Charming remote cabin

The cabin was cute and clean, and the location was very private and peaceful. We had a very quiet, relaxing weekend stay.

A Perfect Place to Get Away and Destress

A beautiful little place in a lovely setting! We felt away from the world, but anything we wanted was a short drive a way and the cabin had all the conveniences.

Perfect

Great property that has met a variety of my needs. I've stayed several times; once alone, once with spouse and dog, once entertaining adult children. Communication with the host was great!

All around excellent!

We could not be happier with the cabin, location and hosts. 5 star all around. We would highly recommend staying here! The cabin is amazing and decorated perfectly for that “old rustic” feel. We stayed during winter, so the fireplace and hot tub added to the experience. Close to skiing, but tucked away for ultimate relaxation.

Wonderful getaway!

We truly enjoyed our time at the Owls Nest. The cabin is well appointed and thoughtfully decorated. Will and Sarah were great to work with and beyond accommodating. The fireplace, impressive vinyl collection, puzzles and hot tub made for wonderfully quiet and relaxing weekend. We are already thinking about the next trip. Thank you so much!

Fantastic Spot

We had such a great stay at the Owl's Nest- the cabin is amazing; so bright, cheery, comfy, and cozy. The cabin has so many great touches; from the cool artwork, and the record collection, to the loft and the outdoor shower! We also love this area and had a great time hiking, swimming, and exploring.

We kept walking around the cabin saying "it's just so cute!" or "how is this place real?" When the reviews say the pictures don't do it justice, believe them. Top notch owners and property. Thanks so much!

Darling Cottage in the Woods

Pictures do not do this listing justice! This may be our favorite VRBO rental – ever! The cottage is clean, cozy and beautifully decorated. The location is so peaceful and quiet and yet less than 15 minutes from Bromley ski area. Owners were great to work with, and we will definitely be back again next year. Thank you for sharing your lovely cottage with us!

Perfect secluded cabin

Owl’s Nest was a perfect cabin in the Vermont woods for my husband and I to get away from the city and work. I have spent lots of time in the bigger New England cities and towns, but getting into the woods, without service or street lights was the perfect escape. Huge plus for being dog friendly! We spent lots of time reading, listening to records, enjoying the hot tub, and making a fire in the fireplace. When going out to explore, make sure your car is good on dirt roads - there are lots of them. Highly recommend checking out the shops in Weston or going up to the Clarendon Gorge to find the Suspension Bridge for a hike.

The property owners were so easy to work with, super communicative and quickly responded to any questions I had. The cabin was spacious, yet charming. The hot tub was amazing sitting under the night sky. The view outside of the many windows of the snow covered woods was wonderful. The beds were comfortable and the heated bathroom and awesome hot open shower was wonderful after a day of skiing. The kitchen was well equipped and had everything I needed for my gourmet meals except aluminum foil and plastic wrap due to eco friendly practices- so if you are in need- bring your own. I was able to improvise with what they had in stock ;). I had a wonderful romantic getaway and thoroughly enjoyed my stay!

magnificent

Soul-reviving. My husband, our 5 year old and our dog had a most amazing time here. We all enjoyed daily walks down to the river, especially our dog who enjoyed taking a hike in the woods. I savored some alone-time in the cottage, enjoying the sun soaked livingroom with dutch door open, and reading in the warm late afternoon sun. Nearby Hapgood's General Store and eatery was a welcome treat; for breakfast, a wine and pizza dinner, lovely shop and beautiful lawn for the kids to play. The proximity to Manchester and Weston were a fabulous plus for us. Will and his family were super welcoming, friendly and helpful. We wish we were already back!

Cozy Cabin

We greatly enjoyed our weekend at The Owl's Nest. The cabin is quaint as advertised, and it is top notch throughout. Great living space, kitchen, shower, hot tub. Comfortable beds. Well equipped. It even has a popcorn machine (which in the end we didn't use but I wanted to). The cabin is a wonderful space to hang out and we ended up spending a lot of our weekend doing just that. We also walked a bit around the property and did the Lye Brook Falls Trail (moderate uphill hike to a tall waterfall; 2:45 round trip for us). The owners were responsive to the few questions we had. Highly recommended.

