The space is radiant floor heated in the winter and VT cool in the summer. Electric car charging on request is available. This location is perfect for nature lovers, with a local rivers and miles of trails nearby for hiking and mountain biking. Stratton Mt and Mt Snow are only a half hour away and nearby lakes and rivers are perfect for canoeing and kayaking.
The Swing House is a great place to disconnect and rest. We stayed here during our Sonâs College drop off and orientation. We loved seeing the cows and sheep roam while taking in great views of the sun setting and stars shining. We will be back to stay for parents weekend at Landmark College!
What a lovely stay! Picturesque and true to Vermont. Morning coffee on the deck watching the fog lift from the valley was a highlight. Our hosts were fantastic and extremely considerate from booking to checkout. Would definitely stay again.
The location is beautiful and convenient to multiple hiking trails. We loved watching the sunset on the deck and the atmosphere is incredibly relaxing. Johnny and Sara are wonderful, welcoming hosts and we enjoyed getting to know them and seeing their incredibly property. The house has all that youâll need for a comfortable farmstay! Even on hot days it cools off at night for comfortable sleeping. You wonât regret staying here!
My husband and I really enjoyed our long weekend stay. Johnny and Sara were great. We were immediately welcomed as we drove in. The guest home had a list of local restaurants and other places to visit, but Johnny was also very helpful recommending restaurants and a grocery store in the area. The house was very clean and although there was no air conditioning, the house was cool at night with the windows open and the fan going. The wraparound deck was an amazing place to watch the sunset and see the cows and sheep on the property. I would recommend this place for anyone looking for some peace and quiet.
If you want peace and quiet, this is the place. Perfect, friendly hosts always willing to share their experience. Time stood still during our visit. At night, the fireflies and stars were brilliant!We plan to visit again.
The property was perfect for our family of 4. Comfortable inside and the grounds and view were beautiful. Little town with a great market and restaurants 8 minute away and 40 minutes from 2 great skiing options. Johnny was a great host. He invited us to meet and feed the animals one morning and gave us a tour of his art studio. He could not of been more accommodating and friendly with our family and dog. We hope to go back.
We enjoyed a lovely Christmas getaway here. Beautiful setting with mountain views and truly spectacular stars at night - there was so little light pollution we could even make out the shape of the milky way! And the silence was absolute - so peaceful! Sara and Johnny were very responsive and helpful hosts!
Amazing cozy cottage set in a beautiful agricultural setting. Turn off the paved road, ramble up the mountain and turn into this lovely space with sweeping views and good neighbors (the cows and sheep). Be sure this rural space will help you relax and recharge. Lovely hosts, clean and organized space.
Cute cottage in the middle of a working farm. Perfect setting for Vermont. Could use more seating in living room but it was fine for the 2 of us. Overall we enjoyed it and will definitely consider again for next fall.
Our stay at Johnny & Sara's was lovely. The cabin is charming and full of Johnny's amazing artwork. The radiant floor heating was just right for the chilly October mornings and the views from the property were so nice ! Johnny and Sara were generous with their time, showing us a bit of their own 200 year old house as well as another property they are fixing up. We highly recommend the cabin to those looking for a quiet, Vermont retreat!
We really enjoyed our stay here! Sara and Johnny were phenomenal hosts. The house was very clean and comfortable. The area and fall foliage were beautiful! We got to participate in feeding the farm animals in the morning which was so cool to see. Great for any age!
We 3 sisters had a wonderful mini-reunion weekend at the cottage. Idyllic setting, beautiful views, comfortable beds, great decor, cute farm animals, and great hosts! What more could you ask for? (Be aware that the kitchen is a kitchenette, with a mini-refrigerator with virtually no freezer space. It is very well-equipped for its size, however.)
We had a great stay and Johnny was a gracious host. Beautiful view from the deck and lots of great hiking nearby. Bottle feeding the lambs in the evening was an unexpected bonus.
We'd definitely return for another stay in the future.
My family and I recently spent four delightful days at this charming rustic cottage. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by its cozy ambiance and picturesque surroundings.
The cottage exudes old-world charm with its exposed wooden beams, stone fireplace, and antique furnishings. It felt like stepping back in time, yet without sacrificing modern comforts. Surprisingly, this quaint retreat also offered all the conveniences we needed. The fully equipped kitchen allowed us to prepare home-cooked meals, and the gas stove was a delightful surprise. The blend of rustic and contemporary was seamless.
Our hosts were warm, welcoming, and attentive. They shared local tips, ensuring we explored nearby trails and scenic spots. Their passion for the area was contagious, and we felt like part of their extended family.
The highlight? The grazing sheep, cows, and lambs just beyond the cottage. Each morning, we sipped coffee on the porch, watching them meander through the green fields. It was a soothing escape from city life.
In summary, if youâre seeking a peaceful getaway that combines rustic charm with modern amenities, look no further. We left feeling rejuvenated, grateful for the hostsâ hospitality, and already planning our next visit.
This was such a lovely stay. The cottage is clearly such a labour of love for Johnny and Sara. It's designed to maximise light and air in a small space and you can tell that Johnny is an artist/designer from how beautifully it is laid out and decorated. It's simple but really comfortable. The big sell for us was the incredible deck: we spent a lot of time on that. We and our two year-old really loved seeing the lambs, sheep, and cows. Johnny and Sara were friendly and helpful but not obtrusive. A really relaxing short getaway in a peaceful setting.
The farm cottage exceeded our expectations. Johnny is the best host weâve ever had. He has an amazing property and made us feel welcome. His metal work is top notch and there are many treasures around the property to check out. He recommended a fun hike to a camp with great mountain views. The animals felt like part of our crew. And the maple syrup he gave us hit the spot. He is living his best life and we had a blast getting to enjoy it for a few days. Very clean, comfortable and relaxing.
The location is idyllic, the hosts are extremely friendly and helpful and the actual house is really clean, neat and serene. I'll definitely be coming back!
The home had a lot of charm. Very comfortable beds, clean, on a cool farm and dog friendly. Johnny was extremely helpful with any info we needed. Would def stay there again. It also had everything we needed to cook our meals. We used it to go to MT Snow which was a quick 25 minute ride.
Johnny and Sara are generous and delightful hosts! The cottage is situated perfectly on their lovely property, offering stunning sunset views and ample peace and quiet. A perfect place to get away from the screens and relax in nature.
We had a great stay at this charming farm cottage. Great location to explore VT, NH, and MA. Sara and Johnny are great hosts and genuinely nice people. They are very attentive without being intrusive. The view from the back deck is beautiful with amazing sunsets. Being greeted by the cows and sheep in the morning was really fun for us.
I had a lovely 2 night stay surrounded by beautiful foliage. The hosts were amazingly gracious, even dropping off an upgraded router for the wifi. The bed was comfortable and there was more than enough space. And, the maple syrup was almost thoughtful! I look forward to returning next year. Thank you for a wonderful weekend!
We live on this gentlemen's farm full time with our cows and sheep. We are available if you need us, while you enjoy plenty of privacy. Johnny is a furniture designer and Sara works with horses.
