Guests enjoy access to over 2,000 feet of frontage on the Lamoille River with swimming holes, river beaches, and private access to a scenic on-site waterfall. The property offers a peaceful natural setting that feels secluded while still being minutes from restaurants, breweries, skiing, hiking, and outdoor recreation.

The shared spa amenities are a highlight of the stay. Relax in the outdoor hot tub under the stars or unwind in the treehouse barrel sauna after a day of exploring. Both are open year-round and professionally maintained. Guests also have access to campfire areas, walking paths, and EV charging stations.

The location is ideal for exploring northern Vermont. Historic Johnson village is five minutes away for dining and essentials. Stowe Mountain Resort is about 30 minutes away, Smugglers’ Notch Resort is about 20 minutes away, and Jay Peak Resort is under an hour. The nearby Lamoille Valley Rail Trail offers excellent biking, walking, and snowmobiling. The area is known for craft breweries, farm stands, maple sugar shacks, fall foliage, and four-season outdoor adventure.

Parking is available directly at the unit, with additional parking and EV charging in the upper lot. Guests share some amenities with other unique rentals on the property, creating a relaxed boutique retreat atmosphere while preserving privacy and space.

    As long as you know what you're getting into with a tiny home, this is a unique and fun stay! We spent two nights in the Caboose and while it was tight is some areas (e.g. the loft bed can be tricky for two given the very low ceiling) it was mostly plenty of space for us and our dog. The property has several other cabins, tiny homes and yurts in various shapes and sizes around in which other people we staying but they are spaced out enough that everyone has plenty of room for themselves. It's located right alongside a picturesque river as well.The location itself is close to the Mt. Mansfield/Smuggers Notch/Stowe area with lots to see and do around within 10-30m drive.Host was very responsive and accommodating.

    We loved that we could walk down to the river and watch the sunset. The new houses look like they're going to be beautiful! The hot tub was wonderful after a long day of traveling! It was a great experience we will definitely return!

    Very comfortable beds. Very pretty waterfall on property. Hot tub was great. Absolutely nothing is included to make our stay no stress. Other vrbo’s we stayed at had coffee pods, creamers, sugars, small snacks etc. there was not even a lighter to start the fire in the pit. Other renters knocked on our door asking if we had any cooking oil because there unit had nothing included as well. No salt, pepper..nothing as well. Tyler did respond initially with concerns I had about the charging station we needed and there was no bathsoap provided. After that he did not respond to my requests for additional bath towels as we stayed 5 nights and wanted fresh towels even after we paid an additional 100 dollars for a third guest, even though the listing states it sleeps 4. Which he said was needed to cover additional linens, etc.overall it was ok, we also had to replace our own toilet paper and clean the chairs around the fire pit cause there was no way to sit in them without getting your clothes filthy. Maybe a daily check of built up mildew would be nice.

    Great stay at Uncommon Accommodations! We loved our time at the Caboose Tiny Home. There were 3 of us and a small dog. We used the double bed upstairs plus the sofa bed (ground floor), nice and cozy. Cooked breakfast all 4 days and loved the hot shower. When the lights were out we watched the fireflies in the neighboring woods. Highly recommended for a long weekend. Tyler (host) readily available to answer any questions.

    Spent a long weekend for my partners birthday. It was fabulous. The accomodations were great, we enjoyed the hot tub on a chilly 15 drgree day, and we enjoyed walking along the river with our dog. It was all around a perfect weekend.

    Wasn’t sure about tiny house living but was always curious about what it would be like. Worked well for us and our dogs. Nice location with lots of great hiking nearby. Was quiet and neighbors were nice.
