Brownsville holiday

We spent a wonderful few days here during 2008 foliage season. The cottage is extremely well equipped, very nicely furnished, (photos on this site are accurate) and great value, especially if there are more than 2 of you. It sits on a surprisingly large piece of land, and in the late afternoon we enjoyed sitting on the front porch surveying 'our' domain: incredible views without moving a muscle. ;)
There is a great selection of books/magazines/DVDs provided, along with most everything else you could possibly need and many thoughtful details.
One thing to note, if you are a large person, you will likely find the shower somewhat cramped.
The wonderful, secluded location means you will have to travel somewhat to find a restaurant for dinner, but the kitchen is absolutely fine to cook meals at home, or, in the right weather, the grill looks tempting too. On the topic of meals, we enjoyed the Windsor Station restaurant, but would not go back to Browns at the Ascutney resort.
We hiked the entire way up Mt Ascutney and were thrilled to be able to see the cottage from the top; however, would not recommend this 9 mile trek for the faint-hearted! Happily, you also have the option of driving up.
Finally, Balloons of Vermont deserve a mention for a highly memorable wedding anniversary treat.
Overall, I strongly recommend this cottage, not least because you will have your own little corner of Vermont, far from the foliage crowds.
