About this property

The Pond Cabin at Sky Hollow, The Hunter Cabin at Sky Hollow

Get away in this quiet cabin in a large meadow at the end of the road. Trails, a swimming pond, fire pit and a sauna all surround the cabin. Enjoy a cup of coffee with stunning mountain views from the front porch. Fully equipped kitchen, minus the out of order oven (stovetop works). Enjoy the outdoor shower surrounded by flower gardens and a well equipped outhouse. Extra guests are welcome and can pitch a tent.
The cabin is rustic, private, and cozy. It is comfortably furnished and has a new memory foam double bed and high speed wifi. The cabin is surrounded by flower gardens, lawn, a vegetable garden, sauna and swimming pond which overlook meadows and pasture with horses. Stunning 30 mile views to Killington southwards off the front porch. This beautiful space, tucked in a hilltop hollow, is perfect for an in-nature or meditative retreat and is only 2 miles to the village of Rochester.
The water at the cabin is NOT potable, but water is provided for arrival and guests can refill their water container from a drilled artesian well (excellent water!). Please see check in instructions for more information.
Solar electricity powers lights and is ample for charging cell phones. There is no microwave or toaster. Gas stovetop (no oven), supplemental heat and mini fridge are provided. Other than a clothes line, there are no laundry facilities on site but the Town of Rochester has a small laundromat.
The cabin is kept clean and neat, mindful maintenance of the space, composting and recycling is expected. Trash and recycling is picked up by Jess or Gus when requested.
A dog is welcome with pre-approval. They should either be leashed or under voice command. A pet fee of $50 per pet for any length of stay is required.
The cabin is set up for 2 guests, but there is an option of pitching a tent if needed.

The Apartment, The Creek Cabin, and The Guest House can all be found on Airbnb!
Guests have access to the entire cabin, the vegetable garden, swimming pond, fire pit and sauna. All walking trails are available to guests, and are marked. Please avoid areas around other buildings on Sky Hollow to allow all guests their privacy. All barns and sheds are also private. No fees for use of the sauna are required, but donations are accepted to help cover the costs of firewood.
Your hosts live in the main peach farmhouse. We request our privacy and will respect yours, but want to be sure your stay with us is as comfortable as possible, so please don't hesitate to reach out to us! Generally, the area is very quiet, and everyone knows to be respectful of space, privacy and noise.
The Cabin is located beyond the end of the dirt road - (1 mile up from Route 100 North). There is minimal traffic other than owners or other guests who may come to swim, enjoy the sauna, or hike. The village of Rochester features great eateries for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, a bakery, a lovely public library, art gallery, antique store, a great playground at the elementary school, swimming holes, yoga studio, and more, and it is within driving distance of larger towns like Rutland and Killington, Middlebury, Waitsfield and Warren, and West Lebanon NH for day trips.
PYO organic berries at Sunshine Berry farm in town, tubing in the White River, biking and hiking close to home are all part of the community offerings.
Public transportation is a 20+ minute drive away - a vehicle is necessary. Parking is available at the cabin. 4wd and a vehicle with decent road clearance is recommended.
The owner has a golden retriever (Kodak) - he is friendly and (usually!) well-behaved, but does bark and run to greet you, so please drive slowly and don't be alarmed! We also have a cat, several free range chickens, and two friendly horses who graze in view of the cabin. Please be aware of electrified fencing (especially with small children!). Maple syrup and eggs offered for sale when available. Please consider that you may or may not have cell service during your stay - AT&T has good coverage, but Verizon is spotty...there is a nice rock on the mountain top where it works well! Check coverage maps for other carriers.
