Light-filled retreat in Mad River Valley with internet & deck

Welcome to an end-of-the-road Vermont retreat. Feel far away from it all, yet have easy access to all the amenities of the Mad River Valley.

Surrounded by hundreds of undisturbed acres of forest, this custom-built home offers an idyllic landing pad for nature lovers and adventurers.

Explore Vermont's sweeping wilderness with ease with direct walking access to the VAST snowmobile trails, the Boyce Town Forest, and one of the area's nicest swimming ponds. Burnt Rock trail and the Appalachian Trail system are minutes down the road. Winter recreation abounds. Cross-country skiers and snowshoers find plenty to explore straight off the porch. Sugarbush Resort and Mad River Glen are only 12 and 10 miles away.

A warm and welcoming place to come home to, the house has comfortable radiant heat and is filled with natural light. Timber framing, natural wood finishes, and large windows make the space both cozy and airy. The open kitchen and dining room invite pleasant family-style cooking and relaxing.

Calm your mind while enjoying the living room's scenic picture window or head for one of the bedrooms and gaze out at Vermont's seasonal colors. The home's conveniences include a well-appointed kitchen, radiant heat, cast iron soaking tub, private washer/dryer, Roku TV, and internet.

A beautiful and peaceful home

The house had plenty of light, both from windows and fixtures, and a beautiful, peaceful location. Appreciated the tasteful decor and thoughtful choice in dinnerware and appliances. Also appreciated the selection of fragrance-free, natural soaps, shampoo/conditioner, cleaning supplies, etc. We can't wait to come back.

Cozy, comfy, bright, clean and beautifully laid out

This home is nestled in the high VT hill country. It is beautifully constructed and has lovely furniture and decor. This is a very peaceful and comfortable environment. It is a beautiful get away and the two bedrooms and shared bath are inviting and relaxing. The heated floors are such a treat. The kitchen is easy and has all the basics to eat in or make take/bake simple. My compliments to the owner on her thoughtful design and lovely decor. Lots of parking. Well cleared road upon entry. Beautiful view towards the ski mountains and lots of cool views out every window to the boreal forest. We hope to return again to explore the hiking. Definitely want an all wheel drive car to get up the roads that lead to this “lovely little Nirvana in the mountains.”
