Theatre in the Woods was wonderful! Leslie was such a great host in offering dining recommendations and responding to every question! My husband loved watching sports on the big tv and my daughter loved having the Mac computer in "her" room. We came for skiing/snowboarding and loved it. Woke to fresh powder on Sunday-what a surprise for spring skiing. The kids enjoyed sledding right out back and we could watch from the porch. Nice to be able to walk to the hot tub and pool after a day on the slopes. Trails are nice and long at Mount Mansfield and enjoyed the restaurant at Spruce Peak-much better than just burgers and dogs!
We enjoyed the restaurants we went to-The Shed, Pie in the Sky and Cactus Cafe(good pork enchiladas and ribs!).
We would definitely visit again.

| We had a great week here in Stowe, and the kids loved being at Theatre in the Woods. They even tobogganed right behind the condo in the woods. Chatham is very flat so this was quite the thrill. I loved how close we were to the rec path and the ski slopes are only 8 minutes away! My big find was Papa's Soup on Moscow road (very close to the condo) They have terrific homemade soups with all the fixings for a very reasonable price, and it really hits the spot after a day on the slopes. Their bakery looked good too and the people were so friendly (the grandkids call him Papa, hence the name of the store)Theatre in the Woods is much more reasonable than other accomodations in Stowe and is very well-equipped. |

| We had a wonderful stay at theatre in the Woods. It was supplies with everything we could possibly want and was very cozy and clean. The only problem we had was regulating the heat so that we could make use of the gas fireplace. |

Homeowner Response:
Glad your stay was wonderful. The trick to regulating the heat is simply not to over do it. Just bring the thermostat to about 20 C (65 F) and leave it alone during the day. At night, I love to bring it down to about 55 F - I sleep so well when my nose is a bit cold!

| It was joy to have stayed here, we would surely come back! The weather was wonderful. We rode the gondola up to Mt. Mansfield where we had lunch, and we hiked to the moss waterfall, and they were both just beautifully amazing. We found this place more relaxing than most places. We went to The Von Trapp Family Lodge, and ate there. Also we went to Ben and Jerry's factory, and learned how they make the ice cream. Last but not least we went to the University of Vermont, and the bear factory. |

We had a truly awesome week at Theatre in the Woods! We definitely would come back in a heartbeat. Stowe is a nice, quite town. It's laid-back atmosphere is very relaxing. Our family enjoyed walking the rec path (at least I made it from town out to the resort). We took part in mini golf, golf at the Country Club as well as shopping (of course). We also took the gondola ride and ate lunch at the Cliff House (awesome view!) and rode the alpine slide, along with the bungee jump. We took a trip to the teddy bear factory and also to Canada to the Granby Zoo (a must see!). Everyone enjoyed the tv, dvds and especially the porch. The family enjoyed the volleyball & open space for hitting some baseball around. Gracie's, the Sunset Grille & the Depot St. Malt Shop were our favorite food stops, however we didn't find one eatery we didn't like. The Von Trapp Tea Room for lunch was a fav too. The internet was a treat since my daughter & I needed to check in work email frequently (unfortunately). We look forward to coming back again soon, or even trying St. Croix?!
All the best to the next vacationers staying at Theatre in the Woods! |

| The "Theater in the Woods" had everything that we needed for a comfortable family vacation. We especially enjoyed the feeling of being in a "treehouse" with the woods so close. The building was very quiet and the pool and tennis courts uncrowded. The compact three bedroom floor plan made good sense for our family of five. Leslie, the owner, was very attentive from start to finish. We made frequent use of the wireless internet with our own lap top. Overall, we had a wonderful experience in Stowe and the "Theater in the Woods". |

| I had the great opportunity to stay at the theatre in the woods during the biggest snow fall of the last many years. It was simply magical and experience that I will not forget. The place is wonderful and better equipped than any place that I have stayed. I recommend it highly and will be back at the next possible opportunity.It is also great no matter what the time or season. |

We spent a lovely week at your condo and, although it was in the 90s the entire week, it was comfortable with all the ceiling fans. When we were "at home", we lived on the great deck.
We were able to visit Shelburne Museum, Shelburne Farm, Ben & Jerry's,
Rock of Ages, a boat ride on the Lake,
Morgan Horse Farm, Trapp Family Lodge and Fairbanks Museum from the Theatre in the Woods.
Had a fantastic (and amusing) dinner at the Alpen Haus nearby. All the restaurants were great. |

| Clean and simple. Big window looking into the upper reaches of trees above a small couch: a great place in which to read. Marvelous screened-in porch with a dining table and chairs. Great location, near river, bike trail, many shops, the mountains and notch. Leslie even located a piano for me to practice on during the week (local chuch was quite accomodating). Her review books, reporting on restaurants and such, seemed quite accurate and had our agreement, thus inspiring me to write this with gratitude. This rental is a great value and one gets the satisfaction of renting from one who seems to care a lot that you enjoy your time. |

