About this property
Cabot Cabin on a Quiet County Road
Our cozy 1830's cabin is on an old farm and just down the road from a breathtaking view over the Northeast Kingdom. In winter, cabin stays at 65 degrees. Very quiet, with virtually no traffic but the mailman once a day. The house is undeniably rustic, but charming and furnished with well-loved antiques. Open floor plan -bathroom only room with a door. Kids 7yrs+ welcome. Not near any downhill ski areas, and the rental is for the cabin and lawns, not whole property, and on unmaintained farm land, so are some old sheds and barn on land that are not accessible or safe for guests, though there is a front and side lawn that are kept mowed in the summer with seating, etc. November 1st through May 1st, guests will need snow tires or AWD / 4WD. Additionally, during "mud season," March 15 through April 25, you MUST have 4WD or AWD and a higher clearance car/truck. Some reviews of our property on Airbnb: "What a fantastic, cool, unique space to stay in. This older cabin has some really interesting antique décor and books, and I loved the unique lighting; it truly added to the rustic feel of the home. The owners really thought of everything when designing the space and stocking the space for guests, and we really appreciated the little extras. This is the perfect space for one couple and possibly one to two older children, and easy enough to find ... And what a beautiful view to wake up to! Cabot is a great little town with a small market and Harry's Hardware (hardware/bar/live music venue). We would be very happy to stay again here if we are in the area!" - Monica. And another from Lindsay: "Jennifer's house was perfect for a weekend getaway. Every nook was beautiful and perfectly decorated and the entire house felt cozy and comfortable. ... It was so relaxing to hike all day and come home and cook dinner together and cuddle up on the couch with a nice book and not even think of missed calls or meetings. The house is close to Groton State Forest, Kettle Pond State Park, and Peacham Pond ...Our stay was perfect and we loved the beautiful scenery - we can't wait to come back!" and finally one from Lucas: "The cabin was beautiful. The open floor plan worked well for us. Perfect for a couple or small family. Jennifer was an exceptional host and was very responsive when we had questions. We loved exploring the area and thought it was a great introduction to Vermont. Would definitely come back."

The house was just as described, very cozy and old school. Nice amenities by the owners. The only semi-complaint was how far out it was in relation to our friends we were visiting. Lots of dirt roads - picturesque but not speedy to get anywhere.

Thank you so much for your very postiive review! I would note that we are about 5-10 minutes from the village of Cabot, as well as the paved roads (RT 215) but it is always a good idea to check where you want to stay compared to where you plan to visit since Vermont is a small state, but from the south to north border, it can still take several hours :)
Cute, historic cabin nestled in the beautiful hills of Vermont. We enjoyed the well appointed space with little homey touches throughout. The kitchen had everything we needed. We also enjoyed the outdoor area of this property. The host really made us feel welcome in this comfortable space. Easy to communicate with too!
I really enjoyed my stay. The cabin was very clean, and much more spacious than what I expected. This is the perfect cabin for a single person, a couple, or 2 people who know each other well as the sleeping areas do not close off from the rest of the cabin. I'll stay here again the next time I'm in the area.
We were in town for a family event and found the cabin to be a lovely and interesting spot for our stay. It was a rainy weekend, but it cleared enough for a couple of beautiful walks down the country road. The host provided some a bit of food in the fridge, including some famous Cabot cheese!! Hope to visit again in the fall!
The house was absolutely charming! It is very old with tons of character and so cozy. The string lights and many lamps made it so warm and inviting. It was spotless and had thoughtful amenities everywhere to anticipate your needs. The fridge was stocked with some basics which was fabulous because we arrived late and stores close early in the area. The space was bigger than I anticipated from seeing the online photos and had everything we needed. It is located in the country where it is so quiet and dark and peaceful but there is also a lovely village store just a few miles away. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and I would love to stay again.
The cabin was what one might expect in Vermont and it didn’t disappoint. The setting was on a dirt road as most of Vermont roads are. It was nicely packed and not dusty. Neighbors were not close by, it was very quiet. The cabin was clean and stocked well. The extra necessities were a pleasant surprise and appreciated. Communication from Jennifer, the owner was excellent. I recommend this Vermont Cabin!
We LOVED this cabin! Quaint, quiet, and a bit quirky, it is a genuine antique cabin in a pretty spot on a dirt and gravel road, off the beaten path. We loved the vintage/antique touches, the beamed ceiling and the wide pine floorboards, worn down by age. It was more spacious than we expected, and was thoughtfully well supplied with everything we could possibly need. Jennifer, the host, was very responsive and all the information she supplied was accurate. We hope to be able to stay there again next summer!

