Built on the foundation of the original barn of an 1830s farmhouse, this cottage offers you 1,200 square feet of tranquility all year around. Hiking, mountain biking, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, ice skating, skiing, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, golf, and, of course, fall leaf peeping is at your doorstep. Or venture no farther than the windows and skylights to view spectacular sunrises, wildlife, Vermont’s iconic moonlight, and stellar stargazing. Mount Snow (26 miles) and Stratton Mountain (32 miles) are less than an hour's scenic drive, and Brattleboro's Living Memorial Park offers a mini-ski lift for winter family fun.

You’ll enjoy the open flow downstairs with a large kitchen, living room, and dining area. An office/study, equipped with a pull out queen-sized sofa for extra bed space, and a combination half bath/laundry room with washer/dryer complete the first floor. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms (queen and twin beds) with skylights and ample closet space bookend a large complete bath.

Serenity Cottage offers plenty of privacy, with its own yard, framed by woods and a rock garden. A lily garden brightens the front, which also features original stone walls and century-old apple trees. Putney Road conveniences, I-91, and the enticements of Brattleboro are within minutes, yet remain a world apart. We're dog friendly.

    The cottage is clean, comfortable, and in a nice rural setting just a few minutes from the stores and restaurants of Brattleboro, I-91, and outdoor activities. We appreciated that our two dogs were welcome and they had a great time exploring the yard around the house. Phil and Leslie are friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay again.

    Had a wonderful stay! Would stay again for sure. Lots of space…certainly can accommodate more than two. The microwave was not clean but everything else was spotless. Would have been more convenient if better shower products were provided (shampoo/conditioner/large soap). The driveway got really muddy after warmer temps hit making for quite a mess which we did our best to not track in! We fit in 2 days of cross-country skiing nearby, some winter hiking. shopping and dining…all nearby. We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend away in one of our favorite states. Thanks, Phil!

    Charming cottage, clean and well maintained. Host responded in a timely manner to emails. I don't know who the quilter is, but there were some beautiful quilts. The cottage had all the comforts of home and we the antique furniture added to the charm. Plenty of space for parking, quiet area; the only thing missing was we didn't see any moose :-). We will definately book here again when we are in the ares.

    Our stay was amazing. Such a relaxing property. You don't even feel like you are near a city at all. The drive up is forest-like. The amount of birds we saw was incredible. We were greeted by a deer and a ton of bunnies and chipmunks. The stars were incredible. We were even able to star gaze through the skylights in each bedroom. The Kitchen was big and the living room and couch were perfect. The little room next to living room was super cute, although we didn't get to use it b/c were were only there 2 nights. Be mindful b/c each step is pretty high to go up to the bedrooms. The bathroom was a little dated, but really clean. Owners greeted us from afar which was nice! We loved our stay and will be back for sure.

    Adorable cottage as advertised. Lovely quiet location not far from town and all shops and restaurants. Hiking all around nearby. Did not require help but owners house also on property so I don’t think it would’ve been a problem if we needed anything. Beds were comfy, kitchen perfect. Living room a little challenging for 3 to watch TV comfortably but we made do! Shower was a little cool and not great pressure, but would not detract from stay overall!

It is very private, and quiet which is exactly what we were looking for coming from jersey. We skied at Mount snow which was about 40 minutes away. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a quiet getaway.

We appreciate that it is set apart from town, yet is remarkably only 3-4 minutes drive to food and all our activities in Brattleboro. Love being treated to dark starry nights and misty sunrises. We'll be returning next year!

    Daughter and I came to Brattleboro for a visit with brother/son. Serenity Cottage is situated in middle of locations we would visit. We really enjoyed waking up & sitting outside for morning quiet time. Next we’d take a walk & loved the beautiful area. So quiet, peaceful and relaxing! Brattleboro downtown has some really cute shops too!
