You'll find a canoe on site at this pet-friendly cottage. Jump into your car and make short work of the 8-minute drive to Green Mountain National Forest or the 14-minute drive to Wallingford Town Hall (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

After you return, you can unwind on the balcony or sip a drink by the firepit. As for the great indoors, you can come inside and enjoy the free WiFi, TV, and DVD player.

This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom rental features a living room, a BBQ grill, a fireplace, and air conditioning. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a dishwasher, as well as a microwave, cookware, and a blender. And because there's a dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
