44mi from Maidstone Campground · 1 siteOur charming cabin with world-class views is ideal for a quiet retreat or a home base for adventures. With stunning views of the White Mountains, the cabin is set on a hilltop surrounded by woods, a small family orchard, and a vegetable garden. Located on 75 acres bordered by hundreds of acres of woods and conserved land, you'll find beauty and calm all around you.
The cabin: Open space with a fold-down futon couch bed, chairs, breakfast nook with kitchenette, desk, small fireplace. Sleeping loft above the main area provides additional privacy. Linens and blankets for both beds are provided. If you like, you can pitch a tent.
The kitchenette: Mini-fridge, toaster oven, electric kettle, coffee maker, cookware, flatware, dinnerware, and starter supply of common household items.
There is an outdoor propane grill with grilling utensils, and an outdoor fire pit.
There is no indoor plumbing; instead there is an outdoor sink and enclosed shower, with running hot and cold water. There is a portolet onsite.
The cabin is powered by the sun and is off-grid. If needed during cloudy weather there is a generator for backup, as well as family games and DVDs for rainy days. There is cell service for most carriers, and most people can get online through their data plans. There is no WiFi.
If you're bringing your dog, please make sure they're added to the reservation. We prefer dogs stay off the furniture, but please bring your own protective cover just in case. If they are to be left unattended please bring a crate for them while you're out.
There is no trash pickup; the local transfer station is only open on Saturdays. There are bins at the cabin for trash, recycling, and compost, but to reduce wildlife temptation we appreciate when guests "carry in, carry out."
Although very private the cabin is conveniently located between two I91 exits, and is close to Groton State Forest and the Cross Vermont Trail.
We live and work onsite. We are also the home of The Growing Peace Project (thegrowingpeaceproject.org), and the garden behind the cabin is part of our food security programs. While we make every effort to respect guest privacy, during your stay you may see one or two of us quietly tending the garden or orchard. If you need us for any reason our home is onsite.
