About this property

Our cabin is on 11 acres, and we have only one neighbor in the summer only. The cabin is on the side of a private mountain at 1300 feet elevation so there is an entire mountain to hike or snowshoe(all sizes available for your use). Our porch overlooks a brook that passes right by the house. Because it is remote, cell phone service is spotty at the cabin, but you can use WIFI calling or the land line, we stream TV and have a ROKU and smart TV if you have Netflix/Amazon Prime/HULU etc. subscriptions. WiFi is good unless you are streaming and on phones and computers at the same time. There are sleds , snow shoes and snow tubes as well.

The Cabin is 10 minutes from Great Sugar Houses (Maple Syrup Weekend end of March), and Artisan and Dairy Farms (There is a Vermont cheese weekend and the dairy farms give tours). In 20 minutes you can get to Manchester (18 miles), Bromley Mountain is 25 miles, The Norman Rockwell Homestead in Arlington and another terrific general store are about 15-20 minutes away. In Dorset there is a great marble quarry for swimming; about 15-20 minutes.

Saratoga Springs is about 35-40 miles and the drive is not bad if you want to see the horse races or go to the mineral baths.

There are all types of board games and a pool table in the lower level. There is also a laundry room in the lower Level.

The kitchen is fully applianced right down to coffee grinder and garlic press.

Bedroom on the main level has a queen bed, the Lower Level bedroom has two twins and the upstairs bedrooms have 4 twins in each but comfortably sleep two adults in each. Because we are on the side of a mountain, the lower level is a walk out and bedroom has a window.

Our driveway is long and steep, so we recommend an AWD vehicle in the winter months.

We are sure you will enjoy the cabin as much as we do.

Peaceful Mountain Retreat

WOW! When we arrived we were immediately taken back by the incredible setting of this log home. The owner makes it very easy for arrival, with lots of notes and information about the home and the area. It was nice to sit and read the lovely notes that previous guests had left for them. The home is very clean and inviting, instantly putting our minds at ease. We had expected it to be a bit more rustic, but they have literally thought of everything to make their guests more comfortable, and the kitchen is very well appointed. Our favorite spot was the screened in porch off the living room. We found ourselves there each time we were at the house, as the creek that runs past was soothing and relaxing. You could simply feel the stress of life disappear at this home. There is a little country store not far up the road that is so adorable, and this home is very convenient to Dorset, must eat at the Dorset Inn, and Manchester Village. There were three of us, and we each took a bed on our own separate floors. We especially loved the shower in the bottom floor, as the entire bathroom is tiled as the shower. The house is full of games, a pool table, and a wood burning fireplace, none of which we had time for, as our visit was far too brief. We have all agreed that we need to book our next Vermont trip soon, and hope that Steve and Nancy will have us back, but next time we must stay longer to get to enjoy more of their home. Thank you again for a memory that will last a lifetime.

Cabin in the woods

This was our 2nd year staying at the cabin. The owner, Steve, was readily available and contacted us to make sure all was good. There was ample firewood and the fireplace is excellent. If you wanna shoot some pool or throw darts, etc. this is the cabin to be in. The kitchen is well stocked. This is a good home base as it’s close to Mt. Snow, for snowmobiling, a few resorts for skiing and any other outdoor activity you’d like to do. If shopping is your forte, Dorset and Manchester are close by. We look forward to visiting Vermont ext year.

Property location very nice. However cabin was infested with flies which was extremely annoying and made our stay very unpleasant. Although the location was presteen we won't be renting in the future.

Log Cabin in the Woods - Vermont

Very nice place and enjoyed our stay. We mostly cooked in for our dinners which is a nice feature, food allergy issues. Weather was cool how we like it though a bit rainy. The stream was so relaxing while sitting on porch and could do our morning Self-Reiki. Fireplace was awesome and enjoyed very much. Wish there was more history about the place and land it is on. Maybe next time lookup a more in-depth about the history of the area. Forgot to mention I am sensitive to smells so laundry detergent with scents is no-no for me.I would recommend people to stay here it is secluded though we didn't find that a hindrance.

Why they chose this property

We traveled to the area multiple times and decided to purchase. We spent 10 years improving the property to a point where we feel we can finally arrive and not feel compelled to work on improvements. Although we seldom come without completing a chore or two.
