About this property
3 cottages near lake.
Vacationing at May Brook Falls Cottages gives you the opportunity to relax, unwind, and enjoy a slower pace.
These recently renovated cottages are nestled along May Brook in Barton, Vermont, across the street from Pageant Park Beach on Crystal Lake.
Situated on over an acre of land, there is plenty of room for camp fires, lawn games, running around, and just enjoying nature. At the back of the property is May Brook Falls, a beautiful waterfall that sets the soundtrack to your stay.
Until recently, these cottages were privately owned and rarely rented. We were lucky enough to purchase all three in Early Spring 2021. Our goal is to provide small gatherings of guests with a comfortable private stay along the brook with all of the natural beauty Vermont has to offer.
The lake is mostly obscured from view in the summer by trees and a few RVs, but you are a 1 min. (or less) walk from the Pageant Park which sports a well maintained, sandy beach, and about a half mile from the state beach. Both locations have bathhouses and charge a small daily use fee.
We have completely renovated all three cottages. Enjoy an eclectic mix of antique furnishings along with new beds, bathrooms and kitchens, smart TV's and wifi! Your stay also includes punch card access to the permit only Pageant Park beach. Check in is anytime after 4 p.m. and check out is 11 a.m.
Dogs are allowed, 1 per cabin. We ask that you please clean up after them.
After booking, we may reach out to finalize all details such as number of guests, in order to provide guests with the best possible stay.
Considering these cottages share more than a grassy acre bordered by May Brook, social distancing is not a problem! Our published rate includes the entire property of all 3 cottages and grounds per night based on a weekly stay. The cottages are rented together through peak season, so that the grounds can be enjoyed by one group.
If you are interested in renting 1 cabin during non-peak season, or in between peak season bookings, please message us for availability.
More About The Cabins and the Area:
Each cottage is equipped with a kitchen, making it easy to prepare meals, make a few drinks, and feed those hungry kids. Or, take the short drive (or walk) into town where 2 local restaurants offer a number of delicious options. Barton sports a school playground, a grocery store, a library, and a number of hiking opportunities. Or just relax at May Brook - the property features this beautiful waterway, and the picturesque waterfall that feeds it.
Cottage 1: This studio cottage features a full kitchen, bathroom with a shower, and a roll out (cabinet) queen bed that sleeps 2, the perfect retreat for a couple or a single person. Enjoy looking at the early morning sun as you enjoy a cup of coffee or tea on the screened in front porch.

Cottages 2 and 3: These family cottages include three rooms and a bathroom. The large, fully equipped kitchens are perfect for longer stays. While a living room/kids room offers sleeping space and the ability to spread out a bit on those rainy days, or when escaping from the mid-day sun. A separate bedroom with a full sized bed lets parents have a little privacy. Both cottages have bathrooms with showers, and a cozy, screened in front porch overlooking the yard. The bedrooms overlook May Brook.

Why they chose this property
We loved the idea of spending the summer near the lake, with some privacy. This is over an acre just below the falls and on the brook. No social distancing needed - 3 separate cabins with separate bathrooms and kitchens - perfect for family gatherings, vacationing with friends or kids, while still having your own space. The beach is just across the lane, and you are close to town for amenities. With over an acre of land, an on site waterfall and brook, and screened in porches this property offers the best vacationing in Vermont.
