Lovely, cozy condo! Very clean. We had everything we needed. Spacious covered patio/deck with pretty woods view, but we were in town for a special annual event and were in the condo only at night so didn’t get a chance to use it in the cold temperatures! The two main bedrooms are a little tight, but didn’t bother us at all, and the closet space with shelves helped make it work. Would definitely stay here again. The only disappointment was that the coffee maker hadn’t been cleaned since last occupied.

Was it a scam? The "host" informed us weeks after our reservations that the water was not potable...per a "Vermont law"- not true- a fabircation; and then a few days before our stay, we were told that the ammenities (pool, spa, PLACE TO GET DRINKABLE WATER! were all closed down. Notified VRBO customer service wo said they would take care of it and we NEVER HEARD BACK! We have received no refund or notification of any kind.

Stowe
Great acomidations and comterble bed. The only issue was that we couldn't check in until four, and the office closed at 4. I had to call the answering service and get the code, which was annoying. Same deal with checkout. Also, there was no wifi.
The interior was a bit tight for 5 adults. Bedrooms didn't have much elbow room. Kitchen was similarly snug. On the other hand, the large covered deck was a big plus when the weather allowed!
As far as the condition of the unit I'd say it was clean but a bit dated. Bathroom vents were inadequate and noisy. Knobs were falling off in a few places. No serious issues.
Check in (after hours) was simple though they neglected to provide the WiFi password and wouldn't provide it over the phone - I had to go back to the office in the morning to get it.
The water situation is annoying. They provided a one gallon glass jug which could be filled near the pool across the way - we were refilling twice a day. Hopefully they'll come up with a better solution by next season.

Cozy stay & great location
My family of 5 really enjoyed our stay at this cozy 3 BR property in Stowe. Its location was roughly 10 mins from the slopes and it was centrally located to just about all the food and shopping options in town. The apartment was easy to access at the front of the building, which made loading and unloading much easier. It was also very close (walking distance) to the pool building when you cut across the parking lot, which made my kids happy. Despite it being in a complex with multiple units, it was extremely quiet. We had a fun & relaxing stay and would definitely return.

Great Stay, Convenient to Alchemist, Stowe Village, and Mtn
Great location and property. Location is definitely convenient to the Alchemist, and easy to get into town or up to the ski area. Neat and clean inside, beds all comfortable, as were the couches. Amenities all as advertised, the pool, hot tub, gym, and laundry were all just one building over, so easy to get to. Only thing to note is that if you want to do laundry, there is not a change machine so you should plan to bring quarters (that's a complex-wide thing, not specific to this unit).Overall, a great choice.

Great Location, Get What You Pay For
Stayed here for a summer trip. Great location. Nice view with huge covered deck. Felt very private. Apartment is easy to access and close to pool and laundry. A/C was very noisy but we only needed it during the day when we weren't there. Very dusty fans but otherwise clean. Check in process wasn't very clear. I recommend calling the actual resort to arrange key pick up. Also would have been nice to know in advance about the Do Not Drink restriction at the time of our visit so we were better prepared. 7/10, would stay again.
