NorthPorch Farmhouse | House in Rochester

4 Bedroom House in Rochester
This cozy, well cared for and well-appointed 1840’s two-story farmhouse is surrounded by National Forest Service land, and puts you in the middle of year round outdoor adventure or quiet relaxation. Hiking, swimming holes, mountain bike trails, downhill skiing, Nordic skiing and river tubing are within a 30 minute drive or less. The Town of Rochester, and its restaurants, cafés, bookstore, and antique shop is only a 5 minute drive.
Our house reflects much of what we love and look for most in a vacation rental. A space that is clean and uncluttered, but not devoid of character. A well stocked kitchen for making food and a large dining room table to share it with friends and family, cozy bedrooms with comfortable beds and quality linens, a living room with plenty of comfortable seating to play a game or watch a movie, simple but well-made antique or hand crafted furnishings, crisp, a front porch with a picnic table and a view, and a back yard for grilling and whiffle ball.
Guests will have exclusive access to the property. The main entry way to the house is through an unfinished space, which offers a place to take off your boots and store your outdoor gear before entering the main house. We ask that you do not go up the stairs to the second floor of the unfinished entry space. As with many old farmhouses in VT, there is an old barn at the back for the property. Guests should not enter it.
We have a no pets policy, and do not allow renters to bring their pets. However for those will allergies, please note that we do have a dog that does come to the house with us when we are there. He is a labrador-poodle mix (a breed considered to be hypoallergenic), and does not bother his owner who IS allergic to dogs.
Our cleaning fee covers 5 hours of cleaning. This is how long it takes to change and wash all the linens, clean the 2 bathrooms, and vacuum the whole house. It does not include the time needed for cleaning the kitchen as well. Guests are expected to clean up after themselves in the kitchen. This means any spills or splatters on the stove, counter, sink, cabinets, walls, or floor are wiped up. If it was not clean when you arrived, it is your responsibility to let me know. If the kitchen requires cleaning after your stay, extra fees will apply. Our cleaner does not always have the flexibility, especially on short notice or during the busy season, to stay at our house longer to clean a mess in the kitchen.
