Skyline Trail is a ridge walk linking three major peaks of the Worcester Range - Mount Hunger, Hogback Mountain and Mount Worcester. The trail is 8.9 miles round trip with an elevation gain of 2,511 vertical feet. This trail is heavily forested. Since it receives little foot traffic, it is a prime spot to see animals. There have been many moose sightings in this area.
The home is the first house after the Stowe border and is located in Waterbury Center on the "scenic byway." It's close to the Alchemist brewery (maker of top ranked beer "Heady Topper,"), Stowe Cider & Shakedown Street pub, Idlethyme pub, American Flatbread, Michael's on the Hill Restaurant, Ben & Jerry's Tour, Cold Hollow Cider Mill, Cabot Outlet and Danforth Pewter. In Waterbury, eat at Hen of the Wood, Gallus handcrafted pasta, or Prohibition Pig. In Stowe, enjoy an awesome meal at American Flatbread, Doc Pond's or Stowe Cider! Many markets and take out dinner nearby. We have jazz and new music at The Phoenix Gallery & Music Hall and lots of other entertainment options. Theater options abound in the summer and enjoy an outdoor concert every week in Stowe and throughout the summer with Vermont Symphony Orchestra at Trapp Family Lodge meadow.

The proximity- 12 minutes to Rte. 89, 10 minutes to downtown Stowe (house sits on the southern border of Stowe). 25 minutes to Stowe Mountain, 30 minutes to Bolton Valley, 45 to Mad River and Sugarbush. 3 hours to Boston,

Hosts Laura and Owen were outstanding. The house was beautifully cleaned and ready for us. The hosts provided us much important guidance - notably, the best approach on snowy roads - about the house and related to our stay in Stowe. They were always immediately accessible.
The laura is a great host. The house is very clean and beautiful. The only issue is the one bedroom is awkwardly located, but not a huge problem. Would definetly stay again.
We had an amazing stay at this beautiful home for a girls ski trip to Stowe! The house was spacious, comfortable, and had breathtaking mountain views. It was the perfect spot to relax after a day on the slopes. Laura, the host, was fantastic—super communicative and helpful throughout our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!
Couldn't fault this amazing property and Laura and Owen.Awesome huge house, isolated and quiet in a beautiful valley - but close to Stowe mountain and the towns of Stowe and Waterbury (car required). Amazing fire place and view, lots of king beds, good heating system and everything you would need to stay for a weekend, a week (or maybe even longer!) We did not want to leave and will be booking again. Above all, Laura & Owen went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. Knowing we were arriving late, they left delicious food, a fully stocked fridge and pantry and were amazing in communicating in advance and giving advice and recommendations and warnings about stormy weather, where to rent skis, best places to eat and drink, things to do when not skiing - everything! We cannot recommend this house more and I'm sure it would be equally as beautiful and amazing in the summer (if not more!)
