Historic Rideout 16m to Okemo Walk to Town

A @Vermont_Escapes property - Escape to Vermont with us!

New Jacuzzi hot tub installed July '23.

Escape to the historic Rideout House, a 200-year-old property listed on the national register of historic places. Immerse yourself in the rich history of this property as you step inside its doors. This expansive 6-bedroom, 6-bathroom home boasts 4,500 square feet of living space spread across 2 and a half stories, perfect for families who want to vacation together yet still have their own private spaces.

The living room, featuring wide beam reclaimed barn wood floors, welcomes you to this charming abode. The spacious and well-appointed kitchen provides plenty of light and connects to two dining areas, allowing ample space for large groups to gather comfortably.

Step outside and discover the tranquility of the backyard, where a quiet private stream and firepit provide a perfect spot for relaxation. The adjacent Cold Spring Brook Park, recently restored by the community of Weston, provides additional outdoor recreation opportunities.

Located in the heart of small-town Weston, the Rideout House is just a short walk from the world-famous Weston Playhouse and Vermont Country Store. Take a short 16-minute drive to Okemo Mountain or the town of Ludlow for even more entertainment options.

This home sits on the foothills of the Green Mountains, with Okemo (16min), Magic Mountain (11min), Bromley (17 minutes), and Stratton (41min) within easy reach. Hiking enthusiasts will delight in the endless trails nearby, while Wantastiquet pond, just a 5-minute drive up Lawrence Hill Road, provides opportunities for fishing and boating at the nearby Wantastiquet Trout Club.

Foodies will appreciate the farm-to-table offerings in nearby Weston, Londonderry, and Ludlow, with an array of innovative, delicious, and extremely fresh meals. Don't miss out on nationally recognized Grandma Miller’s bakery, just a 15-minute drive away. Summers (May-Oct) bring the local farmers market to Londonderry, adding to the array of culinary delights in the area.

Come for the winters, stay for the summers and fall; Vermont has so much to offer. Book your stay at the Rideout House for an unforgettable vacation experience.

Vermont stay
All in all we had a nice time in VT. The house was cool. Very interesting and Lots too explore. We enjoyed hanging in the main living room and enjoyed watching movies with the kids and playing music. Super close to the Vermont country store, which is why we stayed there.

Spacious home in a nice location
Our extended family of 15 enjoyed our stay at The Historic Rideout. The house is spacious and is nicely equipped. It is in a nice quiet location with a small waterfall and park across the street which we used for a family photoshoot. The owner was very responsive to our questions. The owner provided a lot of information on the house and the area. The Vermont Country Store was a 5 minute walk away.

Great spot!
The house is fantastic, and in a great location. Despite all the floods the week before everyone on our golf trip had a great time. Just be cognitive of the neighbors at night as our small group didn’t realize they are right next door. David the host was great the house is awesome and everyone had a fantastic time! Would love to rent again with my wife and son!

Amazing
We really enjoyed staying here.. Great property that has got a lot of character in it. The highlight of this place that I really liked is the campfire set up beside a small creek. I definitely recommend staying here. Last but not the least, the host was prompt in responding to any questions or concerns I had making sure the check in and check out process was hassle-free.

Great place
This house was more than large enough for 15 people (8 adults, 7 kids). Very short walk to town and 15 minute drive to Ludlow. The house itself is fantastic! Rustic floors and lots of natural light. Two streams, one in back next to fire pit with great view of surrounding hills and foliage, and another stream in front across the street. The property owner was very easy to work with and responsive.

Excellent ski weekend
We had a great 2 night stay for 8 people up for the weekend to ski Okemo. Check-in process was very smooth and we had just the right amount of communication with David. The house itself is truly unique and great for large groups (likely too much house for 8 people) and only 15 minutes to the lift. Would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a convenient ski weekend or stay in southern VT with family and friends.
