Cottage in the woods with a firepit, grill, washer/dryer, & AC - dog-friendly

Absolutely charming cottage in a beautiful and convenient location. Nicely equipped with a dishwasher and washer and dryer. Elegant and updated bathrooms. The home was clean and very comfortable. The only negative was that the mattresses could be replaced.

We were very disappointed that the fireplace was out of commission. The pictures are very misleading, showing several pictures of a roaring fireplace. After reading older reviews it seems to have been out of service since September of last year. When we contacted Vacassa about it, all they kept saying was that it was no longer listed as an amenity. I'm sorry but when you show pictures of it working, people expect it to be working when booking this home. Also, the white fabric couch was pretty dirty - we put a bed sheet over it when sitting there. Great location though and at an affordable price. Could use a cutting board and a sharp knife for cooking. Wifi was in and out the whole time, hard to use phone/computer.

The home was unacceptably dirty. There were stains on the pillowcases, hair in the bed, hair on the couch, dog hair on all of the blankets, stains all over the couch, food residue left on the table and what appeared to be melted chocolate on the couch pillows. I attempted to contact guest services every day of our visit and I was only offered a resolution after we checked out (which was only the cleaning fee refunded). I was uncomfortable during the entire stay due to the lack of cleanliness.

Great stay and had everything I needed plus more at the property. Well appointed and cute cabin with comfortable beds. Thanks for sharing your space!

Fantastic location and everything you need at the property. Comfortable beds and plenty of towels ! Lovely walk in shower and plenty of hot water. Plenty of tv channels and multiple parking spaces. Would highly recommend !

The place itself is hard to find but the host was super personable and answered immediately. Really cute cabin! Good for a few day stay.

Really cool and adorable place. Suggest adding a double or queen to the second room for a more user friendly experience.The home was well stocked, had everything we needed, and we loved the fireplace. Highly recommend.

Checking into the cottage felt like coming to stay at a good friend's house. It was comfortable and clean in a lived-in and approachable kind of way. It felt like an entirely appropriate place to bring my dog into, clean enough but it didn't feel like he was going to mess the place up just by being there. The gas fireplace was such a cozy feature and the lighting options in the living room fit in well with the soothing, cozy light from the fireplace. The fire pit added a lot of enjoyment to the night's, sitting out there looking at the stars and listening to loons calling on Lake Raponda. I struggled to find the kitchen light switch - it is hidden behind the kitchen utensils holder. The mattresses on both beds are very comfortable. The twin bed is not adequate for a tall person, so keep that in mind. Good hot water and water pressure in the showers. The front porch offered a nice option on a drizzly morning and the window seat in the living room was my favorite perch for an early morning coffee. The yard felt much more secluded than it really is, probably because no one was staying in the house just up the lane. So that was wonderful! If you are looking for a cottage that is cozy, tidy, but not fussy, this is a super option. I felt like I chose the right place when I saw the fairy lights lining in the enclosed front porch.

Cozy clean little house comfy beds nice having 2 baths one little downside was the very dim lighting especially in the kitchen overall great value

Fireplace heated the area very nice in the middle of a cold snowy winter.

Cozy and peaceful, just with they had turned the heat up before u got there. It was like 45-50 when I arrived and had to figure out the heating and wait for it to warm up for the first few hours.

Everything was very nice and welcoming in the cottage- exactly what we were looking for.

A beautiful, cozy home. My dog loved it too!

It was a great getaway. Perfect for recharging with peace and quiet of the woods and coziness of the propane fire place (I did have to call and have them light the pilot for me) they responded quickly and were there in 20 minutes.

A great place slow down and relax! Thank you!!

Can recommend

Everything about this stay was 5-star--great area, nice quaint place--except for 2 small points--the bedding, though did not smell dirty, had some hair on the sheets), and the cabin is considerably darker than the photo presents...very little natural light comes in. But those are simply FYIs for pickier travelers. I loved the place and would come back for sure.

