I absolutely loved the place. I’ve rented a variety of homes in Vermont to go skiing and this had to be my best experience. It’s a remote home and the front stairs can be challenging to go up and down due the snow but what a beautiful place with all the charm of a home deep in the winter beauty of Vermont.

Wonderful Stay!

My husband and I had a lovely stay in Barnard at the cabin. It is rustic and very charming! There are some stairs to climb and some low ceilings in the bedroom but it has a wonderful warm and cozy feel and I would recommend it.

Beautiful setting

Even though it rained our entire stay, we thoroughly enjoyed the peacefulness. The view from the deck overlooking the falls and creek to the pond and the rest of the property was amazing. Everything inside was very clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

Love this cabin!

My family and I just finished a lovely stay at this perfect cabin. We were absolutely charmed by every aspect of this place, from the pond in which we swam and canoed every day, to the small waterfall that runs through the property, to the beautifully appointed cabin with fantastic views, great linens and a well-stocked kitchen. We would highly recommend this property for anyone who wants a great getaway.

Excellent place to relax!

Hearing the waterfall while enjoying the night sky next to the fire melted any stress we had away. The place is a perfect cozy getaway from the world's noise. We had a great time canoeing and hiking in the area. Woodstock delivers on excellent dining. A great time!

Beautiful and relaxing vacation experience

This property was exactly what I was looking for...a quiet, comfortable, beautiful spot to relax and explore the outdoors. From hiking/biking to reading in the hammock listening to the waterfall, all of my needs were met. The town is very quaint and has several amazing restaurants. The owners are a wonderful family willing to go above and beyond to help. I highly recommend this little piece of heaven to anyone looking for a getaway!

Wonderful time in Vermont!

We had a wonderful stay at the cabin. Listening to the waterfall next to the cabin was so peaceful. The pond was so much fun. The kids really enjoyed the beach and kayaking.

Stunning location, well equipped and comfortable cabin

The cabin is in a stunning, secluded location with beautiful views down a tree-lined valley and over the lake. The cabin has a very spacious and comfortable first floor living space. The bedrooms are a tight squeeze - the photos on the listing give a fair view. Woodstock, 15 mins away is a beautiful town and great for restaurants and shopping. We visited in the Fall and the colors were INCREDIBLE

Beautiful view, peaceful, great location.

We were looking for a rental in Barnard and this was a perfect location. The home is situated on a hill overlooking a pond. The loft for sleeping doesn’t have much headroom, but I enjoyed waking up and feeling like I was a treehouse. Loved the hammock, spacious kitchen, and radiant flooring in the bathroom. We hope to return again!
