Here are just a few of our testimonials about Quarry Hill......
"We moved into 38 Quarry Hill while we were building our new home. We are a family of 5 and needed a space that everyone felt comfortable in. The townhome is very clean, cozy and convenient. Seth and Ali took great care in choosing the furnishings...we may not want to leave!" -- Kara, VT
"I have stayed at 38 Quarry Hill on 3 different occasions. The four bedroom unit is spacious and comfortable. Top of the line kitchen and appliances. My grandson loved playing in the backyard and going for walks in the neighborhood. The location is perfect for getting around Burlington and the surrounding areas. I highly recommend this townhome and the owners are terrific!" -- Tom, FL
"We loved Seth and Alis' place! It’s a beautiful spot in a great location close to UVM. We especially loved that kitchen was stocked with cookware and spices. Would stay here again in a heartbeat." -- Molly, West Virginia
"Great spot. Convenient to everything. House is beautiful, place was spotless and well thought out. Great hosts." -- Mike, Burlington CT
And a few more about Pleasant Valley.......
"Beautiful newly renovated space with lots of thoughtful touches. Heated bathroom floors, in-unit laundry, full kitchen with all the pans and utensils you might need, toaster oven, microwave, etc. Bed was on the firm side, but comfortable, and the blackout shades in the bedroom were greatly appreciated! There are also horses and donkeys on the property to visit with! It was a lovely place to stay and we'd definitely come back!" --WeiJing, Boston MA
"Seth and Ali's home is great and in awesome location if you’re looking to spend time hiking and exploring the area. It’s conveniently located between Burlington and Stowe which provide great getaways for dinner or a night out. The home is thoughtfully put together and has everything you need for a fun night in. Cool a meal, sit inside, complete a puzzle, or enjoy the company of one other in whatever fashion you’d like. One of my favorite Airbnb’s, will definitely be back." -- Dave, Montreal
"This is the perfect little getaway. Cozy and quaint place with a beautiful, quiet property. Seth and his wife did a great job with the decor and added amenities throughout the place. The location is conveniently close to so many attractions. We were able to travel to Burlington, Stowe, Waterbury, etc. While also making a day trip to Montreal!" --Tanya, RI
"Seth and Ali have thoughtfully planned out every inch of the space at The Nest. It was perfect for a long term stay for my husband and I. The kitchen was immaculate with every utensil you could need included and high quality items. No plastic in sight here! The washer and dryer was a luxury to have with natural detergent. The bathroom is equipped with a spacious tub and heated floors. We would have loved to stay longer. Their property has easy access to numerous walking trails as well. Don’t pass up an opportunity to stay at The Nest and enjoy the outdoors. Seth was always quick to respond and very helpful with questions related to the local area. He and his family were gracious hosts and we loved staying here!" -- Lyndsey, TN
