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!

I would recommend this Home for ANY Large Group
We hosted a corporate Retreat this past weekend at the mansion. It was perfect.. More than enough room for our full group of almost 35 people. The place was clean, huge industrial kitchen and dining room to prepare large group meals, never a wait for any bathroom. It was perfect..They were kind enough to load up both of their barbecue tanks for us even in the winter. Local to Bromley mountain and gave a great deal on the lift tickets at a discounted group rate. I RECOMMEND YOU STAY HERE!

Wonderful home for our large group!
Wonderful mansion for our group of 30! Beds are very comfortable, rooms are large - a place for everyone. Fun game room with a ping pong table, too, for the young or young-at-heart. Melissa and Michelle were very helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. We'll be back!

The Battenkill Valley Mansion is only a mile from the Equinox hotel, but it feels a world away, surrounded by tall pines, and adjacent to the rolling fields of Hildene Meadow and the Battenkill River. Step outside your door for miles of scenic bike rides or runs along scenic River Road.
The historic Battenklill Valley mansion was built in 1904 as a wedding present for the daughter of the family who lived nearby at the Wilburton Inn. Guests of the Battenkill Mansion may now enjoy the amenities of the Wilburton Inn, including pool, tennis, and 28 acres of sculptures, flower gardens and breath-taking mountain views.

The Dorset Summer Theatre Festival, Vermont Horse Show, Southern Vermont Art Center, Crafts Fair, and farmers markets are just a few of the fun nearby activities.
