Beautiful Rustic Cabin with Caveat
Firstly, the good and great:
The property and area itself is beautiful. A great spot as a base for exploring this part of VT, and nearby to some really cool hikes and restaurants/country stores. The property is fairly well maintained but has amazing views and is great for morning walks. The view from the hot tub was beautiful especially on the clear and cool nights we had. The hot tub itself was a very short walk from our cabin to the “main house”. Well maintained and clean. The cabin was really cool, rustic, and had plenty of room.
The not so great:
Communication with the host was an issue, though service in the area could be the cause. It took about 30 minutes past check-in time to receive the code to enter. Unanswered questions about the WiFi hotspot that was dead when homework needed to be submitted was a bummer. The cabin was rustic and that’s no worries, but the furniture and bedding were visibly soiled. The loft bed was super cool, but luckily we had blankets, pillows, and sleeping bags with us because all the linens were covered in flecks and several dead flies. I understand it’s rustic, but if they were just prepped prior to our arrival, it should t have been an issue. The amount of “house rules” written over multiple whiteboards AND the door was not very welcoming, superfluous, and overly complicated and unneeded considering we were paying for a place to stay a couple nights and not taking jobs there as caretakers.
