Photos and Description of the Springfield vacation lodge rental
2 bedrooms plus loft sleeps 6-7 , Child and Pet Friendly

Drive up the country road, over the roaring gorge of the Williams River, past farms and hillsides. Turn onto the long driveway, pass the sparkling pond. The air is fresh, the view is beautiful, and the house is comfortable. You have arrived.

Let the kids run off their energy in the huge, mowed yard, while you read that novel in the hammock or go fishing in the pond. Take a nice nature hike, cool off in the pond, throw dinner on the grill, then build a campfire, roast some marshmallows, look up at the stars.

No kids? Grab a bottle of wine and some nice aged Vermont cheddar, sit in the Adirondack chairs, watch while hummingbirds come to the gardens and wait for deer to emerge from the forest. Cook a romantic meal in the well equipped kitchen, then snuggle up to a fire in the stone fireplace.

Inside, with classic and antique furnishings, you'll feel right at home surrounded by the stone and wood elements, while the art stimulates your mind and spirit.

This house is all that it should be inside, and more than you can imagine outside, with nature and opportunity abundant.

Weekend Getaway!

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Feb 6, 2013
  • Stayed: Feb 2013
We needed to get away with the kids and found this quaint cottage. It was a very secluded place, quiet, peaceful and just what we wanted. The cottage was cozy, filled with fabulous artwork. The beds were comfortable and the entire home was extremely clean. Everything that we needed was there - kitchen utensils, small appliances, books, movies, phone, wifi, everyone was happy including the dog! The pond in the front of the property was frozen to perfection and the kids spent almost the entire day ice skating only to come in from the cold and enjoy a nice hot chocolate. Cathy was available when you needed her. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to catch their breath and simply relax!
Owner's Response: Thank you, Tamara!

I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the property as much as we do!

Peaceful and Private

  • Submitted: Oct 4, 2012

My family stayed here and drove to Londonderry for a scenic view of the autumn multicolored forest. We had an excellent lunch at The Grille there. Nearby towns are worth the drive. Chester is like an old postcard that came to life. Visit the shops in Bellows Falls just down the road on 103. The whole area is charming, interesting, filled with history and picturesque. The location of VCL is easily accessible but still feels remote. The property is rustic with minimal privacy between rooms, but that said I would recommend it for close-knit groups or families. The owner Catherine was accommodating in all respects. We especially appreciated the baby accessories she provided. I would go back there and recommend it to the traveler who takes "The Road Less Traveled". Not your Holiday Inn experience!
Great for people who like art, open outdoor spaces, and quiet.

Perfect Secluded Vermont Cabin

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Feb 1, 2012
  • Stayed: Jan 2012
This is an absolutely wonderful cottage. It is secluded on the end of the road with a lovely view of a small pond. Though there is a house relatively close by, you cannot see it from the cottage. The cottage has both a rustic and a homey feel. As soon as we got there, we felt right at home. 5 of us (+ 1 dog) stayed here without a problem. I wish we could have stayed longer. Furthermore, we went skiing at Okemo during our visit and its only a 20 min drive.

The descriptions the owners give is right on the money. There are 2 'official bedrooms', one with a queen and one with a full bed. There is also the loft space with two twins but there is no door to this space. The large couch is also a pull out, but we didn't use that. There is also a fireplace and a wood burning stove. We were only there for a short time so we didn't use either of these but they are available. The table for dining will seat 6 or more. A nice feature. The whole cottage is well kept and well stocked. Everything we thought to look for, they had. The owners provided me with all the information I needed and the instructions were very clear. As an extra added bonus, there are wonderful pieces of art and unique pieces sprinkled throughout the cottage. The owners clearly care about the place and have worked hard to make it inviting.

If you are looking for a secluded spot, this is the place. We will definitely try to come back and I would recommend it to anyone!. Note: the owners aren't kidding about needing 4 wheel drive when visiting in the winter! :) LOVE LOVE love this place.

Beautiful location

The property was in a beautiful and quiet location(except the neighbor's roster).The kitchen was well equiped and the house was clean.We were close to New Hampshire for tax free shopping.The only drawback was that there was not any comfortable seating,the sofa and loveseat are overdue to be replaced.

Owner's Response: Yes, I admit the couch is not the greatest, but it is not old-just not well constructed. Most pet friendly places have much older furniture. The couches are 5 years old. As for the rooster, he is 1/4 mile away... But I can understand that this would bother some folks. I am glad you enjoyed everything otherwise!

**UPDATE** Adjustments have been made to the couch, it offers more support now!

Clean charming cottage. Very warm and cozy place to stay on a cold winter day. Not to far of a drive from the Vermont Country Store. We enjoyed sleigh riding in the back yard after a snow storm... plenty of fire wood was provided for us to last the week.
