About this property

Log Cabin In The Woods

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.

The perfect weekend getaway

We loved our time at this cabin in the woods! The property was beautiful and we enjoyed walking along the water along with sitting in front of the fireplace. Being here truly allowed us to escape the ‘real world’ for a long weekend and we are so appreciative!

Cabin in the Woods

If you are looking for a quiet, secluded place to get away from it all this is the place for you. Very quaint and relaxing. We enjoyed our time here. It has a babbling brook you can hear from the screened in porch. Good internet connection. Walking trail thru the woods.

A cozy cabin in the woods

We enjoyed our stay SO much! The cabin was comfy and cozy. It was stocked with everything we could possibly need. It was a 25 min ride to Manchester which was great! We shopped and went to dinner there. We definitely plan on returning.

Great stay

Absolutely great Vermont log cabin experience. Loved the stream, cabin and property. We have been coming up to the area for over a decade. Both for VSF and off-season. Steve and family provided a great experience for us. He reached out during our rental to make sure everything was ok.

Wonderful cabin!

The pictures really do not do this sweet little cabin justice! It was just what my husband and I were looking for. It was very clean, quiet and quaint! It made us want to buy a log cabin in Vermont some day, but until then we will definitely be going back to this wonderful place! Thank you Steve and Nancy for making our stay so amazing! Our only regret was that we didn't stay longer!

Lovely cabin on the river in quiet area

We had a relaxing visit to this very clean, cozy cabin. The cabin is about a 20 minute drive to Manchester Center for groceries, etc. There are many hikes within a 30-minute drive. Sitting on the back porch and listening to the river rush by at night was our favorite activity. The cabin has a wonderful wood burning fireplace. We loved our stay!

Beautiful cabin in the woods

Surrounded by beautiful nature, cabin was welcoming and cozy. Steve is a great owner and very caring as well. We were there 7 nights/8days and it rained for 3 days but we found other things to do other than hiking and enjoyed ourselves. Only wish there were ceiling lights in the bedroom and the living room, it is quite dark to read or play games. We would visit this place again.

Lovely house with babbling brook

This house is surrounded by trees and a babbling brook -- nicely set back from the road. Worth the trip just to spend time on the great screened in porch, listening to the brook and the birds. The kitchen is well designed, completely equipped, and well organized. Good hiking trails nearby at the Merck Center, Dorset, etc. and also a converted rail trail behind Rupert.

Weekdays get away

Steven , the cabin and property were all great. We learned a lot about the region on this trip. If not from around the area do some research for the area. Map/atlas would be useful. The phone service for trying to do anything spontaneous on the move including eating out was frustrating.

Quiet Vacation - Enjoyable

Property gave us what we wanted, a quiet vacation in the woods of Vermont for 2 retired couples. Screened in porch was perfect for sitting around after dinner. A few nice restaurants a short drive away with no traffic to contend with. Cabin was supplied with everything we could need for our stay. The host was a pleasure to work with, providing much information prior to our arrival and checking in with us after we settled in to be sure all was well. Would not hesitate to return to this Cabin when we decide it's time to return to Vermont. Thanks Steve for a very nice place

Well-Loved Cabin in a Peaceful Location

Overall great stay! We used the fireplace every night and had plenty of wood the entire time. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and the place was well kept. Lighting in the cabin gets a little dark at night (especially if cooking), but it adds to the cozy atmosphere if you’re just relaxing. We did find a used Q-tip on the bed when we arrived, but outside of that, the cabin was clean. We would recommend this place for anyone who wants a nice relaxing stay away from the loud responsibilities of everyday life.

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.

6 out of 5 stars - we loved this cabin

We had a *super* time at this cabin. Very secluded, a small trail right out the back door, lots of trails a close drive away, and a perfect, cozy space to spend time together when it's raining or you need a break. We came for our honeymoon, and enjoyed sipping tea on the porch as the brook went by, reading by the fire at night, and enjoying the outdoors during the day. The kitchen is very well stocked; there was nothing we needed but couldn't find. Overall it's clear this is a loved and well thought out home - not just a place to rent - that is a joy to stay in. You could in theory have a lot of people stay here, but it's great for 2, as you don't need to use the upstairs or downstairs space with all of the twins at all.

Christmas Vacation

The Spirito family cabin felt like ours for the week. It was fully equipped with anything and everything you need. So many beds, so many games, so many memories made on this trip. Beautiful piece of property with lots of quaint towns to explore near by. The NY border is just minutes away which made it fun for our kids to check another state on the vacation list. And total added bonus for hiking enthusiasts, the AT trail is right up the block. We saw trail heads all over the place for it. Super cool. Thank you for sharing this gem with us. Much appreciated.

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.

What makes this property unique

The setting brings you down a few notches when arriving from the city or suburbs.
