About this property

Charming A-frame in the Heart of the Green Mountains

Close to some of the best skiing, hiking, and biking in the state. Just 15 minutes to Mad River Glen ski area. 25 minutes to Sugarbush Resort and the Mad River Valley. The Long Trail is a 6 mile drive to the top of the Appalachian Gap. Close to Middlebury (30 mins) and Burlington (40 mins). The quaint town of Bristol is only a 10 minute drive. Located among the trees on a quiet, dead-end country road. Sweeping views of Camels Hump and Sugarbush mountains are a short walk down the road.

Cozy and comfortable. This 2 bedroom, 1 bath classic a-frame has been fully renovated with all new appliances (including a dishwasher), new hardwood flooring, updated bathroom, and new beds and linens. The kitchen is fully equipped to prepare delicious meals. New heat and air conditioning systems will keep you comfortable in any temperature.

The 1st floor bedroom has a new queen bed. The upstairs enclosed loft has 2 new single beds that can be converted to a king bed upon request. (Steep ladder stairs leading to the loft make it unsuitable for young children and people with mobility concerns).

The A-frame is perfect for a romantic getaway, as a base to enjoy your favorite outdoor activities, or an escape to the woods for rest and relaxation.

What a GEM !

Perfect place to unwind and relax. I couldn't have asked for a better space to enjoy the solitude of my thoughts. All new appliances and flooring made the A frame feel brand new. Thank you, Rebecca.

Excellent vacation stay!!!

Highly recommend this home for your visit to Vermont. Extremely clean, cozy, and the owners went above and beyond with the amenities. There was even a night light left to use at night in the bathroom if needed. The view of the Fall leaves was magnificent. We were very comfortable in the home and we had just a short drive (40ish minutes) to all of the towns/places that we wanted to visit. Three days here wasn’t long enough. We truly hope to be back one day soon!

About the host

Hosted by Rebecca Todd

Host profile image
We are John and Rebecca and recently retired from careers in finance and aviation. We now enjoy full time all that Vermont has to offer. We are avid skiers and long time pass holders at Sugarbush ski area. In fact, John has been a ski instructor there for many years. We also spend time sailing on Lake Champlain, biking throughout the state, and walking the many paths and trails close by. When we’re not in Vermont, we take road trips throughout the country visiting family, friends, National Parks, and other interesting sights.

Why they chose this property

We lovingly renovated the A-frame over the past few years. It has been a fun Covid project. We kept guests in mind as we made updates to ensure a comfortable, restful, and enjoyable stay.

What makes this property unique

Legend is it that the a-frame was built as a display house for the 1965 New York World's Fair (we haven’t been able to verify this). It was transported to its current location in the 1970s as a ski house for a group from Long Island. As the current custodians of this unique house, we welcome others to experience its charm and wonderful location.
