The space

Welcome to our dreamy little A-frame, tucked away on over 3 private wooded acres—a true Vermont escape where the only sounds you’ll hear are the wind through the trees and the birds in the morning. Inside, sunlight pours through the windows, creating a warm, inviting glow throughout the day. The open living space is perfect for cozy mornings or winding down after of skiing or hiking, complete with a new pellet stove that adds just the right amount of cabin charm. The kitchen is fully equipped with a gas stove, oven, microwave, and dishwasher—whether you're cooking a full meal or just heating up local maple syrup for pancakes. The downstairs bedroom offers a double bed and twin bed—perfect for kids or an extra-comfy spot for couples. The main floor also features a full bath with a standing shower, stocked with fluffy towels and shower-ready toiletries. PS our favorite bathroom feature is the heated floors :) Upstairs, you'll find a peaceful loft with a queen bed and convenient half bath. Both sleeping spaces include storage and extra blankets for those cooler Vermont nights. There are also fans for cooling when it gets warm. We’re proud to be a kid and dog-friendly cabin. Toddlers and kids can enjoy a basket of toys and books, board games, and a booster seat to make family meals easier. We also have a pack n play (please BYO sheet). For your pup, you'll find a water and food bowl ready in the laundry room, plus a fully fenced backyard to keep them safe while you relax. Step outside to your own private haven—our backyard is surrounded by tall trees and lit by string lights giving an ideal outdoor oasis vibe. The backyard is completely fenced in, with a gate for easy access. Relax and enjoy our brand new back deck with outdoor dining and lounging options. Roast marshmallows around the fire pit (we provide the firewood!) or sip your coffee while the birds welcome the day. There's also grill for evening cookouts in the summer and fall. ☀️ Private 3-acre wooded setting 🛏 Two cozy sleeping areas (queen loft + double/twin room) 🔥 Pellet stove + outdoor fire pit 🍽 Fully equipped kitchen + dining/work table 🧸 Kid and dog-friendly with thoughtful touches 📺 Streaming-ready TV + fast WiFi 🌲 Fenced yard with peaceful forest views ♨️ BBQ + outdoor dining under the stars Follow us on IG for photos and updates: @blackriveraframe Planning a Fall/Winter stay?
