The home is charming, immaculate and amidst woods with no neighbors in eye or earshot. It is on a dirt road, so an awd vehicle is a good idea. A stream runs along the driveway. The Ottauquechee River is across the road. The bathroom is on the first floor, and bedrooms on the second floor. The smoke detector goes off if you saute on the stove. I recommend learning how to turn off a wired in smoke detector. You should open the kitchen window when you saute, because most of the smoke detectors about 15 ft from the floor.
The road is a rural road, leading to other roads that extend to Billings Farm in Woodstock, terrific to walk on. Other places to walk are Happy Valley Road and the Marsh Billings Rockefeller National Park. If you time your walk at the national park, leave an hour to get to South Peak to hear Woodstock's church bells, you will feel you've entered a Christmas card.
We ate at Pizza Chef, which plays terrific jazz, but wear warm clothes! Also at Simon Pearce- make your reservation a few weeks in advance for a weekend table. The food at both places was great.
The trip was a winter wonderland.

The house is located right next to a river and is surrounded by trees, ferns, and flowers--just a lovely lot! It's a short drive to Woodstock and Queechee, so it's great for exploring the area. The house itself has all of the supplies needed for cooking and hanging out with family. The stairs are quite steep, so it was a bit challenging to have bedrooms upstairs and the only bathroom downstairs. Unlike the photos, there was quite a bit of furniture and 2 air conditioners haphazardly placed in the bedrooms. The house could use a bit of attention to make it more welcoming. Our communication with the the host was just fine and everything happened as it should have. I also appreciated that the host checked in with us by text on the cleanliness of the house--that's not also ways done and was a nice touch.

This is the perfect winter Vermont-getaway house for people who: have a car that does well in snow/ice/mud and know how to drive it, know how to walk up an icy slope safely day or night, can handle a steep wooden staircase (with a good handrail), don’t mind going downstairs to use the bathroom, and don’t mind not being able to unpack.
Riverside Cottage is perfectly located near Woodstock and Quechee, near xc skiing and not too far from downhill.
The kitchen is wonderfully equipped with anything you could need.
There is only one closet in the whole house, in the entry, and it was locked, presumably containing the owners personal belongings. Across the entry sitting room, there was a metal clothing rack with 1 (ONE) hanger on it (but two ironing boards). Thus, upon entry, no place for winter/ski jackets, snow pants, hats, gloves, scarves, etc. Upstairs, in the two large bedrooms, there is no storage at all, no luggage racks, bureaus, or even hooks, just beds, nightstands, and a rocking chair. There are a few nooks, such as top of stairs, where closets could be created.
Otherwise, this is a perfectly charming place in a beautiful setting.
