The Marathon Monks of Mount Hiei
by John StevensThe greatest athletes in the world today are not the Olympic champions or the stars of professional sports, but the "marathon monks" of Japan's sacred Mount Hiei. Over a seven-year training period, these "running buddhas" figuratively circle the globe on foot. During one incredible 100-day stretch, they cover 52.5 miles daily—twice the
Editorial Reviews
Library Journal
Japan's Mount Hiei is home to the monastery of the "Running Buddhas'' or "marathon monks'' who pursue enlightenment via 1000-day marathons that must each be completed in a seven-year training period. Stevens, a professor of Buddhist studies, offers a dense discussion of the origin and spiritual principles of Tendai Buddhism, out of which the runners' vision was born; a look at the marathon itself; and introductions to several monks whose portraits add human interest. Something of a novelty item, with value for students of comparative religion. EC

Marathon Monks of Mount Hiei is the awe-inspiring story of the trials and triumphs of the Running Buddhas of Tendai Buddhism. The severe conditions under which these monks trained cannot but lead the reader to see life in an entirely new perspective and question superficial self-imposed limitations. The story of these monks—running distances surpassing a marathon daily in handmade straw sandals—attest to the power inherent in the unification of mind, spirit, and body. These marathon monks stretch endurance to its limits to achieve enlightenment—the highest state of human existence. Ultimately, this book emphasizes that great potential exists even in the most tremendous undertakings. A delightful and powerful read unlike any other spiritual athletic account.
I've included the Table of Contents for your convenience:
Part One: The World of Tendai Buddhism
The Treasure of a Nation: Saicho, Founder of Japanese Tendai
The Magic Mountain: The History of Hiei
Study and Practice: The Way of Tendai Buddhism
Mount Hiei Today
Part Two: The Marathon Monks
Mountain Pilgrimage: So-o and tge History of the Hiei Marathon
The Path of the Spiritual Athelete
Running Buddhas: The Men Themselves
Treasure of a nation
I found this book completely engrossing. John Stevens does a great job at describing the secrets of the "running buddhas" through their pursuit of the 1,000-day mountain marathod on Hiei. I see here that some people complain of the photo quality or design, but from my perspective, this is no issue. The photo documentation of the Doiri (nine-day fast) shows most beautifully how Utsumi transformed physically and even mentally by the radiance found in his eyes. It's actually quite the miracle that the book even exists, for I heard that the author lost its original files in a move. All in all, I am so inspired!

Man, if ever there is a time I miss living in Ottawa (the capitol city of our great Dominion, for those of you who don't know), today is the day. The day usually begins with a Canada Day Brunch at my friend M.B.'s house, and then take a walk around Ottawa. I usually go with a bunch of friends to watch the fireworks on The Hill at around 9:00 (again, that's Parliament Hill), and I've even stuck around for the massive concert afterwards. It's just a good time.
But today I am in Korea. The Canadian Embassy threw their party last weekend, and from what I understand, pretty much no one went, cause, well... it was a week early! I guess they wanted the day off as much as anyone else. I know my coworkers (who are all Canadian -- at least the ones that count are, anyway) are all going out tonight, but I am not among them. I would either end up out with "Lick My Boob" girl (which is unappealing for obvious reasons), or end up among the sea of couples that are going out with S. and D. Neither option is really sounding great to me. So I will stay here, wishing I was home, and probably playing around with some video I took of my kids yesterday.
I actually do have some blog relevant thoughts to share, but I'm not in the mood to write anything serious. I want to be drinking mimosas and eating breakfast quiche at M.B.'s house. For today, I am quite homesick.

I totally feel you... Sometimes you just need to be home. Strangely enough though, I find that the home I miss has nothing to do with where I was born. No, when the Muslim holidays(which technically I shouldn't celebrate as a Christian, but the food is good and the company better) roll around I'll be homesick for the Middle East.
Which I hope answers your question on my blog... I am(or was) your reader fromt he Middle East.
Happy late Canada Day! - 7/01/2006 02:46:00 PM

Mark and I did go away for Mother's Day last weekend. We went to the Brasstown Valley Resort in Young Harris, GA for brunch and then stayed there on Sunday night. What a nice place, all nestled in the mountains. We also went to the top of Brasstown Bald, which, (depending on who you talk to) is the highest mountain in Georgia. Then a little visit to the Crane Creek Vineyard was in order. All in all, a pleasant little trip.
Even though I haven't devoted much time to stitching, I still accomplished a little. Or maybe a lot, because it's a finish!
Let's celebrate! "Red, White and Bloom" is finished! Now, to frame it or make it into a little pillow? What do you think?
The funny thing is that I only have one project going now. Time for a new start or two, right?
It's the end of the school year and many parents are contemplating what to get for their kids' teachers. Sheila used her powers of craftiness to create these beautiful necklaces.
Wow, what teacher wouldn't be delighted to receive one of these?
So that's it for now. Coming up in future blog posts, and staying with the Nancy Drew theme: The Craft Room Caper and The Case Of The Sneaky Stitch Starter. OK, those probably won't be the titles of my posts, but they give you the idea of what's to come here at CraftyCat.

Due to the fragility of shipping vinyl and problems associated with it, we would like to address shipping questions that have come up.
All domestic orders are sent via USPS First Class mail and should be received within 1 – 5 business days to most places in the continental United States. On top of the shipping cost, there are also costs associated with the picking, packaging and shipping of these items. All 7" orders are placed in a bubble pouch for protection and then shipped in a cardboard box to limit potential damage that may arise during the shipping process.
USPS is faster and much more cost effective than shipping these out via UPS or FedEx Ground.
People are inclined to compare all shipping rates to huge companies who are doing bulk business and receive massive discounts. We are an independent company working with an independent fulfillment center, not a massive corporation or fulfillment center that is focused on volume rather than quality and making sure your products arrive in a timely manner and in good condition.
Thanks for choosing PaxAm/Firebrand.
Stay weird.
Please allow an additional 72 business hours to the stated shipping time. The majority of our orders ship via the United States Postal Service and may encounter a number of delays while in the postal stream.
All domestic orders will be shipped Priority mail through the United States Postal Service. Packages sent via Priority mail require an average of 2 to 4 days to arrive anywhere in the continental United States. Priority mail delivers to every address in the United States, including PO boxes and military addresses. All packages will be shipped from Oceanside, California. All international orders have an estimated delivery time of between 1-6 weeks, but that is not guaranteed. The customs process and associated time frame is out of our control. If you do not receive your package within the above mentioned time, please be sure and check with your local sorting office to ensure they're not holding the package, or that it's not being held in customs.

