We had an absolutely amazing stay! The property had every amenity you could think of, making it feel like a true home away from home. The views were stunning, and the hot tub was the perfect way to relax after a day of exploring. The host was incredibly responsive and accommodating, which made everything seamless from start to finish. The pictures don’t do this place justice highly recommend!

This was the perfect place, properly sized with amazing views. Our group consisted of 8 adults and we had plenty of room for meals, fire side chats, and sleeping. Heard numerous times from different guests; “Great place”, “I’d love to come back here”, and on the way out “Going to miss this”.

BDAY getaways

We had a great stay with a family of all ages. Celebrated two of our teens bdays! They enjoyed the hot tub and all the space within. Great sleeping options with 6 comfortable beds. Instructions for the kitchen lights over the table and the theatre screen downstairs would have been helpful but we did figure it out. Really enjoyed our stay at this VRBO!

About the host

Hosted by Mike Ferro

Host profile image
I first fell in love with the Sunday River area and Bethel Maine in 2014 during a ski trip getaway. When I had a chance to come back again in the early summer to do some hiking, I was amazed with how much Maine had to offer. I spent nearly two years searching for the perfect piece of land to build Vale Cabin and happened across one that offers privacy, incredible views, and is close to Bethel and Sunday River.

Why they chose this property

In one word, the View. Vale Cabin was built to take advantage of stunning Mount Washington views while coexisting in-harmony with the land. This Energy Star Home is both eco-friendly and unbelievably comfortable no matter what season you visit so you truly can enjoy the great outdoors from within. Perched high-up off Intervale Road the home is close-to-it-all and yet private.

What makes this property unique

No detail went overlooked. Much of the material in the house is sourced from local timber, including the beautiful heavy timber stairs. And, when I couldn't find the right bathroom vanities or tables, I created them from large log slabs. Pottery Barn couches offer comfort and upscale style, while bedrooms feature ultra-comfortable hotel-quality mattresses and luxurious linens. Vale Cabin offers an incredible experience you can’t find anywhere else in the Sunday River and Bethel area.
