Sad to go
We couldn't have asked for a better location or better accommodations. This place had everything we needed and wanted. We enjoyed the fire place every evening and the trails during the day. We were impressed with everything down to the quality of the plates. We can't wait to come back.

This is the perfect cabin in Dorset VT! The views on the way in are spectacular. Hiking right out the back door and cozy natural wood experience on the inside. I will definitely be returning to the same location every October!

Tree House
Absolutely loved the studio in the woods and the cabin decor. A tree trunk in the center of the room added to the ambiance. I often judge a rental by the kitchen amenities and the studio had it all. Sharp knives are a rarity and I was pleasantly surprised. Had we not been visiting family, we would have hung out at the studio and walked the trails on the property. Can't say enough good things about the property, and will definitely book when visiting family again. This is by far our favorite VRBO.

Lovely mountain cabin
We adored this place! Such a peaceful getaway while still close to town. We (stupidly) did not save the access instructions which was only an issue as there is no cell service while there. Thankfully I was able to pull up the email anyways but just a heads up for those visiting! Would 110% come back!

Cutest cabin, best location
We loved staying at this wonderful property at the end of Dorset Hollow. It’s truly in a magical location right by the forest, a creek, and walking distance to Dorsets hiking trails. We even heard a barred owl at night! The property is private, quiet, and truly has everything you need. Check in was super easy, but I would encourage guests to have the info downloaded before heading into Dorset Hollow where there is no phone service. Also, keep in mind there is no air conditioning- although open windows let in a nice breeze in the summer heat.

Off the beaten path, with breath-taking views
Near the end of the road (and well off of it) and at the base of Dorset Peak, this studio was an excellent spot for a quiet getaway. The main house is within view, but only as much as an average neighbor would be. It's one room, but it's above a three+ stall garage and PLENTY big enough for a full kitchen, dining table, two large beds, a wood burning fireplace and sitting area. The last three miles to the house have breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. It's 10 minutes to the main road, but right there is a GREAT bakery/breakfast restaurant. Manchester is near enough for dinner, shopping, etc if you don't find something you like in Dorset. The place was clean and stocked and the owner was communicative and helpful. We'd go back and would recommend it for others.

Lovely cabin in the woods
It was great staying here in Dorset, VT. Brad was very welcoming and responsive. The location was great for skiing at Stratton and Mount Snow. The neighbors were friendly and there was lots of space in the area to adventure. Would definitely stay again!
