A bonus room that doubles as a game room for our younger guests includes a foosball and air hockey table. The private master bedroom sits above the garage and has its own stone fireplace, sitting area, and is highlighted with exposed wood beams. The property includes VAST trail hiking, a fire pit, picnic area, and many places to sit and relax.

This is our third stay in this beautiful place and we are already planning next year. My 10 year granddaughter said it feels like home. There was no snow predicted but we enjoyed a lovely squall. We enjoyed lots of family time and wonderful fires inside and out. Matt is very responsive and accommodating. Love our Vermont vacation!!

A glorious experience
We loved everything about staying at Stone Walls. The house was clean and comfortable, and felt like a real home -- the kitchen, for example, was particularly well equipped. The garden is lovely -- a huge expanse of well kept lawn shaded by maples -- with a trail going off into a beautiful wood behind the house. Across the (dirt!) road is a rolling meadow with an extraordinarily beautiful pond -- and yet more beautiful trees. On top of all this the house manager was extremely responsive when we ran into a minor glitch. All in all, I would recommend the house in the strongest possible terms!

We all had a wonderful time. We loved the house. It was charming and there was plenty of space for our nine family members. It was the most well equipped place that we have stayed in. Our grandsons had a blast snowboarding at Okemo. Matt, the owner was extremely easy to work with. We definitely want to return!

Five couples had a lovely stay in Cavendish! The house is well appointed - linens, fully stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, clear instructions- you name it! Explored the area and neighborhood a bit. Fire pit was a bonus. Thank you for your hospitality. We would love to return!

Country Escape
Because all of the heavy rains during July and August, we encountered numerous road closures, bridge closures, business closures and reconstruction in the areas surrounding this property's location. However the house and property was unscathed by the weather events in the area. The house was exactly as described. Four bedrooms on the second level and a king bed on the third level. There is an expansive yard, great for the kids, multiple picnic tables with umbrellas, a large gas grill, and nice firepit surrounded by Adirondack chairs, hammock, apple trees, a blueberry bush and rock walls surrounding the property. The house is on the corner of 2 roads, but they were never an issue, there is a minimal amount of vehicle traffic as the property is quiet and fairly remote with only 1 nearby neighboring house that was occupied only on the weekend. The kitchen is well supplied with cookware, though we didn't find any pan covers, microwave, coffee makers, drip and Keurig, condiments and spices. There was plenty of paper goods, trash bags, etc. available. Groceries were available at Singleton's General Store, 5 minutes away and some restaurants were open in the area. The beds were very comfortable, and appropriate for our 7 adults and 2 young children. The owners provided details for nearby swimming holes that were enjoyed by our group. We found it easy to communicate with the owners and property manager via text and there were very quick to respond. We hope to return in the future.

Easy, Peaceful Retreat
From morning puzzles in the family room to afternoon reading in the hammock to star gazing around the fire pit at night, Matt and Carla’s home is the perfect place to slow down and spend quality time with the people you love. The home itself strikes a wonderful balance of design, history, and comfort. We’ve stayed in a number of rental homes through the years and theirs is hands down the most well-appointed we’ve seen. (They’ve truly thought of everything.) The location is perfect, providing quiet, space, and easy access to nature, but still a short 5-15 minute drive to grocery stores, restaurants, etc. Matt was incredibly responsive from booking to the moment we checked out. Again, they clearly go out of their way to make everything easy for their guests. At the end of our stay, my family and I agreed it was the most peaceful and relaxing week we’ve had in a long while. Truly cannot recommend a stay here highly enough and we hope to return again soon!

Simply Excellent!
After many disappointing years of searching for the perfect weekend rental in the Cavendish area for a growing family which includes a small dog, I believe we have found it. Super clean, spacious, & comfortable! A beautiful well maintained historical home with all the amenities (in & out) to make sure children safe & entertained & adults could relax! One uninvited guest on Saturday night was a bat who was safely caught & released outdoors! Thank you Kaplunas family & hope you will have us same time next year!

We stayed for a week and this property was just right for our family and friends. Hard to find rooms without bunk or twins, so it was great to have 5 bedrooms for all the adults. The property was great inside and outside, with plenty of space for outdoor games and lovely firepit. House was clean and well stocked. We took some suggestions and did the Bike and Brew tour, played disc golf at Okemo, and did some time on area lakes and swimming holes. Brian, the property manager was also quick to repsond to any concerns. If you are looking for a great getaway with a group, give this a look.

This Place is Awesome!
Our family of 5 stayed here with friends (a family of four) for a skiing trip to Okemo after Christmas. This place was perfect for the 9 of us! This house is amazing--I took notes (and some pictures) that I'll be using when I get out of the military and am able to settle down in our "forever home." This classic New England farmhouse is spacious, clean, and updated with exceptional taste. It was more than big enough for the nine of us, and an extremely cozy place to settle in after a day of skiing with the kids. I've already been sending the info to everyone I know so they too can plan a trip to this incredible destination!

