This Monkton, Vermont library cottage was once home to adventures, fairy tales, comics, mysteries and fiction. It has recently been transformed into a welcoming space for travelers to call their home away from home. Very centrally located between Burlington and Middlebury, within walking distance to the new Monkton Town Library and Chocolate Store. Enjoy breathtaking sunrises over Camel's Hump and sunsets over the Adirondacks. Within a short drive, 15 mins. to local restaurants, hikes, fishing, rivers, skiing (Middlebury Snow Bowl, Sugarbush, Mad River Glen, and Bolton Valley), and mountain biking. We are eco-friendly and are mindful of our carbon footprint that we will leave behind.
The Monkton Library Cottage was appointed and located perfectly for our 3 week stay while visiting younger family members nearby. We were able to cook simple meals and had our own space to relax in peace. The grocery store and laundromat in nearby Hinesburg was easy to find and use. Our host, Nina, was available and very responsive. We'd stay at the Monkton Library Cottage again without hesitation.
The cottage is like staying in a home, not a typical rental. Comfortable furniture, bed and pillows, good linens and towels, and the most well-supplied kitchen I have seen in a rental. Everything is clean and maintained. Though just off a busy road, it is quiet in the house. Well-located for visiting nearby towns. Food not far away. I felt safe and enjoyed my stay.
This cozy cottage was the perfect getaway for us. The kitchen was well-stocked with cookware, dishes, and utensils for cooking our own meals. Everything is very new and in great condition, and the A/C worked well in the July heat. The location is perfect for enjoying nature, while still being a short drive from Burlington and lots of great food and drink options.
We had a flat tire our first morning at the cottage and several locals were very helpful in guiding us to where to get it repaired. The property manager was very responsive to questions. The cottage was very attractively decorated, the bed and sofa were very comfortable and the heating system worked very quickly.
The Monkton Library Cottage was the perfect spot for us to stay while visiting our son and family. It was clean, cozy and equipped with everything we needed for making soup to bring to a family dinner. We won't hesitate to book again!Teri from Connecticut
We loved staying at this cottage! Perfect for the two of us, while we visited our daughter who couldnât come home for her Thanksgiving break from UVM. The furnishings, and decor were perfect and we were able to come back at the end of the day to a warm and cozy place!! We will definitely return!
My wife and I had our honeymoon in Vermont and stayed at thjs quaint cottage. It was the perfect getaway for the two of us. The cottage was very nice and communication with the owner was easy.
The Library Cottage met and exceeded our expectations. It was cozy, clean, welcoming and very well stocked. A perfect place for us to stay while visiting our Vermont family. We will definitely be booking again.
We enjoyed our anniversary stay at the cottage. Itâs the perfect spot in the country for a couple. Well equipped and decorated. Nina was a great host and answered any questions we had promptly.
My husband and I stayed here when visiting Vermont for our anniversary. We absolutely loved the cottage! It had everything we needed and it was so cozy. It was just a short drive away from Burlington and Stowe. Our host, Nina, was easy to communicate with and responsed to our questions quickly. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit to Vermont. We can't wait!
My partner and I very much enjoyed our stay here! The place was clean, well-kept, and cozy. The living room was comfortable and homey. The bathroom was very clean and neat, though we were only given about half a roll of toilet paper and no extra. The main bedroom was small but relaxing. We didn't realize the main bed was a double (our fault!) so it was a little tight but not uncomfortable at all.
Nina was an excellent host who responded quickly and gave clear instructions. Check-in instructions arrived late due to technical issues (no fault of the host) but was quickly resolved.
Overall my partner and I would be happy to stay here and have Nina as our host again!
The location of the cottage was great... out of the way, but not too far from restaurants, grocery store, etc. (only about 20 minutes to Burlington). It was very clean and we had good communications with the host. Recommended!
Had to be in Burlington, VT to help our daughter with moving into UVM and chose the cottage as is was close enough to college but still felt out in the country. We stayed 4 days and loved the cottage, the location and the neighborhood. Nina has thought of everything you would need, we didnât want for anything. Fully furnished kitchen, wonderful shower, cozy bedroom. Parking was convenient (located outside the cottage) and there was great information in the cottage recommending what to see, where to eat, how to get there. Highly recommend and plan to return. Compliments to Nina on the property and how easy it was to communicate with her.
