Vacation

The cabin was very spacious on the inside while the areas on need(kitchen, bathroom) were easy to access. The ceiling had some cobwebs and there were many flies inside on the upper level. The front and backyard were cut nicely. Overall, the cabin was enjoyable to stay at.

Craftsbury Fall 2024

Spent 5 days with my dog in the NEK. The Sunset Cottage was a perfect home base to explore the area for hiking, sightseeing and visiting surrounding towns and villages. The property yard was perfect to enjoy the crisp early autumn weather and play with my dog. The cottage provided all the amenities needed for my stay.

We had a lovely stay. The cottage was clean, comfortable and well appointed. Really the area. Only comment, we were notified in writing, upon arrival at the cottage that the tap water was unsafe to drink. Advanced notice would have been very helpful and appreciated.

Lovely place

A very sweet, clean home in a great part of Vermont. Truly in the middle of the woods. Lots to explore. Craftsbury is a charming blink-and-you'll-miss-it town with an excellent general store (The Genny). Hill Farmstead Brewery has incredible beer; sit out and enjoy. Swimming in Caspian Lake to cool off. John is an available and communicative host. Am hoping someone will get back to me about the jeans I accidentally left behind but no biggie if not. Definitely a special place from which to explore the NorthEast Kingdom!

Quiet Northeast Kingdom escape

My husband and I had a relaxing trip with our old dog. We went to Dog Mountain in St. Johnsbury, about 50 minutes away. We also had a nice short hike at Lake Willoughby. The host was responsive about our arrival and directions. We had no trouble finding the place. The Genny in Craftsbury has just about everything you need, with super nice people and hot coffee in the mornings. The Willey's Store also had way more than you expect. Both were worth the trip (we got a steal on a gallon of maple syrup at Willey's!). It was raining for a bit of our stay so we didn't get out as much as we'd hoped, but it was a great visit to Vermont.

Nice stay in Vermont cabin!

We were in town for a wedding and spent two nights at "Sunset Cottage." It is exactly as described; a small, clean, comfortable cottage. The wifi was good, the house was clean, and the location was good. We mostly just slept at the house so didn't use the kitchen/appliances (other than coffee maker) or the outdoor grill, etc., but they all looked great. Could be a nice place to hang out and relax; comes stocked with board games, books, etc.; we just didn't use any. The only comment - follow the directions you get from the host in your email to get to the house! We initially only entered the address into Google Maps and it defaulted to "Craftsbury", but the house is in "Craftsbury Common", so it directed us a few miles up the road to the wrong spot! But the directions in the email are exactly right.

The cottage was super relaxing- we loved that there were woods around the property but not too much to be concerned about wildlife. The Genny in town was amazing!