We absolutely loved this property! It was a beautifully updated antique , New England home. The house was very clean and very spacious. There was plenty of room to spread out and the bedrooms accomodated 5 couples very nicely. The kitchen was stocked with many supplies, there was nothing we needed that we couldn't find! The hosts were easily accessible and promptly answered all of our questions. I would definately stay at this house again! Thanks again!

Matt was a great host - easy to communicate with and his home was a delight. The little ones enjoyed running up and down both staircases and playing in the game room. The home was the cleanest and the kitchen the best stocked that I have ever booked. Wished we could have stayed longer.

An Amazing Vermont Getaway!
This was our first Christmas in a VRBO and it was perfect! We arrived to a spotless, cozy home along with our married children and 91 year old mother. There were many sitting areas, bedrooms with privacy, a completely equipped kitchen, and gorgeous dining room. The stone house is located in a storybook setting. This will be one of our most memorable holidays.

A gem of a home away from home
Our family was so lucky to stay here for a long weekend. We travelled to VT for a family wedding. This spacious home allowed the 5 adults privacy as well as common spaces. It is immaculate and the decor is lovely. The grounds are great for outdoor activities. We wish we could stay longer and hope to visit again.

We had a lovely stay at this farmhouse for a long weekend. The house was very clean and we had everything that we needed. There are many small restaurants in the area with excellent service, we especially liked Murdock's On the Green and Crow's Bakery. It was a smooth check-in process and the owner's were also very responsive when we had a questions. We would highly recommend.

Green Mountain Gem
Stone Walls is a lovingly restored and tastefully furnished New England classic. There's much to love about this beautiful old house. We enjoyed cooking in the well stocked kitchen and sitting around the lovely, cozy dining table for dinners. The house has two well-placed fireplaces, stocked with dry firewood. The back yard is a perfect size for a kids' football game, swinging under the apple tree, even working (with good wifi) while enjoyign the fresh air. The trail (snow mobile trail) behind the house was just right for quiet strolls in the woods. The bedrooms were comfortable and inviting, and everyone slept soundly. The house was full of charm and the kids had an amazing time in the game room and hiding out in the "tower." The location of the home is very convenient to Cavendish, Proctorsville, and Ludlow. You can find pretty much all of your basics as well as a few good eateries within a 10-15 minute drive. The Kapalunas are very thoughtful and responsive hosts, and do a terrific job of helping guests to feel welcome. We hope to visit again soon!

Beautiful & Peaceful
We stayed for a long weekend at Stone Walls. The home was beautifully decorated and very clean. We loved unwinding by the fireplace at night after a day of playing in the large backyard and hiking the trails just off the back of the property. It is the perfect place for a relaxing, peaceful vacation. The mountains, the array of color from the trees and the night sky were breathtaking. We spent most of our time at the house, on the trails or going for walks, but did enjoy getting takeout for dinner at the local restaurants. The Kaplunas were very responsive, gave us lots of suggestions for local spots to visit and were very welcoming. I would absolutely stay here again!

Something Wonderful for Everyone
Stone Walls is as beautiful as it is comfortable as it has fun for the whole family. The beds were incredibly comfortable with crisp white linens. While the bedrooms afforded privacy needed for two families. All details were of the highest quality, from the enormous fire pit- including small tables for each Adirondack chair, to the great water pressure and excellent kitchen. But nothing was too prescious. We have 4 kids ages 9-18- they were all comfortable and had fun playing air hockey, finding a reading nook or running around the enormous yard. This is a wonderful place to stay summer or winter for an extended-family getaway.

Beautiful, spacious, relaxing
We (7 adults) stayed for a week on our annual vacation, and could not have been more pleased with our experience. The house is huge, with spacious rooms and the best-stocked kitchen we’ve ever had in a rental house. The owners were great to communicate with. They gave lots of suggestions for nearby places to go and local swimming holes to check out. There was a menu for Homestyle Hotel there as well which is NOT to be missed, the meal we had there was fantastic. Well detailed instructions on everything we needed to know made things like grilling and check in/out a breeze. The focal point is the backyard. Huge, with lots of picnic tables and a giant fire pit towards the back of the property with plenty of chairs. The shade (wooden tent) structure was smaller than we originally thought but awesome to decorate and hang out in! It would be a great hang out place for kids. Overall the house is one of our favorites we stayed in, in the 11 years we’ve done summer vacations. It easily accommodated all of us and made for a relaxing, serene get away. We would love to stay here in the fall and winter to get the full seasonal experience, and are talking about when we can book again!
