Winter Getaway
Had a great time staying at Charles’ place. My kids (5 and 3) loved the air hockey table and the front yard allowed for some great sledding. The location was exactly what we were looking for with easy access to Bromley, Wild Wings, and Manchester for outings. Would definitely come back.

Great house for a larger group
The owner was very easy to communicate with. Things were labeled at the house and instructions were very clear. The large kitchen and living area was exactly what we needed. The kitchen is fully stocked with anything you might need. Plenty of sleeping space. Lower level bedrooms don’t have a bathroom, you have to go up a level. Very minor inconvenience, was happy to have the 3rd bathroom overall. Downstairs space was great for the 18 year olds. Check in/out process was very easy. The trash process was by far the most convenient we’ve experienced in all our years of renting houses. There is a shed that has many trash and recycle barrels to accommodate the larger groups.

Great stay
This was our second time staying here and we were just as pleased as last time. Ample space for our group of 12 to spread out and to congregate when needed. Half of the group spent time skiing at Okemo, but the other half was happily occupied on the grounds and in nearby Manchester. We may be back for a third time next year!

Great family friendly house
We stayed at the Littlebranch House with 3 families and skied at Bromley over NYE. The house and location were great, easy to get to the mountain and Manchester. We stayed in and cooked several nights, the house had all necessary cooking utensils. The downstairs room with the air hockey table and TV kept the kids occupied while the adults could enjoy sometime upstairs. Definitely would recommend! Charles was a pleasure to communicate with and very helpful.

Fantastic house, great ski location
The property exceeded our expectations. Very clean, well updated. It was extremely comfortable for 12 people/4 families of all ages. The layout was great with a nice wide open common room and kitchen. Nice spaces for some to get away for a little more quiet (or noise). The location was just right for nearby ski mountains. Will definitely stay again.

Great stay
Perfect place for a small family gathering. We appreciated the two spacious gathering areas, and that the bedrooms were all off to the side away from the main spaces. Everything was immaculate. We hope to be back again!

Better than the pictures!
We booked this house for a ski trip with friends to Okemo. This home had more than enough space for our group of 12. Host was thoughtful, responsive and provided us with everything we needed for a great weekend. We wouldn’t have changed a thing! Highly recommend.

Perfect getaway
We very much enjoyed our stay at Littlebranch. It’s a private and secluded. Living area and kitchen are very spacious. A short drive to Okemo and Bromley ski resorts as well as Manchester town. Thank you for an opportunity to stay at Littlebranch.
