Dug's House: 4 br, pet friendly, deck w/ Mansfield views!

Please review the House Rules, Important Information, and About the Host sections prior to booking this home.

Privately nestled in a large, bright clearing amidst a stand of mixed northern forest, Dug's House is a beautiful and welcoming Vermont family home.
A wide porch wraps around three sides of the house (two sides are covered from the elements) and offers myriad seating options to enjoy the outdoors—long benches, Adirondack chairs, and even baseball seats from Vermont's own Centennial Field, home of the Lake Monsters—with loads of space to gather and grill. Just off the front porch, a firepit beckons for an evening spent under the stars and the large backyard hill is a favorite for sledding.
An L-shaped entryway is outfitted with a storage bench, built in cubbies, boot dryers, and lots of hooks for hanging your gear. The well-equipped kitchen boasts ample cupboards and counter space and an island with seating for four. An adjacent farmhouse dining table can comfortably seat up to ten guests for shared meals and game nights. Double living areas allow for family and friends to spread out—in one, a sectional sofa is perfect for kicking back in front of the TV, while the sitting room welcomes conversation with two leather sofas facing each other in front of the electric fireplace. Beautiful post and beam architecture and hardwood floors flow throughout the main level and plentiful windows allow natural light in and frame spectacular views out toward Mount Mansfield and Spruce Peak. Lovely antique statement pieces and local artwork add the perfect touch of Vermont character.
All four bedrooms are located upstairs and are named after favorite ski trails at Stowe, a sweet nod to a well-loved mountain. The primary bedroom has a queen bed, beautiful furnishings, a walk-through closet, and ensuite bathroom. The three additional guest rooms—two queen-bedded and one with two twins—share a full bath that we call a loo with a view. Thoughtful touches have been arranged throughout—vintage oriental rugs add color and warmth over the wood floors and throw blankets add coziness. A conveniently located powder room is just off the entryway on the main level.
Top bunks are not suitable for adults.
The home is private to you but please note that a tenant lives above the detached garage with a dog. Dug's House is named after Dug, the especially friendly resident Samoyed. He is white and fluffy and always smiling—Dug loves attention from everyone!
Pets are accepted at Dug's House on a case-by-case basis with pre-approval only.

Ideal Stowe location

The house was a perfect location for our Stowe ski trip. The location allows you to bypass the village to get to the mountain. However the village is about a five minute drive.The house was perfect size for my family and plenty of room for everyone. We loved looking at the mountain from the house. A four wheel or all wheel drive vehicle is highly recommended if there is any snow.vehicle is a must for winter if there is any

Fun Family Weekend

We stayed at Dug’s House last weekend and had such a wonderful stay. We met family. The house was perfect. It was much larger than anticipated and plenty of space. It was very clean and had everything we needed. You can’t beat the view! We could see so far away! It was a perfect Fall weekend. We also enjoyed the fire pit one evening and could see endless stars. Would stay here again and highly recommend to anyone.

Christmas at Dug’s

The house was perfect for us. We loved the rustic charm and the views it offered as it sits high on a mountain road. Kitchen was well equipped and lots of extra towels in bathrooms. The only thing I wish was different was that there was a real wood burning fireplace instead of electric.

Long weekend getaway

We had a great time at Dug’s. Two families of four with small children. House had so much room for us all. Outdoor space was great. Snowed while we were there. We’ll definitely be back.

Fall Weekend at Dugs

The property was clean and well suited to a full family trip with two families plus Grandma. The kitchen and dining area made for pleasant gathering space for cooking/eating, and the porch has an amazing view perfect for soaking in the Mt Mansfield Ridgeline or the star while the kids played in the yard. My one minor issue was that the mattresses weren't the most modern. Felt like for the price we're paid the property should at least upgrade from spring coil to memory foam.
