Such lovely cabins! We rented two, one for our three boys and one for us, to go skiing at Okemo. The hot tub was magic! And the beds so comfortable. Will try to return!

Beautiful property with lots of privacy and access to all the amenities one could want while away from home. Truly felt like home away from home! Wendi was a fantastic host and she made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend staying here to anyone visiting Vermont. Best VRBO stay to date

Cozy Cabin

My wife and I enjoyed our stay in cabin #1, secluded and peaceful yet close enough to wonderful restaurants. I enjoyed kayaking and fishing while my wife emersed herself in her art. The cabins are beautiful with all of the modern conveniences and Wendi was a great host. We look forward to our next stay.

Beautiful…Sad to Leave

We stayed in Cabin 1 for three nights for an event at Ascutney Mountain. It’s a short scenic drive to Ascutney Outdoors Center. The cabin was pristine. And the area is so peaceful. One of the boat launches is less than a two minute walk down the dirt road. Our son spent time fishing there. The cabins are situated so that you are not looking at each other keeping a feeling of privacy!

Cabin is lovely!!!

Loved everything - the cabin, hot tub, fire pit. Wendi is lovely annd very responsive! I can’t wait to go back. Only caveat is we were looking forward to kayaking and the pond does look really pretty, but the pond is 0.2 miles away and my car couldn’t fit the kayaks. The road is dirt and gravel so you could cart them but it seemed too far for me.
