About this property
Mountain hideaway w/ private waterfall & sugarbush
Newly renovated farmhouse in the heart of Stowe's Nebraska Valley, steps away from one of the area's oldest family-owned maple syrup farms. This peaceful, wooded hideaway features a private backyard waterfall and offers all the charm of rustic Vermont with updated touches in a beautifully designed space. 15 minutes from Stowe Mountain, 10 minutes from Stowe's downtown shops + restaurants, and just minutes from Trapp Family Lodge + 44,000 acres of state forest hiking trails.

THE PROPERTY
Our home is nestled on a rolling knoll, amidst 12 private acres of sugarbush and a falling brook that runs right through our back woods.
Enter through the walk-in basement, where a mudroom offers the perfect spot to kick off your hiking boots or stash your ski gear after a day on the trails. Just beyond, you’ll find an bonus hangout space that transforms into our third bedroom—complete with a queen-sized sleeper sofa. There’s also a full laundry room on this level if you need to freshen up your gear mid-stay.
Walk up to the main floor, where picture windows let in abundant light and frame valley views. Our living area includes a fully-equipped kitchen with new appliances, a cozy wood-burning stove, an entertainment center with a Smart TV that turns into art when not in use, and two built-in workstations perfect for remote office setups. Comfortable seating and a Sonos sound system are featured throughout the house.
On the third floor, you'll find two additional bedrooms with queen-sized beds and luxury linens. Cozy up in the primary bedroom's cushioned reading nook or get productive at the second bedroom's extra writing desk. The upstairs bathroom has a rainfall shower head and bluetooth-enabled speaker fan that offers mood lighting.
Head outdoors to sip your morning coffee on our wraparound porch, grill and enjoy meals in the open-air dining setup, read a book on one of our sun loungers, or enjoy an evening of s'mores by the fire pit. With a sloping acre of wildflowers, lilac bushes, and more, our yard is a true pollinator's paradise — all punctuated by the peaceful sounds of our babbling brook.
Looking to learn more about our neighborhood and the surrounding area? Check out our Guidebook! The Nebraska Valley is one of Stowe's true hidden gems, perfectly off the beaten path but close enough to all of the area's major attractions and sites.
Next door to us is the Nebraska Knoll Sugar Farm, which has been tapping sugar maple trees in the foothills of Mt. Mansfield—including the trees in our backyard—for decades. Walk over for a free tasting and tour, where you can learn how the sugaring process works, explore the evaporator room where sap is boiled, and purchase the finest syrup Vermont has to offer.
And if shopping and dining is more you're thing, we're only a ten minute drive to Mountain Road and Main Street so you can still enjoy the amazing perks that our quintessential resort town has to offer.

IMPORTANT NOTES
~4WD DURING WINTER MONTHS~
From December through March, 4WD or AWD is highly recommended to access our property. Our home is situated at the top of a gravel road and driveway, which can present challenges for 2WD vehicles during the winter.
~CELL RECEPTION & WIFI~
Also note that, due to our secluded setting, we have limited cellular service. Our WiFi signal extends well beyond our house, but you will likely lose cellular service upon your entry into the Nebraska Valley. To mitigate any communication challenges, we recommend toggling on the "Wi-Fi calling" feature on your mobile device. This feature allows you to make and receive calls and texts over a Wi-Fi network, ensuring you can stay connected even in areas with weak or no cellular signal. Note that we also provide guests with a set of walkie-talkie's to use when exploring the woods and waterfall!
~BACKYARD WATERFALL~
Behind our house, we have 12 expansive acres of woods with an incredible falling brook and waterfall feature. The terrain can be challenging, as our property extends up a wooded knoll. There is also no cellular service in the woods. Walkie-talkies are provided for use while exploring.
We allow our guests to explore the natural beauty of our property, but ask that you venture and explore the surroundings at your own comfort level. Please take the necessary precautions and navigate the area with safety and care.

About the host
Hosted by Mimi Hammer
We are creative freelancers living on the road part-time out of our Sprinter Camper Van. We love traveling to other parts of the country and renting our spot in Stowe when we're away, giving others the chance to visit and explore the bucolic beauty of northern New England. While originally from the Boston area, we are now proud call the Green Mountain State home.
Why they chose this property
The Nebraska Valley is one of Stowe's true hidden gems, perfectly off the beaten path but close enough to all of the area's major attractions and sites.
What makes this property unique
Next door to us is the Nebraska Knoll Sugar Farm, which has been tapping sugar maple trees in the foothills of Mt. Mansfield—including the trees in our backyard—for decades. Walk over for a free tasting and tour, where you can learn how the sugaring process works, explore the evaporator room where sap is boiled, and purchase the finest syrup Vermont has to offer.
The road that runs through our valley also features some of the best-kept hiking, biking, swimming, boating, fishing, snowshoeing, cross-country, and back-country skiing in Stowe. Explore the Cottonbrook and Waterbury reservoirs by kayak or SUP, hike the Lake Mansfield / Nebraska Notch Trail, or ski and snowshoe the thousands of acres of groomed and untouched terrain.
