Top 12 cabin getaways in Vermont

Vermont is easy to fall in love with. This is without a doubt one of the most beautiful states in the United States, with countless hiking routes, huge ski slopes, and breathtaking fall foliage. Vermont is a true outdoor lover’s paradise, with lovely cities and mountain communities offering breathtaking beauty all year.

1- Cozy Log Cabins located in the Green Mountains of Vermont

This vermont cabin is a wonderful place to get away from it all! Sleep in one of the hand-hewn log cabins on this 232-acre property. Enter a charming country kitchen, fully equipped with everything you need to prepare a romantic dinner or simply relax in the cozy living area by the wood-burning stove with your favorite book.

Early summer evenings are best spent rocking on the covered porch with a glass of cool lemonade in hand, watching the wind rustle through the leaves and watching deer graze nearby.

If you’re feeling more adventurous, take a walk down to the pond and ride on the paddle boat, perhaps catching a glimpse of the wild geese and Mallards that visit there, or hike one of our many, beautiful woodland trails. Picnics are a’must’ with the outdoor grills and picnic tables.

Rest, relax, and enjoy your vacation in one of Vermont’s most serene and beautiful settings. Birch Meadow vacation will be one of your most treasured memories!

2- Creekside Camp cabin

While relaxing at Creekside Camp, take in the sights and sounds of the flowing stream. Creekside Camp is a 1,300-square-foot historic home located on the banks of a rocky creek. The house, which was originally a hunting camp, dates from the late 1800s. The living room is a timber frame barn that has been reconstructed. Creekside Camp has kept its historic charm while also providing all modern amenities.

The house has a completely renovated gourmet kitchen and bathrooms in the bohemian style. The exposed posts and beams, as well as the wood burning stove, give this home a distinct Vermont feel. The house is close to the road, but it is a no-outlet road with only three houses beyond. Dorset’s fine dining is only 2.5 miles away. Less than nine miles away are designer outlets as well as locally owned shops and restaurants.

Mansfield and skiing, and a few miles from the Pinnacle, one of Vermont’s most spectacular hikes. So, Goldilocks may not be your first choice if you want a secluded cabin in the woods, but if you want a charming and unique, conveniently located cabin that is easily accessible in all weather conditions, Goldilocks is for you.
