If you have no need of the kitchen/laundry, you might take a look at my other listing, "Downstairs at the B.G.V." (not available in Dec. 2023). You might also consider booking both listings, to accommodate up to 9 people. In 2025 the house will be 150 years old! In those years it's been well maintained, but not renovated. The inside look is what the pictures show. It's primarily Vintage furnishings and kitchen. It's a step back in time experience, which I hope you will enjoy! Guest access Entrance to the apartment is through the main (shared) hallway in the front of the house, and up the stairs. Access to the apartment is private. Keys provided at check in. Other things to note The Guest Suite upstairs is furnished in a style ranging from the 60s to the 90s; vintage in some ways, with a few modern things as well. Parts of it go even further back like the claw-foot tub. The House, kept updated but never renovated, has been vibrant and welcoming for close to 150 years. Built in 1875, the Big Green Victorian is centrally located, making it ideal for those who just like to walk around and see historic buildings, churches, art galleries... The area has a diverse selection of restaurants, which are amazingly good, with offerings ranging from Thai at "Dusit Thai" to local craft beers and wines at "The Warehouse" and the "T-Bar". If pizza & subs are what you're after, try "Hoagies". If you are wanting Italian, then "Lago Trattoria" is where you'll want to dine. If looking out at the lake or sitting on the deck, then it's "The East Side Restaurant & Pub." Just up the hill on Rt 5 is "The Tavern" where you find friendly bartenders, great food and "Taco Tuesday" celebrated weekly! A short drive away, with an extensive menu and bar is "Vermont Pie and Pasta" or for breakfast or lunch, you might consider "Elmer's Cabin," "The Brown Cow" or "Newport Natural Cafe."
