Absolutely Perfect
I can't say enough about how wonderful this cabin is. Every part of it was well planned, from the furniture to the drinking glasses. It's cozy with all the modern amenities. The view is outstanding and the "neigh"bors are friendly and a special treat for horse lovers. Check in was a breeze and the cabin was very clean. Can't recommend it enough!

Weekend ski trip
We had a very pleasant stay at the cottage while on our quick ski trip to okemo. Cottage has the most beautiful morning views, probably the best I’ve ever had at a rental property in VT! Driveway and deck were shoveled and roads were plowed after any fresh snow, and cottage was very cozy.

Wonderful Winter Escape
This was a great little space, especially for my wife and I. We had planned to have several side trips, but it was so cold and the fire and the view kept us happily inside. We cooked several meals in the cabin and then enjoyed the view.

Amazing, Cozy Ski Cabin
stayed here for a weekend while skiing at Okemo (25 min drive or so). Was perfect for our small group and had all the basics to cook at home as well. The horses across the street from the property made our day and were super friendly. We also loved the fire place. Would absolutely stay here again.

Our favorite winter getaway!
This is our 4th year in a row renting this house for a winter vacation. Our family loves it and we'll be back again next year! The house is well equipped for a family, we've been bringing our son since he was 3. Dog friendly too! It is small, but very cozy and has everything you need to prepare meals and hang out, as well as laundry for longer stays or emergencies! Always very clean and well maintained.

Great stay from start to finish. This vacation was just what the doctor ordered. A much needed destressor, no political nonsense. Bailey, the dog was a pure joy, as were thehorses.

Relaxing cottage
The cottage is clean and good size for our family. We enjoyed sitting in the dining room and looking out to the slope with beautiful view. We got to play sledding too. Bathroom is clean and kitchen has full cookware and utensils. Beds are comfortable, I am able to gain more sleep than on my own bed at home. We went to nearby mountains for skiing, also tried out some good local restaurants. The place has beautiful decoration, feels very cozy. The horses that are in the barn by the entrance are very friendly. We all had a great time, and would definitely come back.

We spent ten days at this Vermont cottage. The host always responded quickly. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed. The views from the deck were perfect for viewing the beautiful Vermont fall foliage. We highly recommend this cottage for anyone looking to spend time in Vermont.

About the host

Hosted by Dawn and Robert "Sam" Brown

Host profile image
We are Robert "Sam" and Dawn Brown - Sam was born in Vermont and I moved here when I was 13. We met in 8th grade and fell in Love. In Vermont you learn to reconnect with your friends, neighbors and family. It will be the most uplifting downtime you will ever have. Our two horses are generally right across the street and are very friendly as are all the neighbors. Don't worry about the road in the winter they keep it very well plowed and sanded. the picture is of us at Phelps Barn in Grafton VT on Christmas Eve.

Why they chose this property

It is the setting. Nestled away but open to a wide spectacular view. Horses, mountains, open fields and woods with a brook down on the lower road.
You get the sun in the morning and nice shade during the afternoon while you are out on the deck grilling .

What makes this property unique

DIRECTIONS - heading North on 103 into Chester keep going straight as the road turns into Route 11 go about 5.5 miles on Rte 11 then turn right onto the Chester/Andover road go 3/4 mile and just before the road starts to bend turn right onto the Potash Brook Road which is a dirt road. You will come to 2 forks, on the first go right and the second go left. all the dirt roads are dead ends so you can't get too lost. It is about 1.5 miles on the dirt road. You will see the white horse fence and big ARROW
