Tucked away in the woodland, this spectacular retreat is located off the town plowed and maintained road, which provides year-round access for all types of recreational fun. The lean-to style, rustic cabin includes two bedrooms, a bathroom area, a kitchen space, and a living room, compete with a charming wood stove. Floor to ceiling windows adjacent to the main entrance provide excellent natural light and wonderful views of your private woodland. Formal power, DSL internet, baseboard electric heat, tracked lighting, and a direct vent propane space heater offer a few creature comforts. Additionally, the kitchen is plumbed for a propane cooking unit. The surrounding hardwood forestland has a gentle slope, many signs of wildlife, and offers great spacing – making it easy to go for a nature walk. Boundaries are well marked with pins, orange flagging, blue blazes. The VAST snowmobile corridor 5 is easily accessible on sections of Emerson Road. Currently, there is no formal water source or wastewater system; however, Vermont Primitive Camp rules could apply, and the year-round permitting process would apply. Offering great proximity to Interstate 91, US-302, and Groton State Forest, hunters, recreationalists, and snowmobilers should not pass this one up!
