This cabin was made for people who wander and pay attention. For the ones who move through the world with curiosity, whether on two wheels, in muddy boots, or with a sketchbook in hand. It was built for trail riders and daydreamers, tired legs and open minds. For those who hike for the view and linger for the stillness. Who chase light, collect stories, and know the quiet magic of a good cup of coffee, a clean bed, and the sound of a brook at night. If that sounds like you, welcome. Foote Brook Cabin is a soft place to land. Tucked in the woods, 3 miles outside the village of Johnson, this off-grid hideaway invites you to unplug without roughing it. There is no WiFi, no plumbing, and no buzzing appliances. Instead, you get a full-sized memory foam bed with fresh linens, solar and battery lights, a Jackery power bank to charge your phone, firewood, and a little kitchen setup with everything you need to cook a meal. There’s clean drinking water, real dishes, a Coleman stove, and a composting outhouse that is tidy, private, and surprisingly pleasant. You can walk in, pedal in, or drive in. If you are biking the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail, I can meet you in town and bring you and your gear up to the cabin. Pets are welcome as long as they are well behaved and come with a human who will clean up after them. Johnson is just a short stroll from the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail trailhead and has everything you didn’t know you needed. A coffee shop and a tea house for whatever kind of caffeine emergency you are having. A grocery store that carries a little bit of everything. Chinese takeout. A laundromat. A sit-down spot for a warm meal. Johnson Woolen Mills and Vermont Flannel for souvenirs that feel like hugs. Butternut Mountain Farm Store for some tasty VT treats. There are also 2 covered bridges, local art, maple syrup, friendly neighbors, half dozen swimming holes, and a surprising number of Little Free Libraries for a town this size. This is not just a place to sleep. It is a chance to reset, breathe deep, and remember why you came to Vermont in the first place.

It was a perfect stay and we 100% recommend!

I had a great stay at Ryegate. The cabin was warm and homey, a nice break from camping when the rain and cold arrived. Jessica was welcoming, communicative and responsive. She provided good information about the stay and was kind enough to let me use the shower in the farmhouse, which was much appreciated. The cabin really has all you need... shelter, a cozy bed, a microwave, fridge, and coffee station. Sitting on the front porch with coffee overlooking the river and the mountain tree line is a wonderful way to spend a peaceful morning! The cabin is decorated very cute, which is a nice bonus. Note: You need to be up for a bit of outdoor life ... like using an outhouse and washing dishes in a sink outside. It isn't primitive but it is glamping.

We had a great stay at the Zen Cabin. The cute little cabin was just as advertised. Mitchell welcomed us and made sure we were all set. The temperature was forecasted to dip in to the 30s and he made sure the heater was working so we would be comfortable. It was a nice sleep after a fun wedding down the road. My wife and I enjoyed a crisp morning overlooking the field while we drank our coffee and looked at the cows who came to say hi. We only had a short stay, but it was clear that Mitchell and the Zen Cabin are a great little find in Northern Vermont.
