Very cute, cozy, rustic cabin just as expected. Stayed here as a family of four while skiing Sugarbush. it was perfect for us. The location and setting were both ideal.
We had a wonderful time at our place, which was perfectly situated between Mad River and Sugarbush. Outback, directly behind the house, was a beautiful running creek with chairs and a fire pit. Across the street is the blue cross country Trail. Our host was very responsive to the different issues that arose and took care of them very promptly. We appreciate Robin our host for her communication and quick responses. I highly recommend it for skiing and enjoying both mad River and Sugarbush in the towns of Wakefield and Warren!

About the host
Hosted by Robin Robinson
Hi! We're Robin and John, and we're excited to share our little corner of Vermont with you.
We've spent years enjoying everything the Mad River Valley has to offer—from skiing at Sugarbush and Mad River Glen to hiking, mountain biking, swimming, and exploring the area's incredible natural beauty. We purchased this cabin because we fell in love with its location, its character, and the peaceful setting along Mill Brook.
As hosts, our goal is simple: provide a clean, comfortable, and affordable place where guests can relax, recharge, and enjoy the outdoors. While the cabin is rustic and full of charm, it's also a great basecamp for adventure, whether you're here to ski, hike, bike, explore the mountains, or simply unwind by the river.
We're always happy to share recommendations for our favorite hiking trails, swimming holes, restaurants, breweries, scenic drives, and local hidden gems. We hope you'll enjoy the Mad River Valley as much as we do and create some wonderful memories during your stay.
Why they chose this property
We chose this location because it puts some of the best outdoor recreation in Vermont right at your doorstep. Within minutes, you can be skiing at Sugarbush or Mad River Glen, hiking on the Long Trail, mountain biking local trails, or exploring the many swimming holes throughout the Mad River Valley.
What we love most is the combination of convenience and nature. Downtown Waitsfield is just a few minutes away, offering great restaurants, local shops, farmers markets, and breweries, yet the cabin itself sits along Mill Brook, where you can relax by the water and enjoy the peaceful mountain setting.
The Mad River Valley has a unique character that feels authentic Vermont—independent ski areas, covered bridges, winding country roads, mountain views, and a strong sense of community. Whether you're visiting for skiing, fall foliage, summer adventures, or simply a quiet getaway, there's always something to explore nearby.
For us, it's the perfect balance of adventure, relaxation, and classic Vermont charm.
What makes this property unique
What makes our cabin unique is its combination of location, affordability, and access to the very best of the Mad River Valley. You're less than 8 minutes from both Sugarbush and Mad River Glen, just a few minutes from downtown Waitsfield, and directly across from the Catamount Trail, yet you can still enjoy a peaceful riverside setting along Mill Brook.
One of our favorite features is the private path leading down to the brook. Follow the solar-lit walkway to the riverfront fire pit, where you can relax by the water, listen to the sounds of the stream, and enjoy a campfire after a day of adventure.
The cabin is also ideally located near many of the area's most popular attractions. Enjoy wood-fired pizza at American Flatbread, tacos and margaritas at Mad Taco, or a craft beer at Lawson's Finest Liquids—all just minutes away. Mountain bikers will love the extensive trail networks throughout the valley, including the trails around Blueberry Lake, one of Vermont's premier riding destinations.
The cabin itself is cozy, rustic, and full of Vermont character. It's not a luxury property, but it is clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped with everything you need for a mountain getaway. Whether you're here to ski, hike, bike, paddle, swim, explore the Long Trail, or simply unwind in nature, the cabin serves as a perfect basecamp for experiencing the Mad River Valley.
Many properties offer mountain access. Few offer mountain access, river access, a private brookside fire pit, world-class mountain biking, and close proximity to some of the valley's best restaurants, breweries, and outdoor adventures—all at an affordable price.
