Step away from it all into the quiet mountains of old Vermont where you'll find our tiny cottage nestled on the banks of our year round brook. Her melody changes throughout the seasons but she is almost always there to enchant you with her music. Sway in the hammock by your private waterside fire pit or head inside to curl up on the couch and revel in a sublime, uninterrupted view of the forest. This space beckons you back to simplicity, to our roots, where you can breath deeply and let yoursoul smile.

We live in a very peaceful and rural area of north central Vermont which provides a great mix of quiet and privacy, but is also with in an hours drive to most of the states interest points. There are 16 ski resorts within an hours drive, as well as breweries, State Parks, lakes and more. Fine dining is available within 30 minutes in multiple directions. Sitting at just over 1600’, we are in a unique microclimate that sometimes get a bit more snow than our surrounding towns. Our neighborhood is all tree lined winding dirt roads that weave along a tributary of the White River. Take a walk up the road to our closest neighbor who has a lovely Gotland sheep farm. The sheep and their guardian llama Alaska are typically grazing right by the road in front of the main barn. Kim is also a brilliant fiber artist and occasionally teaches various classes so please feel free to inquire about those if interested. Continue up the road to the dead end and turn left for breathtaking sunset views. If you're looking for something a little more sweaty, grab your bike or head out on a run around our block (about 4.5 miles) that takes you around and down to the bustling river, then leads you on a steady incline to an enchanted foot trail that winds up the hill and back around to the top of our road. Dirt roads abound and we're happy to help you figure out a path to explore =) We are also close to several snowmobile trails should you be inclined to stay with us while traveling the VAST.

    Photos and the description were wonderfully accurate, but don't show just how cute and cozy the place is! The hosts were responsive to any questions and suggestions. We loved our stay - will recommend it to all of our friends and hope to be back next year. The only issue was that we were so busy visiting family that we didn't get to hang out at the cabin enough!

    We had the privilege of staying in this adorable cabin for the weekend. Our hosts were warm and welcoming, and their property was perfect for a weekend away from the hustle and bustle of life. We look forward to our next visit!

    Highest praise for this place and the hosts. The larger property and the cabin itself are beautifully kept and everything in the listing is as pictured - comfy and nicely decorated and with all the basics for one or two people…but better than pictured because of the amazing setting on the edge of the woods next to a brook. It was perfect to be in the coziness of the house with that huge picture window, bringing the outdoors in with you. I also sat on the porch, all wrapped up, and listened to the silence (except for the sound of the brook). Thanks Keith and Erika for the perfect winter getaway - my only regret was that I forgot my snow shoes and that my stay wasn’t longer.

    We had a beautiful stay at this little getaway! I went to take some time to read and work on my dissertation with my dog and husband and it was perfect. Highly recommend and we'd love to come back!

    The place was exceptionally clean when we arrived. It was a cozy little cabin, decorated beautifully & updated. The drive out to the cabin is secluded & down a dirt road. it's a beautiful drive with rolling hills & farms. We personally didn't have any cell service (there is wifi at the cabin!) so we had to put in the address to the cabin before we left our destination & before if we went anywhere using the wifi. It was nice being set apart from the world for a little while. The bed was so comfy - best sleep we had the entire trip! we may or may not have researched & found a bed similar to buy when we arrived home. My favorite was having coffee on the couch in front of the large window overlooking the brook & trees. We had our 1 year old with us & she enjoyed climbing up & down the soft foot stools with a good sized area for her to crawl/walk (she's learning) & play with her toys. We also had enough room to set up her playpen. There is a little sink, refrigerator with freezer, toaster oven & an electric tabletop stove. They provide a couple cups, silverware, bowls, plates and a kettle. I had to learn how to do the pour over method for coffee - easy and the coffee was smooth & delicious. The propane heater added to the coziness of the cabin. Very down to earth, nice & hospitable owners! We met Keith during our stay, who brought us down a pint of maple syrup locally collected ($15/pint - worth it & delicious!). He showed us the property & gave recommendations! A wonderful stay!
