Wild Sky Guesthouse Retreat with Sauna – Charlotte, Vermont

Welcome to Wild Sky Guesthouse, your private forest retreat in Charlotte, Vermont — where the air is crisp, the stars are bright, and nature is your closest neighbor. This dreamy modern guesthouse combines cozy charm with big-sky views, and it’s just minutes from Vermont’s most beloved destinations.

When guests arrive, they often pause in the doorway and simply say, “Wow.” That’s because the entire front of the guesthouse is framed by 10-foot-tall windows overlooking peaceful hills, forest, and ever-changing Vermont skies. Whether it’s golden autumn leaves, sparkling winter snow, or summer sunsets streaked with pink, the view is a living painting.

The Space

Inside, you’ll find a thoughtfully designed, light-filled living space that feels open yet intimate. The open-concept living and dining area has high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows that keep you connected to nature from sunrise to stargazing. A telescope is provided for exploring Vermont’s dazzling night skies — you’ll be amazed at how many stars you can see without city lights. The fully equipped kitchen is perfect for preparing your favorite meals. The luxury queen bed is dressed in soft linens for restful sleep. The modern bathroom offers a walk-in shower, plush towels, and essentials provided.

Your Private Cedar Sauna

One of the highlights of your stay will be the private cedar sauna, just steps from your door. Whether you’re unwinding after a hike up Mt. Philo, warming up after a winter adventure, or simply treating yourself to a spa-like ritual, the sauna is all yours to enjoy at any time.

Outdoor Living

Step outside onto your large private deck to breathe in the fresh Vermont air. Watch fireflies dance on summer nights. Listen for the call of owls in the surrounding forest. Sip coffee as morning light spills over the mountains.

Location Highlights

You’re tucked away in a peaceful setting, yet close to everything. Just 2 minutes from Mt. Philo State Park — Vermont’s oldest state park with panoramic summit views of Lake Champlain and the Adirondacks. Only 8 minutes from Lake Champlain — perfect for swimming, kayaking, and sunset picnics. Just 20 minutes from Burlington — Vermont’s vibrant lakeside city with dining, shopping, and a lively arts scene. Also a short drive to local farms, vineyards, cideries, and charming small towns.

Who This Retreat is For

This is a place to slow down, breathe deeply, and connect — with yourself, with someone you love, or with the beauty of nature. While children are welcome, the guesthouse is best suited for adults due to its serene setting, open design, and features such as the sauna and telescope. Guests include solo travelers seeking a restorative retreat, writers and artists looking for inspiration, birders and nature lovers eager to explore Vermont’s landscapes, and couples celebrating honeymoons, anniversaries, or just much-needed time together.

Why Guests Love It

The privacy of your own stand-alone guesthouse surrounded by forest. A design that is modern, airy, and thoughtfully crafted with natural materials. The constant connection to nature through wildlife sightings, quiet trails, and endless views. And the convenience of being minutes from both outdoor adventures and local culture.

Plan Your Vermont Escape

Whether you come to hike Mt. Philo, paddle on Lake Champlain, explore Burlington’s markets, or simply curl up with a book and watch the weather roll across the mountains, this guesthouse is your home base for it all. And when you return each evening, the sauna will be waiting to warm and relax you before another peaceful night under Vermont’s star-filled skies.

Book your stay today and experience Wild Sky Guesthouse — where modern comfort meets timeless Vermont beauty.
