This is a beautiful place and built incredibly well. The pictures are beautiful and the place is even more so. I am not one to sit still but it was such a nice environment that I spent a few hours on different days simply enjoying being there. We will be back!
Absolutely perfect, David was spectacular. The cabin was amazingly clean- it felt like walking into your home. He was so generous and considerate with supplies. One of the absolute best places we have stayed!
Our stay went well. We stayed two nights, a night before and a night after a bicycle tour. The home is well equipped and comfortable. It was also very quiet.
We had a great stay here for our snowboarding trip! Far enough away from the main Killington area without being too far away. Property manager was awesome and HIGHLY recommend the massage therapy that is offered as well. Very quiet, clean and lovely place to stay. We'll be back for sure.
This was such a great place to stay. So unique and inviting. We actually cooked a lot here instead of going out to eat because it was so relaxing and such a romantic setting. It was one of the cleanest rentals we have ever stayed in. Can't say enough positive things about this place.
Unexpected illness ultimately cancelled our trip; however, the owner was very accommodating and worked to keep things as smooth as possible. Kindness and great communication.
Lovely home. Very nicely stocked refrigerator, breakfast items, fruit, etc. Set off from Rt 7 but if you are looking for total solitude you will hear the traffic. I would highly recommend as David Allen was a generous host.
I didn't want to leave! Beautiful place with such a rich history. I loved waking up on Saturday morning to play the grand piano. Forgot how much I loved it. Very clean and David made the process as smooth as possible. Our only complaint was the bed needs an update, sinks to the middle. Thank you David!
Lovely a place to stay. Quiet and convenient for our weekend. Air conditioner kept bedroom cool but with the hot weekend it struggled in the lower floors to keep comfortable. But never bad. No TV, and slow internet so we used our free time to explore the area. Plan ahead if that would be a concern. But would definitely stay again.
The place is spotless and very well equipped. The host David was very helpful with ideas for dinner etc. And was very thoughtful with items he left for guests in the kitchen. It is a very relaxing setting with a lovely deck for taking in the outdoors and listening to the birds. The location is perfect for an easy drive to either Brandon or Middlebury - both lovely towns. The only drawback is the bed upstairs can only be exited from one side which can be difficult if people need to get up during the night.
We were visiting family in nearby Brandon. The space was perfect for our needs. Kitchen was set up with breakfast items and fridge had eggs, bread, milk, water, and basic condiments. The piano was a treat and allowed me to work on some preparation for a concert in the coming week. David is a very attentive host and the story behind the place is fascinating.
My husband and I couldn't have been happier at Camp Tiger Ted. Our host was wonderful in every way, welcoming and responsive to us, clear about caring for his beautiful property, and helpful whenever we reached out. It was a bonus to have the lovely piano, which I took advantage of on several occasions. We visit this area of Vermont often and we certainly will consider staying again, and we've already recommended it to others!Thank you, David, for such a delightful visit.
We stayed here for 2 days. We travelled from Virginia to vermont for a Graduation. The house is warm and inviting as soon as you walk in. It was immaculate and had all the instructions for the house readily available . He has a awesome story and photo album of the back ground to his home. Would definitely stay again.
It was such a lovely stay. Everything was super tidy, clean, comfortable and cozy. We especially loved reading about the story of the build. Would absolutely recommend!

I am a massage therapist, swing dance teacher & motivational speaker. The log cabin on the property has a complete massage studio where you can schedule a massage. I do Swedish style massage therapy with hots stones. I charge $70 for a hour plus session. The many early reviews are from my listing in Charlotte where I used to live.
