About this property

Rustic camping cabin on 360 acres with 2 lakes and trails, sleeps 8

Escape to Ripley Hill cabin at Forest Echo. The cabin sits on a hill just above the Farm Pond swimming hole, which you can just see through the trees. Caretakers assist during your stay and can suggest local spots. Hike to the lake for shared canoes/kayaks.There is NO WiFi OR ELECTRICITY at the cabin. You can't charge your devices at the cabin. Ask if you have a medical need to power a device while on property. Everything is gas, wood, solar, or hand powered. BRING YOUR OWN BEDDING (pillows, bed linens, blankets) and TOWELS. Bring your own food. NO HOUSEKEEPING, PLEASE LEAVE A CLEAN CABIN FOR THE NEXT GUESTS. Expect camping and the outdoors and you will love it; expect glamping and electricity and you will be disappointed. The "office" listed above is actually a screened porch with a queen-bed; wake up to birdsong! Full indoor bathroom plus an outhouse. Kitchen: solar-powered refrigerator, gas stove, and a sink. All kitchen gear provided. Hot and cold running water inside. Wood stove and a fireplace in the main room. LP gas lamps and solar lamps provided. The cabins are rustic and clean. The luxuries at Forest Echo Farm are not inside the cabins; they are found in the light that fills the forest in late afternoon, the silence of an evening canoe on Tiny Pond and the moonlit sparkle of dewdrops at midnight. Forest Echo Farm includes 360 acres, extensive shore to a 26 acre protected pond, numerous trails, and half a mountain.

About the host

Hosted by Linda

Host profile image
Forest Echo Farm was founded in 1969 by two families to provide a rural family retreat. Over the decades the organizational membership has grown to include other families and individuals committed to conserving this Vermont property. The founding principles continue to guide us as we work towards our goals of preserving and maintaining the land, enjoying it, and sharing it.

The Forest Echo Farm community is dedicated to preserving our land, maintaining a balance between our human presence and the natural character of the forest, lakes, and mountains. Through the Vermont Land Trust, we have set aside 80% of our land to ensure that it will never be developed.

What makes this property unique

Family Owned
Forest Echo Farm is owned by a cooperative group of families and individuals who are committed to the values of simple living and the preservation of our environment. Forest Echo cabins offer a relaxing retreat where you can unplug and reconnect with family and friends.

Rustic and Comfortable Cabins
No power lines cross our property, no electricity reaches our cabins. We have no blaring screens to distract us from the sound of the wind in the leaves or to call us back to the whirl of modern life. But that does not mean we are without any of the comforts of civilization.

Each cabin has hot and cold gravity-fed running water, a gas stove for cooking, gas lights and even a solar-powered refrigerator. The cabins are rustic, but clean and airy. The luxuries at Forest Echo Farm are not inside the cabins; they are found in the light that fills the forest in late afternoon, the silence of an evening canoe on Tiny Pond and the moonlit sparkle of dewdrops at midnight. Forest Echo Farm includes 360 acres, extensive shore to a 26 acre protected pond, numerous trails, and half a mountain.
