This quiet, private cabin in the woods is the perfect space for a personal retreat. It’s removed from the busy-ness of downtown areas, but close enough to get where you need to go. This space is ideal for a weekend of “me time”—walks on a winding country road, reading by the fire, writing, meditation, and simply recharging.
Originally built in 1975, most of the cottage was recently updated. The result is a rustic space with touches of luxurious comfort.
Nestled into the woods on a winding country road, the cottage sits on a few acres. Whether laying in bed or sitting on the 3-season porch, guests will find themselves surrounded by trees. You may even spot a black bear, owl, or other beautiful wildlife. There are neighbors on both sides, but they are just far away enough to not be obtrusive. For those nervous about being alone in the woods, the closest neighbor is a state trooper who keeps an eye on the place.
The kitchen has an antique gas stove, although only the stove top works. We provide guests with an induction burner, toaster oven, and microwave. There’s a coffee pot & electric kettle, and we provide an assortment of tea. We also have a few cooking basics like oil, salt & pepper. The kitchen also has a blender & bread machine, cookware, utensils, and a charming set of vintage dinner ware & cups. Guests should plan to bring their own coffee & food, and we are happy to provide a list of local farms & shops.
The bedroom is large and very cozy, with floor-to-ceiling darkening curtains that give the sensation of being cocooned in the space. There is a comfortable seating area with a chaise lounge & chair, plus a bookshelf with a take-one-leave-one library. The queen bed has a 12-inch memory foam mattress. Guests can expect cotton sheets, quality pillows, and a seasonally-appropriate comforter.
The living room holds a daybed with newer mattresses, soft bedding, and lots of pillows. Single guests and couples can use this space as a sofa, but it also serves as a second bed for those who need it.
The bathroom has a tub and shower, boasting strong water pressure and a tankless hot water system. Hand soap, body wash, shampoo & conditioner, and clean towels are all provided.
The 3-season porch serves as evidence of the cottage’s original 1970s roots, with rustic wood walls & floors. We just installed screened windows, allowing for fresh air without the bugs. There are a few lights and an extension cord for device charging, as well as fans to circulate the air on hot days. Although the lack of insulation means that it can get quite hot midday, it’s a sublime space for morning coffee and evening relaxation. There is a table and chairs for al fresco dining, a single bed for an afternoon read/nap, and a cozy chair for relaxing in the (nearly) outdoors. It’s a great way to enjoy a sheltered view of the wild backyard—and possibly some wild life!
From the original artwork to the bohemian vibe, this is truly a one-of-a-kind space!

The cabin is the perfect getaway in the woods with a wood-burning stove, close enough to the town of Williamsburg (a real New England gem) but quiet and peaceful. Maya was a wonderful host, very responsive but respectful of my privacy. There is hiking nearby (I saw a red fox), a grocery store and cafe/chocolate shop. I loved my stay there and look forward to going back.
The cabin is spacious and Maya is a great host! It is rustic though, which means that though the pictures look really nice, it is less comfortable than we hoped. What looked like a couch in the living room is really a bed and so not easy to sit on--great for lounging w a book, but not enjoying a glass of wine and a snack. If we were out all day and just coming back to crash--perfect! Gorgeous location and easy to reach even though remote.
