Don't hesitate on this Wonderful Gem!
My family (with 4 of our children, ages 5-11) had the pleasure of staying in this wonderful cabin earlier this month. There was so much to do in the area – all within 20 minutes of the cabin, but even if you wanted to just get away from it all, this piece of paradise provides the perfect setting.
The house, an older log cabin with all its charm, is immaculate and well-appointed with just about everything necessary for a perfect getaway. The kitchen is open to the eating area and family room for family bonding. We were delightfully surprised when we walked in to find the kitchen table elegantly set, as if someone were expecting us. In fact, the décor and comfortable feeling of the entire home welcomes you like a warm hug from the owner. It feels very much like a home away from home – the kind you wish you owned yourself.
Off the family room was a short hall with a full bath, laundry room/storage closet, a bunk bed room (4 beds total), and queen bedroom. Upstairs, the master bedroom is perched among the trees with windows on 3 sides (very private but also open to the treetops and sky, so you feel like you’re in a majestic treehouse). The king size master also has a full bath. All the mattresses were very comfortable; we all had great sleeps and woke up refreshed.
I would recommend this charming cabin to just about anyone. It is ideally setup for a larger family like ours, but is also suited for a couple families getting together or a group of friends looking to getaway.
About the area: Check out Dorset Quarry; Hiking (we did the Lye Brook Falls and a pond at the base of Mt. Equinox); Outlets (Orvis does fly fishing lessons); Hildene (Robert Todd Lincoln’s estate). I think Bromley is the nearest ski mountain - we’d love to return to this cabin in the winter time to experience another season there. I’d imagine it would also be a perfect getaway during foliage season!
The owner, Bobbie, has a true gift of hospitality, which combined with her interior design skills, truly make this the "picture perfect Vermont Log Cabin".
In case you couldn’t tell, we loved the cabin and highly recommend it!
