Rental Payment Policy & Cancellation Policy Details

• If paying by credit card, 50% of total payment is immediately due upon booking. The remaining 50% is due 90 days prior to commencement. If less than 90 days until commencement of stay, the full amount is immediately due.

• If paying by check or cash for a discount, a $200 non-refundable fee (we will invoice you) is required to hold the dates. The $200 will be applied to the total amount due. If less than 90 days from commencement, payment needs to be paid within 5 days along with this signed Guest Occupancy Agreement.

• No substitutions or trade-in of dates. Dates are final and binding.

• No refunds for guest(s) if they end up not staying.

• Trip insurance- Check your credit card to see if you have trip cancellation/trip interruption insurance. As part of this Agreement, purchasing trip insurance is highly encouraged. Generally, there are 3 conditions that must be met to purchase a Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR) Rider as follows: 1) Purchase the policy within 10 - 21 days of First Trip Payment; 2) Insure ALL prepaid and non-refundable travel expenses prior to departure; 3) Trip arrangements must be canceled more than 48 hours prior to the departure date. If you meet all 3 of these conditions, most of the policies will reimburse you 75% of your trip costs, unless otherwise noted. Please read the fine print of your insurance policy carefully.

• Canceled bookings will receive a refund minus $200 cancellation + any credit card fees IF canceled 120 or more days from the commencement of the stay. If cancellation is between 119-31 days from commencement date AND the property can be re-rented for that same time and amount, a $500 cancellation fee plus cc fees apply. Cancellations less than 30 days will likely not receive a refund due to short notice. Upon notice of a desired cancellation, we will remove you from the calendar, and re-open the calendar in a goodwill effort to re-rent.

• Refunds at any time are only issued if we have a Vermont state mandatory evacuation or travel ban in our area.

• All rental agreements are final and binding.

In spite of alot of rain, our stay at Vermont Cottage was delightfull. The pictures did not do the cottage justice. We found everything to be extremely well thought out and just perfect. Alecia was extremely prompt in getting back to us with any questions. We had a crowd of ten people and the space was more than enough to accommodate us all. We found plenty to do in the surrounding area but mostly, just enjoyed our time hanging out at the cottage.

This place is a true gem, private, views that are incredible, comfort and whimsy in every corner. Beds and bedding top notch, 3 full bathrooms in downstairs unit that we rented, great fireplace and plenty of wood, sublime kitchen and all you need to cook anything from scratch. Bird feeders were filled and we loved watching the birds and squirrels on the sofa in the master bedroom. Fire pit was ready to light, with awesome red chairs around it. Cannot wait to go back again when there is no snow. My family skied and I walked, explored cute towns, cooked and relaxed. Alecia is so warm and responsive. Alecia let me check out the upstairs that was unoccupied, it is another amazing space with 2 bedrooms, views, amazing kitchen. This house would be great for a family reunion, it is deceiving, looks cozy and cute from the outside but is quite large inside.

This house perfect for a winter getaway. It was warm and cozy when we arrived. They had multi fresh towels in every room and the beds were so comfortable. It was in the perfect location for those that wanted to ski both Killington and Okemo, but was also on a scenic lake for those that wanted to stay at home. It’s also only about 30 minutes from Woodstock! The kitchen was stocked with all supplies we needed for coffee and cooking. The hosts also answered right away whenever I had any questions! I would definitely stay here again when visiting the area!

My family and I had such a wonderful stay at Alecia and John’s cottage. It fit five adults, two kids, an infant, and two dogs comfortably. The house was so clean and the property was beautiful. We did not want to leave. We certainly will return again and would love to check it out in the summer too!

A perfect stay for a family of 9! Everyone fit comfortably and cozy around the fire and dinner table. The amenities are unbelievable- we had more than we could ever imagine and it made cooking a breeze with an impeccably stocked pantry of spices and every cooking vessel imaginable. Alecia and John set the house up so well that everything we could ever want was easy and accessible. We had a great time playing volleyball, hanging on the dock, kayaking, sitting around the numerous fire pits on the property and enjoying the sunrise in the screened in porch. We had zero complaints and loved our stay so much that we want to make it a yearly trip!