Gwen Stefani has the whole package—a phenomenal fashion and music career, a gorgeous family and a classically beautiful face that can pull off any look. Whether stepping out to get groceries or performing live in stage, Gwen always looks flawless. She's one of the few celebrities that can pull off the vintage Hollywood starlet look authentically through her immaculately styled hair and stunning fashion sense. Her makeup is applied with precision, using classic techniques with a modern edge.
One of Gwen's most famous makeup looks is her red lips and black cat's-eye liner. Her porcelain skin and icy blonde hair are a fabulous canvas for this retro-inspired look. Stefani makes sure not to overdo it by keeping her eye shadow neutral.
For a modern twist, Gwen swaps black eyeliner for electric blue, and opts for a softer nude lip. Her ultra-voluminous hairstyle finishes off her cutting-edge look.
The retro look is great for red carpet events, but the black and red color combo can be a bit harsh. To soften it up, Stefani uses dark espresso eye shadow shades to flatter her dark brown eyes. The upper and lower lash lines are smoked out, with ample mascara to lengthen the lashes. Her subtly glossed pink lips perfect this soft and sweet look.

World Allocation 80/20 (Dimensional)
The fund aims to invest approximately 80% of its net assets in shares (either directly or through investment in other investment funds) and 20% of its net assets in debt.
Main features
- Actively managed by Dimensional
- Invests about 80% in shares and 20% in debt
How it works
The fund aims to invest approximately 80% of its net assets in shares (either directly or through investment in other investment funds) and 20% of its net assets in debt. The fund invests in high quality debt, such as bonds, money market instruments and commercial paper and certificates of deposits issued by governments, other public bodies and companies in developed countries.
The fund invests to gain exposure to developed and emerging markets using a core strategy meaning that the fund has a general exposure to the stock-market with a greater allocation towards shares of smaller sized companies and value companies. Value companies are those where, at the time of purchase, the fund manager thinks the price is low compared to the accounting value of the company. The fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in emerging markets countries. The fund may use financial derivative instruments for the purposes of hedging and efficient portfolio management. As this fund invests some of its assets outside the eurozone, a currency risk arises for a euro investor.
Important Notes
- Annual management charges (AMC) apply. The fund performance shown in the factsheet and on this website is before the full AMC is applied on your policy.
- In addition to Zurich Life's normal AMC, this fund is subject to an additional management charge of 0.38% p.a.

US STOCKS-Financials drag on Wall St as Trump agenda weighed
* Dow down 0.34 pct, S&P down 0.26 pct, Nasdaq up 0.05 pct (Updates to late afternoon)
* Expanding malls in Cairo, building new ones
* Positive for Egypt's drive to repair economy
* UAE government offers support
* Gulf sovereign wealth funds looking at Egyptian assets
By Mirna Sleiman
DAVOS, Switzerland, Jan 22 Dubai retailer Majid Al Futtaim, which holds the Carrefour franchise in the Middle East, plans to invest about $2.3 billion in Egypt in the next few years, its chief executive said on Wednesday, a sign of Gulf investors' growing interest in the Egyptian economy.
"Total investments on the plan, including Carrefour, should be around 16 billion Egyptian pounds over the next four to five years," Iyad Malas told Reuters on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos.
The investment plan is positive for Egypt's army-backed government, which is trying to attract foreign money back to the country and create jobs to ease social discontent as it manages a difficult transition to elections this year.
MAF, the sole franchisee of French retailer Carrefour in the region, will expand one of its shopping malls in Cairo's Maadi district at a cost of 3.2 billion pounds, and begin construction next week of another mall next to Cairo's main airport that will cost a similar amount, Malas said.
In addition, the company expects to complete construction of its 'Mall of Egypt' project near Cairo by the end of 2015 at a cost of 4.9 billion pounds, while the Carrefour operation plans further investments, he said.
New foreign investment in Egypt almost dried up after the revolution which overthrew Hosni Mubarak in 2011 - though Malas said Carrefour had continued to open new stores over the past three years.
The economy has begun to stabilise, helped by billions of dollars of aid which Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait provided after the army ousted Islamist President Mohamed Mursi last July.
While Western investors remain cautious, some Gulf Arab companies are returning to the country, encouraged by their governments, which see political advantage in supporting the army-backed authorities who replaced Mursi.
"We definitely receive support from the UAE government to invest in Egypt. We've been asked if we need help," Malas said. "We also have a very good relationship with the government in Egypt. We've managed to work with different governments and clearly this government is going the extra mile. That's what we need."
While Majid Al Futtaim is a private group, much of the Gulf's investment in Egypt this year looks likely to come from state-linked investors.
Ahmed Heikal, chairman and founder of Citadel Capital , a big Egyptian investment firm, told Reuters in Davos that sovereign wealth funds from countries such as the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait were expressing interest in Egypt.
"Sovereign wealth funds from this region are starting to look at opportunities. Energy is a sector they're certainly looking at, as well as real estate and food."
He added, "These SWFs before the revolution were investing as normal sovereign funds, looking at opportunities at arm's length. Now investing in Egypt has proven necessary to safeguard their geopolitical interests."
Qatar had good relations with Mursi's Muslim Brotherhood and as a result its ties with the current Egyptian government have been cooler. Heikal said he did not expect Qatar to invest additional amounts in Egypt for now.
Visiting the UAE this week, Egyptian Investment Minister Osama Saleh said he expected net foreign direct investment in his country to rise by a third to about $4 billion in the current fiscal year, which ends in June, versus the previous year.
"It is a mix of investments, but a large portion of it is Gulf investments," said Saleh, adding that he was talking to UAE companies in sectors ranging from real estate to shipping.
Before Egypt's 2011 revolution, it was attracting net foreign direct investment of around $8 billion annually, so even with aid from the Gulf, the economy is not yet back to normal.
"The operational environment remains challenging," Heikal said. "The best advice I would give investors is to stay out of politics."

