Northwoods Guest Cabin is a tiny-house with a sleeping loft. The steps to the sleeping loft are steep, so if you have mobility issues, this may not be the best choice for you. The back porch overlooks the woods and a flowing stream. There's a small kitchen and bathroom. The house has a private entrance as it is a stand-alone guesthouse. There is WiFi, though it can be finicky up here. The kitchen has basic spices, pots/pans, and dishes. There are starbucks coffee and tea set-ups. The bathroom is stocked with toiletries and towels. Note that there isn't a dishwasher or washer/dryer. You'd be close to cross-country skiing and hikes at the Craftsbury Outdoor Center, Craftsbury has two general stores. There are three public libraries in our small town. Nearby, we have eclectic museums; Bread and Puppet Museam and Theater, The Museam of Everyday Life, The Highland Center of the Arts, The Old Stonehouse Museam is a cool destination in summer as is Craftsbury Historical Society on the Common.

We are a 40-minute drive to Lake Willoughby State Park, 30 minutes from Elmore State Park, 10 minutes from Barr Hill Conservation Area , 45 minutes from Stowe restaurants, including Trapp Lodge and bike path. A bit further to Mt. Mansfield and from Jay Peak.

There are multiple dining options. The Black Bird Bistro is the favored gathering place, though the Highland Lodge serves food as does both of our General Stores. We have a seasonally delightful option, Hinterland, which features 1st class homemade food as well as selling the most eclectic sundry of items anywhere around. Willey's is a favorite gathering place for groceries, hardware/clothing...with the motto, If You Can't Find It at Willey's, You Don't Need It. Parker Pie in Glover (over the mountain) features a wild array of draft options and The Best Pizza. Hardwick is about 20 minutes from the cabin and features the primo coffee house in the area, The Front Seat. There's also the best breakfast at the Diner in Hardwick, and Positive Pie is consistently delicious. Morristown also has many shopping and dining options and is about a 30 minute drive. Greensboro, where Willey's is, is about 10 minutes away as is the Farmstead Brewery. Barton, 30 minutes away, is where Parker Restaurant is and offers more casual but finer dining. We love it there. You'd be about an hour from Jay Peak and all it has to offer.

I can go on, but I'll stop there. For a town of 1000, I'm struck by the richness of beauty, recreational options, culture, and rural landscape right here! Enjoy!

PS: We are pet-friendly. Please make sure to register your pet as there is a cooresponding fee.

    This property was gorgeous! My husband and I needed a quiet and peaceful place to just rest. We didn't want to hear traffic noise or neighbors. It was perfect for us and we came away refreshed. The stairs to the bed were challenging in the night, but we did fine. Thank you!

    Location was ideal for our travels. The cabin had all the amenities we needed. The sounds of the creek and all the trees made the stay so peaceful.

    The hosts were very welcoming and responsive when we had questions! The cabin was so cozy and well-equipped - the perfect getaway and home base to come back to after skiing. Our dog had a great time as well and our hosts were very thoughtful about her. Thank you for a lovely time!

    Everything was very clean. Nice setup in the small kitchen. Loft bed was comfortable. Great location - back small deck with chairs overlooking their small brook. A little too cold to sit outside in December, I'm definitely coming back with my wife in Spring. Great place for a couple to get away

    Cozy, clean, relaxing and beautiful. Highly recommended. We're 67 and had no problem with loft/bedroom.

    I visited Craftsbury with my 15-year-old who participated in a 1 week internship at a local museum. The cabin was just the right size for the two of us to spend quality time together while each taking our own space when we needed it. Our hosts were fantastic: welcoming and friendly. The kitchen was well appointed. Listening to the babbling brook and breathing the fresh air made my morning coffee into a spiritual experience! Gwen and Larry made sure we had everything we needed. The beds were comfy and the decor complimented the natural beauty all around us. It was easy to regulate the temperature, (during a heat wave) there was plenty of good lighting for reading and the wifi was great.

    Gwen and Larry were excellent hosts from start to finish! The property was everything as described, plus more. The communication with the hosts were direct and speedy with responses, an attribute that made our weekend even more enjoyable! From the cute landscape surrounding the cabin, to every aspect inside that was available for us. I look forward to hopefully making more trips back to this quaint destination for an escape from the hustle of Jersey!