Cozy owls nest

We had a wonderful stay at the owls nest! Pictures don't do it justice how cute and comfortable this cabin is! It sits back down a dirt road in the peace and quiet surrounded by mountains and trees. Awesome outdoor fire pit and hot tub. The cabin when you walk in is so welcoming and cozy. Shower was super cool and beds were above and beyond comfortable! We stayed with my husband and I, our 7 year old, 18 month old and pup. We felt very comfortable hanging out at night playing games with way more than enough space for us. The host was awesome in reaching out and telling me about the towns fourth of July celebrations that we got to enjoy! We really hope to come back in the winter to check out skiing in the area and will absolutely stay at the owls nest again!

Amazing weekend at the Owl’s Nest

Our weekend at The Owl’s Nest was nothing short of magical. Tucked away in a peaceful, scenic location, the cabin offered the perfect mix of rustic charm and modern comfort. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the stunning views—the kind of stillness that immediately melts away stress. The cabin itself is beautifully maintained and thoughtfully decorated, with cozy touches that make it feel like home. The wood-burning fireplace was the perfect spot to unwind with both a cup of coffee and a glass of wine, and we took advantage of and thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub! If you’re looking for a serene escape in nature, The Owl’s Nest is truly a gem. It’s the kind of place you leave feeling recharged and already dreaming of your next visit. Will and Sarah were extremely accommodating and responsive when we asked for a later check out, they even offered to let us stay another night! (I really wish we could have). We WILL be back. Highly recommend!

Charming cozy cabin perfect for a ski trip

We absolutely loved our stay at the Owl's Nest! The location was great. It was under a 35 minute drive to Stratton, passing Bromley on the way. The owners do note but maybe don't emphasize enough the need for all wheel drive/4WD in the winter. The long hilly driveway did get plowed but not sand or salt. The cabin was warm & cozy with comfy beds and an amazing shower. We made fires, streamed movies (on tv in living room, no wifi issues) listened to records (& sonos), made popcorn, cooked dinners in the roomy kitchen and hiked the trail behind the house. Don't miss stopping at the charming JJ Hapgood General Store for coffee/pastries, sandwiches or gourmet food staples. Thank you Will & Sarah!

Adorable, cozy and unique vacation home in ideal location

Rarely are VRBOs as amazing as they seem in the description, but this one truly was! This cabin- nicknamed the Owl's Nest- was absolutely adorable, and truly cozy. Each room was thoughtfully decorated with so much unique, New England character. The beds were super comfy, our kids loved the little loft area over the fireplace, and everything was very clean. Only small downside was the spotty wi-fi (to be expected in a remote area) but there was so much in the house to keep us entertained between the old school record player with an IMPRESSIVE record collection, a stack of board games and puzzles, and a popcorn maker, even my phone-loving teenager had fun. The hosts also went out of their way to make us comfortable. We happened to stay during an unusually cold snap, and they made sure we had plenty of firewood for the fireplace, and checked in during our stay to make sure we were warm enough (we were!) The location is also ideal for skiers as it's <45 mins from Bromley, Stratton, Okemo and Mt. Snow.

Finally found the spot I've been looking for.

I've stayed at a few places that promised a peaceful area and quaint cabin, this one really delivered. The area is bucolic: dirt roads, beautifully maintained farmhouses, horses, cows. All the people I encountered could not have been nicer. I want to move here. Plenty of hiking spots, good places to eat, antiques, farms. As for the cabin itself: Location is perfect. Once you pull off the road, the only other property is the owners home. It added to the feeling of safety and welcomeness, yet was far enough away that we never saw them. The cabin itself is great. I'm always cold, and there wasn't a draft in the place! The pictures didn't do it justice. Everything seemed very well thought out, good eye for aesthetic. The shower was great, which is one of those luxuries I'm always looking for. Just looking at the stars and listening to the coyotes, I could do that all night. We went for a wedding anniversary, but this place would also be a blast for families, friends, heck I'd maybe even come here with just my dog! Hosts were super responsive to questions, even in the evening, and recommended some good spots to us. Very easy to recommend without any caveats.
