It is completely furnished, has outside deck with beautiful views, a slate floor ski/mud entrance, a back entrance perfect for storing bikes, skis gear, and changing out of active wear, and doorstep parking. Convenient to several ski areas (Killington, Pico, Okemo, Suicide Six), downtown Woodstock, great restaurants, shopping, fishing, hiking, Mt. Tom and Rockefeller/Billings National Park Nearly abutts poroperty), Quechee, and other scenic Vermont areas. The property road is one of the most sought after photographed spots in all of Vermont, many coming for the famed Sleepy Hollow photo op. Directly up the hill from us is the Cloudland Farm "farm to table" restaurant. Come enjoy the serenity of a visit to the Woodstock area.
Property: The rental is a renovated Carriage House once used to house the horse caretaker. The rental is across the street from the Main House with plenty of privacy. The surrounding 280 acre property is private and undeveloped. There is a small farm with seasonal cows and farming. During the summer months cows graze some of the fields as well. There are multiple secluded ponds that can be fished for trout or to view deer, ducks, birds of prey and other wildlife. The property has miles of private hiking trails (subject to weather and season) as well as extensive gardens that have been featured in local publications as well as highly sought after by artist looking for landscape painting and gardening enthusiasts.

Beautiful spot - a true slice of heaven
The carriage house was the perfect place for our family to wind down 2023. The location provides easy access to skiing, hiking, and Woodstock attractions and the house is very comfortable. The views are incredible! We loved meeting Margarete and Alice, and hope to be able to visit again soon.

Loved our return visit
We loved our first visit, and our second visit did not disappoint! Mountain sunrises over snow-covered fields were a sight to see, and the Carriage House provided a great location from which to bring our young son to the ski mountains. Thank you again!

Beautiful, relaxing stay in perfect location with lovely host
The carriage house was exactly as described, but the setting in fields and hills could not be captured in photos -- beautiful and changing with time and light. Andrew was the official host, who was very helpful in advance, but his mother, living across the road, was the on-site host and couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful. The location was ideal: quiet and scenic, but a 7-minute drive to Woodstock village. But don't bring your Lamborghini -- the dirt road is rough!

ski getaway
What a wonderful experience we had this past weekend staying at this quaint carriage house. It was everything we needed to spend a quick ski trip with our son. The morning views were serene and relaxing. Just what we wanted to get from visiting VT. The town of Woodstock was quintessential New England. Andrew was responsive to our questions. Margarete was a sweetheart and there to greet us and show us around the house. We will be back in the future.

Idyllic Retreat
This two-bedroom cottage nestled above Woodstock is perfection. After the owner and her daughter gave us a tour and left, my eighteen-year-old son turned to me and pronounced that, at last, he had found the perfect, cozy-yet-modernized house. "Whatever this style is called....THIS is what I want my house to look like," he gushed. My son and I went to Vermont for a retreat over his winter break, and we enjoyed two worlds while staying in this house: the bustling, small-town world of Woodstock proper and the peaceful, sanctuary experience of nature that this cottage offers. Although I am back in Philadelphia now, just thinking about the view from the living room window lowers my blood pressure. The owner, Margarete, and her daughter were lovely, thoughtful, gracious souls. Thank you.

Quintessential Vermont!
Fantastic week spent in the Carriage House. The view from the back porch is so perfect and serene and the house is spacious and so relaxing. Our hosts were among the best we’ve encountered; Andrew provided excellent insight on where to go and what to do and Margarete was an absolute delight! We will definitely stay with you again when In Vermont! If you’re looking for THE perfect getaway that’s close to everything but secluded on a lovely farm, look no further. Loved it!!

Did not want to leave
All we can say is we experienced "Vermont vacation perfection". All of the previous reviews about the property, the setting, the views, the town are all "spot on". Margarete and her dog, Alice, greeted us on our arrival and were so welcoming and fun to talk with. The Carriage House was very clean and comfortable and the views from the windows and deck are post-card worthy. It was hard to leave at the end of the week and we plan to visit again as soon as our schedule allows. Thank you Margarete!

Exceeded Expectations!!!
Everything about our stay exceeded expectations! The property was clean, had all the amenities we needed and very comfortable….which was expected! However, the responsiveness and friendliness of Andrew , the views, the location, and the lane, which was perfect for dog walking, running and lazy summer walks, put our stay over the top. Even the neighbors, cows, neighboring dogs and donkeys were friendly!!! The owners were so welcoming and opened up the beautiful farm and views to us. The proximity to Woodstock and Queschee was perfect while providing a wonderful Vermont experience. Finally, morning coffee and evening beverages on the deck overlooking the valley…. Perfection!! If we could give the property 10 stars we would!!
