Sir Richards Waterbury Stowe Lake View Escape - ski - kayak - privacy

This host has everything covered! I don’t think anything is missing or forgotten down to the mortis and pestle and a cheese cutting board in the kitchen. The entire property is well stocked, not just the kitchen. The beds are comfortable as is the communal living space. The views from the patio are awesome, I would love to see it when the lake isn’t frozen! This property is centrally located to 4-5 ski resorts and the town of Waterbury has a lot to offer for restaurants and shops. Highly recommend for a quiet but very conveniently located retreat in Waterbury VT.

Very clean and very well stocked apartment on lower level of home. Nice to be able to snowshoe from the house to the abutting state park. Communication with the host was excellent. We enjoyed this beautiful and serene spot!

We stayed two nights as part of a larger US/Canada fall colors road trip. The location and accommodations were excellent - certainly one of the best. Our hostess was quite friendly and ensured our stay was comfortable and memorable. Thank you! We hiked up the nearby Stowe Pinnacle and also visited Montpelier. Overall a wonderful stay.

Do yourself a favor and just go! Amazing settling, great amenities (kayaking, canoeing, stationary bike, weights, games, etc). Great setting between Stowe and Waterbury. Just go!

This is a delightful getaway. There aren't many properties on this part of Waterbury Reservoir; this one is absolutely unique.It is a walk-out basement unit that has been meticulously finished to be bright, open, and comfortable. The lake view is wonderful and the property grounds are immaculate.The owners live upstairs. Barbara seems to manage the rental. And she takes it very, very seriously.Everything you could possibly want is provided. Seriously. That thing you think you have to bring because there won't be one? It's there. My spouse is a coffee aficionado and brought her own milk frother. Unnecessarily, it turns out!Everything you could possibly want to know is meticulously documented. Now, when you see that, it can raise a couple of concerns.First, is this person going to pop up every twenty minutes to micromanage our stay? Nope. Barbara welcomed us and texted us a couple of times during our week-long stay to make sure things were going well. She has a good sense of humor and was very easy to deal with.Second, is this going to be one of those where the stay is overshadowed by a list of weird rules and bizarre restrictions? Nope. There are a couple of sensible, reasonable things that responsible adults do anyway.This is the sort of place that I kind of want to tell you it's terrible so that it'll be available when we want to go back. Our little secret! But I cannot muster such evil. Besides, one look at the other reviews and no one would believe it.
