Northwoods Guest Cabin and firepit & porch overlooking private woods and stream

Northwoods Guest Cabin is a tiny-house with a sleeping loft. The steps to the sleeping loft are steep, so if you have mobility issues, this may not be the best choice for you. The back porch overlooks the woods and a flowing stream. There's a small kitchen and bathroom. The house has a private entrance as it is a stand-alone guesthouse. There is WiFi, though it can be finicky up here. The kitchen has basic spices, pots/pans, and dishes. There are starbucks coffee and tea set-ups. The bathroom is stocked with toiletries and towels. Note that there isn't a dishwasher or washer/dryer. You'd be close to cross-country skiing and hikes at the Craftsbury Outdoor Center, Craftsbury has two general stores. There are three public libraries in our small town. Nearby, we have eclectic museums; Bread and Puppet Museam and Theater, The Museam of Everyday Life, The Highland Center of the Arts, The Old Stonehouse Museam is a cool destination in summer as is Craftsbury Historical Society on the Common.

We are a 40-minute drive to Lake Willoughby State Park, 30 minutes from Elmore State Park, 10 minutes from Barr Hill Conservation Area , 45 minutes from Stowe restaurants, including Trapp Lodge and bike path. A bit further to Mt. Mansfield and from Jay Peak.

There are multiple dining options. The Black Bird Bistro is the favored gathering place, though the Highland Lodge serves food as does both of our General Stores. We have a seasonally delightful option, Hinterland, which features 1st class homemade food as well as selling the most eclectic sundry of items anywhere around. Willey's is a favorite gathering place for groceries, hardware/clothing...with the motto, If You Can't Find It at Willey's, You Don't Need It. Parker Pie in Glover (over the mountain) features a wild array of draft options and The Best Pizza. Hardwick is about 20 minutes from the cabin and features the primo coffee house in the area, The Front Seat. There's also the best breakfast at the Diner in Hardwick, and Positive Pie is consistently delicious. Morristown also has many shopping and dining options and is about a 30 minute drive. Greensboro, where Willey's is, is about 10 minutes away as is the Farmstead Brewery. Barton, 30 minutes away, is where Parker Restaurant is and offers more casual but finer dining. We love it there. You'd be about an hour from Jay Peak and all it has to offer.

I can go on, but I'll stop there. For a town of 1000, I'm struck by the richness of beauty, recreational options, culture, and rural landscape right here! Enjoy!

My Weekend in Vermont
Gwen and Larry were excellent hosts from start to finish! The property was everything as described, plus more. The communication with the hosts were direct and speedy with responses, an attribute that made our weekend even more enjoyable! From the cute landscape surrounding the cabin, to every aspect inside that was available for us. I look forward to hopefully making more trips back to this quaint destination for an escape from the hustle of Jersey!

This property was gorgeous! My husband and I needed a quiet and peaceful place to just rest. We didn't want to hear traffic noise or neighbors. It was perfect for us and we came away refreshed. The stairs to the bed were challenging in the night, but we did fine. Thank you!

Quiet, Serene Getaway
This sweet little cabin is absolutely delightful! It is small, but it contains everything you could need, and if it is not there...the hosts are extremely accommodating and helpful. There was a vast array of books, maps, and brochures in the cabin for all things local to the area. They came in handy during our stay, as our cell service was very sketchy, so having the maps was great. The bed was very comfortable, the shower was hot and had great pressure, the everything in the cabin worked as it should. A real treat is sitting out on the back porch in the evening and listening to the babbling brook below. A truly peaceful spot to relax. You can tell that Gwen and Larry really put their hearts in to this cabin, and the property itself. Staying there, amongst the stuff they have collected over time and placed in the cabin, made it feel very homey and comfortable. We will for sure stay here again when in the area. Also...BONUS, they have a super cute and friendly dog !!
