I agree with what I’ve read in some of the other reviews, this property was even better than we had imagined. Artfully decorated, clean, cozy, and surrounded by natural beauty, the cottage brought us instant calm and relaxation. We made great use of the well-stocked kitchen, read and played games in the comfort of the living room, soaked in the tub, and slept peacefully in the charming bedroom. Even when it rained we were happy because we had the magic of the cottage to enjoy. We loved the privacy. We bird watched on the deck and walks to the pond were a treat. The location was a wonderful homebase for trips to Manchester, Shaftsbury, Dorset, Bennington and Bridgewater. We hiked parts of the Longtrail, swam at Hapsgood Pond, fly fished on the Walloomsac, ate at some great restaurants in Manchester, took advantage of Bromley Market up the road, and managed to get some shopping and genealogical research in as well. Communication with the property manager was very good, he was helpful throughout. It was an amazing week in Vermont, very much enhanced by our stay at the Honeymoon Cottage. We hope to be back, would love to see it in the fall, winter and spring!