Cabot cabin
Fine for a couple only, maybe a small child, but it is small! Check your weather report—we knew there was no air conditioning, but unfortunately the week we were there was 90 and humid.

Our house is perfect for a couple and while we do have an extra bed, it is an open floor plan. My memory is that you told us that two of you were coming in your reservation but in speaking with you, apparently you were planning to have three extra guests stay, because you were under the mistaken impression that our cabin was larger than it was despite our guest limit of three. This is confusing as we try to be as clear as possible to manage expectations. As for the air conditioning, no - we don't have any and as we are in the higher elevations so this is generally not an issue.
Our stay at this charming cabin was truly unforgettable! The location was perfect surrounded by picturesque farms, grazing cows, and nearly no light pollution, giving us a breathtaking view of the stars each night. We took the host's recommendation for a sunset walk nearby, which offered incredible views of the surrounding area, and it was a
highlight of our trip. The cabin itself was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described on the listing. The host was incredibly attentive, answering all of our questions within minutes and providing helpful suggestions throughout our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway!
Very secluded property. Very much as described. Great communication from host. One helpul hint, bring a stand-alone GPS, or maps of the area. Unsure of other cell carriers, but Verizon had ZERO signal. Wifi calling setting was essential.
The cabin itself was fantastic this was a charismas present for my fiancé. The property to the right had junk in yard old tires fallen down shed etc. etc.. To left of cabin was eye sore along with a lawn mower coved by very tall grass so was kind of embarrassed and disappointed from property keep up. If owners can just clean up yard some i feel it would be much better.

We are happy that you loved the cabin—we try to make it as cozy and comfortable as possible! Unfortunately, all our beautiful snow melted just before you arrived, and it leaves everyone's property looking so dismal outside until it either snows again or the grass grows in the spring. You had wanted to go snowmobiling, etc. and I am sure that it was very disappointing to have no snow at all. If we could control mother nature, we would have made it the snow globe that it should be in Vermont in December :) We do try to manage expectations about the place being a cabin on an old farm, etc. We have a totally open front yard, back yard and side yard that is mowed in the summer, with seating, etc. but don't mow the fields around behind the farm sheds, etc. and can't mow in the winter in any case. We are very sorry that this did not communicate well enough for you - I was worried when you inquired about a hot tub after you booked that perhaps you didn't read the description closely enough about it being a rustic cabin etc. :(
About the host
Hosted by Jennifer Taylor
My family has owned this house since 2001. We love the house and the land and are so happy that others are able to enjoy it as well. It is a magical place! We are super hosts on Airbnb and have a five star rating so if you would like to hear more about what others have said about our property, you can read our excellent reviews there.
Why they chose this property
This cabin was built sometime around 1830. It has such a sense of history about it and we have even met a woman who lived there back in the 1930;s before it had electricity or running water!
What makes this property unique
The land and house are very private with very few cars passing all day and you can see more stars than you can imagine! There are two small family dairy farms at each end of our road and the views from those farms are famous, even for Vermont- almost every year, we find one of these views in a Vermont scenic calendar. We are near a lot of hiking, lakes and ponds, and various festivals, from beer to music, happen all summer, and cross-country skiing and snow-shoeing in the winter.
