Cole Cabin as seen from the apple tree
Location: Stratton, Stratton Mountain, Vermont, USA
Accommodations: Cabin, 3 Bedrooms + Bunk Area, 2 Baths (Sleeps 4)
Quiet Place for a Vacation.
The Cabin is located with the Cole House next to a pond at 1700 feet on a quiet picturesque dead-end dirt road just below (one and one-half miles) the Stratton Mountain ski resort. Tennis, golf, horseback riding, and concerts at an outdoor shell are summertime features at the resort.
Rustic & Comfortable.
Warm and friendly, this is a cozy dwelling, comfortably furnished with everything provided for easy housekeeping, including bedding, dishes, cutlery and utensils. Everything is provided except sheets, pillowcases and towels.
The one-person stand-up kitchen has a stainless steel sink, dishwasher, electric range, coffee-maker, microwave, toaster and a refrigerator. The log living room, with a view of the pond, is cheered by a brick fireplace with an Avalon fireplace insert. Gas heat is available when needed. For dining, there is a locally made free form pine slab table.
There are two bathrooms in the cabin, one in the master bedroom and one in back of the fireplace with a shower big enough to hold two people and a sink. Across from the shower is a lavatory. In the hallway leading from the living area to the master bedroom are two double-sized bunks. The master bedroom with a queen bed has its own bath with shower.
A Private Pond.
Wrapping around the outside of the cabin is a sun deck facing the pond. The three quarter acre pond offers refreshing swimming and recreational (catch and return) trout fishing. It is both brook and spring fed. A rowboat is provided for fun. The grassy banks of the pond provide safe and easy entry into the water and is a great place to enjoy the sun on a hot day. A lovely screened gazebo graces the far shore. The pond is shared by the Cole House, another house I own across the way, but otherwise is private. A Weber grill is provided off the deck for outdoor cooking.
Lots to Do Nearby.
The Long Trail winds it way through the back of Stratton Mountain, for a good days hike. From the cabin, it is a pleasant hike to a waterfall at Pikes Falls, a beautiful rocky place for diving, sun bathing or hiking as well as a cool dip. The water is very cold even in the late August. Within a few miles, up at the Stratton ski area or down in the valley, are good eating places, country auctions, fairs, antiques and within a half an hour's drive, concerts and summer theatre in Weston and Dorset.
