Who it suits
Multi-family groups of up to 16, and dog owners, who want a village base rather than a slopeside one: Magic and Okemo are the closest mountains, Bromley is under 20 minutes and Stratton is a longer drive. The loft suite gives one family its own floor, and the game room and playroom keep kids busy. The house has close neighbors, so it’s quiet after 9 pm.
