Our new (built in 2008) luxury 3,500 SF timberframe home is located directly on Lake Rescue and close to Okemo and Killington ski areas. The views of the lake and mountains are spectacular and the location is wonderful all year round.
Our Bensonwood timeberfame house (also known as a post and beam house) is characterized by beautiful Douglas Fir beams, towering cathedral ceilings, and a wide open main floor. The Great Room is open to the Kitchen and Dining Room. This openness makes it possible for everyone to be included in family or group discussion or activities, no matter where they are on the main level.
The house is amazing and you can actually see the ski area from the deck. It took less than five minutes to be parked and getting tickets at the resort. After skiing was awesome with drinks watching the snow fall and we even got some ice skating in down on the like below the house. We will be back as often as possible.
We have visited this amazing spot in August of 2014 and had an awesome time. The house / cottage is extremely comfortable and has everything readily available you would need. The views from many of the rooms is stunning. The lake is great for swimming, paddling and easily accessible. The local area has fantastic biking and hiking trails for all levels, there is shopping nearby as well. An great pl....
This is a truly beautiful house in one of the best locations on Lake Rescue. The great room was the perfect place for our family to gather after a day of canoeing, kayaking and swimming in the lake, just a few steps away, and we also loved grilling our lunches and dinners on the deck with stunning views of the lake. The condition of the house was perfect - everything is essentially brand new. Our ....
The accommodations were exceptional, the area was beautiful, the town was charming. I highly recommend this rental.
Our whole family loved the Eckel retreat. It is every thing you could want in a VT. stay. We came east from Nevada and our daughter and family joined us from NYC for Easter weekend.. A blessing to spend it at one of the nicest spots in Vermont. While we did do some skiing we all hated to leave the house as it is so cozy and nicely appointed. Just looking out at the lake from the huge windows is so....
The house and surrounding area are gorgeous. We stayed there over Memorial Day weekend. The house is luxurious and spacious but still felt cozy. The lake was amazing. We loved this place and hope to return soon.
This place was amazing. Our young children had a great time. The place was super comfortable and very clean, the kitchen very well stocked (compared to many homes we've rented before), and all very modern yet cozy. We appreciated the many kayaks including the kid's kayaks. Even as a family of 6 we were all able to go out together. Owner was also very responsive. We'll definitely be bac....
House and location was amazing. Kitchen and house in general was well stocked. Everything you could want or need is provided. Great to have the three kayaks and the canoe to use. My family and I had a great time. Could not ask for more. I would highly recommend this house if you are considering visiting the Okemo area.
The location and the quality of this house is Fantastic. My family had such a great time enjoying the house, the lake and the area! Plenty of amenities and quality throughout. The swimming/kayaking/relaxing and beauty of the house made for a wonderful vacation! Owner very easy and efficient to work with - overall an A+ experience!
This is quite honestly one of the best vacation rental homes we have ever stayed in. Our family of five, with kids ages 14, 11, and 8, absolutely loved it. The house is comfortable, spacious, and has all of the amenities you could ever need. There are many different areas both inside and outside the house to sit and relax.The lake was the highlight of the stay for all of us. There were enough kaya....
This was our third summer staying in this beautiful home. It is located directly on Lake Rescue which provides for wonderful swimming, canoeing and kayaking. It's a gorgeous relaxing area. Yet, it's close enough to delicious restaurants if you can pull yourself away from this beautifully appointed home. The owners keep the home very clean and updated with all the amenities. They are easy t....
