Our off grid rustic cabin is nestled in the woods on the edge of a meadow on our 250 acre Organic Dairy Farm. Come to relax and unplug. Our cabin was built for memories to be made. The bunkroom is full of beds. The cabin is full of boardgames, cards to be played at the 8’ table and a dart board! There is a small kitchen with a farmhouse sink (water via handpump) full size propane stove and fridge. There is even a quintessential Vermont Outhouse. We have everything you will need!
The space
The tiny cabin is post and beam construction from locally milled timbers. They feature wide plank floors and stunning views out every window! The cabin and bunkhouse have a rustic cozy feel for you and your family or a friends' getaway. The cabin and bunkhouse are located on a 175 acre parcel with in our 250 acre organic dairy farm. The Wilburness Lodge has a full kitchen with a sink (no running water, there is water at the sink via hand pump), full-size propane stove and oven, full-sized propane fridge, Vermont Castings Gas Fireplace for heat, ceiling fan, sofa, and a large dining room table. There are pots, pans, dishes, and silverware provided. Lots of family-favorite board games in the main lodge. Solar lights and radio in the cabin. Recent renovations have made the cabin toasty and warm for your quiet winter stay.
The bunkrook in the cabin features one set of queen bunk beds and two sets of twin bunk beds and a Queen Bed. The bunkroom can sleep a max of 10. There are basic linens, pillows, and blankets provided.
The property is located directly on the VAST trail system. Ride in and stay the night or trailer in. Contact us for special stopover reservations for VAST members.
The beautiful Champlain Valley of Vermont is home to farms, orchards, camping, fishing, hunting, kayaking, golfing, skiing and so much more.
Sunset lake is located in Orwell about 15 minutes away for a nice refreshing swim. Lake Champlain is nearby for boating and fishing. We are 40 minutes from Middlebury Snowbowl, 50 minutes from Pico Mountain, and 60 minutes from Killington Mountain. The cabin is 25 minutes from the Middlebury College campus and 20 minutes from the Castleton University Campus. It's a wonderful way to take time to smell the trees and air and appreciate all the beauty around you. Come see what it's all about.
Attention: This is an off grid, cabin in the woods. It is a great place to get away and unplug. It does not have electricity. There is no where to plug in your cell phone (we recommend a car charger). There is cell service, it works best at the end of the driveway (verizon works best) but why look at your phone when you could be stargazing to more stars than most guests have seen in their whole life?! If you need to be connected throughout your stay, this is not the cabin for you.
This cabin is not for everyone, but those who come love it. It is a chance to escape the world, and listen to quiet. It gives you the chance to reconnect with your loved ones or friends. Pets love the cabin too! There is tons or room and land to explore outside, with more smells than any dog can smell in one trip! Please know that with nature comes, well nature. Depending on the time of year, there can be bugs at the cabin. There is wildlife you can see off the front porch. We see deer, bunnies, hawks, bald eagles, to name a few.
If you want all the comforts of home, this is not the right stay for you. If you want to stop, relax, and reconnect with others in nature, come and enjoy our cabins. There is no shower available at the cabin. There is plenty of parking for cars, trailers etc right next to the cabins. Again, there is NO electricity at the cabin, that is part of what makes it so special! Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, comments or concerns. We are happy to help and answer!
**Firewood and other farm fresh products are available for purchase seasonally during your stay. We will reach out with offerings once your reservation is confirmed.
