Shaker Mountain Refuge sits on 300, mostly wooded acres at the foot of the Green Mountains. With outstanding views of Camel's Hump (Vermont's second tallest peak), the refuge is a wonderful place to sit back, relax and enjoy the natural world. There are numerous hiking trails on site, as well as a beautiful swimming pond. Access to Camels Hump hiking trails is a short drive away. Nearby, Camels Hump Nordic ski and bike center boasts incredible mountain biking and nordic ski trails. Just down the hill, the Huntington River has an abundance of swimming holes and fishing spots. Just over the Appalachian Gap are the Mad River Glen and Sugarbush ski resorts. There are many excellent restaurants within a 20 minute drive.

Romance under the mountains!
The coyote lean-to is such a romantic spot! it has a beautiful view of the on-property pond. We enjoyed sitting on the dock and looking at the mountains. The view of the mountains was amazing! Mendora was thoughtful in providing dry firewood, card games, and a cooking grate. I can't recommend this place enough. We will be coming back to stay at her tiny house on the property :)

Camping with a View.
My best friend, my sister and I had only one night to get away from the city and enjoy time together in nature. Medora's land was breathtaking. Medora was concerned about our sleeping situation considering she had a queen size bed to accommodate us however the 3 of us expected to squish. Needless to say the comfort this one mattress brought to us was astonishing. The 3 of us slept like babies throughout the night and didn't even want to get out of bed the next morning. It was so peaceful waking up to the sound of the birds and the most breathtaking view. Medora was very attentive and made sure we had everything we need. I will definitely be coming back in the near future. Thank you very much for your hospitality Medora.

Medora’s property is magical! The view of camels hump is magnificent at sunrise and the pond was lovely for a swim. The lean-to was equipped with everything we needed, including a fire all set up for us and a large jug of water. I hope to visit again soon!

Lovely cabin with beautiful view, and the pond is great for a morning or evening dip. Medora also had set out firewood and newspaper for us to make a fire, and there was plenty of kitchen supplies (plated, cups, utensils, pans, etc) to use. Could not have been any better!

Mountain View
We hiked Camel’s Hump during the day and enjoyed falling asleep and waking up to the view of the mountain. The bed was incredible comfortable and Medora is a lovely host!