Three-minute test scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 13, at approximately 11:50 a.m.
No public action required.
Release Courtesy of Andrew Beckner
Communications Consultant
Duke Energy
SENECA, S.C. – The public alert notification sirens around the Oconee Nuclear Station will be tested on Wednesday, Jan. 13, at approximately 11:50 a.m.
The 65 sirens within 10 miles of the Oconee Nuclear Station will be tested for three-minutes to make sure each siren works properly. This full-cycle siren test is performed once each quarter in cooperation with emergency officials in Oconee and Pickens counties, who are responsible for sounding the sirens.
Hearing a siren does not mean to evacuate. In an emergency, sirens are sounded as a signal for residents to tune to a local radio or TV station that would carry an emergency alerting message. County officials use these stations to provide information to the public. If sirens are heard and residents are unsure if it is a test or an emergency, they should tune to their local radio or TV station.
For more information about the public alert notification sirens, residents can refer to information available on www.duke-energy.com.

i know nothing about coins so i was wondering if this is a chinesse coin or what? There are to many fakes out there that im afraid this is one of them. Look at the 3. Looks fishy to me and that line between the arrows?
O-112 Bar Dot variety! Very cool coin. You can see a tiny bar and dot beside the 6 in the date. 100% genuine capped bust half. ldhair is right. It's cleaned, but absolutely authentic! Nice find!
1836 Good date sadly its cleaned RPD? or is O-112 O# are hard for me to remember them all unless coin is in hand and with my books.Great eye */* Tom B .
The first thing you can do is start a new thread with your question including two good photographs depicting the obverse and the reverse. These are a few different types of 22 no D coins and there are some diagnostics that can be discussed in your new thread. For example, is the first 2 stronger or the second 2 stronger in 1922?
The first 2 is alot stronger than the second 2 and it just don't look right am thinking its one of those counterfiets out of china am not shure

Dear Debian maintainer, The fontconfig Debian package, which you are the maintainer of, has pending bug report(s) which include translation updates or fixes for po-debconf, namely bug number 411990 (and maybe other similar bugs). Even if we're still far from the release of the next Debian version, letting such bugs sleep in the BTS is simply lowering the chances that your package interaction with its users may be done in something else than the English language. It is also not encouraging for translators. I have the intention, as part of a more general action of the Debian i18n Task Force to build and possibly upload a non-maintainer upload for fontconfig in order to fix this as well as all pending translations for the debconf templates. Such changes are always harmless, which explains why I safely consider building NMU's for such issues even though they're obviously non critical. The schedule for the NMU (in case it happens, that is if you agree with it or if I don't receive any answer in 14 days) is roughly the following: Thursday, October 11, 2007 : send this notice Thursday, October 25, 2007 : post a NMU announcement to debian-i18n with you (maintainer) CC'ed Sunday, November 04, 2007 : deadline for receiving translation updates Monday, November 05, 2007 : build the package and upload it to DELAYED/0-day send the NMU patch to the BTS Tuesday, November 06, 2007 : NMU uploaded to incoming If you intent to upload yourself, I suggest waiting for a few days anyway as some translations could come in soon. Just mention this to me. I will then subscribe to the Package Tracking System for fontconfig and follow its life for 60 days after my NMU in order to fix any issue potentially introduced by my upload. Let me know, as soon as possible, if you have any kind of objection to this process. If you'd rather do the fix yourself, I will of course leave the package alone. Same if you have reasons not to do the update now. --

The new Schiit Amp/DAC is looking enticing! Anyone pick them up and use with these cans yet?
They were just made available a couple days ago. Thankfully a lot of people have them on order so we'll see soon! You'll see them posted in the http://www.head-fi.org/t/640783/schiit-magni-headphone-amplifier thread.
:( . I have my Q701 around 3 months now, totally love the thing wearing it day in day out.
The right ear is emitting some soft crunching distortion, resonance-like sound, especially in response to lower frequencies; it's real hard not to hear it at normal to high volume. Considering I bought the headphone in the US at a great price and live in the EU, I don't believe I am entitled to much of a warranty. Real sad.
What gear are you using and how are they connected? I've found that clipping/distortion is usually suspect (or even hair). Is volume at 100% on any of the gear? Do you have EQ enabled somewhere?
Well, I've been using this set-up for a long time. Desktop set-up = X-Fi Go! into speaker amplifier, audiophile set-up = V-Dac MK-II into Burson HA-160. Portable set-up = iPod shuffle & FiiO E6. The desktop set-up is often at 100%, clipping could very well be a problem but 'till this day I've never noticed it too much.
What I've noticed so far is that it can mostly be heard on isolated acoustic instruments stand-alone. A big part of my music library is piano music, so the noise is heard on a whole lot of tracks. The noise can be heard on all set-ups to a varying degree. I've tested the portable set-up with the family at home, after a while they reported noises when I told them exactly what to listen to. So not very easy to discern. If it doesn't go away I might just sell it on ebay, anyone listening to their Avicii and Tiesto won't be able to hear it at all I'm sure.
I've also noticed that my aftermarket cable seemed to have a lot more of this noise than the stock cable. Either that, or plugging and unplugging the mini-xlr of the headphone makes for the distortion. Maybe the xlr is doing weird? Dust in the xlr port? Don't see any, though.
Since you seem to have experienced clipping/distortion before, could you tell me what was the cause and what you did to fix/prevent it?
I really wonder if I hear the noise just now or if I haven't been bothered by it up 'till now. I don't want to buy another AKG and experience the same..
Edit: OK the characteristic of the noise definitely seems like clipping. But why haven't I heard this up 'till now (for 3 months!) and how do I get rid of it T_T. Also, when using my Beyer DT880 or Bose noise cancelling headphones, the same artifacts are near non-existant. Sigh.
I've replied to someone already about this. My brand new Q701s had this same problem in the left ear after about 2 hours. I sent mine back and got another set and this has been fine. Nothing had changed. Not sure if this makes any difference but the 1st set had a serial number in the 11,000s, the 2nd set is 05206. My set-up is E7+E9, low gain.
Was thinking of buying those as my musical taste grows "older" with time :-D but all i have is HRT's HEADSTREAMER.
The Headstreamer is enough to power my Denon d2000 (barely, but enough), are the Q701 harder to drive than the D2000? (especially volume-wise)
Thanks to those who answer :-)
I think that Headfonia said the Headstreamer had a better amp than the E10, which I think would handle the D2000 fine. The Q701 would probably scale up a bit more with a desktop amp.
Quick question to the 701 community... have any of you have the AKG logo rub off? like on both sides you'll see 2 circular plates L / R - both sides with AKG... one day i noticed that one side faded and broke off.. so i decided to rub it all off instead of some broken AKG logo - this a defect or am i just a sad unlucky owner ?
My headband arches are sticking. Does anyone else have this problem?
Still enjoying these quite a bit after owning them for about 7 weeks now. I think they are the best sounding thing I have put on(or in) my ears. So clear and tight sounding. I don't know exactly how much time is on them, but it's got to be somewhere around 150-200 hours by now. About 50 days at I'd guess an average of about 3-4 hours of usage on average a day.
Returned them to amazon today. 2-month return window has passed but after writing some witty-angry e-mail I managed to get a return arranged. Money will be refunded though, no repair/replacement which infects me with upgradeitis yet again SIGH. Buying another Q701 would definitely be safe, though, wonderful phones.
My logos are holding out fine.
Maybe it means you use them a lot?
And who could blame you?
I wonder if anyone's ever put K550 pads on the Q701. I know AKG makes a lot of their pads interchangeable, they just twist into the bayonet lock. My K400 and Q701 pads were interchangeable.
I bet it would do weird things (possibly negative) to the sound.

