Wonderful place to stay

Two week stay here was blissful. It was quiet, semi-remote with great wildlife views.Accommodation was spacious, comfortable and cosy when we had a few cool, wet days.

We have had limited experience with VRBO but this rental exceeded our exceptions. It is a lovely cottage with many wonderful features. The house was lovely and the kitchen outstanding with everything a traveller and a cook could ask for - coffee maker, utensils, condiments, etc. We appreciated that this was a pet friendly property and our golden retriever loved exploring the property and fields around after a 7 hour car drive. It was a very restful and peaceful place. We highly recommend it and will definitely use it again.

Excellent, as always

Perfect location to explore Southern/Central Vermont. Quiet, private, and beautiful. Our dogs love it here, as well. Donna is quick to respond to questions, and has a wealth of information on the area. We have stayed here numerous times and are looking forward to our next visit

Beautiful cottage and lovely surroundings.

Relaxing getaway in a cozy cottage—even in March there were beautiful views, rolling mist over the meadow, and the song of the rain drops on the metal roof. Feels away and remote but a quick jaunt to food and places of interest. Perfect!

I don’t know where to begin with how wonderful Donna’s cottage was. My husband and I came from California for some peace, quiet, and nature. We were overjoyed to find that the listing doesn’t even do this place justice. In CA I’m used to every listing hiding how close the properties are to each other with well shot angles where the neighbors are just out of frame.This place was so nestled in its own beautiful area where you could truly feel alone and at peace. The neighbors are separated by trees and felt so far away. I was so taken by this lovely clean and cozy place I think I took 400 photos of the property alone (not an exaggeration). Cooking breakfast in the kitchen with everything we needed, to the sound of bluejays and chickadees chirping in the trees. Enjoying the cozy gas fireplace on those wonderfully chilly nights curled up with good October books. Watching the sun rise and set through the many windows. This cottage felt new, was so clean, and so homey. Every direction we drove out we were surrounded by the turning fall foliage along charming roads, everything about this area was perfect. I hope we get to come out and stay here again, it was nothing short of magical. Donna was a wonderful and gracious host with perfect communication and I thank her so much for taking such great care of us.
Standing towards the back of the property, every angle is so beautiful
Did a little October decorating to feel even more at home
The sunrises were so incredible and the colors all around so vibrant
We felt peace and quiet unlike anywhere we’ve ever stayed

Great Place Cozy and Warm

My family and I absolutely love this place! We were fortunate enough to be there during a snow day, which really was a nice touch to the warm, cozy atmosphere inside. The beds were comfortable, loved the gas stove heat, everything lent to the picture of tranquility. Would definitely return.

Perfect Cozy Cabin

We loved the location, and the cabin is beautiful and comfortable. The kitchen and kitchen supplies made home-away-from-home cooking easy. Everything was impeccably clean, comfortable, better than pictured, and as many have said there are tons of games to play, books to read, and birds and critters to watch. The location is idyllic and quiet. We really enjoyed a short drive into charming downtown Bellows Falls for great coffee and company.

This is the third time we have stayed here and we are never disappointed. The cottage is immaculate and although there is no tv or internet- a plus for us- the cell phone service is great. The cottage is so rustic with beautiful wood and comfortable furniture and the kitchen has updated appliances with a gas stove and lots of counter space and cabinet space. The two full bathrooms are so convenient and the water pressure is great along with the hot water. The meadow view in the front is so beautiful from the large window and porch especially in the morning when there is almost always a ground fog making it look magical. There is a beautiful woods in the back and a nice yard to walk and play in. The house is close to Bellows Falls, a sweet little town with surprisingly a lot to do there. The Moon Dog Cafe is well with the trip for lunch or breakfast as well as the Flat Iron Cooperative, an awesome coffee shop and bakery. Donna the owner is great. She responds quickly and is so helpful with anything you need. On the back page of the instruction sheet at the cottage she has a list of other fun things to do from hikes to other nature activities and other towns to visit within a half hour of the cottage. We plan on going back next summer!

Relaxing rainy weekend

Originally wanted to use this as a base for hiking but we ended up being rained out. We spent the weekend reading, playing board games, and cozying up by the fire instead. The space was so quiet and comfortable I wasn't even mad about not being able to go hiking. The house is perfect for some R&R.

A little slice of heaven

This is such a lovely place for a getaway. It is secluded, off a dirt road and all you can hear is birds in the meadow. Definitely don't come here if you're media addicted. No TV, no wifi, and a just-barely passable cellular connection. But if you would like to sink yourself into long conversations on a comfortable porch as you watch the barn swallows cavort in the meadow, then this is the place for you.

Absolutely perfect

Delighted to return to the third time to experience this unique Vermont getaway! The comfortable and well-stocked home is completely secluded and surrounded by peaceful, quiet nature, yet just minutes from the charming locale of Bellows Falls and the Vermont Country Store. With easy intestate access, the cottage makes an excellent home base for exploring all the Green Mountain State has to offer. Donna, the host, is exceptionally friendly and communicates well. She truly cares about guest comfort and offered some specific suggestions for attractions. Guests can expect an entire field of fireflies on summer evenings, cheerful and colorful birds all day long, and a paradise for dogs to explore. Fix a healthy meal in the kitchen or enjoy some healing front porch sitting. Families and friends can make great memories here -- it's the perfect reset. Cannot recommend this experience strongly enough! You won't be disappointed in any way.

Although we were only there for one night and didn't need any kitchen amenities, it was fully stocked with not only pots/pans, dishes, etc, but also spices and other treats. The house was clean and large enough for the 5 of us. It was charming and had a lot of character. The big dining room table afforded us the opportunity to play cards without being crowded. I can't even begin to describe how adorable this place is. We loved sitting on the porch and having our tea in the crisp morning air. We listened to and watched the birds in the big tree on the side. I wish we had more time to explore around the property. If we are ever in the area again, we will definitely stay here.
