With all due respect to the photographer who took the pictures for the listing, this place was even better than we expected. The property itself is fantastic, and the hospitality shown from the hosts was exceptional.

Unreal experience. We came up for a sales meeting/retreat for 4 days in July. The place was immaculate, had stunning views, and had every amenity/sporting good necessary for a fun and relaxing time. The host went the extra mile to personalize a few items for our stay. Check-in was simple and clean-up was easy. The only issue we had was no one wanted to leave. 11/10 experience. We definitely plan on booking this place or with this host in the future.

Our stay at the Calais Palace was nothing short of amazing. The property is stunning, the amenities like the pool and hot tub are fantastic, and the included thoughtful items were welcomed. The entire place top to bottom was cleaned and well cared for. We particularly enjoyed the outdoor game options like Disc Golf and volleyball. The host had a thoughtful gift waiting for us when we arrived as well. This property is unique in the sense there is just as much to do inside as there is outside between the indoor pool, game room, and large congregation spaces. We were able to setup board games and other indoor activities that required a substantial amount of room. Plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchen items to accommodate 15 people. The checkout process was straightforward and fair. We will absolutely be planning a return trip to this beautiful property and thank the hosts for making it a great weekend from all accounts.

With ages from 12-80, all of us loved the house. There were so many thoughtful additions that made our stay easy and fun. The outdoor games, the pool, plenty of towels, comfortable beds for everyone, it was easy to settle in and relax.
We did spend time in Montpelier, but could have happily spent the whole time just at the house.
Thank you for a wonderful experience.
From the Owner: "We are so happy you enjoyed the house. Thank you for the feedback about labels. We did have labels previously, so maybe we will add them again. Thank you very much for your 5-star review. We appreciate it!"
