Owner description:
Welcome to Vermont's Mad River Valley, where many come for the mountains but stay for the authentic experience the Valley offers all year long. Tucked between two legendary mountain resorts, Sugarbush and Mad River Glen, it's no surprise our town of Waitsfield was voted best ski town in the East by Outside Magazine. The Valley is breathtaking and easy-going all at once, yet rich with diversions for every taste. Best of all, we've got an uncanny ability to make you feel welcome, no matter where you turn. The Mad River Valley – our vibe is hard to define, and impossible to forget."Well known as a winter skiing destination — it is home to the sprawling Sugarbush resort and 'ski it if you can' Mad River Glen — the valley reveals itself in warmer weather, when history, culture and a hyperlocal food scene come to the fore."- Kathryn Matthews, New York Times

Owner description:
The Skinner Barn is a beautifully restored historic dairy barn built in 1891 by the Daniel Skinner family. Of classic post and beam construction, it offers a special environment for educational classes, cultural events, parties, and receptions. Flanked by the majestic Northfield Ridge to its east and the mountains that host the Sugarbush and Mad River Glen ski areas to its west, The Skinner Barn offers a quintessential Vermont setting.The upper floor of The Skinner Barn has been restored with loving attention keeping the historical character of the structure intact. This open space, originally designed for hay storage, is now used as an assembly space for a wide range of functions from weddings & rehearsal dinners to theater camps, theater productions, dances and cabaret performances.

Owner description:
The Joslyn Round Barn was Built by Clem Joslyn in 1910. Clem eventually sold the farm to his cousin Ralph, who spelled his last name with an “i” (go figure!). It was used as a dairy barn from 1910 until 1969, when Marge Joslin said to Ralph, "either the cows go or I go." Marge (and Ralph) stayed until 1986 when Jack and Doreen Simko bought The Round Barn Farm in March of that year. They spent eighteen months restoring the farmhouse into a seven guestroom Vermont inn, then turned their attention to the Round Barn.
