Nice but...

The idea of the cabin was wonderful but it had a lot of quirks. First, you had to bring your own sheets and towels. Second, there were cobwebs from 1974, and having all the mouse traps around the cabin was not romantic. Then we had snow and the driveway was only half plowed so you couldn't turn around and go down the driveway nose first, you had to back down the driveway and then the power went out. Finally, you hoped all the electrical wiring was to code because there were outlets and plugs everywhere.

Family friendly cabin

What a great host and stay. Gene welcomed us with news of the local winter carnival and we had a blast with kids riding in a horse drawn sleigh and on mini snowmobiles. Kids loved the cozy cabin. I loved the vibe, cabin made me nostalgic for a stranger things episode ;)

Cozy Cabin

I spent the weekend at Eugene’s cabin and it was exactly as described in the listing. The cabin was very clean and was well stocked. The woodstove kept the house really warm and there was plenty of firewood. We will definitely be back again.

Anniversary Weekend in the Woods

We had a great time at Gene's cabin. It was small and homey and perfect for our getaway. The singing deer head by the fireplace is great fun and we enjoyed sitting on the front porch with our morning coffee watching the leaves fall. It is easy to find and near quite a few amenities while still feeling remote. The kitchen had everything we needed to make dinner our first night there. Be sure to sign the guest book and be surprised how long Gene has been renting this cabin out!

Enjoyed My 2nd Stay Here

Just spent my second time at this cabin having previously stayed here in Fall 2022. It's in a great location and is already stocked with supplies and tools. Tons of hiking trails in the area and Chester is only a short car ride away. Warm in the fall and cool in the summertime. Great view from the porch as well. Plenty space for one person but also a good amount room for a family or multiple people. Host has been helpful and communicative every time I've stayed here.

Fantastic cabin

My group and I loved the beautiful cabin in Chester VT. It was a perfect location to ski Okemo and it had all of the right amenities for us. The town of Chester was cute and we appreciated all of the information provided by Gene for not only the cabin but also the village. Would recommend!

Wonderful Retreat

We rented this cabin to celebrate our 30th Anniversary. Gene was a very thorough host informing us of impending weather and keeping us informed at all times. He left us a nice note and a wonderful bottle of wine. The cabin is so well laid out and cozy we enjoyed the snow and exploring the beautiful town will definitely rent again Thanks Gene !!!

Quirky Cabin Perfect for a Winter Ski Weekend

The cabin was exactly what we were expecting and just right for our ski weekend at Okemo. Gene was there to greet us and show us around the cabin. The cabin is definitely rustic, with a beautiful view from the front porch, warm inside and plenty of entertainment options for tired evenings. The kitchen was just enough for quick after-ski meals. Would choose this cabin again.

Great winter stay!

We had an amazing time at Gene’s cabin! It was charming and cozy. We were in Chester to ski at Magic Mountain and Okemo, and the drives were pretty quick. We had planned on going out to eat, but both nights we were too happy to make a fire and watch a movie to leave! We will definitely try to come back

Great Ski Weekend at the Cabin

We enjoyed our stay at the Cabin. It is conveniently located near Magic Mountain, Okemo and Bromley. We enjoyed the location, very quiet and relaxing. Woke up each morning to sip coffee and watch the birds at the feeders on the front porch. Gene was fantastic with providing all of the details for check-in and our stay. Also, we enjoyed dining out in Chester and met very nice people. (Note: restaurants are small, so either make a reservation or dine during non-peak hours). We can certainly see why Gene picked this location to have a getaway cabin. We would stay again.
