NOW BOOKING FOR 2026!! Nestled along the banks of Lewis Creek on a small-batch gourd farm in Vermont's Champlain Valley, the Gourdchard House (a portmanteau of "gourd orchard") is a 176 sq ft artist's retreat unlike anything else you'll find. Step outside and you're steps from the creek. Cast a line, dip your feet, or simply listen to the water from your camp chair. This is the kind of place where you actually unplug. Lewis Creek is a well-known fly fishing destination in the Champlain Valley. Steelhead run the creek in early spring from the falls in North Ferrisburgh down to Lake Champlain, and the creek also holds brown trout, smallmouth bass, and brook trout through the season. You're right on the water, no driving to a trailhead required. Your hosts are mixed-media artists who live and work on the property year-round. The homestead has its own quiet creative energy such as gardens, a gourd orchard, forest trails, and a homemade disc golf course to explore at your own pace. Evenings belong to the fire pit. Good to know before you book: - The loft stairs are steep! Please factor this in if mobility is a concern. - Guests must be comfortable maintaining a composting toilet (it's easier than it sounds, full instructions provided). - Height note: guests over 6'0" / 182 cm may find some areas snug. - Only biodegradable soaps permitted (provided). - This is a three-season rental (spring through fall). Wildlife sightings on the property include bobcats, porcupines, and a remarkable variety of birds. We share at the end of a small, rural road....come ready to slow down.This self-sufficient, previously mobile tiny home is located on a small-batch gourd farm with the artists/owners who are in residence year-round. The kitchen is equipped with a fridge, two-burner electric stove, convection oven/air fryer, and furnished coffee/tea station. The bathroom has a full-sized shower stall and guests must be comfortable maintaining a composting toilet during their stay. A small couch, storage nook, and Murphy dining table make the living space cozy. A full-sized bed with Purple mattress is located in the lofted bedroom accessible via permanent stairs, which are rather steep. Inside, the sink and shower water recycle into the landscape making this a truly sustainable home! Guests are welcome to explore the property’s gardens and forests, homemade disc golf course, fish along Lewis Creek, and share s'mores over an evening fire. We value our connection with nature so use your stay to unplug and listen to the sounds of Vermont’s birds which are active on our property. We often see wildlife like bobcats or porcupines on our property.
