The Cole House is Taken
for the 2009 -2010 Ski Season
We are specifically looking for a family for the house.
Rent:
Rate: $10,500.00 for the Season (December 1st- April 15th)
plus Utilities.
What the Cole House and Cole Cabin are all about
The Cole House and the companion Cole Cabin offer unpretentious, but authentic ski housing that is away from the city-like atmosphere at the Stratton Ski Resort. These houses are a refuge from the hurly-burly of the city and the resort itself. They are a short five minute drive from the resort, yet they are separate and apart on a dead-end dirt road that is kept open by the town year round. To get to the resort, take a right at the bottom of the lane. 500 feet later take a right up Brazier's Way. This is the back access road to the resort. Five minutes later you are ready to ski.
Want to spend a day doing something other than ski? Want to get away from the crowds at the resort? Consider the Cole House and Cole Cabin. With a skateable pond (3/4 of an acre in size) on the property, you will have an alternative activity for the kids that costs you nothing extra; you just have to shovel the snow off it.
The Details
How many people will the Cole House sleep comfortably?
Six (6) people comfortably. This dwelling
is ideal for a small
to medium sized family. The last three years we have had a family
of four in the house and they have loved it. Need a larger space for
two families? Consider renting both the Cole Cabin and the Cole house.
Others have done it. You can have one house for each family, yet they
are close enough to each other so you can easily do things together.
How many Cars can the parking area next to the
house hold in the winter?
Three (3) cars is pretty much it. Unfortunately, cars can't be
parked on the road, because they will block the snow plow. There is
a parking area down at the bottom of the lane opposite the golf school,
but I can't guarantee that Stratton will keep it open this winter.
How many bedrooms does the Cole House have and
what size are the beds?
There is one bedroom downstairs with a queen-size bed. There are
two bedrooms upstairs, one with two double-beds and another bedroom
with one double-bed.
How many bathrooms are there?
There is a split bath downstairs with a sink and a toilet
in one room and a sink, tub and shower in the other room. Upstairs
there
is a bath with a shower. There is a utility room with a washer and
dryer on the first floor.
What period does the rental cover?
From Saturday, December 1, 2009 - Sunday, April 15, 2010. This
rental is for recreational use only, not full time use. Recreational
use is defined as for weekends, holiday periods, vacations, etc. The
utilities
and the rent are based on recreational use only.
How much is the rent for the Cole House?
10,500.00 plus Utilities (click
to see a listing of the utilities).
$3500 is paid up front for the utilities. This sum covers everything
including plowing, caretaking, propane, electricity, satellite
programming, water conditioning and telephone (local service; you use
your credit card for long distance calls). This fee does not cover
cleaning
or trash removal. I pay the bills during the ski season and deduct
the cost from the $3500. At the end of the season you get an accounting
and any money
not used
is returned to you.
Cleaning can be arranged with a local cleaning person for an additional fee. Trash disposal is easy for you to do. It is a five minute drive just past the Sunbowl to the Stratton trash and recycling center or you can take the trash home with you on weekends.
Can we sell Shares in the house?
No. Only the family whose names appear on the Letter of Agreement
and their friends, when they are there, may use the dwelling. This dwelling
may not be sublet nor may shares be sold apportioning use of the house
or cabin.
Is there a Security Deposit and how much is it?
$1000.00