L- Please edit Thanks!! -Erik
I’ve been to Stowe almost every year of my life since my 7th birthday, except for the previous 5. I have missed those years because I’ve had 9 reconstructive surgeries on my feet during this time and have been unable to climb the almost 40 stairs to my usual unit. This past year I was able to go because I stayed in the Theatre in the Woods (6 steps I think). I love Stowe so much if you look up the town it speaks for it’s self, the only and best way I can describe Theatre in the Woods is to say that being 24-years-old and being unable to walk for the past 5 and a half years, has made me feel as though I have lost those 5 and a half years. When I left the Theatre I actually cried because I knew I had gotten one week back. |

| We traditionally spend our summer vacation at a house on the ocean and decided to try something different this year. We're glad we did. We have a family of 3 boys between the ages of 4 and 14 and everyone had a wonderful time. There was so much to do in Stowe - biking, mini-golfing, hiking, balloon festival, eating, Smuggler's notch, etc. The big screen TV, tennis courts, and screened in porch were major bonuses to enjoy after the day's activities. Highly recommended! |

I always dream of my summer week
in Stowe, and this was the best ever!
Biking (even in the rain), swimming
(even in the river!) and hiking with my
son and a friend gave us memories
we will have forever. The condo was
great - and with two 12-year olds the
Theatre was a great hit!
Thank you for opening this "home"
up to us... we will always treasure
this brief week in time...

This was the best rental condo we have ever stayed in. Leslie has done a great
job with this rental unit. She obviously cares a great deal about the comfort of
her guests. The beds, bedding, lighting, color-scheme, kitchen, utensils, etc.
And I forgot about the Theatre System!!!!
Leslie should write a book about how to own and operate a vacation rental
condo - other owners could greatly benefit from what she has done here!!

| Just returned to Manhattan after having stayed at Theatre in the Woods for 3 nights over MLK weekend...what an adorable condo! It is nicely furnished, with a fantastic surround-sound system and a gorgeous new kitchen that we really enjoyed cooking in! The pool area and hot tub are fantastic and great if you have kids (or are just a bunch of older kids like us!). The bedrooms are nicely decorated and the bathrooms are clean. The outdoor patio was so cute and would be fantastic in the summer. We really loved this condo, and hope to come back next winter! Thank you! |

| I give Theatre in The Woods 5 stars! It is extremely comfortable and conveniently located on Cottage Club Road. It's a 1 minute walk to the hot tub and indoor pool, which is a nice way to unwind after a day of skiing/riding. The location is minutes from major highways so it is easy to travel to places like Burlington if you're interested in the night life. I have stayed at other condos in this area, and I would say that hands down Theatre in The Woods was situated 10 times better. There is also a great outdoor deck for having some tea/coffee in the morning and just enjoying the fresh breath of Vermont. I think the drive/shuttle to Stowe mountain took about 10 minutes, and I must add that Stowe had the best conditions on the entire east coast for Thanksgiving weekend. My only regret is that I could not stay there longer. My trip was to short to boast all of what the Theatre had to offer, I'm sure I missed a lot. The owner was also very good about communicating with me on either things to do or the actual accommodations. I had such a positive experience dealing with her and if you are in question about where to say--I GIVE THEATRE IN THE WOODS THE HIGHEST POSSIBLE RECOMMENDATION!!! |

stayed here in March 2004, and had a great ski week. The place is freshly decorated, the sound and movie system is easy to use, and was enjoyed by all. The pub/restaurant at the bottom of the hill was excellent for the evenings when we were too tired to cook. Leslie, the owner, answered all my questions in advance, and all the answers were correct..ie. minutes to the hill, etc. The kitchen is very well equipped from several mixing bowls to a small cooler you can use to take your lunch to the chalet. We'd come back.

Loved the relaxing downtime! Didn't do much of
anything - and it was wonderful! Took long walks,
visited Montreal, did some Christmas shopping in
Burlington. And did a LOT of reading. Great.
All the amenities from home already here made the Theatre a cozy retreat and truly special. Thanks for the much needed quiet and downtime!

We enjoyed staying at your warm cozy place - and spent
quality time together with our family. We watched the
US Open Tennis matches from your equisite big
theater system - the sound is great! We had a good
time here.

