Please review the House Rules, Important Information, and About the Host sections prior to booking this home.
A modern, chic retreat for nature lovers
Sterling Treehouse is a stunning custom-built modern cabin perfectly integrated with the surrounding forest. Sited on 40+ acres overlooking Sterling Valley, it was designed to bring the outside in while masterfully interacting with its native surroundings.
The intention of this remote cabin is to bring families (or friends) together to enjoy the majesty of the area. The cabin has two large bedrooms with king beds and floor to ceiling windows, a bunk room that sleeps five, a great room with a table to seat 10, large screen TV, a Bang and Olufsen music system, and the deepest soaking tub you'll ever find. The home is primarily furnished with handcrafted American made furniture and has bike storage, ski racks, and boot warmers to encourage families to get outside. To start or end the day, enjoy a two-level patio with a Stahl fire pit and insert for wood-fired grilling. Take in the spectacular views of the adjacent forest and Green Mountain ridge lines while you relax in nature.
At your doorstep, you'll find hiking, cross-country skiing, and mountain biking trails, a 19th-century cemetery, and old stone walls and foundations from the long-gone Sterling settlement. There is a snowshoe trail winding through the forest on the property, and within walking distance from the house you can access the Sterling Gorge (an amazing place to hike, ice climb, or just enjoy the waterfalls), the VAST trail, the Catamount Trail, and the Sterling Forest mountain bike trails. The cabin is a 15-minute drive from the village of Stowe and 25 minutes from the ski resort—take the back roads and skip the mountain traffic!
Top bunks are not suitable for adults. Pets are not permitted at this property. Winter in Vermont brings snow, icy roads, and occasional storms. An AWD or 4WD vehicle is strongly recommended to book this property. Please drive carefully and ensure your vehicle is properly equipped for winter conditions.

The Treehouse was amazing. The architecture, appointments, and setting all made for a relaxing and rejuvenating stay. The check-in process was effortless.
Thank you for staying with us at Sterling Treehouse and for sharing your feedback. We are so pleased to hear you enjoyed the home and its location.
We also appreciate the note regarding the WiFi. Mountain settings can occasionally create inconsistencies, but reliability matters, and we will be reviewing the network performance to strengthen coverage and stability for future stays.
My dream house is a glass house in the woods so it was a no brainer to rent this one. It was a stellar house esp staying in the peak season of the Fall! The heated floors, the surroundings, floating staircase, comfy beds, and perfect bathtub. We immensely enjoyed our time in Stowe despite the rainy weather. Highly recommend this house!
We had a great stay at Sterling Tree House! Really lovely house. It is a little out of town and on dirt roads but if that doesn’t bother you, go for it! We also had a nice walk down the road for hiking and the gorge. Also, it says one bath but there is a powder room on the first floor with the bunk beds.
The windows, the views, the out-of-the-way-ness but really only being a few miles outside of Stowe...the Treehouse is an amazing place to stay. We hope to return before too long!
A friend and I booked the treehouse for a relaxing girls weekend away. This property did not disappoint. It had everything we needed and more. Was clean, spacious, comfortable and soooo relaxing. No cell service but the wifi worked great. The perfect place to relax and unwind.
The property was beyond incredible. The house is beautifully and thoughtfully designed, cozy and totally private. You feel like you’re in another world among the treetops! We can’t wait to visit again!
Great experience right from the booking. Pictures of the house don’t do it justice - it was such a unique experience to stay at this property.
