  • When visiting Woodstock, Vermont, one not-to-miss outdoor attraction is the Marsh - Billings - Rockefeller National Historical Park, the first National Park in Vermont. The site is full of ambient trails with different atmospheres, whether you want to summit a mountain, run through a field or picnic on a lovely lake. Here you see The Pogue, a 14-acre (6-hectare) lake, featuring mountain reflections and beautiful Great Blue herons hungry for bass fish. For me, this spot was pure heaven in Vermont. #travel #AmazonDestinations #spon

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.

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.

Escape to peace and quiet

If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of life. You can enjoy this secluded home. Lovely pond with kayaks and canoe. Listen to the stream while relaxing on the deck. Great weekend getaway. We truly enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

Beauty of Nature

This is my third stay here. It's a wonderful cabin and property for nature lovers! The lovely deck is a perfect place to take in the surroundings. A pond, a waterfall, a fire pit and a cozy cabin, totally private, what more could you ask for? If you have physical limitations, just be aware that you have to walk up a small hill and some stairs from the parking area and the spiral staircase inside may be difficult to navigate for some.

We love out of the way places. This one qualifies. Very isolated, yet not far from Woodstock and other great places to visit. Well stocked. Comfortable and clean location.We didn't visit the small pond at the bottom of the hill. But it looks like it would be good fun, especially with children. Saw kayak next to a shed. Didn't explore what else was there.Would stay here again. Two items to be aware of. The path from the car park area to the house consists of uneven rocks up the hill in a step-like set up without rails (kind of neat actually). However, it is a climb - should not be a problem unless someone is physically impaired. My wife had sprained her knee on a hike, and it made it a bit difficult.Also, the main bed is up a narrow metal spiral staircase. Again, not a problem, unless impaired. There is a couch that could be let out into a bed downstairs.We enjoyed the place and would visit again.

Gorgeous spot

This home is in a gorgeous, private spot. There is a bridge over a small waterfall to get to the house! We loved hearing the water, the great views out the front windows, the comfy sitting areas and the heated floor in the bathroom. This might not be the best choice for guests with mobility challenges, as the outside steps might be tough and there is a spiral staircase inside to get to the bedrooms. We had no trouble at all and loved the fairytale quality. The bedrooms do have low ceilings but we didn't have any trouble with that either. Easy drive to Woodstock. Loved it!!

Beautiful and relaxing

The property is beautiful and very quiet. There are a few steps to go up to the cabin from the parking, it's a little steep but nothing too intense (probably more challenging with snow?). There is a little pond with a turtle and small fish where the waterfall drops. The cabin itself is beautiful and modern on the inside, a cozy living room, a tv room (Roku with some cable), a large patio in the front, the stairs are a little small but solid, the rooms are not huge and there is the slopped ceiling but we didn't mind. Note that the loft if not accessible to guests (I think it is because the railing is pretty low). Total there is a double bed in one bedroom, 2 single beds in the other and a pullout couch in tv room. The kitchen is well stocked compared the other rentals(a few spices, oil, coffee, vinegars, sugar), lots of dishes, pots, pans, utensils, a Keurig machine,french press, teapot. The washing machine was out of order when we visited, but that wasn't something we needed. Shower is big and the heated tiles were wonderful. Everything was super clean. There is a slight smell/taste (nothing major) to the water, so bring some if you are bothered by that. The "swimming hole" or large pond was so nice, we spent a lot of time in the water and by the water. There is a canoe, an adult kayak, a kid kayak and a paddle board. We tried all of them and really enjoyed it. The grass has taken over the sandy part of the beach, but it was still pleasant. We would come back anytime!

While the property was lovely on the ground floor, there were features that should have been more clearly pointed out in the listing that would have influenced our decision to rent this particular property. Specifically, the height of the bedroom ceilings and the condition of the stairs from the parking area to the cabin. The listing should state that it is not appropriate for most renters with chidren or physical limitations.

This house is lovely, peaceful, and secluded. It’s a wonderful place to stay if you want to enjoy nature and explore the surrounding area. The only thing I would say as a word of caution: this house is not a great choice for people with very small kids or older folks. The staircase up to the bedrooms is not for the faint of heart! Also, if you are very tall, you might knock your head (a lot) on the ceiling upstairs. Besides those two caveats, this house was a lovely stay.

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.

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.
