About this property

Cabot Cabin on a Quiet County Road

Our cozy 1830's cabin is on an old farm and just down the road from a breathtaking view over the Northeast Kingdom. In winter, cabin stays at 65 degrees. Very quiet, with virtually no traffic but the mailman once a day. The house is undeniably rustic, but charming and furnished with well-loved antiques. Open floor plan -bathroom only room with a door. Kids 7yrs+ welcome. Not near any downhill ski areas, and the rental is for the cabin and lawns, not whole property, and on unmaintained farm land, so are some old sheds and barn on land that are not accessible or safe for guests, though there is a front and side lawn that are kept mowed in the summer with seating, etc. November 1st through May 1st, guests will need snow tires or AWD / 4WD. Additionally, during "mud season," March 15 through April 25, you MUST have 4WD or AWD and a higher clearance car/truck. Some reviews of our property on Airbnb: "What a fantastic, cool, unique space to stay in. This older cabin has some really interesting antique décor and books, and I loved the unique lighting; it truly added to the rustic feel of the home. The owners really thought of everything when designing the space and stocking the space for guests, and we really appreciated the little extras. This is the perfect space for one couple and possibly one to two older children, and easy enough to find ... And what a beautiful view to wake up to! Cabot is a great little town with a small market and Harry's Hardware (hardware/bar/live music venue). We would be very happy to stay again here if we are in the area!" - Monica. And another from Lindsay: "Jennifer's house was perfect for a weekend getaway. Every nook was beautiful and perfectly decorated and the entire house felt cozy and comfortable. ... It was so relaxing to hike all day and come home and cook dinner together and cuddle up on the couch with a nice book and not even think of missed calls or meetings. The house is close to Groton State Forest, Kettle Pond State Park, and Peacham Pond ...Our stay was perfect and we loved the beautiful scenery - we can't wait to come back!" and finally one from Lucas: "The cabin was beautiful. The open floor plan worked well for us. Perfect for a couple or small family. Jennifer was an exceptional host and was very responsive when we had questions. We loved exploring the area and thought it was a great introduction to Vermont. Would definitely come back."

Charming Country Cabin

I really enjoyed my stay. The cabin was very clean, and much more spacious than what I expected. This is the perfect cabin for a single person, a couple, or 2 people who know each other well as the sleeping areas do not close off from the rest of the cabin. I'll stay here again the next time I'm in the area.

Charming stay in a beautiful place

We were in town for a family event and found the cabin to be a lovely and interesting spot for our stay. It was a rainy weekend, but it cleared enough for a couple of beautiful walks down the country road. The host provided some a bit of food in the fridge, including some famous Cabot cheese!! Hope to visit again in the fall!

Cozy cabin with beautiful fall views

Our stay at this charming cabin was truly unforgettable! The location was perfect surrounded by picturesque farms, grazing cows, and nearly no light pollution, giving us a breathtaking view of the stars each night. We took the host's recommendation for a sunset walk nearby, which offered incredible views of the surrounding area, and it was a highlight of our trip. The cabin itself was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described on the listing. The host was incredibly attentive, answering all of our questions within minutes and providing helpful suggestions throughout our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway!

Perfect for us!

We LOVED this cabin! Quaint, quiet, and a bit quirky, it is a genuine antique cabin in a pretty spot on a dirt and gravel road, off the beaten path. We loved the vintage/antique touches, the beamed ceiling and the wide pine floorboards, worn down by age. It was more spacious than we expected, and was thoughtfully well supplied with everything we could possibly need. Jennifer, the host, was very responsive and all the information she supplied was accurate. We hope to be able to stay there again next summer!

Fine for a couple only, maybe a small child, but it is small! Check your weather report—we knew there was no air conditioning, but unfortunately the week we were there was 90 and humid.

Very secluded property. Very much as described. Great communication from host. One helpul hint, bring a stand-alone GPS, or maps of the area. Unsure of other cell carriers, but Verizon had ZERO signal. Wifi calling setting was essential.

Visiting family in the area

Our visit was a combination of visiting with our son and partner when they were available and venturing out on our own when they were working. Arriving in the dark, the goggle map and Jennifer’s directions were perfect. The front porch light assured us we were in the right spot. Everything was as described in the listing; however, worries about being chilly never materialized and the bed was very comfy and warm. One big plus is the well stocked refrigerator with a full sized freezer. We tend to bring pre made meals frozen to meals to reheat and fill our cooler with frozen meat from the farmers markets for our 22 hour drive home. The cottage was a perfect base for day trips. We didn’t explore the immediate area, but the massive old trees (maples?) lining the road in both directions were magnificent. Favorites included the Village Restaurant in Hardwick for breakfast and Harry’s Hardware in Cabot for hanging out after the Montpelier farmers market-beer and great nibbles inside an old fashioned hardware store.

Very remote

The cabin itself was fantastic this was a charismas present for my fiancé. The property to the right had junk in yard old tires fallen down shed etc. etc.. To left of cabin was eye sore along with a lawn mower coved by very tall grass so was kind of embarrassed and disappointed from property keep up. If owners can just clean up yard some i feel it would be much better.

Good vacation

We enjoyed ourselves very much, which was made possibly thanks partly to the great accommodations. Very comfortable. Well-equipped, though the bed was a bit too short for one of us (who is 6'2"). Appreciated the decor. Host was prompt and friendly to communicate with. Would recommend.

A charming cabin for our getaway

We had a wonderful and peaceful extended weekend at this lovely cabin, which was surprisingly roomy, very comfortable, and filled with antique furniture and books. The village of Cabot was just "down the hill" - about 2.5 miles away - and the local market, hardware store, and cafe were a useful and nearby resource. The cabin is on a dirt road, and provided plenty of opportunities for long walks with practically no traffic. We highly recommend this cabin, and will definitely consider it again for a longer stay.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Taylor

Host profile image
My family has owned this house since 2001. We love the house and the land and are so happy that others are able to enjoy it as well. It is a magical place! We are super hosts on Airbnb and have a five star rating so if you would like to hear more about what others have said about our property, you can read our excellent reviews there.

Why they chose this property

This cabin was built sometime around 1830. It has such a sense of history about it and we have even met a woman who lived there back in the 1930;s before it had electricity or running water!

What makes this property unique

The land and house are very private with very few cars passing all day and you can see more stars than you can imagine! There are two small family dairy farms at each end of our road and the views from those farms are famous, even for Vermont- almost every year, we find one of these views in a Vermont scenic calendar. We are near a lot of hiking, lakes and ponds, and various festivals, from beer to music, happen all summer, and cross-country skiing and snow-shoeing in the winter.
