My husband and I decided that we just wanted to go on a vacation where we could disconnect and do some writing every day. So we picked Vermont and to stay on this farm, and it was a nice vibe! We enjoyed watching the chickens and goats. The house itself felt pretty spacious. It was hot (went early July), but we mostly wrote in the morning, and decided to leave the house most afternoons to go to nearby Bennington or other small-town attractions, so we avoided the worst of the humidity and heat most days (there's only one window unit air conditioner in the downstairs bedroom). We had trouble with the washer, but it wasn't a big deal, and Susan helped us resolve the issue during our stay. Enjoyed falling asleep to the sounds of the small waterfall feeding the pond in the backyard at night. Overall, it's good if you want an escape from any hustle and bustle.