We had a wonderful weekend stay at Heather's studio. We were 10 minutes from Bromley and 30 minutes from Stratton, and 10 minutes from all the shops in Manchester. The "house" was large, with high vaulted ceilings and large windows with beautiful views. The kitchen and bathroom were well-stocked. Check in was seamless and Heather checked in frequently during our stay. We would definitely stay here again!
Cynthia2017-02-13T00:00:00ZWe spent New Years weekend at Heather's place and enjoyed the open layout of the condo and gorgeous views of snowy Vermont. Heather was quick to reply to my emails with questions. There were also great instructions for everything we needed during our stay. The drive to Stratton was about 30 minutes and Manchester was less than 15 which was perfect for a day of brunch and shopping. I would absolutely stay here again!
Tali 2017-01-03T00:00:00ZGreat place to stay! Heather was an amazing host. She responded very quickly and answered all my questions about the house. The house is very cozy and clean!

I was planning a snowboard trip in Vermont and needed a place to sleep for one night only. I'm very happy that I found Barbara's place. It's located in a beautiful quite road near Bennington, also not so far from Mountain Snow (where we went in the next day). If you stay with Barbara you will have your own studio (with kitchen and bathroom) at a very fair price, which includes lot of amenities and privacy. Whether you are planning a ski/snowboard trip in Vermont or just a city escape, this is definitely a very great choice for you! Barbara is a wonderful lady who will receive you very well and make you feel like home. Highly recommended! I'll definitely come back if I plan another trip in that area again.
Caio2017-01-31T00:00:00ZBarbara was a great host! The place is a lot bigger and nicer than it looks. Recommend to all!
Xiaoai2017-03-06T00:00:00ZBarbara was super-host for graciously welcoming us to her home late in the night. She offered suggestions for a late-night dinner and directions through town. Her home is newly renovated, clean and comfy in a very peaceful location just a few miles outside of Bennington. Barbara was available if we needed anything, yet considerate of not intruding. We had everything we needed and would gladly visit again.

Our experience was wonderful and very accurate to the deception on the posting. We are new to Airbnb and Tina was gracious to give us a chance. We would stay here again absolutely. Thank you Tina for having us!
Johanna2016-01-02T00:00:00ZTina's apartment rests along the beautiful backdrop of Vermont's mountains. It is a very spacious and comfortable place. Tina was extremely responsive and worked hard to make sure that we had an excellent stay. She truly is a wonderful host, and if we're ever in Manchester again, we know exactly where to stay!
Jeffrey2016-09-25T00:00:00ZTina was a wonderful host. Her warm and friendly personality made us feel very welcomed, and we immediately felt at home. She had very generously left us a basket of her delicious fresh baked sconces which we enjoyed each morning with coffee. We loved the bucolic setting - sheep below, cows behind - and enjoyed the deck (where we spent most of our time when there) set under beautiful mature locust trees. The apartment was immaculate and very comfortable. The neighboring homes/farms are attractive and well kept. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Tina's apartment, it was very convenient to Manchester and surrounding area which made it easy to return to and regroup. We wouldn't hesitate to return. Tina was great and the apartment was very comfortable.
skip2016-06-07T00:00:00ZThis was an excellent Airbnb listening. Although we missed Tina both days we were there, her instructions for access and operating everything in the house were perfect. The tall person in our party truly appreciated the shower extender! And everyone said great things of Tina and she went above and beyond when she found something we left she offered to mail it to us, but we just asked her to donate it.
Timothy2016-02-08T00:00:00ZTerrific place close to downtown Manchester. Clean, great host and slept 3 comfortably.
charles2016-11-25T00:00:00ZThe apartment was exactly as advertised, and was a comfortable base from which to explore the Manchester area. Tina was a fabulous host! She was ever only a text message away if there was anything I needed.
Courtenay2016-09-01T00:00:00ZI spent my birthday weekend at Tina's lovely place with my husband and my sister. The flat is really spacious - ideal for 3 with 2 good sized bedrooms. The whole place has a cosy chalet feel to it, as well as being well equipped. Tina even provided shampoo and conditioner, which was great. The location is lovely - close to the great restaurants and shops of Manchester and just a short drive to some beautiful walks. It was so quiet and peaceful - we didn't want to leave! Tina was very communicative and everything went smoothly.
Katy2016-10-24T00:00:00ZThe apartment was as advertised. And was very comfortable. It's in a good location and was very quiet. What a great value. Tina was easily accessible when we had a question and our check in/out was easy.

We had a lovely time in David's place. It is a perfect combination of modern amenities in a fully restored old barn. The apartment is exactly as described - clean, comfortable with a beautiful bathroom to boot! The continental breakfast, Keurig coffee and tea, toaster and a small refrigerator filled with yogurt, milk, juice, water, jam and butter...was a an added bonus! The location is a 5 minute drive to Wilmington with quaint shops and restaurants. We hope to return!
Geri2016-07-19T00:00:00ZAbsolutely perfect Vermont getaway. David has an eye for detail, and the apartment was beautifully appointed. The breakfast foods and coffee were a great touch, and were essential to our lazy mornings waking up to the gorgeous scenery from the private back deck. Would absolutely recommend to friends and hope to return again some day. Thank you so much David!
Lila2016-07-26T00:00:00ZNewly renovated, very tasteful. Totally Vermont in every way. Convenient to town with good restaurants. A shame the weather didn't cooperate so we could take advantage of the bikes and the rail trail right from the house. Host was great. Friendly but unobtrusive. Felt very private.
Chris2015-06-24T00:00:00ZDavid's place was awesome! It's in a gorgeous location, easy to get to and the converted barn is absolutely stunning. What a great little escape- wish I could have stayed longer! PS- what a comfortable bed!
Heather2016-10-09T00:00:00ZDavid's place certainly exceeded our expectations! We had a wonderful stay in a most tastefully furnished home/apt. David met us on arrival and gave us an overview and, from there, we were all set for a wonderful weekend. In addition to being extraordinarily comfortable and beautifully furnished, the home/apt is centrally located to Wilmington dining and locations of interest. It was also perfect that David provided us with coffee, teas and food for breakfast --we were able to linger and then head out for touring and fun. We will definately be back?
aaron2016-11-14T00:00:00ZThis place is heaven on earth! We loved our stay at David and JoAnns barn! The interior decoration is very tasteful, everything was clean and new and there was plenty of space for my husband and me. David welcomed us personally, he showed us around, explained us everything and gave us a great recommendation for Dinner. The hosts provided food and beverages in the fridge for breakfast - very thoughtful. Furthermore, David offered us bikes to encounter the nearby lake. All in all, this was one of the best airbnb experiences we had so far and we'd love to come back to the beautiful Vermont someday.
Kathrin2015-09-27T00:00:00ZDavid was so very nice to greet us upon arrival, show us the apartment, and give us tips on where to go and what to do in the area. His dog Nelson is so sweet! The barn looked absolutely amazing and just like the pictures. It is very spacious, tastefully decorated, and extremely clean. Breakfast was taken care of: we had everything we needed. If you're planning on spending some quiet, peaceful time in Vermont, I'd recommend this Airbnb without a doubt. Wish we could have stayed longer!
Marieke2015-11-24T00:00:00ZDavid & JoAnn were very kind and accessible, yet not overbearing. They provided excellent food and drink options for breakfast in the apartment and the information about the area that they had was helpful for finding food options in the area. The road and trail around the lake was also lovely - exactly what we needed for a quiet weekend.

