Meadow View Cottage is everything it is advertised as and more! There is so much attention to detail that I literally felt at home. Everything is just where one might look for it. The owner was thoughtful and helpful and we hope to stay again when we visit Dorset!

Amazing stay!
We came to stay at Nicole’s for a family wedding nearby and absolutely loved it. The house is so cute, situated on a quiet and picturesque street, and was a perfectly cozy for a fall getaway. Our dog loved running around the expansive field in the back that backs up to a mountain that was popping with fall colors. The house provided the calm we needed for dealing with a chaotic family weekend!

Cozy Cottage Vibes
The host put a lot of thought into the space, with a cute gift of local maple syrup, a binder full of nearby things to do and restaurants, and overall the space was clean and well maintained. Nice historic location, we had fun walking around the town. This was a fun stay as we drove up for the solar eclipse and drove to our viewing area the next morning. Minus 1 star, because though the home did appear clean, there did seem to be a kitchen mouse. Made the property owner aware of this issue.

Lovely stay for a winter ski weekend
We had a fantastic stay at this very cute, clean cottage right in Dorset. A very short drive from Manchester and not far at all from a number of ski mountains, we enjoyed all the communication & recommendations from the host, Nicole. It's a very dog friendly house so the pups that joined us on our trip were able to go out back in the fenced in area, and the local streets/area provided great opportunity for walks. Would certainly stay here again & appreciate the cozy atmosphere that was perfect for 2 couples looking for a VT weekend getaway!

Perfect Retreat
We stayed for a lovely week over Christmas. The house is the best equipped rental I have ever stayed in - tons of little details (from spices to laundry soap to dog treats) and provisions to feel right at home. The fireplace provided a perfect place to warm up after a day on the slopes and the beds were super comfy. We can’t wait to go back!

Perfect location in Dorset!
My family of four enjoyed a lovely time at this clean and updated charming cottage. Beds are comfortable and large eat in kitchen. Our host Nicole was very responsive, but not intrusive. The location is walking distance to the Dorset bakery and the amazing Dorset inn (great dinners)! Easy under 15 minutes drive to downtown Manchester and 30 minute drive to Stratton. The neighborhood is quiet and we enjoyed walks around the area. Highly recommend!

Quaint Fully Equipped Cottage
We loved this place. I brought my elderly parents here for Thanksgiving with family who live in Dorest. Perfect for my folks because there are no stairs. It was close (walking distance) to our family hosting Thanksgiving and all the cute stores in Dorest. And Manchester is just a short drive away. Loved how the cottage bedrooms had their own bathroom, with the master bathroom having a large safe walk in shower. The kitchen (and the whole cottage) is fully equipped with everything you need and then some. It was super clean and so welcoming. Nicole was very responsive to my questions and requests prior to check and was more than accommodating. Highly recommend the place and will book again for future stays.

Quintessentially Vermont!
We very much enjoyed our stay. The accommodations were very tasteful yet comfortable. We had everything we needed to cook a Thanksgiving meal for family and friends. Our dog enjoyed the deck and small fenced yard. The property was within walking distance of very nice shops and restaurants and only 5-6 miles to all of the shopping and activities in Manchester Center. We hope to have an opportunity to stay again. Thank you, Nicole!

The description didn’t do justice to this property. Don’t be fooled by the outside, because the inside is beautifully and comfortably furnished. Gas fired stove keeps you warm. Great for dogs as there is a fenced in area just off the back door. Modern and fully equipped kitchen. Just one item I missed was a sharp bread knife. This is a peaceful place with a comfortable couch to chill on. The owner was helpful and considerate.
