Fantastic! We absolutely enjoyed our time at the cottage. There was everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. From all the movies and games that you could want along with a warm and peaceful environment. The owners thought of everything so there was no need to fuss . If you are looking to get away and relax this is the place for you. We left relaxed and very content with our stay .

It was perfect; the directions were clear, every little detail was attended to. The views of the foliage from every wonder were spectacular, and the night sky was breathtaking.Shampoo, conditioner, bodywash in bathroom, ample selection of DVDs, puzzles, and board games. Very peaceful. Cozy yet spacious enough. Easy to check in and check out. Hope to come back before to long!

Perfect cabin for our ski weekend!

My son and I spent 4 nights 5 days up in VT and thoroughly enjoyed the cabin. It was the perfect size for the two of us, two bedrooms 1 full bath, nice living room with a wood fireplace, kitchen and dining area. We ate in three of the evenings, grilled steaks one night.Communication with Craig was very responsive and informative. I found all the listing information to be accurate. The home is located off the beaten path, very private, a beautiful area.I would recommend it to anyone looking for a rustic cabin with most amenities of home!

Relaxing, cozy getaway

We loved our stay at this cozy cottage. It was exactly the private getaway we needed and a bonus that we could bring our 2 dogs! The house was very clean, well stocked, and comfortable. River Bend Farm Market is only 12 minutes away and had everything we needed to cook dinner each night. We spent most of our days at Mount Snow, and took the extra drive to Okemo for one day. Everything about this trip was wonderful. We hope to be back again!

Cabin in the Woods

We loved this cabin in the woods. This was our second stay here. More than enough room for my wife and I and 26 year old daughter. Beautiful and rustic with a working wood stove and plenty of wood on hand. Kitchen is well stocked. Be warned that road access is a little challenging - steep unpaved road to get there - but our non-4x4 minivan could make it. Lots of good hiking in nearby Jamaica, and the neighboring small towns are charming. Craig was a great host and very responsive.

Good place to be snowed in.

This was our second time staying here, and we were surprised by quite the snow storm on Thanksgiving day. Ended up with over a foot of snow and the wind was howling at times, but we were tucked in cozy with the wood stove. We never lost power but lost Internet for most of the day of the storm as it is satellite wi-fi, but there is a vast collection of movies we could choose from to pass the time. The house was clean and the host responds to messages very quickly. We very highly recommend this home for anyone looking for some peace and quiet.

Cozy cottage

This property is really “in the “woods” We enjoyed our stay, so peaceful. The foliage was beautiful. There was a lot of DVD’S to watch, no cable or regular channels. There was also a record player with many albums to choose from. Comfortable mattresses and pillows. Very well equipped with everything you need to prepare a meal at the house. River Bend Farm Market is about 15 minutes away and it has ready to go food, sandwiches, everything you need to find at a grocery store. Great communication with the owners, they replied within minutes to all my messages. The furnace works great , it warmed up the cottage really quickly. We went to a few towns near by, Grafton, Bellow Falls, Manchester, Brattleboro and we drove to St. Johnsbury (2 1/2 hrs) to visit the beautiful Chapel at Dog Mountain.i recommend to go there and also the Vermont Country Store in Bellow Falls. We had a very nice time.

Great little retreat

My wife and I were looking for a nice cottage in the woods, and this place was perfect. It was only a few minutes from the main road, but felt like we were in the deep woods. It had a charming feel of a backwoods cabin with all the amenities needed for comfortable living. There were plenty of great hiking trails within 30 minutes as well as a number of quaint Vermont towns. It was the perfect spot to get away for a long weekend.

Just perfect

Lovely home and property. My husband and I stayed here with our two dogs for a long weekend of peace and quiet. And that's exactly what we got. There is a trail that loops behind the house through the woods that is a perfect little run to exercises the dogs. The home itself is clean and cozy and we felt very comfortable. The host is very quick to respond and keeps the house stocked with plenty of necessities, there's even little soaps and shampoos in case you forgot something. We definitely hope to return when the weather is cooler so we can enjoy the lovely fireplace.

Great Place for a Secluded Retreat!

Stayed here to celebrate a birthday, hang out with friends, and go to Stratton. The house was amazing. We really enjoyed the record player and relaxing by the wood stove. The property was kept nicely and the home was very clean. The house had all of the standard things that are typically needed. We look forward to staying there again next year.

Cozy and charming

This was one of the best-stocked of any VRBO, which made it easy to get dinner together when we were snowed in. We only wish we hadn't been on such winding roads as it was not that easy to get to the ski resort. But there was sweetness to x-country skiing the property and we LOVED the turntable with all the great albums.

The cottage was cozy and in a peaceful location away from everything and well equipped so we were able.to just come and enjoy. Great place for a family like us with a dog she had plenty of land to run around on and there isnt much traffic to worry about. The owners were wonderfull the communication was great we loss power from a strom the home was well equipped with generator to ensure are stay was not interrupted. This place isn't for everyone but if you want to get away and be with nature this is your place.

Lovely house. Enjoyed sipping wine in front of the fire, letting dogs explore the "back yard" and listening to the great album collection. We took advantage of the off-line feel even though we were able to get all we needed with the satellite wifi. Easy drive to skiing. Kitchen had everything we needed. Great place to kick back and relax.

Get Away from it All

Lovely, secluded cabin in a beautiful area of Vermont! The dirt road access was a bit of a challenge due to several very muddy patches, so do heed the owners' recommended prohibition against non-SUV vehicles. The cabin is delightful! The beds are comfortable, the decor tasteful and the fireplace is so comforting after being out in the snow. Our dachshund loved being away with the family! The owners were very quick to respond to our questions. The neighbor's work-yard spotlights were the only drawback to this cabin, as they detracted from star-gazing, but we would definitely stay here again! We had a wonderful time in this charming and comfortable home!
