Meet The Host
Daisy
Owner
This was my father’s property that we spent my youth visiting for ski vacations & summer days at the lake. I loved Vermont so much I moved here after finishing High School and never left! It has been a family effort to revitalize the property, tend the gardens (which were my first gardens 20 years ago!), and to finish the projects my father started. There is a lot of love put into every inch of this place inside and out. The daughter of a landscaper and woodworker, I have a great appreciation for fine craftsmanship and put my all into every detail.
It warms my heart to get to open this space for others to visit and create their own new memories!

House Rules
We LOVE our Cabin in the Woods and hope you do too! Please treat it with love and respect. In order to create a safe and welcoming environment for our guests (and neighbors) we put together these house rules:
Access:
We think our cabin is the perfect place for families to gather, but, please know, there are multiple steps required to access the home and it has not been childproofed.
Extra Guests:
While we welcome you to have a quiet gathering with friends and family after the day's adventures, please refrain from having more than 12 people on premises at a time and no unapproved overnight guests.
Apres Ski:
Please do not bring skis, snowboards, or their associated boots into the house. We have created a space for you to access in the workshop (garage) below the cabin, accessible from the driveway where you park, to leave these items. The space contains seating and a heated area to leave your boots to dry overnight. The remainder of the workshop, beyond the “mudroom” area, is strictly off limits.
Pets, Animals, and Garbage:
No pets at any time.
Wildlife can be abundant at the cabin - chipmunks, birds, deer, and even the occasional bear romping in the garden. In order to keep you and the wildlife safe, keep a distance and never leave garbage (or food leftovers) outside the designated trash receptacles.
Washer/Dryer:
We welcome you to do laundry as needed and ask that you make sure to turn the dryer off anytime you leave the property.
Grill:
Please do not move the grill anywhere else on the deck. It is placed in the safest location it can be on the deck. You are welcome to move the grill off of the deck to the lawn outback as long as it maintains a 3 foot distance from the building.
Fire:
Do not use the wood stove.
No smoking inside the house.
No candles or open flames.
Smoke/Co2 detectors are hardwired according to local fire code, please do not tamper with them.
Departure:
We ask that you lock all windows and doors, make sure the lights are off, and turn down the heat when leaving! (Bonus if you pull the blinds closed!)
