Spoon Mountain House is set at the edge of our family's 1200 acres of conserved forest, farm land and wilderness. Our family has had this land for 50 years, and was one of the pioneers in Vermont land conservation. The solar-powered house has comfy beds, amazing views, and serenity. We have our own spring with the most delicious crystal clear water. It's good for couples, solo adventurers, families, and big groups of friends who want to spend quiet time in the countryside. The space This is a lovely 2-story house with a large attached garage and barn space. There are four bedrooms total, two bathrooms, and two large common rooms. It has been completely renovated and furnished. Guest access All. Other things to note Please note that this house is rural and Vermont winters can be harsh. AWD is strongly recommended during the winter and please be prepared for the possibility of snow storms. The driveway IS plowed and sanded after a storm but it may take a few hours for the plow driver to make it by. Depending on how bad the storm is, you may be snowed in for half a day or so. Ping pong table and hammock in the barn, dairy cows down the road, horseback riding too. Lovely hikes to the top of Tinmouth Mountain, with White Rocks and Haystack Mountain nearby. In summer enjoy picking berries, swimming in local water holes and abandoned quarries. Rutland has bowling and indoor climbing walls. Middletown Springs has the amazing Cissy's Restaurant and handmade pottery at Rising Meadow Pottery. This is a great place to let kids play in the brook in bare feet. Cell service is spotty but we have wifi, so unplug if you want.
