About this property

Upscale Cabin 1: hot-tub, private firepit, complimentary kayaks + paddleboards!

Sugar Maple Mountain Retreat blends upscale comfort with the beauty of Vermont’s preserved forestland—offering three custom 2023 cabins perfect for small families seeking a refined nature getaway. Each cabin features soaring windows, heat + A/C, an open‑loft bedroom, and a fold‑out couch ideal for kids or additional guests.

Your stay includes plush bedding, down pillows, robes, spa‑grade toiletries, and a fully stocked kitchen with spices, dishware, paper goods, and cooking essentials. Coffee options include drip, K‑cups, and refillable pods—while little ones enjoy hot cocoa by the fire.

Outside, families can gather around the private fire pit, grill dinner, or relax in Adirondack chairs. Complimentary kayaks and paddleboards make lake days effortless, while hiking trails, quiet country roads, and VAST access offer endless exploration. In winter, bring skis, snowshoes, or snowmobiles; in summer, bikes and fishing rods.

The large 24/7 hot tub is perfect for unwinding after a day of adventure, and the campus washer/dryer (available after 4pm) adds convenience for longer stays. At night, enjoy extraordinary stargazing—an unforgettable experience for kids and adults alike.

A luxurious, nature‑rich retreat where families can reconnect, explore, and relax together.

About the host

Hosted by Wendy Wachtel

Host profile image
I arrived in Vermont in 2016 as a DIY creator, using my own spaces for home‑improvement projects and design work. Before long, my little rental side hustle blossomed into something bigger. I took the leap and built Sugar Maple Mountain Retreat: a trio of boutique cabins nestled deep in the woods, designed for comfort, creativity, and cozy Vermont living. Today, I’m proud to call VT home and to host guests year‑round in Ludlow and Cavendish.
