This lovingly built off-grid glamping cabin is drenched with sun! It’s absolutely gorgeous! The kids enjoyed pumping their own water and sledding down the front hill. Paris is an excellent hostess- she answered all our questions very promptly & thoroughly. We cant wait to come back! Thank you!!!
This cabin is a cozy gem; it had all of the necessities. The location is wonderful to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of daily life. It is rustic, but the outhouse was not an issue at all. Loved walking with my dogs in the morning; would definitely return.
The property is along a well maintained dirt road, which our little EV had no trouble navigating. The cabin stayed very warm, and with no neighbors around it was very peaceful. We had no cell service at the cabin but the wifi worked well, and the hosts provided great communication. Our family had a great time.
We had a really nice time staying with Paris! Cozy, quiet and beautiful! The place was clean, organized and the personal touch and accommodations made it even better. Will absolutely be back!
The remote location makes for an incredibly peaceful setting. The cabin has the necessaties and a few luxuries, but the solitude you get is everything.
Overall everything was exactly as advertised, just be sure to read all of the details of what the ‘glamping’ experience entails
Was forced to leave a few days early due to the freak flooding and was offered a one day reimbursement
All in all a great experience
Beautiful property, quiet, clean and rustic. Close proximity to Okemo mountain and excellent restaurants. The host was very responsive, and makes the transition to glamping seamless! I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a secluded getaway, solo or with close friends.
We wanted a quiet, cozy cabin, surrounded by nature and close to nearby downtown areas. This little gem of a place was just perfect in every way. The dogs also loved it!!
Great place to break away from big city. Winter ladscape was wonderful. Cabin is confortable and host was good at communicating. We recommend the place
Off the grid with solar power and propane heat with some really cool gas powered lights and a wonderful fireplace. So close to skiing. Our hosts were accommodating and really friendly.
We’ll be back for sure!
I had a wonderful, relaxing vacation at this secluded cabin. I thoroughly enjoyed the fireplace and simple amenities, like cooking atop the fireplace and drawing water from the well. Bed was comfy and place was clean. Could do with a comfier chair by the fire, but that would be my only want, certainly not a need. Thanks again for the hospitality and great communication from the hosts.
Enjoyed the sort of off grid experience. Good WiFi and enough power for lights etc through solar. Water situation was fine — enjoyed the hand pump. Shower worked well. Plenty warm. Would stay again.
Had an amazing time at this cabin while skiing Okemo. Great ambiance. Super cozy and private. Paris and Eric are Greta hosts. Read the description before booking so nothing catches you off guard.
We had an excellent time at this cabin. We are frequent campers and weren’t afraid of “roughing it” a little. Plenty of light and adequate WiFi. Very warm and cozy in the winter. The composting toilet was a convenient alternative to the outhouse. The owners were great to communicate with. We’ll be back!
This was a great place to stay! The house was clean and cozy. Instructions on how to do everything was clear and the location is incredible. Its tucked away off the road so that you're surrounded by forest. The driveway is a bit steep so we parked at the bottom which was a good idea since it snowed ~30 inches in the two days we were there! The wood stove is a great addition to the heater and the supply of wood from the hosts kept us plenty warm. We would happily stay again!
Beautiful, remote property in the Green Mountains. Incredible off-grid location!
We loved our stay! Paris and Eric are the best hosts; there was good communication and helpful preparations for our arrival. When we got there, there was kindling in the wood stove set up and ready for us to start the fire. The cabin was warm and cozy and it was nice to relax, rest, and recharge there after skiing at Stratton Mountain. I love how remote and isolated the area is. The sounds of the river are so peaceful and the nights we were here were beautiful and tranquil. The instructions that were provided were clear and everything was exactly as described in the listing. I'd definitely reccommend to anyone who is looking for a private and secluded off grid getaway in VT. So grateful for this awesome lodging experience! Would love to come back to stay here again!
Séjour très reposant et sans aucune nuisance sonore.
La cabine était très propre et chaleureuse; l'environnement était très agréable.
La seule chose difficile a été de s'habituer aux toilettes rustiques...
La propriétaire a été très gentille et compréhensive car, suite à des problèmes à la frontière américaine, nous avons perdu une journée de location qu'elle nous a remboursée, alors qu'elle n'était pas obligée.
Très belle expérience.