AnnaSuper cozy house, solar house maybe is not as big as most people imagine, but 3 beds and a futon are enough for most family. It is close to both Killington and Stratton resorts. Nothing would be better than having a good sleep in such a warm house after skiing or riding. Andrew is a nice and patient host, he set everything pretty well for us, he replied me in time even when he was in thanksgiving party. Me and my friends had a great time during the holiday season!
航瑞(Hangrui)2016-12-08T00:00:00ZThe Solar House is all about location. It is very close to the market and a 3 minute drive to the mountain. The space is definitely "cozy" and the TV has no hookups, just FYI. It is a bring your own HDMI cable situation.

our stay at pam's farm was phenomenal. the barn apartment was so cozy and comfortable and filled with all sorts of thoughtful touches. the setting was breathtaking and pam was the perfect host: responsive, helpful and beyond generous. our stay literally felt like we were being hosted by a friend. we will definitely be back!
diana2017-01-05T00:00:00ZPam's place and location are gorgeous! She has been the kindest and most generous host, preparing for us the coziest and warmest place and supplying us with any needed information about the area. All around us were nature, fresh air, majestic horses and blue skies... Our stay was absolutely perfect and the quiet and beauty that we experienced were priceless! Highly recommended little gem!
Luca2016-10-25T00:00:00ZThis place is magical! Pam was the perfect host: flexible, warm, inviting, and helpful. The farm is stunning, the horses were so friendly, and the chickens were the perfect wake up call. We brought our dog with us and she loved it! Perfect weekend getaway with plenty of hiking, camping, & just admiring nature, but close enough to Manchester for loads of restaurants, cafes, and shops to choose from. Would absolutely recommend the barn to any nature & animal loving people/couples! Enjoy!
Christa2016-10-17T00:00:00ZWhat an incredible spot! We were a bit nervous about being in the barn next to the horses but we didn't hear them at all. Pam was an incredible host who made us feel so welcome with a ton of recommendations and a basket of Vermont goodies. The cottage is gorgeous - beautifully decorated and spotless. We wished we were staying for longer!
Sally2016-10-04T00:00:00ZThe Vermont Barn apartment was very clean, bright, peaceful and attractively priced. The environs were wonderful, and if you are a horse lover, you'll see possibly the CLEANEST horse barn in the free world...you'll also note just how meticulous and attentive Pam is about the things she cares for, which means YOU, when you stay there. I could go on and on, from the high level of communication and good humor Pam evidenced in some back and forth texts with her, to the wonderfully welcoming and professional staff she employs, as well as her consideration in leaving a basket of local goodies for us to choose from. Everything about our stay was extraordinary. Pam and staff are the best!
Chris2016-10-11T00:00:00ZPam was an amazing host.!!! She made us feel extremely welcome at her home. The pictures really do not do justice for how comfortable and cozy our apartment was (from the decor to the lovely treats she left in our room). The location was superb; it was quiet and relaxing, which was just what we were looking for. Pam was great with recommending nearby places to eat and where to go for activities. Thanks to her suggestions we were able to have great meals at restaurants closeby, enjoy hiking the Antone trail and able to attend the local farmers market. We had so many options (from Pam's recommendations) to do and not enough time. Pam and her daughter were extremely generous and allowed us to borrow their bicycles . Erick and Alfonso, who worked on the farm were also extremely warm and welcoming and answered all of our questions. Extremely thankful to Pam and her daughter for being so accommodating and hope to see them soon. I would highly recommend staying here.
Joel2016-09-06T00:00:00ZPam was a great host that offered a variety of local suggestions and treats! We had a great time on her farm, swimming in the pond, and saying hello to the horses. I would highly recommend this for a relaxing escape.
Chelsea2016-09-11T00:00:00ZI've stayed at several AirBnB's across the globe, and this was definitely one of my favorites. The barn apartment was cozy, updated, and clean. Pam was very easy to communicate with, and offered a great amount of amenities like light local snacks. The property is beautifully maintained, and it was great to hang out with her horses in the morning. Looking forward to our next trip!

