About Francine or Eric
We are Eric and Francine Chittenden, and we each grew up in Vermont. Eric is an ancestor of Vermont's 1st Governor, Thomas Chittenden. Francine was born in Quebec, and thus her 1st language is French. We both grew up on dairy farms. We got married in 1973, and founded the Cold Hollow Cider Mill in 1974, which rapidly evolved into one of Vermont's premier 'must-see' attractions. In 1980 we created Governor Tom's restaurant, an immensely popular eatery for 8 years. We sold the cider mill in 2000 to Paul & Gail Brown so that we could fulfill our growing 'bucket lists.' The mill continues to be very successful.
Currently Eric holds a license to sail as Captain on the largest ships in the world, and works primarily on the Hawaiian run as a deck officer. Francine is Director of Human Resources for the Vermont Foodbank.
Francine or Eric purchased this estate in 2000

Exceptional!

Amazing!
Eric and Francine were accommodating, kind, and all around awesome people. We would have had no idea that other people lived in the house, except any time we needed help or had questions they were there within a few minutes. Their home and property are breath taking and the home made cider could make millions!!! Thank you so much for a great weekend!
Great house!
We had a wonderful time, 6 couples with no kids for a getaway weekend! Between the hot tub and all the sledding we did in the backyard we had such a great time!!! Thanks Francine, she was easy to work with and we didn't even know she was next door!!
This was our second time here and I guess this expalins how much we loved it!
Great home, very clean! It has everything you may need even a pool table, a hot tub and a sauna. Only 15-20 minutes away from ski resort. We definitely want to go there again!
December 2016 stay at Waterbury Center: Major Country Estate Home
Our stay at Francine & Eric's home in Waterbury Center ranks among the best VRBO experiences we have had. The premises were perfect for our group of 8 (we could easily have had 2-3 more). Plenty of cooking and eating space; pool table and hot tub; large grill for our steaks; comfortable temperature; numerous beds and bathrooms. Also, Francine was available at a moment's notice if we had any questions and was up at dawn shoveling the pathways to give us access to our vehicles. The location was perfect for skiing/boarding at Sugarbush our first day and Stowe our second day.

We were a group of 5 couples mid 50's and stayed for 2 nights over Veterans Day.Guys spent the day visiting several nearby breweries while the girls went to nearby Burlington for shopping.When we returned ,Francine had a fire all set up to go in the fire pit.The property was great and Francine was gracious and easy going.
