was great, just as pictured and had a ton of space. We loved the big open kitchen/dining/living room space, lots of room to hang out and watch the Superbowl. Very close to Mt Snow (2 in drive) which was great for skiing. We had a decent snowstorm while there and were plowed out very quickly. The host was very responsive and easy to work with - we will definitely be back!

Mt Snow ski trip

This house was everything that we needed and more for our stay with our group of parents and kids. Easy access to the mountain for skiing and plenty of space after to relax and unwind. The hot tub was great and the kids loved the video games and having their own space.

Wonderful Christmas family vacation

From the moment we stepped in the front door we knew this was going to be a fabulous family vacation. The host, Ed, had the house beautifully decorated for Christmas and everything we could think of was already provided for. We loved it so much my daughter started looking into renting for next year but this house has already been taken. You’re going to love it, whoever you are. The host was so easy to work with too. He responded to any questions we had very quickly. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home, Ed!!

Family Reunion Spot

We slept 20 people in comfortable beds. Every bedroom was located for maximum privacy. Many of us enjoyed the hot tub, and we played lawn games on the large lawn. The arcade room was also a big hit. One night we seated 34 people for dinner, thanks to the additional seating on the porch and the folding table and chairs we found in a closet. We would definitely recommend this house for a group wanting to stay in the lovely Dover/Wilmington area.

Incredible Stay for Larger Parties

Had an amazing time at this property! The owners were fantastic at communicating with our group and answering questions. Plenty of bedrooms, with plenty to do. We almost never left the house the whole weekend! One caveat to keep in mind, it is not as private as expected: shared driveway with some neighbors nearby. Never a problem for us, but for those seeking to maximize privacy be aware! Would love to stay again soon, had a phenomenal time!

Wonderful Vacation Stay

Wonderful large house that our entire family enjoyed. There was plenty of room that we never felt cramped. Everyone had a great time in the hottub, playing the video games, board games, and the outdoor space was large enough for multiple outdoor games. All ages also loved the firepit with multiple nights of making smores and sitting around talking. Check in was really easy, as well as checking out. Thank you!

Great layout!

We have a group of 18 - 4 families with 10 kids ranging from 5-13. This house was perfect for that size group. Kids shared rooms with plenty of extra beds/bedrooms when a kid or two needed their own space. Game room is awesome, as is the hot tub! Everything was clean, easy to access, and the kitchen was great for large groups. Nice fire pit with plenty of chairs. This was a summer trip for us, please note there is no AC. There were a couple bedrooms with AC units in the closet but not installed. It’s warm and muggy in the upstairs. Plenty of fans to help stay cool. The downstairs was a solid 10-15 degrees cooler which feels great on a hot day. We do this trip every year and were very pleased with this rental!

Memorial Day Memories

Looking for a house for your family to gather? This rental in Dover Vt is THE place to go. Our family had a wonderful time Memorial Weekend. We were a large group of Grandparents, young adults and grandchildren (ages 10-18). We enjoyed the large yard ( corn hole and badminton) the fire pit and the hot tub. Ed’s home has a great lay out on two floors with plenty of bedrooms and baths. There was Mt Biking, long hilly hikes and swims at Lake Raponda plus Wilmington offers some quaint shopping, cafes and Ice Cream! Ed was an excellent host and we are grateful to have found his rental.

Why they chose this property

My extended family of friends and I are all very close. Some of us have been friends since grade school, some from middle school, and the rest from high school. After everyone went away to college most of us returned home and picked up right where our friendships left off. Every winter since high school we have always done our annual “friends ski trip”.
In 2008 we began staying at this house and fell in love the moment we walked in. Every year we always talked about how great it would be to own a ski house of our own (or this one) where we could always go as a group and spend quality time together. After staying at houses and condos all over Vermont, mainly at Mt Snow, Stratton and Okemo, this house was our favorite.
Early 2011 saw the tragic loss of one of our best friends who was killed by a drunk driver. Our friend Dave was vibrant, smart, funny, was always bringing people together, was always smiling and loved to snowboard among other things. Dave was part of our group from the very beginning and a fixture on any ski & board trip.
One of Dave’s newest ventures that he was very excited about was to purchase a rental property with his soon to be fiancé just outside of Boston and as he told us, “begin to create his empire” At the time of Dave’s passing he had an accepted offer and was waiting to close.
In the spirit of Dave and his “empire” I decided “why not buy the house we always talked about and secure a place for me and my friends to come to year after year…. A place we all loved, and a place we have all shared so many great memories!” Calls were made, deals were struck and as they say, the rest was history!

What makes this property unique

Large open spaces, close to the slopes and plenty of room for everyone to be together! 7+ bedrooms for plenty of privacy.
