Cute tiny home

We loved our first stay in a tiny home. It had everything we needed to cook and relax on a getaway weekend. It is situated very close to Quechee, Woodstock, and the neighboring ski resorts. The grounds were beautiful, we loved watching the snow fall in the evergreen trees from the cozy couch. We were thrilled to be able to bring our dogs as well.The hosts were only a text away for anything needed, we would highly recommend a stay here!

VT Wedding

We were in the area for a wedding and decided to try our first tiny house experience. It was awesome. The living space is perfect and has everything you need, and the location is great and accessible to good snowshoeing, skiing, and shopping. Highly recommend!

cozy in the trees

A clean and appealing tiny house ideal for a single or two-person stay. We loved the views of peaceful tree-lined hillsides and the abundant natural light. Two sleeping areas include a better-quality sofa bed (unfold onto floor) and a comfortable queen bed with nice linens under the curved ceiling of the loft that feels a bit like sleeping in the cabin of a boat. Smart storage and most amenities typical of a tiny house. Excellent communication and very welcoming vibes from host Arturo. To stay here you should be comfortable with a steep gravel drive and nimble enough for narrow spaces and deep stairs inside. A special little spot convenient to Woodstock, Hartland, and White River.

Cozy tiny house stay

We throughly enjoyed our stay at the tiny house! It is a great location just a 15 minute drive from downtown Woodstock. The added features of the hot tub, fire pit, and deck with string lights make this place stand out. The owners provided a nice welcome gift and a great guide to the area. Highly recommend staying here!

Tiny Home living for 2

Arturo and John were excellent hosts. The little welcome gift bag was very thoughtful. The tiny home was a perfect size for the 2 of us and our cat. It was the perfect midway location from our home in MA and our excursions to Burlington & Stowe.

From coffee on the tree top deck to a relaxing soak in the hot tub after a day of hiking, you will be hard pressed to find a better stay than Swanns Way! We look forward to returning this fall!

About the host

Hosted by Arturo Ramos and John Lurz

Host profile image
We love the outdoors, especially hiking, skiing and swimming. Vermont has been an enchanting destination for us since we moved to New England. We hope you enjoy our home and the Upper Valley as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We wanted a home that allowed us to nestle right into the Vermont forest and which had as little an environmental footprint as possible while preserving style and comfort. Because the house was built on a gooseneck trailer bed, we named it *Swann's Way,* after one of our favorite novels.

What makes this property unique

Solar powered, car charger available, short distance to Quechee Village, ski resorts and to major highways.
