Mount Harmony Farm Guest House
Mount Harmony Farm Guest House is a charming 2-story country house in an earthy
setting, with privacy, natural beauty, and easy accessibility. This peaceful, unique Guest
House centrally is located in Vermont's Northeast Kingdom, and is a wonderful place to
slow down, unwind and spend time indoors, or out in nature. The private evergreen
woods behind the Carriage House are thickly carpeted with fragrant pine needles. The
Guest House looks out over the West Pasture and vegetable gardens. In the summer
you can hear the woodland creek, the spring peepers and the frogs in the pond.
There is a Great Room upstairs and another one downstairs. All rooms have thermostats for the baseboard
heat. Upstairs are 2 Bedrooms, 1.5 Bathrooms, a Kitchenette and the Great Room with its very large picture
window facing the mountains. The breakfast nook upstairs is outside one of the bedrooms -- great for your
morning coffee; especially if you like breakfast in bed. One bedroom has a Queen-size Bed; the other
Bedroom has a King-size Sleigh Bed. In the upstairs Great Room there is a built-in Queen-size Bed off to
one side of the Picture Window (this is the bed most people vie for), as well as a built-in Captain's Bed off to
the other side of the picture window.
The downstairs Great Room has a full-size stove and oven, full-size refrigerator, and double kitchen sink,
wood kitchen island, plus a wood stove (we supply plenty of firewood for up to a week). There is a

Area Offerings: This vacation house adjoins the VAST Trail, and is near many areas with outdoor trails (skiing, hiking,
snowshoeing, horseback riding, mountain biking, Nordic & Alpine skiing, etc.), and many pristine ponds and lakes (ice
fishing, swimming, etc.). Several hiking, swimming and fishing places are within an easy 7- to 15-minute drive.
There is a beautiful Walden-like walking trail around the corner which has a fairly private pond within in a short walk.
The world-renowned Bread & Puppet Theater is only a mile away, with daily performances in the summer and musical
events on the weekends. In the warmer months there are a number of Farmer's Markets (with Crafts, Artisan Breads
& Cheeses, Fresh-Picked Produce, Plants, and often Performers) in the area (including Craftsbury Common and St.
Johnsbury). Also nearby are Craftsbury's Outdoor Center, Burke Mountain and E. Burke with their many activities,
trails, and Kingdom Trails for summer hiking, and mtn. biking with world-class events, and great eating spots.
