The Space
Kumari of the Woods is a natural wooded environment designed for guests who appreciate peace, nature, and simplicity. The property features backcountry-style trails with moderately rugged terrain, making it ideal for hiking, exploring, and disconnecting from busy everyday life. The quiet forest setting provides a relaxing escape with very few distractions beyond the sounds of nature.

The cottage is easily accessible from the driveway, though the property is located approximately two miles up a dirt road. During winter months and mud season, an AWD or 4WD vehicle with good tires is highly recommended for a smooth arrival.

The driveway is plowed during winter, but Vermont weather can still create snowy or muddy road conditions depending on the season. Guests should be comfortable driving on rural dirt roads, especially during winter and mud season. If you happen to run into any issues during your stay, we’ll always do our best to help.
Make yourself comfortable in this cottage, featuring a kitchen with an oven and a stovetop. There's a private balcony.
Guests will find features like internet access.
