Wilmington, Vermont
Charming 3 bedroom cabin nestled in the woods at the top of Chimney Hill on Haystack Mountain, a 15 minute drive from Mt Snow Ski Resort, with a newly renovated kitchen. Our cabin offers a cozy living room with a pellet stove and sliding glass doors overlooking a private deck backing to forest. Guests enjoy access to Chimney Hill's Clubhouse (indoor pool, hot tub, outdoor heated pool, game room and fitness center), and a stocked fishing pond, ice skating rink, hiking and snowmobile trails.
Our cabin is located near the top of a mountain in the Chimney Hill area in Wilmington, Vermont. Chimney Hill is a unique family-centered community of private homes nestled on a wooded hillside bordered by the Green Mountain National Forest and surrounded by a four season recreational area.
Our Clubhouse is the social center of the community all year round, and it is about a half mile from our cabin. The clubhouse has an indoor pool and a hot tub, a heated outdoor pool during summer months, a game room with a pool table and arcade machines, a fitness room, and much more. Our renters have access to the Chimney Hill Clubhouse and all it offers. Also within the Chimney Hill community is a stocked fishing pond, outdoor ice skating rink and warming hut (skates available free of charge), hiking, snowshoeing, x-country and snowmobile trails with some homes having direct access to the Vermont Association of Snow Travelers (VAST) trail system. Our cabin is a short walk from the entrance to the Haystack Trail.
Historic downtown Wilmington enjoys a beautiful natural setting and a close-knit community. The compact village center is full of independently owned shops, Inns and restaurants. We are surrounded by lakes, mountains, and forest, with miles of hiking trails (some accessible right from downtown). Wilmington celebrates farm-to-table culture, with many local restaurants offering the best of the bounty of the land. Local boutiques round out a selection of gifts, homewares and clothing including specialty stores such as Quaigh Designs, Incurable Romantic, The Vermont Bowl Company and the Norton Quilt House.
Our cabin (as we call it) was built in 1972 as a rental property to support nearby ski resorts. Even today there is no mail delivery on our street! And there are also no fire hydrants on top of the mountain! (So, please no smoking in the cabin - it's important) Dawn’s father purchased the cabin with some other family members in 1989 to serve as a family gathering place and a rental property. Many members of the family enjoyed the cabin and the Wilmington area for years. Dawn’s dad let her know that he was selling it in 2019. So, we decided to purchase the property to keep it in the family! And then, we began a renovation of the cabin - much of the work Tim has completed himself! And wow, it’s been a lot of work. We have enjoyed the process - it’s been almost magical to watch it unfold! There’s a lot of heart in this home, and 4 generations now in our family have been enjoying it over the past 30+ years. We hope you enjoy your stay at the cabin.
Our family of 6 had a nice getaway for some skiing at Mt. Snow. The house was stocked with everything we needed and plenty of room to spread out. Owners were very responsive. Great option for families looking for a cozy getaway.
Cute and cozy home for MORE than enough room for me, my husband, our two young children, sister in law and parents. Beautifully decorated house and great area and amenities! The owners were more than helpful and friendly and were quick to reply when VRBO had a little glitch! We would absolutely love to visit again!
This cabin was perfect for the 5 of us with room to spare if you have more. It made for a comfy cozy long weekned getaway. Close to Wilmington, Bennington and Brattleboro. Awesome views no matter where yu go. Kitchen was stocked and clean. Bedrooms were clean and comfy with a woodsy cabin feel. Deck and backyard looked nice. Unfortunately we didnt get the chance to use either due to weather and dark fall nights. We did have 2 movie nights though. Only thing that could have made our stay better was if we could log into our home Amazon prime and Netflix accounts. We made it work though. We had a great time exploring Wilmington and HIGHLY recommend Starfire Bakery. Would definitely stay here again.
We had an amazing visit the cabin is absolutely beautiful and the owners are very communicative with any issues going on. We had a wide variety of ages and the only thing anyone had to even slightly complain about was pool hours but we still got to enjoy the indoor heated pool and hot tub. We will absolutely be back. Id recommend this place to anyone visiting Vermont in the future ❤️
Beautiful area, cabin just as described, great time!
I would definitely rent this property again.
Beautiful place to stay in the fall.
The location of this property was in a very serene location in the woods. We would sit outside at night in the backyard making a fire in the built in fire pit with the wood that was stored there. The house itself was very cozy and fit our family of six nicely. It was a good balance of feeling like you're out of the way of regular civilization while at the same time supermarkets were only ten minutes away. We spent our days in the nearby beautiful lakes which were only about fifteen minutes away.
Owner sent arrival instructions the day before arrival. The instructions are easy to understand. The Cabin was clean and the minor issue was explained and do not caused any inconvenience. We enjoyed the quiet of the mountain and the convenience of being near the center of town.