We had a wonderful stay. The appartment is very comfy and had everything we need. Our host, Bob, was welcoming and attentive. We highly recommend this Vermont Getaway. L'appartement est très confortable et très bien isolé de la maison principale (même si il y est attaché). Notre hôte, Bob, a été très accueillant et prévenant. Nous recommandons fortement l'endroit.
Maia 2014-08-05T00:00:00ZWe went skiing at Mt. Stratton and enjoyed this beautiful getaway guesthouse in Londonderry. The place was very conveniently located, it took only a 10-15 min drive to Mt Stratton. The guesthouse itself is very clean and spacious. The hot tub was an amazing relief after a long day of skiing.
Rolf2016-02-19T00:00:00ZBob and Rosalie are such great hosts. We were given a tour of the property on arrival and given a brief how the lighting system, the hot tub and other amenities. The pictures and description of the property do not do enough justice. The apartment is well furnished, well equipped and very clean. We especially loved the quiet and beautiful surrounding. We sat outside the porch one evening and caught sight of several fire flies. I have used Airbnb more than half a dozen times in the last 3 years and IMHO Rosalie and Bob's apartment is by far the most outstanding . Definitely worthy of its 5 star listing.
Mike2015-06-01T00:00:00ZAmazing amazing amazing! Secluded location, surrounded by nature, and with great restaurants nearby. A clean, super well appointed apartment connected by a hallway to Rosalie & Bob's house, giving you all the privacy you want with two super helpful hosts just steps away. I particularly enjoyed a dip in the hot tub overlooking the valley with my morning coffee! I visited the Clark museum, which was a bit of a drive from this location but very worth it. Great spot for traveling with baby, I was able to do some laundry, they have a pack and play and toys and we got a good look at some local deer!
Muriel2015-11-27T00:00:00ZWOW! Rosalie was an AWESOME host. We enjoyed the goodies she left for us. This was our first Air B n B rental and this place exceeded our expectations. Comfortable, peaceful and the place had everything we needed plus more. We can't wait to go back. Lisa and Brian
Lisa2014-09-19T00:00:00ZWe had the best couple of days at Rosalie and Bob's fantastic place in Vermont. We had a couple of days to spend in Vermont after a wedding nearby and this place was just perfect. The apartment is well stocked with all the things we needed for a home away from home. The kitchen is well appointed, and there is a good stock of trail bars, and trail mix as well as herbs and lots of coffee for the coffee machine. Rosalie and Bob are the perfect hosts. Full of local advice, but given through the filter of seasoned travellers. They certainly know what travellers need on their visits to Vermont. The beds are exceptionally comfortable and the quiet is remarkable. The hot tub is a very welcome bonus, and we ate on the patio both nights cooking on the excellent outdoor grill/barbecue. The nearby park is a short walk down the road and has swimming and trails for walking and running. Although low key it is free and beautiful. There is also a superb local farmers market.
Steve2016-08-02T00:00:00ZOur experience was very extravagant and amazing. If you looking for somewhere quiet to stay it definatly is the place. Their care taker Trevor was very amazing and helpful with everything. The house is very welcoming, everything is sooo clean and the beds are sooo comfortable. Town is not far away and overall this place is just the place to be hopefully i go baq when it snows and we can have even more fun
Parrish2016-03-26T00:00:00ZThis was our third time staying with Rosalie & Bob and our experience was once again excellent. The property and the hosts are without equal in the area. If we could give it 6 stars, we would...we'll be back again soon.

Great place at a great price. Clean, well maintained and close to the ski resorts. I would highly recommend this apartment for any ski vacation.
Paul2017-01-30T00:00:00ZThis is a wonderful place for a Vermont getaway. It's super clean and spacious, with a very well equipped kitchen (and when I was actually rude enough to complain about the lack of tongs, Scott ran right over with a pair from his own kitchen!) We had everything we needed, and the beds were super comfy. A wonderful place to come home to after a day of skiing. We will definitely stay here again if we plan another trip to the area. Highly recommended!
Sara2016-02-09T00:00:00ZGreat little place. Fully stocked with all the essentials. The host was very pleasant and easy to deal with. Definitely a keeper!
Igor2016-01-04T00:00:00ZEverything we wanted and more! This was our first Airbnb experience and we were thrilled. Scott was very quick to answer questions before and after we booked. Everything was very easy, the home better than our expectations, and Scott went above and beyond assisting us with our stay. We enjoyed using the kitchen and even the fireplace. A great place to relax to after a day of skiing. Much better than staying at a motel or b&b. We are hoping to stay here again next year! Highly recommended!
Lauren2016-02-29T00:00:00ZWe felt very welcome and the place was just as described. It is also very clean and has some homey touches that makes it feel more like a home than a rental. We very much appreciated the hiking and outdoor suggestions and the loan of a map. Wish we could have spent more time at the property. Great for a small group - as has a good kitchen! Thanks Bill and Nancy!
Michelle2015-12-29T00:00:00ZGreat place - very clean & comfortable, with very nice hosts! Close to Manchester for good eats & close to the ski resorts for full fun days at the mountain. Highly recommend this for other potential guests! - Adam
Adam2017-03-06T00:00:00ZThis home is a perfect meeting place for 2 couples or a couple's getaway. It is one of the most comfortable places we have ever stayed in terms of comfortable seating and beds. We had a good time fixing our meals. We didn't have time or very good weather(snow!) for exploring, but neighborhood and the area are beautiful. The host's interactions with us were just right. We would return to this house for sure.
Deborah2017-02-12T00:00:00ZWhat a find! Perfect for a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 boys). The place was incredibly clean and spacious, very comfortable and warm. All amenities as noted in the listing with great details about the area. We stayed two nights and skied two days - one at Okemo (35 min) and one at Stratton (20 min) - so this was a perfect location for us. William was a great host - very responsive to emails/chats and was there when we arrived in the evening. We will certainly plan to stay here for future trips to VT.

Victoria2017-01-30T00:00:00ZWe really enjoyed this artsy apartment. Our hostesses left us goodies and their home was warm and welcoming. We loved our stay and would definitely visit again. The house was close to shops and eateries and with the weather so lovely we walked around town.
Brad2016-09-14T00:00:00ZAnn was very good in communication , made sure our stay was comfortable , arrived late all the way from north carolina , she had beds made , extra pillows , sheets , good parking space in back of house She left us breakfast in form of fresh bagels , fridge was full of all essentials you would find in your own - we had 3 kids under 3 , and every body was comfortable - loved the nice upstairs separate apartment which our friends used Great location on main street - Historic church and cemetery , monument very close
sourabh2016-10-09T00:00:00ZAll we can say is Wow!! Such a beautiful, quirky, comfortable home with fresh flowers everywhere, fresh bagels and coffee, lots or water for hikes, and the most comfortable of beds. Easy walking distance to Main Street Bennington. Sitting on the porch delightful. If you love color, wall art, jewels, glass, and lush comfort spots throughout these two floors this is the best. We were 4 adults and a 12 yo who adored all his own pillows on the pull out velvet couch.

