Wash ashore
Gail and Ollie are wonderful hosts, and for this sailor to wash ashore in such a lush landscape/garden setting, all I could do was take it all in. The views, the hosts par excellance, the fire pit, proximity to Champlain, great local eateries, all made this a memorable trip, worthy of repeating! Thank you!

Comfortable, beautiful setting
We stayed for 2 nights and found the rooms comfortable and lovely. We loved the sailing decor and learning about our host's sailing adventures. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and spacious. Lovely view of Mount Philo and the location was convenient to Lake Champlain, Mount Philo state park, Shelburne and Burlington (and the ferry to Essex, NY).

Wonderful accommodating hosts with a beautiful property! Loved the fascinating stories and conversation around the evening fire pit, and the helpful suggestions for touring this gorgeous area. Communication was frequent and easy. Shelburne Museum and Shelburne Farms were great local spots we really enjoyed, as well as the summit view at Mt. Philo State Park. Enjoyed local dining venues Backyard Bistro and Barkeaters and enjoyed both meals immensely. Toured the local towns, and drove to Ben & Jerry’s, Stowe and the Trapp Family lodge. Thank you Oliver and Gayle for a lovely Memorial weekend!

We had a very sweet time enjoying this property. It was very peaceful and quiet. The pool table was a wonderful surprise. Unfortunately, while we were there, it was raining so we didn't get to enjoy the Gardens much, but they were beautiful.

We were in town for a wedding and had the perfect stay at Olive's beautiful home. The grounds are so lush and lovely, making a tranquil respite during an otherwise busy weekend. Oliver was gracious and so friendly, but respected our privacy throughout our stay. I wish we had more time getting to know him. What a fascinating backstory his photos and artwork tell! We'll be back for sure.

Warm and friendly hosts
The accommodations at the Gardner home were exceptional. Although we missed the peak summer season, it was apparent that the property is absolutely stunning when everything is in bloom. The views from the bedroom and sitting room were beautiful. Can’t say enough good things about Oliver and Gayle, our hosts. Both are very interesting people and wonderful conversationalists. They provided useful insights about the area and we got to know a little about them in our short stay. Oliver was also very accommodating to our needs. We will definitely return in the future.

A special find
The location and comfort level of this lovely 1-bedroom were sincerely wonderful, the views serene, and Oliver and Gayle were hospitable and charming, and kept they more than kept our attention with stories of their adventurous and fascinating lives. We've stayed many times over the years north of Burlington and in the city, but did not have much experience with towns to the south. There are many special spots to visit -- Oliver's advice was on the mark -- and hidden gems to find on your own. The Gardner's home is a special spot for anyone seeking some respite, access to natural beauty, interesting dining, and country roads that both inspire and calm. Oliver and Gayle are among the best ambassadors for why the VRBO model works so well. Thanks again Oliver and Gayle.

Where do I start? Upon entering the property, there is designated guest parking right outside the home. We were greeted by the ever-pleasant Oliver who gave us a breakdown of our accommodations and the local areas to visit. The home is extremely clean and comes with anything you’d need for a few wonderful nights. The property is expansive with beautiful grounds and a great view of Mt. Philo. Oliver provides a binder with ideas of places to go and to eat. Our stay was only a couple days, but we made the most of it. There is nothing more beautiful than catching the sunset from Mt. Philo. Don’t stop at the first overlook when you go, make sure to go to the end and walk the short trail to the last overlook so you can see Lake Champlain. There is also a guest-to-guest book with great experiences detailed by prior guests as well. Our only disappointment was that we didn’t get to spend more time at the property and learning about the amazing life that Oliver has lived. The stories he shared in our short visit really makes one want to experience life at its fullest. We plan on coming back, for a longer time, to learn more about the area and to visit longer with Oliver, a clear bastion of knowledge! See you soon Oliver!
