Summary: This house was so lovely for a ski weekend with friends and our families. The house is very well stocked with basic needs and coffee. I LOVED that everything was labeled to help us know what to do, what to not touch and how to work things! Such a unique historic house to stay in that we pass all the time when heading to ski! Great location for an easy 20 minute to Okemo and convenient store across the street! Our families really loved being able to spend time together in this house.
