Beautiful places to sit and enjoy the outside and the sheep honestly one of the nicest places I’ve stayed at in a very long time Five star quality space all around we kept remarking about the cabin how nice the build was and the materials used. Highly recommend. Also close to Brattleboro for dinner and shopping and a nice lake for swimming and an adorable ice cream store 2 miles away.
