Travel back to a peaceful time

We first stayed at the cabin in the summer of 2010 and returned in 2011! The 1924 cabin is very charming, neat and tidy, and homey. It feels like you are traveling back in time. We practically lived on the front porch with shade and breezes from the lake below. Being at the end of the lake was peaceful and private. We enjoyed using the canoe and taking a swim from the dock. We walked the roads in the area and found old homesteads and great views. The location was perfect for getting to a farm stand and into Wilmington, Brattleboro and beyond. We call it Lake RaypondAhhhhhhh.
Owner's Response: We have had so many wonderful family gatherings here, and now we are enjoying sharing our cabin on the lake with others.

The first time renting this cabin but not the first time on lake Raponda. We love the area and come back every year. The cabin easily accommodate 4 adults and 3 children. We loved the canoe and deck. Great fishing, hiking. There is a little beach area in walking distance from the cabin.

House on Lake Raponda

  • Submitted: Aug 7, 2009
  • Stayed: Jul 2009
The house was perfect for the 7 of us. The main problem was the "waterfront." We're swimmers and getting into and out of the lake was a problem (lots of large rocks to stumble over and 8" of muck on the bottom). A better site for boating. Owner was very accomodating.

Owner's Response: This is a mountain lake and does have a mud floor. We have added sand to help swimmers walk into the lake! :)

Spent one week here August '08. Would be here again this summer except for family obligations. Excellent fishing, boating, swimming. Peaceful--cabin situated so you barely know your neighbors are there. Cabin very spacious-plenty of room for kids and their friends. Modern kitchen. Love the porch overlooking the lake. Pleased that canoe was included. Used it alot. Restaurants in Wilmington, Brattleboro and Bennington--all within 1/2 hours drive. Hope to be back again someday. Family time was precious here.

Lakeside Paradise

  • Submitted: Jun 15, 2009
  • Stayed: Oct 2008
I have stayed in this cabin on two occasiosns, once during summer,and another during Vermot's glorious foliage time in October. Both experiences were delightful. The view from the porch and main bedroom are idyllic, right "on golden pond". It is a true log cabin with rustic aesthetics but compete comfort. There are artistic touches like hand painted cabinetry and big comfy living room with lake views. I found it peaceful, restorative, and cozy. I will most definitely return and recommend it to my friends. My husband and I stayed once, and another time came with a group. It sleeps quite a few and makes a lovely group getaway as well as cozy romantic retreat. The town of Wilmington (3 minute drive to town center) is filled with charming shops and good food, including our breakfast favorite, Dot's. Though nothing beats a good hot coffee and a good book on the porch of this cabin!