The most quaint place. Great value. Cozy. Great peek into life in the Vermont woods.
Rhys2015-10-12T00:00:00ZAppearances are deceptive. What looks like a weathered barn holds a charmingly appointed apartment with lovely bedding, comfy beds, and while, spartan, the kitchen had everything we needed. A booklet on the kitchen table gave us recommendations for the best swimming holes and restaurants. On a hill above the property there was a fire pit, where my daughter built a wonderful fire, and we toasted s'mores. The neighbors in the house next door were also very helpful, answering our questions and offering recommendations. We'll come back.
Nancy2016-08-29T00:00:00ZThe apartment was lovely. The pictures were accurate. Andrew was very welcoming and unobtrusive. Neighbors on the property were friendly. Andrew has a great (and funny) guidebook for guests.
Kelly2016-08-22T00:00:00ZGreat times at this place! Andrew was accommodating to our special needs and for that we are grateful.
Mike2015-09-07T00:00:00ZGreat little cabin, close to Stratton
Robert2017-01-18T00:00:00ZMy favorite Airbnb so far! Andrew was very welcoming and helpful - he had lots of points of interest to suggest and we definitely took advantage of that! Up the hill was a little fire pit that we also used. Great stay at this place. It's even cuter than the photos make it out to be and I can't wait to come back.
Melissa2015-09-08T00:00:00ZPrivate, quiet and beautiful place along the creek. Thanks for sharing! Don't be fooled by the barn.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the barn house. The house was fully stocked with all the comforts of home. It's apparent that Heather has put a good deal of thought into stocking the accommodations. The kitchen is stocked not just with pots and pans, but basic spices and oils as well. There is shampoo, conditioner, and bath soap in the shower. Speaking of the shower, the water pressure is AMAZING! South Londonderry is quaint and serene. We had a wonderful dinner at SoLo (which is a 2-3 mins drive from the barn). We'd can't wait to make a trip back to the barn during the winter. I know it'll be lovely!
Andrew2015-05-26T00:00:00ZWe had such a wonderful stay last week in Heather and Steve's aptly named "cozy barn apartment". The gas fireplace was just perfect to welcome us back after ski-filled days at Stratton, Magic Mountain and Okemo (each is within 10-20 minutes away, Bromley too). With the futon open, the apartment easily accommodated our family of 4. Heather had stocked everything we could imagine in the kitchen and bathroom, including a delicious, home-made date bread! Communication with Heather was very easy, including weather updates as we drove up to Vermont in a snow/ice storm. One morning, Heather texted me, "Turkeytime!", to indicate that there were wild turkeys out in the backyard which delighted my kids to no end. If we end up in this lovely part of Vermont in the future, we would certainly welcome another stay at the barn.
Drew2015-01-26T00:00:00ZFantastic apartment, very clean, and absolutely gorgeous. Heather thought of everything.
Kent2016-01-31T00:00:00ZI had a great stay at the "barn." The accommodations were excellent: the bed and futon were comfortable, the bathroom and kitchen were well stocked, and the fireplace was enjoyable after a long day of skiing! In a addition to the excellent accommodations the hosts, Heather and Steve were truly exceptional, readily available to answer any question we had. We had a great weekend and I highly recommend this place if you are skiing Stratton, as it is a short 15 drive.
Stephen2015-01-12T00:00:00ZThis was the perfect place to unwind. The barn apt is peaceful and quiet and so clean. And the bed is sooooo comfortable, I slept so well! It right across the street from a beautiful river. It's close to lots of towns with a variety of restaurants. Heather & Steve were wonderful hosts, so friendly and Heather made the most delicious nut bread that we devoured. Steve was also so generous and gave me a few books to read about writing. Thank you for a wonderful visit.
Jasmine2015-09-24T00:00:00ZOur stay at the barn apartment was lovely! Although Heather was not home during our stay, she still left the fridge stocked with milk, fresh cider, and homemade date bread. The apartment was clean and spacious, even cuter than the pictures! We very much enjoyed the gas fireplace, as well. I would love staying here again and have already recommended it to a friend! Thanks Heather!
Sarah2016-03-28T00:00:00ZTrue to the description, Heather's barn was cozy and rustic. Everything was well stocked (bathroom, kitchen) - they even had a small collection of board games! We had a fantastic weekend, the barn was just minutes away by car from Stratton Mountain.
Steve2014-12-09T00:00:00ZThis is seriously the coziest barn ever. We have an almost 2 yr old son and it was the perfect home and location for us. There's a great farmers market less than 5 minutes away, a farm with tractors and animals 5 minutes away, and an amazing restaurant - Solo Farm up the block! Heather and Stephen are very kind and made us feel right at home. They also had a lot of great suggestions on where to visit in the area. And to top it all off, there was a lovely date cake waiting for us.

Don't be thrown off by the lack of reviews. We were a bit worried at first but learned that the loft has only recently been built. The loft is run by the property manager and she was extremely responsive. The complex is beautiful and within walking distance of Spring Street. The loft itself is clean and comfortable. We highly recommend this loft!
Jose2016-10-09T00:00:00ZWe had a wonderful stay at this modern loft, made even more special by the first snow of the season! The place is more spacious than the photographs suggest, with sky-high ceilings, big windows, and two cozy bedrooms up a half-flight of stairs. Check-in is super easy -- the key is kept in a little lockbox by the front door, so we were able to arrive and depart at our convenience. We were so pleased to find a washer/dryer (although there was not, during our stay, detergent provided). The location can't be beat: less than five minutes to Hot Tomatoes and Hops & Vines, and slightly longer walk to the 'center' of Williamstown on Spring Street. We highly recommend this place!
Natalie2016-12-01T00:00:00ZGood communication about arrival despite our last minute planning. This is a beautifully done mill renovation on the river, only a short walk to college and main street
Jen2016-10-13T00:00:00ZThis was an amazing space. It is close to a lot of great places in town and was ideal for the four of us. We really enjoyed each and every moment that we were there. The space is lovely and it has a lot of great natural light! In addition, there are several places to go hiking and participate in other outdoor adventures. I would definitely stay there again!
Derrick2017-02-20T00:00:00ZGreat for Williams families. Short distance to Spring Street and campus. Modern and bright.
Dan2016-11-27T00:00:00ZWe had a great stay at the Cable Mills Apartments, with a few minor inconveniences. We would definitely reserve this space again. PROS: -Amazing re-purposed space. The apartment is spacious and comfortable, easy to find, parking very close to the front door. There are only two bedrooms but 4-6 people could very easily share the space without feeling squeezed. -Great location. Mountains all around and a waterfall right behind the property. It's only a short walk to Spring Street in Williamstown (food, shopping, movie theater, etc...) and at least five great restaurants. It's a simple and beautiful drive to any location in Berkshire County. We took a great many road trips, from Lenox to Greenfield. -Great appliances and comfortable furniture. The beds and couches were cozy and the stove and utensils are great for cooking. -Friendly community. We got to meet a number of neighbors who were all welcoming. The building has a great history and the residents were eager to share. CONS: -The common space was chilly. The lovely high ceilings and giant windows make the living room and dining area uncomfortably cold at times. The heat in these spaces wavered from 68 to 71 the entire time, and most of the heat made it's way to the bedrooms which were a little too warm when it was time to sleep. -The apartment is very dark at night. There is little overhead lighting and the lamps are not very powerful. There is no lighting above the dining area so it was hard to see when we were eating, and there was only one functioning desk lamp in one of the bedrooms that had to be moved from spot to spot as needed. -On Thanksgiving morning as we were greeting our family we had to go outside when the fire alarm went off. We were out there for 30-45 minutes, along with the rest of the residents. Thank goodness it was a mild winter day! According to the residents, this happens about once a week, so apparently you have a 1 in 7 chance of this happening to you while you're there. FYI: -If you plan on cooking, you need to bring EVERYTHING. No spices, olive oil/pan spray, etc... This is not a complaint at all, but because all Air BnBs are different it's helpful to know this (we didn't). Also, there's a plunger pot that makes 2-3 cups of coffee, but for a larger group or heavy coffee drinkers you should bring a pot. -We could not for the life of us figure out where to put our trash bags. We asked a helpful resident who laughed and said, "Now that's a GREAT question", pointed us to the main building and directed us with a number of twists and turns, but we wandered the halls for some time and could not find the trash room. -Coffee from Tunnel City, pizza from Hot Tomatoes! All in all, the Cable Mills Apartment is highly recommended for a great Berkshire County vacation.
Seth2016-11-25T00:00:00ZGreat location for visiting Williams College and the surrounding area. Modern and clean. Highly recommend this loft. Will definitely stay here again when in the area.