Pictures are deceiving from what you see on listing cottage is very dark poor lighting, living room furniture is stained not very clean at all. First morning there while making breakfast the smoke detector randomly goes off , continuously while we manage to stop it temporarily within moment or so it goes off again unable to silence it. I Called VACASA representative to inform them of the situation and was told someone local would call to troubleshoot and come out this was Wednesday morning, Friday morning I receive a text asking if I would like someone to come out. Really no Show no Call until Friday…JOKE !What happens if it were a situation the renter wasn’t able to Manage? I see it as Very Poor Service.Cookware for those who cook was old non Teflon was just that non Teflon, no spices , scissors, foil, saran wrapping. Not even a pad of paper or pencil. Ordinarily property owners provide a guest services page outlining things to do instructions on trash removal, etc leaving a little personal touch when welcoming you to their rental, we did not find anything like that I found the little red cottage to be very disappointing over all. Would not recommend or return to this rental property.M.Sargent

I absolutely loved my stay at the Red Cottage and it is my favorite place that I've stayed while visiting Wilmington. Peaceful, plenty roomy, less than 10 minutes to town and even closer to the lake. I have Celiac so have to bring items like a toaster to avoid cross-contamination but the kitchen has everything you need for your stay. The team was super responsive even before my stay. Highly recommend and look forward to my next visit!

Check in process was good but do you really need a 10 digit access code for the deadbolt? When we entered there was a strange odor. We thought it was the mini-split, but even opening wind didn't help so we ended upbo to the local waows

Bed is on a slant and way too uncomfortable to sleep and needs replacement asap. Furniture not clean. Bug spray used was overwhelming to breathe. The kitchen was ok but used grill as preface. It’s a rustic cabin and like other post keep in mind its age. My biggest issue was the bed as I could not get a good night sleep for two weeks. The location was excellent.

Location to the lake was excellent

We enjoyed enjoyed everything about our stay. The cabin was cozy - the kind of place we could easily relax in when we weren’t out exploring or hiking. We look forward to returning!

very quiet and secluded locaion

Great location and super cute

Stayed twice would stay again

The cabin is cozy and sweet- we have a dog and small family and wanted to ski at Mt Snow. Cabin is short 20 minute drive to ski. Super cute town of Wilmington just a few minutes away. Go to Dots or Alpen Glow! Shaws grocery 2 minutes away. House has Pottery Barn vibes. Decent sized kitchen sitting and dining area. 2Bedroom 2 bath. This is not a house for a large crew but for a family getaway it was perfect. Street is quiet and residential. Neighbors seem really friendly. We would love to come back to rent in summer as well to see the lake right across the street.Bring your own coffee press or colombe if you’re a coffee snob - the little cafes were closed on Sunday!

Propane gas fireplace didn't work, needs some cleaning improvement, but overall the owners have created a cute getaway.

Great place just need the fire place to be fixed asap, especially for the winter time

A great little cabin close to Mt. Snow. Accurate description. Fire place didn’t work. Would stay here again.

Very cute little home close to Mount Snow. Was perfect for me, my husband, and my pup for a ski weekend. Only complaint is that the fire place shown didn’t work.

The house was really nice. I loved how remote it seemed and the snow was exactly what we wanted. It would have been nice to know at booking that the fireplace was not working since that was one feature we did really want, so we were really bummed to find out it didn’t work upon arrival. We wished that there was some sort of property guide as to how to work the heaters and the expectations on check out. Maybe a guide as to what to do or where to eat. In most of the other places we stay at there is a visitor guide or a house manual. Overall, we love Vermont and the cabin was just what we wanted for our quick family reset.

This is an adorable little cabin about 10 minutes outside of the small town of Wilmington. Guest service and responsiveness through vacasa was fantastic, and the house itself is really cute. It is a wonderful location for a romantic getaway (which I used it for) with plenty of outdoor activity's in either the summer (for lake raponda) or during winter for the myriad of ski options. For those reading multiple reviews, you will see that clenliness is the lowest rated statistic. HOWEVER I wanted to write this review specifically to address this. It seems that most people who rated this place low on cleanliness failed to realize that this is an off grid vacation cabin completely surrounded in the woods. Therefore it will obviously be a little more rustic. The cleanliness reviews do not do this place justice, it is wonderfully serviceable.

really enjoyed our stay. Place would be much better if there was a microwave.

Cabin was perfect for our long weekend. Master bed mattress needs an update, but otherwise everything was fantastic.

The main bedroom is 10 feet from the main road BUT the road is pretty quite. The beautiful gas fire place doesn't work which was a big disappointment since that is what caught my eye and was part of the reason we picked this place. The cottage is perfect for a couples get away. The furniture color is white, so you do see a lot of stains, however it was very comfy to sit on. Overall, it was a very nice little cottage. From looking at it from the outside, you wouldn't imagine that it was so cute on the inside. It's starting to get cold so the mice have come in, there was droppings on the kitchen table, night stand and on the floor. We made sure to rewas any dinnerware before using.
