Family-friendly vacation rentals in Colchester

Antique home with fenced in yard, updated bathrooms and appliances, and indoor hot tub was perfect for my family of 5 plus dog. We appreciated being a little outside of the hustle and bustle of Stowe on a busy tourist weekend, but still accessible and allowed us to explore many of the trails, breweries, restaurants, and farm stands outside of town, which was great and a more authentic Vermont experience. Check out Sticky’s to learn about and sample maple syrup and homemade ice cream and take in some beautiful views.

Went for a winter getaway with the family and it was the perfect stay! Was able to bring our pup which was a plus. The facilities were amazing as we enjoyed a little snow shoeing in his backyard, the amazing hot tub in the snow, and the fenced in backyard to let the pup explore. Highly recommend

Beautiful home, as described. Nice personal touches with towels and mini shampoo/conditioner. Kitchen is large and has most every appliance you would want. Caretaker does come in twice per day but is friendly and unobtrusive. You do need AWD/4WD to access the house.

Had a great ski weekend at Dino's place. The house is spacious and fun to explore. Handled a big group well, and the hot tub was a treat.

Incredible space - only complaint is we didn’t rent it for a week! Luxe details - the beds, the towels, even the smallest thoughtful details made it extraordinary. Jen nailed it, 10/10. My family agreed it was one of the most relaxing, comfortable weekends we could’ve experienced. Truly special. Thank you to Jen for taking the time to create such a wonderful space for guests to enjoy.

We really enjoyed our stay. This is a beautiful location and home, and is setup to make you feel at home. The host was also extremely responsive which was greatly appreciated.

Home away from home! Susan was a fantastic host. She was very responsive and communicated quickly. This home was perfect for our group of 6 and it was extremely cozy! This was our first time in Vermont and it definitely exceeded all of our expectations. If you looking for a pleasant place to stay with amazing views, look no further than this adorable Airbnb! We skied in Stowe, toured the Ben and Jerry’s ice cream factory down the road and enjoyed some live music at the ZenBarn. I would highly recommend this property! We hope to visit again soon :)

Home now after a couple days at the cabin. Feeling fully rested and can’t express enough how much we needed this getaway. Ago and Marty go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and provide you with everything you could need to relax and have a great time. We will be coming back here. Hopefully soon.

Super worth! We came here last week and loved it so much, we came this weekend too! Good dining recommendations from Daveo. He even saved us when our car was stuck in the snow! We truly appreciate his help. One million dollar view, one million points recommend! We'll come again next ski season!

This is a great house to stay in. There's a lot of space, places to sleep, sit and relax, eat, watch tv, play games, work, read, cook. Plenty of hot water.. Very private, although in a neighborhood. Nice back yard area when not covered in snow, looking up at the mountains behind. Sheri is top notch. Easy to reach, super friendly and helpful, easy going. We came at the tail end of a snow storm, but the driveway was cleared enough to get our car in and then Sheri worked with us to make sure everything was cleared before we had to go out the next day. Easy walk into the cute town of Bristol. Handful of nice shops (books, games, art, crafts, gifts, toys) and restaurants: Wokky's--ok Chinese/great staff; Minifactory--out of sight coffee/biscuits/sandwiches/fresh ingredients/lot of gluten free; Cubber's--locals' joint/excellent pizza/sandwiches; Farmhouse Chocolates--superb fresh organic truffles, bars, caramels/chocolatier is wonderful. Easy drive to Mad River Glen, Sugarbush for skiing.

We had an absolutely spectacular time staying with Gerette! Her beautiful cabin was everything we hoped for and more. Our golden retriever had the time of her life bounding through all of the snow!

Excellent location. 30 second walk to grocery store, and very close to shops and restaurants. Easy drive to Stowe. Definitely a bit of road noise, but not a big deal for us. Thanks for a comfortable place and a great stay. Would definitely return.

Claudia’s cabin was exactly as described- a private little cabin in the woods. The house was adorable, cozy, and close enough to Stowe for skiing (about 25 mins to base). The only minor issues I had were the use of the beautiful soaking tub (unusable due to water pressure/temperature), the temperature of the first floor bathroom( cold), and the amount of dog hair throughout. Disclaimer, I travel with my non-shedding dog so I’m not used to seeing dog hair on my clothing, and perhaps it was the previous renter who had a long haired shedding dog, but it was everywhere- couch, beds, cozy chairs, floor. Came home with hair covered clothing. There’s a sign by the door that says “no outfit is complete without dog hair”! These issues were not enough to complain to Claudia about, because as I mentioned - minor- everything else was spot on. She even had snacks in the fridge. Do bring extra toilet paper and paper towels if you book. I couldn’t find any. Otherwise, great stay.

We’ve stayed here multiple times now and it’s always a great smooth experience

We had a wonderful stay during a ski weekend to Jay Peak. The house is clean, comfortable, and adorably designed. The kitchen is well-stocked. The living room’s gas stove and board game selection provided good ambiance. Very straightforward check-in and check-out. Lovely surroundings all just 20 min. drive to Jay! Thanks Beth!

Genevieve was a fantastic host. Goes above and beyond to ensure guests are welcomed. Her place is immaculate, fully supplied with almost any amenity you need. Location was easily walkable to downtown, the water and trails. My husband, dogs & I had a very relaxing weekend and felt right at home. Highly recommend.

Chad was an incredible host! He was extremely accommodating with any requests we had. The views from his place are breath-taking! We enjoyed snowshoeing from the backyard onto trails in the woods. I fell in love with his cat who visited daily! He kept the driveway plowed and salted in a timely fashion. We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend his place!

PERFECT winter getaway! The location was amazing…our room had a wonderful view of the mountain, pool and hot tub. The resort itself was beautiful-great staff! Nice shops, excellent dining and bars! And, of course-snowboarding! Will definitely return! Can’t say enough about Stowe Mountain Resort! AWESOME!

Extremely nice cabin, very recently renovated. The owner has a keen eye for organization, everything is neatly placed where it should be. Linens are clean, beds were super comfortable. Amazing stay, thank you Cathy

Rebecca is a wonderful host! She was very welcoming, flexible and stayed on top of our questions. The apartment is great. It’s filled with character; there are so many captivating books and vintage decor items worth a look! It’s even nicer in person. Quick drive to smugglers notch, bolton valley and skiing in Burlington. If you’re staying here, you must visit poorhouse pies!

The condo @ Jay Peak was the perfect base for our family skiing vacation, which provided amazing ski-in/ski-out access to everything Jay Peak has offer. The condo was extremely clean, well furnished, and a top notch location. Susie was a great host, and we look forward to staying at the condo in the future!

We love our stay. Kitchen was well stocked which made cooking easy. Bathrooms were spotless. Kids loved the games. TVs were huge and we enjoyed watching movies after a long day skiing. Very convenient to ski Stowe. The pool, hot tub and sauna at the community center were great!

Great host, super responsive and helpful. the house was perfect. will stay again on next ski trip!

Great place to stay for a ski trip with 8 people! Was able to fit all of us comfortably. Location is close to town and Stowe resort. We took full advantage of the fireplace. The parking area and walkways were plowed and shoveled every day it snowed. Very comfortable Airbnb.
