Cozy Cabin on Chimney Hill (Close to Mt Snow)

Charming 3 bedroom cabin nestled in the woods at the top of Chimney Hill on Haystack Mountain, a 15 minute drive from Mt Snow Ski Resort, with a newly renovated kitchen. Our cabin offers a cozy living room with a pellet stove and sliding glass doors overlooking a private deck backing to forest. Guests enjoy access to Chimney Hill's Clubhouse (indoor pool, hot tub, outdoor heated pool, game room and fitness center), and a stocked fishing pond, ice skating rink, hiking and snowmobile trails.

Our cabin is located near the top of a mountain in the Chimney Hill area in Wilmington, Vermont. Chimney Hill is a unique family-centered community of private homes nestled on a wooded hillside bordered by the Green Mountain National Forest and surrounded by a four season recreational area.

Our Clubhouse is the social center of the community all year round, and it is about a half mile from our cabin. The clubhouse has an indoor pool and a hot tub, a heated outdoor pool during summer months, a game room with a pool table and arcade machines, a fitness room, and much more. Our renters have access to the Chimney Hill Clubhouse and all it offers. Also within the Chimney Hill community is a stocked fishing pond, outdoor ice skating rink and warming hut (skates available free of charge), hiking, snowshoeing, x-country and snowmobile trails with some homes having direct access to the Vermont Association of Snow Travelers (VAST) trail system. Our cabin is a short walk from the entrance to the Haystack Trail.

Historic downtown Wilmington enjoys a beautiful natural setting and a close-knit community. The compact village center is full of independently owned shops, Inns and restaurants. We are surrounded by lakes, mountains, and forest, with miles of hiking trails (some accessible right from downtown). Wilmington celebrates farm-to-table culture, with many local restaurants offering the best of the bounty of the land. Local boutiques round out a selection of gifts, homewares and clothing including specialty stores such as Quaigh Designs, Incurable Romantic, The Vermont Bowl Company and the Norton Quilt House.

Our cabin (as we call it) was built in 1972 as a rental property to support nearby ski resorts. Even today there is no mail delivery on our street! And there are also no fire hydrants on top of the mountain! (So, please no smoking in the cabin - it's important) Dawn’s father purchased the cabin with some other family members in 1989 to serve as a family gathering place and a rental property. Many members of the family enjoyed the cabin and the Wilmington area for years. Dawn’s dad let her know that he was selling it in 2019. So, we decided to purchase the property to keep it in the family! And then, we began a renovation of the cabin - much of the work Tim has completed himself! And wow, it’s been a lot of work. We have enjoyed the process - it’s been almost magical to watch it unfold! There’s a lot of heart in this home, and 4 generations now in our family have been enjoying it over the past 30+ years. We hope you enjoy your stay at the cabin.
