About this property
Private Forest Cabin near Appalachian Trail, Manchester, and Ski Slopes
Welcome to my Vermont home in the trees. Just a few minutes from the Appalachian trailhead, Bromley, Stratton, and Manchester Center's adorable downtown, your stay here will reconnect you to the nature and activities that define life in the Green Mountain State.
The upstairs has the main bedroom, a full bathroom, and an expansive open living room / dining room / kitchen with a large window and a slider to the deck, which looks west toward Mount Equinox and each night's sunset.
When the trees have foliage (mid-May to mid-October), our home is totally private, leafy, and feels like a tree house. Hang the hummingbird feeder and watch them go crazy. Make a bonfire and enjoy a barbecue on long summer nights.
On still winter nights, the moon lights the snow and you can hear the wind blowing tinkling snowflakes across the landscape. An even clearer view of Mount Equinox comes into view, and Spruce Peak, on the Appalachian Trail, is visible from our skylight.
Downstairs, another full bathroom, as well as another living room and three bedrooms, round out the property's interior.
Both floors are steps away from outdoors, and light streams in each evening with the sunset.
We love to come here with our dogs to hike, cook, and hang out in the yard. We think you will too!
New for 2026 in response to guest feedback: air-conditioning/dehumidifier heat pumps upstairs and downstairs which I can control remotely when the home is empty to keep humidity low before you arrive. I also expanded the dog fence around the fire circle to encompass most of the back yard.