The addition of wifi and TV would make it Perfect. Location for the Travers weekend was ideal ..... thanks so much.
Chantal2016-08-31T00:00:00ZWe stayed at Mel's lovely loft for 2 nights and absolutely loved it! Mel was so kind, baking us brownies before we arrived and being really communicative and welcoming. It was great not having a TV or wifi for a couple of days to unwind, and we also loved Mel's shop downstairs, and bought a lot! Would definitely recommend as a totally unique space and a lovely getaway which is still fairly near civilisation :)
Pippa2016-05-24T00:00:00ZThis loft was huge! Great space to hang out in with my friends. The kitchen was nice too for cooking breakfast. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a nice space to stay in for the weekend.
Joshua2016-09-13T00:00:00ZWe were not thrilled to ascend the flights of stairs leading to the loft, but we were pleasantly surprised when we opened that front door to an amazing apt.! Very often the pictures provided end in some disappointment, but not this "charming village loft". Well-appointed and supplied, and a fun location "downtown". Oh, and fresh eggs from the host's own chickens!
Richard2016-10-24T00:00:00ZThis was one of the best private homes I have ever rented, from the size and layout to the cleanliness to the location in a cute little downtown area. Melody went out of her way to be a great host--as she left snacks and drinks and breakfast items, including eggs from her own hens, for us in the fridge--while also ensuring that the AC was on so that we arrived to a comfortable home. The location was great--as we were able to use this as a jumping off point to other small towns, and just a short drive to Saratoga Springs, where we enjoyed the races. I would recommend this home to anyone looking for a place to stay in this area--and we will definitely be renting again when we go back to the area for our next trip to the racetrack.
Dave2016-07-25T00:00:00ZMelody's loft is amazingly large and so comfortable. It is very clean and beautifully decorated. The location is great and the town has everything. Melody was a terrific host. She met us when we arrived quite late at night. Don't forget to visit her shop which is so unique. I would definitely recommend Melody's place to family and friends. If I could give her a 10 star rating, I would.
Cori2017-01-04T00:00:00ZMelody's apartment was charming, clean and perfect for our stay! We thoroughly enjoyed our experience thanks to Melody. Highly recommend staying here. The town is quaint but has everything. Loved shopping in Melody's store downstairs. The apartment is better than advertised.

Honestly can't say enough good things about the space and Kristin was such a wonderful host. With the dining area, kitchenette and living room- I imagine it would be a great place to stay while skiing in the area.

Her apartment is private and spacious with lovely bedroom, fully stocked kitchen, comfortable bathroom yet a bit spare on lamps, rugs and tables which are coming in soon. Totally charming and set in a happy, bucolic section of Vermont. A quick drive to everything in the North Adams metropolitan area including Williamstown and Adams. Very nice host provides timely change of linens and trash emptied. All in all, I would recommend to public, family and friends.

I had to stay a few extra days at the last minute and Amy was very flexible and accommodating - thank you so much!!! Loved all the animals (dog, chickens, cat <3)
Ryan2017-01-12T00:00:00ZAmy seems like a nice lady who wants to take care of her guests- she left a nice note and baked goods for us to enjoy. However, the place is not heated adequately (freezing!) and was quite dirty. There was hair all over the sink as if someone had just shaved in it and not cleaned up after themselves. The bed sheets had hair on them and appeared unwashed. There were stains and grime everywhere and the place hadn't been swept or vacuumed. I hope that in the future she can take better care of it so that it can be a nice place for people to stay- the location is dreamy.
Rebecca2016-12-31T00:00:00ZAmy made me feel right at home! She left wonderful home-made lotions and chapstick as well as a gift card to south street cafe. Perfect place to stay - right near Bennington College. Much better than any of the nearby hotels.
Ryan2017-01-10T00:00:00ZAmy's place is nice and quiet. It's what looks to be a converted garage or workshop on a bigger property. It's across the driveway from the main house, where I assume Amy lives, but we never had to interact during our two-night stay. The good: Amy was very available via email/text to figure out the logistics of our arrival. She provided bagels, coffee and juice, as well as clean towels and locally made toiletry products. The bed is comfortable. The TV is hooked up to a Roku box and we were able to watch Netflix before going to bed. There's a selection of books on hand. The not so good: There is a smoke odor inside. The shower is weak. The doors don't lock (not an issue for us, but if you're paranoid ...) There's not too much in Shaftsbury, but you can easily walk to a convenience store, deli and local pub, which had good food and drink, and there is plenty to do in nearby Bennington and surrounding towns. All in all, for what we paid, it was an excellent value, especially considering what hotels in the area cost.
Brendan2016-10-20T00:00:00ZAmy was very knowledgeable, helpful, and available when needed. I would definitely stay again.
Andy2017-02-20T00:00:00ZI was visiting my son at Bennington College and picked Amy's place sight unseen. She shot me a text message a couple days before, made sure I knew where I was going, and what to expect. I was greeted by the chickens (and Amy's husband) and everything was as advertised: pretty rustic (grandpa would love it, grandma maybe not so much), cozy, homey, and nostalgic: reminded my of my aunt Artyce's old farm house in the woods of WI. Lotsa books and artsy decorations. It's just a couple minutes walk to Power's Grocery and Pangaea in North Bennington, and maybe 20 minutes to the Bennington campus. I enjoyed getting to hear the other parents gripe about their crappy chain hotels knowing I had found a quiet, funky little gem.
