About this property
Log Cabin w/ Amazing Views, River Frontage & Hot Tub
A sparkling clean, recently renovated log cabin in the woods with beautiful views of river and mountains.
Located by the charming villages of Williamsville and Newfane, 12 miles from Mount Snow, and right on the crystal clear Rock River.
It's the perfect place for a romantic getaway, a family vacation and quality times with good friends.
With outdoor hot tub with views of mountains, river and the wide, open sky above.
The cabin is tastefully modernized by Danish builder, and the open concept kitchen, dining room, and living room with rows of huge, panoramic windows offers amazing views of mountains and front row for leaf peeping.
The 18 acre property is located on the Rock River, at the end of a dirt road. The property offers opportunity for scenic snowshoeing and hiking. We provide the snow shoes.
The property has about a mile of river frontage with access to the clear and refreshing water of the Rock River. In the summer, private dips in the river are just a short stroll from the house. Additionally, you'll find several really nice swimming holes in the area.
Quiet, peaceful, lovely, romantic... come stay for two nights or several weeks.
As a Dane, I take cleanliness very seriously. We are always block off a full day between reservations to do a deep cleaning of the cabin and the hot tub. To help us mitigate the extra cost of this deep cleaning, we have raised the cleaning fee to $75. We appreciate your understanding.
More details about the cabin and the outdoors area:
There are to two bedrooms (one with a queen and one with two twin beds) and one bathroom.
Also, a big open concept living room/dining room and kitchen with panoramic views of mountains and the river.

About the host
Hosted by Lasse Jeppesen Schmidt
Originally from Denmark, I have lived in the United States since 2003, with my US American wife and our bilingual son, Gabriele. I have a Bachelor's degree in Journalism and a Master's degree in Conflict Transformation. A bit of a professional nomad, I currently enjoy making a living as an eco-carpenter, with a focus on full-house renovations in the lovely green mountains of Vermont.
I love skiing and snowboarding with my 17 year-old son and his friends, all now faster than me! Gabriele and I currently hold a season pass to Mount Snow, but we also love the laid-back, local feel of Magic Mountain (another of the local resorts).
I also enjoy (and agonize over) watching my home team "AGF" play soccer in the Danish Superliga (like the Red Sox was until 2004, we are a sleeping giant that has not won any trophy since 1996); losing myself for a while in online chess; and cycling around Denmark every year with my wife and son, soaking-in fickle Danish summers on the small islands that dot my homeland.
I am a jazz and blues fan, though I listen to enough Amy Winehouse that Gabriele tells me to turn it off! Our family got a rescue puppy, Cocoa, who I love very much (and she keeps me - relatively - fit with daily walks in the woods.
Finally, I love my work. Susie and I have long believed in buying primarily recycled and/or fairly traded items as our way of helping to reduce climate change and support livable wages. This log cabin is a reflection of our principles. It is a joy for me to find something old and work with my hands to restore it to its former beauty. Here is where my Danish design training - elegant form is as important as effortless function - meets the Vermont value of ingenuity and quality that lasts. I hope you feel this ethos, along with my joy in bringing it to you, in every room of the cabin.
