This was a great little getaway for the two of us and our Australian Shepherd. We were all very comfortable and enjoyed walking on the roads near the property in the morning and evening. We used the cottage as a base for exploring Bennington, Walpole and Rutland. The kitchen and bathroom were well maintained and had everything we needed.

The oven is very old and needs to be lit manually. We would be happy to assist if you need help with the appliances in the future.

It was an excellent place to stay. Super comfy and quiet, falling asleep to the sound of the creek. Well equipped with everything you need. Good fast wifi. Excellent value for the money. Great place if you want to really get away from it all.

This cabin was the perfect spot for our family! We were looking to get away from crowds over the holiday weekend, and this place delivered! Beautiful location on a brook, close to hiking, and just a great stay. Pet friendly - love that the deck was fully enclosed so our dog could join us out there without being tied up! Michael even delivered fans for the bedrooms due to the heat wave, which were GREATLY appreciated! Very responsive host.

This place is simply fantastic. If you are looking for quiet...and I mean ABSOLUTE quiet...this is your place! Nestled just five minutes south of Readsboro, VT, Brookside Cottage is the place to get disconnected and just breathe a bit. Our family needed this place...I needed to be here...with our kids growing up so fast, now at 14 and 11, my wife and I just wanted to have a few days to be together, play some games, watch some movies, and enjoy each other's company. I'm convinced we found the place that we will return to for years to come, and regardless of the season, we'll find happy memories together here as we made this week. Michael was a fantastic host from booking to even thanking us for being there! You won't go wrong with this gem, hidden in the beautiful and breathtaking silence of southern Vermont.

Nice walk in the snow near the cottage
The creek behind the house had opened a bit, even in the cold weather

My husband and I LOVED this cabin! It was the perfect size and had everything we needed for a quiet get away to unplug and hear ourselves think. The property was so serene and quiet and just beautiful. We can’t wait to come back to this hidden treasure.