We thoroughly enjoyed the coziness of this condo. The
location is great - convenient to everything. Can't wait to
come back! Beautiful scenery everywhere we look -
and the privacy of the Theatre in the woods is
wonderful. Favorite moment - jumping off the rocks into
the pools off the Stowe Path. Don, Cheryl, Nicole, and

Most special moment - our great dinner at the
'Stowehof Inn" - spectacular food with a view to match.
Spent most evening playing cards or enjoying the good
games in the condo - did go canoeing one day - and
even got a hole in one at the stowe golf park! Also -
drove thru smuggler's notch and went to the summit of
Mt Mansfield - outrageous view!

Our favorite moment - listening to the Vermont

the Von Trapp Family Lodge - What a perfect setting.
Condo is excellent - loved Pie in the Ski Pizza too! Even saw my first shooting star.

We enjoyed the condo. Very comfortable arrangement of
bedrooms for two families. Natalie (age 6) loved the bunk beds -
and swam in the pool everyday. Our favorite places to eat - Olive
Grove, Shed, and Thacher's Brook - excellent food at all 3. Loved
dessert at the Trapps Austrian Tea Room - beautiful views.

The 108 Grill was a nice surprise, as was Gracies, and
the Shed - it's hard to get a terrible meal in Stowe.
Loved the privacy of the porch (grin), it's the first time
we've stayed in a unit with so much personality. The Big
Screen TV saves the rainy days and the porch is great
for the nice days - you can't lose!

Highlight of our stay was watching the "Theatre-sized"
TV with surround sound. The theatre is so luxurious - it
made our vacation so enjoyable. And it is so so relaxing
here.

We came to attend and run a thyroid cancer survivors
booth at the Stowe "Weekend of Hope". During our stay
we worked at the health fair, went to Ben and Jerry's,
Cabots, Emily's bridge, climbed a mountain (sort of),
went out to eat, and enjoyed the serenity of the beautiful
mountains and scenery!
We snuggled by the fire, watched Spiderman about
52 times (my son's favorite), and relaxed in your
beautiful condo.
I truly want to thank you for your tremendous
generosity. The "Weekend of Hope" is so important to
us for many reasons. I am only 26 years old, my son is
5. My illness has taken so much of my time, money,
and energy! Thank you so much for allowing us to have
a family vacation that we never would have been able to
take.
I am writing in your guest book, sitting on the deck,
and enjoying the last few hours of this peacefullness.
This weekend could not have come at a more 'needed'
time in my life. We truly thank you and leave with much
encouragement and fond memories.
With Hope - Jaime Toth

This place was awesome. Very home like and cute to
stay in. We watched movies, visited Ben and Jerry's,
made home cooked food for once (no school dining
hall food), went back to school for Junior Ring Ball, and
watched more movies! Basically had a good time with
close friends.

We came to ski, ski, ski and watch movies! Success on
all counts.
Had a great time, thanks to Leslie! She is an excellent
host. Lots of nice touches in the place that you wouldn't
find in a normal condo. She's obviously thought about
her guests.
And if you are looking for restaurant recommendations -
get the scoop from Leslie. She recommended places
to eat, to rent equipment - even to get groceries.

We rented this same condo 2 or 3 years ago. What a
change - and all for the better. I remember it was very
beige and unfriendly. You have made it very welcoming
and cheerful. We enjoyed all the DVD's - and had a
great skiing week. Thanks - Celia

Hi! I had a really great time here. Last time we got this
condo it was drab, but it is amazing what a little paint
can do to a place. The theatre is really cool! I like your
DVD's. Liz
PS: Great shower curtain in 1st Bathroom.

Really quite nice here, and the (rather impressive)
entertainment center is quite simple to operate. One
thing .. a soap/shampoo holder in the first bathroom
would be nice - perhaps just one of those things that
hangs from the shower head?

Happy Thanksgiving!
What a wonderful long weekend! We had lots of snow
and the kids had a great time in ski school, sledding
and enjoying your lovely town.
We kept a close eye out for moose but unfortunately -
no sightings!
Your condo was truly a home away from home. Thank
you for taking such care and love in furnishing it. It was
perfect - we will be back! Thank You - Suzzanne, Jerry,

Hi Leslie and Victor, Just a note of thanks for the lovely accomodations. We thoroughly enjoyed the two weeks. The State-of-the-Art Sound System certainly enhanced our holiday. It is a holiday we will cherish for many years. We really enjoyed the deck and the swing too. All of these things contributed to a most enjoyable stay. God Bless.
