About the host
Hosted by Wendy Wachtel
I arrived in Vermont in 2016 as a DIY creator, using my own spaces for home‑improvement projects and design work. Before long, my little rental side gig blossomed into something so much bigger. Finally I took the leap and built Sugar Maple Mountain Retreat: a trio of boutique cabins nestled deep in the woods, designed for comfort, creativity, and cozy Vermont living. Today, I’m proud to call Vermont home and truly love hosting guests year‑round at rentals in both Ludlow and Cavendish.
