Updated Bigfoot Chalet is a pet-friendly, family-friendly oasis in the woods

Bigfoot Chalet is a nature lover’s oasis. As a guest at Bigfoot, you'll enjoy a cozy living room space with a fireplace (exceptionally comfortable sectional); an ideal setting for deep conversation, a great book or a game night. (Lots of books and games to choose from.)

On your arrival, you will find pancake mix and local maple syrup to enjoy during your stay, a selection of coffee, hot chocolate, tea, apple cider and dairy and nondairy creamers. A welcome binder will tell you everything you need to know about Bigfoot Chalet and offer suggestions of local activities, restaurants and shopping.

During your stay, you will cook in a full kitchen featuring cooking oils, spices, pots, pans, crockpot, toaster, juicer and more. After you've prepared a delectable dinner, you will enjoy it around a large rustic dining table with bench and chair seating.

You and your guests will sleep in three bedrooms featuring two queen beds, two twin beds, and on an overflow sleeper sofa in the den if needed.

Despite your majestic, remote surroundings you won't miss your favorite sporting events or television shows. Bigfoot features two televisions with Dish TV and streaming, a DVD player and a small selection of DVDs.

In the warmer months, you'll enjoy your morning coffee on the upper or lower deck or out in the yard in an Adirondack chair by the firepit.

On a clear night, you'll gaze up at the sky awed by the magnificence of the stars in a sky free of light pollution.

As a guest at Bigfoot you will explore two acres of land (both open and wooded) and many more down the dirt road in either direction. In the winter you will snowshoe (a selection of snowshoes are available), x-country ski, snowmobile, walk and ski at nearby ski mountains. In the warmer months you'll hike, walk, golf and kayak on nearby lakes.

If you are looking for a natural oasis in the woods you will find it in Bigfoot Chalet.

REVIEWS

"Location! Location! So close to ski areas and cute towns to explore. The house is nestled on a woodsy, quiet country road away from the hustle and bustle. Hop in your car and you are close to everything you need: skiing, hiking, biking, restaurants, grocery stores, shopping, etc. The house is extremely cozy, clean and welcoming! All the beds and mattresses were so comfy."

"Perfect little place. Awesome little cabin in the woods. Secluded enough for pitch darkness at night, but 15 minutes from a grocery store or gas station. We had three in our group but could easily do three couples comfortably. Nice big eating table. Awesome yard. Firepit. Could definitely see coming back here. We brought the motorcycles and explored what Vermont had, and it didn't disappoint. Great communication with host."

"Cute chateau and great location. This was our first trip to Vermont and we couldn't have asked for a better host or place to stay. Jeanne was great about communicating to suggest things to see and making sure we had what we needed. Even a later check out time. We will definitely stay again when we're out this way."

Cozy stylish home in the perfect location
The house was exactly as described and shown in the pictures. The location is PERFECT. About 10 minutes from Okemo with the cute downtown area with shops and restaurants. If it was in ski season we would be in heaven! The layout was so good for family/friends with the upstairs and downstairs bedrooms and the hosts had the home immaculate with a great eye for a cozy design and added features. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything a person would need- and a little welcome gift for the morning! The yard has enough room for the outside fire pit to socialize and the stars at night without the light pollution are beautiful. We loved the fact that we could bring our furry family member, it made the stay feel like our hosts knew that was important. With it being pet friendly there was not a single pet hair from any previous stays. Great outdoor deck area to sit with coffee in the am. The neighbors are close enough to feel safe, but far enough to feel like we had our privacy. Our hosts left very detailed instructions and they responded immediately to one of our questions when we contacted them. They truly made us feel like we were in a home away from home. We would love to come back again during the ski season or the fall with the foliage with the location and house setup perfect for two families. It was one of the nicest VRBOs we have stayed at. Highly recommend.

Couples weekend getaway
My boyfriend and I along with my cousin and her boyfriend had the best fall couples getaway. We went to some breweries and explored the town and came back home to Bigfoot Chalet our cozy little cottage each night. Grilled some steaks had and bon fire and played some board games. We did it all! Highly recommend the alpine coaster in killing on. Perfect place located very close to everything. We did bring our doggo he never ventures far from us especially in the dark. Only suggestion I’d give for anyone planning to bring their pup if your planning on hanging outside after dark bring a long leash or reflective collar it does get very dark with just the stars in the sky. Beautiful home with lovely hosts 12 out of 10 recommend!

Comfortable VT Lodge
My two cousins, two babies (~1 and 2 years old), two days, and me had a wonderful time at the property! It suited our needs very well and was incredibly comfortable. We spent a lot of time in the front yard, walking nearby, and exploring southern Vermont. There’s no cell service, but the wifi works really well. Jeanne was incredibly communicative when we needed her during the trip. Checkin was also super easy. We would definitely be back!

We very much enjoyed this house. It was very clean. The location is great being close to Bromley mtn and Manchester. The owners are very easy to work with and responds quickly to questions. We highly recommend this listing. We will come again.
