Bathrooms Galore!
We were very happy with the house. My family was very happy that most rooms had their own bathroom attached. This was helpful when mixing young people and seniors. The house was clean and comfortable. Perfect for our family gathering. We played games on the front lawn and board games in the diningroom, took long walks and even went skiing. We had a great time.

Perfect spot for big family getaway
We had a very large (30+) family reunion group looking for a shared house in Vermont. The Battenkill Valley Mansion was the perfect fit. The grounds and shared spaces were a great for spending time together with family members from ages 3 to 70+. Melissa and the Wilburton team were incredibly helpful - not just with the rental process but also with great tips for hosting in the space and help with the general Manchester area. The rooms are spacious with plenty of bathrooms. And the kitchen/dining room were perfect for catered meals. We loved having access to the Wilburton’s pool and grounds too. I really don’t think we could have found a better spot for our group in the whole state!

Just what we wanted
This big house worked extremely well for our family reunion. We had 27 people total. There was enough room for us to cook together, eat together, gather as a big group or in smaller conversation groups. We found a good place to work jigsaw puzzles, too. Wifi worked great. Lots of activities in the area. Nice to be able to use the pool and tennis courts at the Wilburton. The only drawbacks were that the house is a bit tired around the edges in a few places and it was too buggy in the evenings to enjoy the outdoor tables, fire ring, and gazebo. But overall, we had a fabulous stay. Thank you, Melissa!

BEST 60th BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION WEEKEND EVER!
Wow! Our stay this past weekend at the Battenkill Valley Mansion was beyond my expectations. From the moment we entered the house (all lit up and warm for us) until we left every single on of my friends and family could not get over how spacious , clean and perfect it was for this “party”. We sang and laughed and ate and drank in the large, comfy living room. We danced and played games in the banquet room. We sat down for dinner together (all 25 of us at one time) in the cozy dining room prepared in the kitchen. All of my guests commented on how comfortable the beds and bedding was. The house has everything we needed. We all want to find a reason to come back.

Fabulous destination
This Manse was ideal for our group of friends and family. Felt safe for kids and had great privacy for couples and families. The kitchen could use a wee bit of attention; dishwashers were wonky and ovens were uneven. The property managers are fabulous; very attentive, available at all times, and we were gifted some amazing loafs of bread from the farm.

Lovely Family Gathering
My extended family of 24 all enjoyed our first gathering since the pandemic at the Battenkill Valley Mansion. The spacious house and grounds made our multigenerational group visit easy and flexible. We were able to cook in the extensive kitchen; play games, do yoga, and puzzles in the ballroom; and chat in the huge living room. We built a fire at the fire pit and the hardy among us were able to spend a day and evening outdoors, roasting s'mores and catching up. The many bedrooms provided space for everyone. All in all a great visit, we can't wait to come back.

Awesome house for a big family get together!
I highly recommend the Battenkill Valley Mansion! We had a family holiday celebration weekend with 27 people ranging from my 3-month old niece to my 85- year old mother. The house was perfect! Everybody loved the bedrooms, which are larger than they look online. We enjoyed relaxing in the living room and in the family room by the fire. The kids enjoyed the ping pong table and basketball game. The kitchen is awesome. We cooked several large meals. The dining room is very spacious. We were able to eat together as a family several times. Most of all the "vibe" is very homey and comfortable. Everyone really enjoyed themselves and didn't want to leave.

5th Family Thanksgiving Reunion
This was our 5th Thanksgiving reunion with our family of 30 (including 16 grandkids ages 1 to 17 yrs. old). It has always been a great time with a lot of activities, including lacrosse, soccer, touch football, and fire-pit time outside and butter making, ping pong, basketball, wine tasting, and a huge Thanksgiving dinner inside with all gathered around tables in the game room. The old house was in better shape than previously with some new improvements and very clean. It is a grand old house for large groups with a bathroom in 13 of the 14 bedrooms. All of our family members, young and old, look forward to our time in the Mansion.

Our family has been enjoying the warm hospitality and great location for our 4th weekend reunion.The Mansion provides both indoor and outdoor room to relax , enjoy and to have great fun regardless of age. The fire pit is one of the features that really brings the family together as we gather round in the evening in the glow of a warm and inviting fire. The kitchen is great and provides the capabilities to feed over forty people in a very family atmosphere. The bedrooms are warm and spacious. Also we take advantage of the Wilburton Inn for overflow . The staff is on call to assist in any way and provide a very high level of service.All in all a great place ,with great people, with great views ! Looking forward to our 5th anniversary next year.

Perfect location and property for a large family reunion
The house was perfect for our large family of 30 people ranging from 21/2 years to 86 years old. Most of the bedrooms had a bathroom and there was a first floor bedroom for anyone who had difficulty with stairs. This house was comfortable and pleasantly decorated . The rooms seemed to be soundproof and even though we had a large crowd you felt like you were the only ones there when in your room. The Levis family are delightful and made us all feel very welcome. even though the house is seperate from the inn you are made to feel welcome at the pool or at breakfast. We had breakfast there one morning and it was delicious especially their French toast ( best I've ever had!) we attended the farm to table night and the food was delicious, music was excellent and worth going to. We were really close to the town , hikes, shops and other activities. Manchester is such a beautiful town . We will definitely be going back there.

Great property for a large group
What a great place for a large party/event! We rented it for my wife's 40th and had 30 guests each night. The house has a very comfortable lived-in feel to it. There is no worry about enough sleeping quarters or bathrooms! Kitchen was set-up well to be able to cook for a large group. The house is big enough that we had groups of guests all doing different things around the property at the same time without "stepping on each other's toes" (relaxing in the gazebo and front lawn, visiting with each other and doing a puzzle in the sitting room, siting by the fire, playing ping pong and dancing/singing in the game room). Located close enough to town that it is convenient, but just far enough outside that there is privacy. Many enjoyed outdoor activities during the day with hiking, biking, fishing, and shopping all centrally located. Staff were excellent and responsive throughout our stay. We will be looking for another excuse to gather the group and go back!

Comfort, Beauty and More
Battenkill Mansion fit all of our requirements for a family gathering with the possible exception of some hot, humid days to be expected in August in an era of climate change. With a cast of 25 folks from age 2 to 77, we had enough air-conditioned, well-maintained bedrooms, bathrooms, places to gather, privacy nooks, vast outdoor lawn to play, to sit, to read, and even a gazebo to shelter from the occasional rain. The commercially equipped kitchen was large enough for various folks to prepare their breakfast, lunch and snacks, and for the chef, we hired, to prepare wonderful dinners. The dining areas accommodated all us for meals and several to work on their computers during the day. The pool at the Inn was well-used by several of our party while others went off to explore hiking trails, shops, local swimming holes and summer music performances. Melissa and her staff were available when needed (which was seldom). All in all a great place to spend time with friends, family and loved ones.
