Downstairs, enjoy an outdoor shower and a sauna clad in cedar. Outside, relax on the lake dock or treetop deck after walking on trails in neighboring Pelots Natural Area.
The 1 ha (2.5 ac) lakefront land parcel and floor to ceiling windows provide spaciousness. The Italian pellet stove and Finnish sauna provide coziness.

We really enjoyed our stay at Tradstuga. The house had such a luxurious feel with all of the wonderful amenities provided by the host. The bed was really comfortable and cozy and the climate control in the house was great. We spent a lot of time on the deck enjoying the beautiful scenery and nature all around us. Bryan was very responsive to the minor issues we encountered and communication was excellent. We would not hesitate to stay here again on a future visit to this area.
We stayed at Tradstuga for a holiday weekend (2 adults 1 toddler). The property is exactly as pictured - clean, new, and beautifully decorated. Bryan, the host, has put a lot of care and attention to making the home feel Swedish, down to decor, plates and mugs, and linens. We appreciated these details and took note of a lot of the homewares to buy for ourselves one day! Guests receive a generous gift bag of local maple syrup, dishtowels, pens, and pancake mix. It's a lovely welcome and we have enjoyed all of the products so far.Bryan's commitment to eco-friendly products is clear, and he provided cleaning sprays, (Swedish!) dishcloths, washing powders, compost bags, etc. The kitchen was nicely outfitted with tea/coffee, salt, pepper, a few seasonings, and Grazia olive oil.The beds are extremely comfortable and we all slept well in the house. Climate controls worked well and kept the home cool in the heat of the summer.Water pressure was good in the bathrooms, and there are SO many towels! A family of four could stay for 2 weeks and not need to wash towels. There are makeup towels, hand towels, and beach towels as well. Bryan has stocked the bathrooms with local Vermont toiletries, which was a lovely touch.We spent a lot of time on the porch enjoying the view and had a really lovely weekend. Bryan was a wonderful host and it's clear he has put a lot of thought and effort into creating and maintaining the property. We look forward to returning in the future.
