About this property

Orchard Cottage - A mountain retreat

Orchard Cottage was lovingly restored a couple of years ago to a very high standard. It is decorated in soothing autumnal tones with very comfortable beds and lots of locally sourced antiques and artwork. It sits on a 20+ acre family estate that backs on to the wild and untouched Roxbury Mountain. Our main family home and cottage sit further up the hill affording you with complete privacy.

Orchard Cottage has 2 bedrooms and a den with pull out sofa. It comfortably sleeps 6 people.

The Orchard Cottage was a wonderful respite in the snowy woods of Vermont

A great home with good access for two excellent days at MRG and fine restaurants. The only problem was not wanting to leave the fireplace at Orchard Cottage!

Wonderful Winter stay

We had a great post Christmas stay at Orchard Cottage. The cottage was even more quaint in person, with everything we needed for our stay. The high quality bedding and linens made for a cozy stay. We enjoyed lots of family time by the wood-burning fire - our favorite part of our stay by far. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home! The Hicks Family Concord, NH

Cozy cottage

Beautiful home, great location. Beds were very comfortable, very clean, well stocked kitchen. Shower was awesome! Very charming and nicely updated. Our only complaints would be that it would have been nice to have a little larger of a tv, and the cleaning fee was a bit high considering we were required to take sheets off the beds, wash the towels, run the dishwasher, and take out the garbage.

Wonderful ski weekend retreat!

We have stayed at Orchard Cottage three times and will be back! It is a charming and peaceful cottage nestled in the Vermont woods. Perfect for ski weekends - beautifully decorated, great kitchen with magnificent views, working fireplace, and close to Sugarbush! Both the owner and local property management are on top of the details and maintain the house to a high standard.

Cozy ski season stay

We enjoyed our stay at this property during the holiday ski season. It provided clean and ample space for our family of two adults and two children. The location allowed easy access to Sugarbush and Waitsfield. Having the East Warren Community Market down the road was very convenient. Our kids enjoyed playing in the open yard space.

ORCHARD COTTAGE

Beautifully decorated and impeccably clean renovated antique house nestled in the woods near Sugarbush/Warren center. The beds/linens were extremely comfortable, kitchen fully stocked with necessary and brand new utensils/knives/appliances.

Charming Antique Home

We loved our stay in this beautifully restored antique house. The beamed ceiling and the antique floors along with lots of windows made a day sitting by the fire while it snowed outside positively delightful. The lovely mountain road where the house is located were ideal for an enjoyable walk in the snow. There were plenty of restaurants nearby and of course great skiing at Sugarbush just 20 minutes away.

Wonderful Girls Weekend in Gorgeous Setting

Our group of 6 women had an extraordinary weekend retreating to this special cottage. The house was beautifully appointed with plenty of space/privacy and the mountain setting was the perfect location for an early fall getaway. Nearby Warren Village is vintage Vermont with the Pitcher Inn (excellent dining/bar area) and General Store (necessities and wonderful gifts). I look forward to returning to the Orchard Cottage with my family as soon as possible!

About the host

Hosted by Heidi Ringsted

Host profile image
Having originally purchased the main house next door, we jumped at the chance to buy Orchard Cottage when it became available. With a growing family, we needed space for all of our friends and family to congregate during the holidays. We live overseas but visit several times a year to ski, play in the Mad River, hike in the Green Mountains and be at peace in this really beautiful spot.

Why they chose this property

Orchard Cottage is nestled into a ridge on Roxbury Mountain in the middle of the Green Mountains. Set below the main house beyond the apple treehouse and the orchard. It has it's own driveway and is completely private.

What makes this property unique

This cottage would be perfect for a small family or a couple looking for a unique Vermont getaway. The setting is very peaceful and romantic and the furnishings extremely luxurious. Whether you plan an active break taking advantage of all that the valley has to offer or you are seeking a cozy retreat to relax and watch the foliage change or the wild turkeys and deer roaming through the orchard, Orchard Cottage can supply all of that!

Old Roxbury Road is a private road and a 4WD is a must even though it is plowed continually throughout the winter.
