Winter Lore — A Secluded, Pet-Friendly Retreat Near Killington
Brought to you by GetAway
Welcome to Winter Lore, your perfect mountain escape tucked away on 26 acres of private Vermont forest in Mendon. Overlooking the peaceful Mendon Brook, this secluded retreat offers the ideal mix of comfort, privacy, and connection to nature — with the occasional deer or fox sighting just outside your window. Best of all, it’s pet-friendly, so your four-legged family members can join in on the adventure.
Inside, you’ll find a beautifully curated home filled with warmth and character. The main level features a bright, open kitchen fully equipped for home-cooked meals, a dining area framed by large picture windows, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace that sets the mood for memorable evenings together. Just beyond, the living room offers two plush sofas, a 55-inch smart TV, a writing desk, and a charming reading nook — the perfect spot to unwind after a day outdoors.
The home’s thoughtful layout includes three main-level bedrooms, each with a queen bed and its own smart TV, while the primary suite adds a private en-suite bath for extra comfort. Downstairs, the fourth bedroom features two twin beds and an attached full bath — ideal for kids or friends. The lower-level family room offers more space to spread out, complete with two sofas (one a sleeper), a 70-inch smart TV, and a shuffleboard table for friendly competition.
Step outside to enjoy everything Vermont has to offer year-round — from stargazing by the fire pit to soaking in the private hot tub after a day on the slopes. Located just minutes from Killington and Pico Mountain, and a short drive from Chittenden Reservoir, this home is a gateway to skiing, hiking, paddling, and endless forest exploration.
Winter Lore isn’t just a place to stay — it’s where every season brings a new story to tell, and where your Vermont getaway truly begins.
