Luxury Barn Apt. Near Middlebury,VT

The luxury barn near Middlebury is very remote and isolated in the tiny town of Lincoln within the Green Mountains and with a lovely view of Mt. Abraham. The space was clean and comfortable, the bed had nice soft sheets and a firm mattress, and the bathroom was exceptional with a nice deep stall shower and a heated floor! One drawback was that there was not a mini fridge and breakfast was not offered, so it was difficult to chill out in the AM and have a nice breakfast without going out. The barn is not really super close to Middlebury which is about 20 minutes away. It's closer to Bristol which is a charming little town with good food and nice shops. Try the Bobcat restaurant for a really fine meal. We were glad to have brought our four wheel drive vehicle with us as the terrain in late March was both muddy and icy and steep. If you go in the winter, this is a must. This area in the Green Mountains is so picturesque and the people are super friendly! On our way home east, we stopped in another quaint little town called Rochester and had lunch in the Rochester Café, one of those old, lovingly maintained General Store buildings with a soda fountain and school house lights hanging. The town also has a book store, clothing boutique and art gallery and the drive is beautiful along the river. We really enjoyed our stay in Lincoln and felt rested upon our return!

What a lovely and charming space, and such beautiful views! We really enjoyed our stay this past weekend at Christine's lovely converted garage. Comfortable, beautiful and very clean, with a lovely and elegant bathroom. Only minutes away from the little town of Bristol, VT, it's a really great location from which you can explore and enjoy the area. If you visit in summer, swim in the Lincoln River towards Bristol, or keep driving up Elder Hill Rd and take a hike up Mount Abe. Christine and John are just lovely and kind. I will be staying here again!

What an amazing place to stay!

Stayed here for three nights, and had a great time. Christine was a great host, full of good advice, and she made us feel very welcome. We borrowed the snow shoes and sleds, and on Christine's recommendations made full use of them. The house feels pretty remote - it's a five minute drive to Lincoln, and maybe 15 to Bristol, where there are some really good places to eat (Bobcat Cafe was my highlight, although a scone from Almost Home came close).

On a communication front, Christine could not have been more helpful or available. The barn was very clean and well decorated, and was exactly as described. I would recommend staying here to anyone.

Great place! Close to great mountains for hiking/snowshoeing. Bristol has great restaurants (Bobcat Cafe to be exact). Christine was a great host, offering advice and tips, respecting our privacy, and the luxury barn is beautiful, well-maintained and relaxing, as well as coming with amenities like snowshoes.

My girlfriend and I drove up from NYC for a weekend of skiing at Sugarbush. We left the city around 4 on a friday, so the traffic added a good hour onto an already long drive. Thankfully, our journey ended with our arrival at this beautiful luxury barn. Our hosts had gone to bed because of the late hour, but left us a friendly note and couple of biscotti cookies to enjoy with our morning coffee... a great touch, which went a long way to making us feel immediately welcome. The barn itself was comfortably furnished, had plenty of space, satellite tv, internet, and a BEAUTIFUL view of the property and surrounding wilderness. It was the perfect place to unwind after a busy day on the mountain. We had an excellent time, and hope to go back next year. I highly recommend.

The barn is amazing, it is warm, clean and comfortable, and Chrsitine was an excellent host. One feels at home there. The surrounding area is incredible, we stayed a couple of nights during the winter and managed to complete the Battle trail all the way up to mount Abraham with our snowshoes. We also had dinner in Bristol, where one can find a broad selection of good restaurants. Totally recommended!!

Christine was fantastic. Very nice throughout. Lots of great recommendations for places to go and things to do. She knows the area incredibly well and is very enthusiastic about helping out.

The apartment is gorgeous. Very comfortable, spacious and clean. The view has to be seen to be believed. Even if you didn't feel like leaving and exploring the area, it would be worth the trip just to hang out and read in such a great space. Highly recommended.

As other folks have mentioned, do NOT blindly follow GPS. (website hidden) maps attempted to take us across Lincoln Gap Rd, which is very closed.

Second time for us at the Luxury Barn Apt It's so, so wonderful, peaceful, tranquil serene and delicious! Don't hesitate to try it. Fantastique!!!

our stay at the barn was great- it was an open, immaculate, light filled space with everything we needed. we were greeted by some fantastic cookies and chocolates, which we enjoyed with numerous cups of tea and coffee. during our stay, we had a heavy snowfall, and christine made sure that the driveway was clear and safe, so that we could come and go, whenever we pleased. christine was as kind as ever, and extremely respectful of our privacy. the barn is in a very remote and beautiful setting, surrounded by woods, and very quiet. perfect for a VT getaway! thank you, christine!

We have known Christine and John for a dozen years, and they are funny, charming, and classy people with backgrounds in the hospitality business. Their home is private and beautiful, and when we are fortunate enough to be invited over, it has always been a delicious and aesthetically pleasing experience. Put a stay with them high on your list.
