About this property

Sun drenched cozy cottage on budding 17 acre homestead

Wannagetaway? Nestled in the hills of old Vermont, our remodelled studio cabin provides the perfect opportunity to unwind and reconnect. Full kitchenette and outdoor grill allow you to engage your inner foodie while enjoying your favorite glass of indulgence. From sunrise coffee on the front porch to sunset libations on the side porch glider, Sol is bathed in light all day. A natural birch 4 post bed with linen sheets perched in front of the fireplace will seamlessly melt you into dreamland.
Semi secluded sitting area in grass field directly behind cabin with fire pit and another fire pit located near our brook for you to enjoy (Firewood available for purchase).

We live in a very peaceful and rural area of north central Vermont which provides a great mix of quiet and privacy, but is also with in an hours drive to most of the states interest points. There are 16 ski resorts within an hours drive, as well as breweries, State Parks, lakes and more. Fine dining is available within 30 minutes in multiple directions. Sitting at just over 1600’, we are in a unique microclimate that sometimes get a bit more snow than our surrounding towns. Our neighborhood is all tree lined winding dirt roads that weave along a tributary of the White River. Take a walk up the road to our closest neighbor who has a lovely Gotland sheep farm. The sheep and their guardian llama Alaska are typically grazing right by the road in front of the main barn. Kim is also a brilliant fiber artist and occasionally teaches various classes so please feel free to inquire about those if interested. Continue up the road to the dead end and turn left for breathtaking sunset views. If you're looking for something a little more sweaty, grab your bike or head out on a run "around our block" (about 4.5 miles) that takes you around and down to the bustling river, then leads you on a steady incline to an enchanted foot trail that winds up the hill and back around to the top of our road. Dirt roads abound and we're happy to help you figure out a path to explore =) We are also close to several snowmobile trails should you be inclined to stay with us while traveling the VAST.

My fiance and I LOVED this cabin. It was up on a mountain in the woods and was exactly what we were looking for. We will definitely be back!

Magical!
This place is absolutely beautiful. The pictures you see online are pretty but once you get there you are going to realize that the place is perfect. From the location, to how perfectly decorated it is. La casita del sol is definitely the ideal definition of coziness. But my biggest highlight about this property are the owners. We felt protected like if we were in our own house. We felt home. They took care of every single detail and made us feel extremely comfortable and special. During our stay our car broke down and we got stuck in Vermont. And what we thought it was going to be a nightmare ended up being a beautiful trip just because of the help Keith and Erika provided. I’m never going to forget about this place. And I can’t wait to be back! Book your dream getaway at La casita del sol, trust me - you won’t regret it. And to Keith and Erika: Thank you. Sending you love and many blessings your way!

Lovely respite
I had a peaceful and lovely five-night stay at the casita. The property and surrounding area were so beautiful—even if I was a little late for the leaves. I love Vermont—I got such a good feel for the industriousness and creativity of Vermonters as I drove around the state. I plan to come back—I have a long list of things I wasn’t able to do this trip.

As a family, we decided to leave the comforts of our suburban shore community and venture here in hopes of connecting to nature as we build a loving homestead. Our dream for this property is to become a regenerative, self-sufficient, organic farm where we grow and nurture the land and ourselves simultaneously. In the years to come, we envision fruit and nut trees, permaculture, gardening and a small family of animals to share our space. We want our kids to be connected with the natural rhythms of nature learned from our land and the surrounding area. At the same time, given our rural setting, we also hope our cottages will bring an expansive and diverse group of people from whom our kids (and we) can learn and evolve with.

Why they chose this property

The location and lay out of this property spoke to us. A small house to keep us close, cottages to share life with new people or family, a babbling brook to sing us lullabies, open acreages to raise crops or graze animals, barn/work shop, maple trees for sugaring, berry brambles and woods for exploring.
Far enough from convenience to learn patience and planning, but still a short drive to civilization when needed. It is quiet here, and safe. Neighbors are genuine and kind. The woods are still wild (fox, bear, moose, coyotes) and the region is simply beautiful.

What makes this property unique

Plans include adding a game room/social area for both cottages to enjoy. Visions of natural swimming pools and sauna are also in the works. Trails through our diverse woods and possibly some rustic forest accommodations may be in the works as well. We'd love to hear your ideas too!
