Cabin Stay Dream Come True

This cozy little cabin emerged straight from my dreams. It's the kind of place I read in books. 2 small bedrooms with full size beds. We raised the heat a couple of degrees and soon lowered it, it warms up very quickly. Enjoyed a beautiful early walk down the road with my doggy. Enjoyed a cup of coffee on the porch. Worked on my dissertation looking out the widow to the lake. All picturesque moments. mldown the

Quiet oasis

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at this lovely cabin. It is on a dirt road, and there were many walks from the cabin. The view from the porch as we ate was breathtaking, with all the leaves changing. Would stay again.

Wonderful stay

We had a wonderful week at the cabin... it was extremely clean, and well equipped. It's a fairly remote location (the last couple of miles is on an unpaved road) but not isolated; there are several houses in the area. We enjoyed viewing the lake and listening to the loons from the front porch. There's no A/C, but it wasn't needed for our week in mid July. The owners are great, and very accommodating. Hope to stay again soon!

Getaway for the third year

Another wonderful stay at the Scamper Inn. This is our third year staying here. The location is great to Okemo and restaurants while being off the beaten path which makes walking the dogs a treat. The cabin is cozy with everything that you need in a full kitchen. Sharon keeps adding new touches each year and is very thoughtful about every detail. Sharon is also very responsive and checks in at just the right times. A great find!

Cozy stay, wonderful owners

This cabin has a distinct feel of being somebody else's home in the best way. It's nothing fancy, but filled with personal and thoughtful touches that makes it feel welcoming and cozy, like visiting a relative's. Paul and Sharon went out of their way to make sure we had anything we might need, both with amenities and gracious advice. They were very responsive and so kind, and especially forgiving of our anxious pup (thank you and sorry, again, guys!). We sincerely enjoyed our stay!

Weekend escape

We had a lovely time at the cabin. It had everything we needed - stocked kitchen, fun games, great books, dog bed/bowls/bags. We took the short walk to the lake every day and had it completely to ourselves. The town nearby was cute and had some good shopping. Just remember to pack some butter/oil for any cooking. The closest grocery was not close and also was not open. Would definitely recommend this cabin for a peaceful getaway!

Cozy cabin

We had everything we needed at the cozy cabin. We were surprised with all the skinny dippers on the lake which did not prevent us from kayaking, swimming, and fishing. You could still see the devastation from the floods earlier in July but we were still able to enjoy many hiking trials. We had a nice stay and recommend the cozy cabin for a quiet get away

Quiet little slice of heaven

Our stay could not have been more peaceful, serene, and just overall lovely. Sharon’s cabin is quaint and well-kept and was perfect for our little family (husband, 6-month old, and dog). We enjoyed walking around the lake area, finding nearby hikes to go to, and sitting on the private beach. We did not utilize the kayaks but it’s awesome that she has them to use. We absolutely loved being able to snuggle up on the porch with coffee and a book every morning. This was just what the doctor ordered for us, and Sharon went above and beyond in hosting, responsiveness and kindness. Would 100% recommend staying here!

Cozy, quiet log cabin by the lake

The log cabin was so cozy! We felt like we were staying at our family’s little cabin getaway. The property was just as Sharon described it. It’s a very nice sized log cabin with a lake view. We sat and enjoyed coffee on the front porch looking at the lake every morning. The lake is a very short walk down a little rocky road. The little beach is tiny but cute. We thoroughly enjoyed the use of the kayaks. The lake is very quiet and calm. A nice size lake to kayak, not too big, not too small. We did not fish, but a nice family was kayaking and fishing and we were told that the fishing was very good. Maybe next time. Our dog Charlie even enjoyed the kayak. Sharon went out of her way to to accommodate our furry family member. To say they’re dog friendly is an understatement. They’re dog loving! The kitchen had everything we needed to make ourselves at home. And on a couple occasions when we did not want to cook for ourselves, Ludlow was the cutest little town nearby for some great drinks and meals. A very short drive from the cabin. Lots to do in the area, but if you’re looking to unwind and relax, the cabin is sufficient enough on its own. We would 100% stay there again.

Return stay in a cozy cabin!

This is our second year staying at the Scamper Inn! The cabin is very clean, well equipped, has a large 2 car carport and has plenty of room to relax. The internet is dependable and speedy. Sharon is very responsive and accommodating to ensure a pleasant stay. The cabin is a 10 minute drive to Okemo and downtown Ludlow. It is also a short drive to Killington and fun little towns. Being a dog friendly house is great! The cabin is set back off the road and right across the street is a lake and quiet trails to explore.
