Private Mountain Pond Cabin
About this cabin rental
Welcome to Edeneast If it’s a private back to nature experience you are seeking, you have found an ideal setting for that. This quiet off the grid cabin, all powered by propane, is very private, is at an elevation of 1100 feet and fronts on a crystal clear pond with no other camps in view. Get away from the busy stressful world we all live in and relax. . Eden is a wonderful place to take in the Vermont summer or fall. Reconnect with nature and each other here. The cabin faces west on the pond and has a screened porch overlooking the pond. This is a comfortable but simple cabin that does not have electricity but has propane lights, gas fridge, stove, hot water heater and full bathroom. It is an Open design on the lower level with kitchen, living room dining area and one bedroom with a double bed and bathroom. There is also a loft for additional sleeping area. The property has 400 feet of frontage on the pond with swimming area, dock and canoe.You can even swim au natural if you want ! The pond has beaver, turtle, visiting loons and ducks and has perch, bass and sunfish for the fisherman. Everything you need for cooking, meal preparation and utensils is provided. You must bring your own sheets, ( double for the bedroom and queen size for the loft), towels and paper products. Plenty of blankets are on site. There is a Weber charcoal grill available for barbecuing. We do not allow outside campfires due to fire danger. There is no easy way to extinguish a fire. Everything you might need for food is just 3 miles away at a decent size market. If you desire more activity than hanging around the cabin, there are numerous hiking and biking trails nearby and many opportunities for canoeing and fishing. The camp is about 40 minutes north of Stowe, Vt. Which is a charming ski town with great restaurants and shops.The whole area is a recreational paradise: There is a new indoor water park at Jay peak nearby and many interesting towns and other sites to take in. The camp is a beautiful place for the fall foliage and has a wood stove with plenty of wood for those crisp fall days. The Weekly rate is $800.The camp is available for rent from late May through October .The daily rate for stays shorter than a week is $145. There is a minimum 3 day stay policy. I also charge a refundable $100 cleaning/security deposit. This is a unique arrangement in that I rely on the camper to clean the camp thoroughly and remove all garbage before leaving. This keeps the cost down. I limit the number of guests to 4 as there is a dug well and water must be conserved. Because the pond is private and extremely quiet, it is important for any potential renters to understand that they must keep a low profile here so as not to disturb the unique nature of this spot. Dogs may be considered if they present no risk in terms of chasing wildlife or barking. There is a canoe provided but due to milfoil concerns, I do not allow renters to put their own kayaks or other boats in the pond. Note, the camp is only available late May to October. It is closed in the winter.

The house is cozy, very clean and in a beautiful location. It's perfect for the totally physically fit who want a quiet get-away and intend to stay put for most of their stay. Otherwise, it involves a long, bumpy ride to the main road and at least a 20 mile drive to the nearest store of any size. Writers, artists and others who like to do their own thing would be pleased. The Eden General Store has some groceries but nothing organic if that's important to you. We took rather long trips to hikes, rail trails for biking and visited friends an hour away. The pond is clean and inviting except for access which is challenging not only along the path but also getting on and off the dock. I have shown photos to friends who are interested in this kind of experience. They are younger and just looking for a peaceful rest which this cabin offers.

If you are looking for a lovely serene place to hang out in nature, swim, and get away from it all, this is it. The cabin has everything one needs for a simple relaxing vacation with tons of light/windows, books, games, candles, folding chairs, all the kitchen necessities and a very comfy couch and beds. Ed is just terrific to work with as well. Highly recommended!

I loved everything about it, lack of coverage, zero electricity and propane lamps I had to learn to light on. Location is perfect, very close to hiking trails, nice pond where you can swim and beautiful fall foliage around us (we came in October). Ed is great, he gave us very detailed instructions, communication with him was a breeze and he made no issues when we wanted to extend our stay. I will be back for sure.

A beautiful location nearby tons of outdoor activities. We loved our relaxing time here by Gut pond. We fished, hiked and visited beautiful Newport and sampled the excellent and varied library of books in the cabin. Ed was quick to responded to any questions we had .
We hope to return soon.!

We loved Ed’s place! Total privacy we saw two bikers in 6 days. Ed is a great communicator. If you need to recharge it’s perfect, calming place on a small private pond. Definitely a rustic cabin but nice, great hot water! We’d visit again!

Booked this property for 3 days and wished I could have stayed longer. This place is so peaceful and secluded which was exactly what I was looking for. Ed was great to communicate with and allowed us to also bring our dog. The only thing I would add is that the path to lake is steep and when wet was very slippery. We hope to return again someday! Thank you for sharing your place with us.

This cabin on Gut Pond is a real treat! Since I did not have cell service in this location, it was a real step back into simpler living. The 3-season porch was my favorite spot with great views and pond breezes. We swam, we canoed, we checked out the beaver, we hiked to the fire tower at Elmore State Park (outstanding views), we hiked to Prospect Rock out of Johnson - another great view shed. It was a wonderful opportunity to unhook and let go.

What you get at Eden Cabin is a cleansing of the soul and mind. You are really alone there save for a distant cabin which shares the road to the cabin. You will never know you are off the grid- plenty of hot water and a cold frig. Also, Stowe is only 20-25 minutes away and Newport to the N a little more. I hope to return maybe in the fall. The photos tell the story

We are return campers from 9 years ago. The cabin was exactly as we remember which made us totally delighted. We were able to relax and renew. If you are looking for a quiet and peaceful vacation this is the place. We packed up lots of groceries, swim suits and sun screen and had no reason to leave this little oasis. We were lulled to sleep by the sounds of bull frogs and loons. Swam with turtles and beavers every day. Made fantastic meals on a big old gas range and a charcoal grill. The evenings were cool and perfectly lit by propane lanterns on the walls of the cabin.
A great place to swim, read, build puzzles and visit. Can't wait to return again

Beautiful spot for a real getaway. I had some reservations about staying at an off-grid cabin. But they proved to be unfounded. The cabin was overall clean, and all the gas appliances worked just fine. The gravity-supplied water is pretty amazing allowing for standard indoor plumbing. It is a very quiet place with lots of wildlife. You can watch the beavers swimming around the pond at dusk, and hear the frogs croaking. You can spend all day curled up with a book or head out to Stowe for all types of outdoor activities. The cabin is rustic, but if you are looking to disconnect, this is a slice of natural paradise.

This cabin was much more than we expected. The view was fantastic and the peace and quiet delightfu
Working with Ed, the owner was the best. He sent us the key well in advance and included accurate directions and instructions on working the propane stove. Refrigerator and lights. Just wish the weather would have cooperated a little more.

Stunning and Simple
Ed's cabin was one of the most beautiful spots I've ever visited. The rustic simplicity of the cabin made it ideal for my boyfriend and I to really get away and enjoy nature and one another. You won't find a lovelier spot in Vermont.

Charming, peaceful camp on lovely pond
As others have said, Edward's camp is a wonderful place to unwind and enjoy nature. After the 4th of July weekend, we had the pond to ourselves - except for loon, birds and beavers! And like others, we quickly learned how to light the propane lights, stove, etc. We also enjoyed the wood stove on a chilly night and rainy morning.
Morristown was a lovely town to explore on a cold day but gazing at the lake, swimming and canoeing was plenty.
We felt like we were in a secluded spot AND close enough to stores, coffee shops, etc. Highly recommend this camp!
