About this country house rental
Located in Vermont's beautiful Northeast Kingdom, our circa 1850 farmhouse is an oasis of hand-hewn charm and modern comfort high above the noise and worries of everyday life. Except for a nearby sugar house, we're the only place on a secluded dirt road and are surrounded by over 21 acres of fields & forest, peace & quiet (the nearest neighbor is over 1/2 mile away). However, the road is maintained year-round and the farmstead is only 1.2 miles from Vermont Route 14-- giving easy access to all the Northeast Kingdom has to offer.
The Wells Farmstead is truly a four-season paradise. Spring brings maple syrup from the sugar house just out back, along with apple blossoms and lilac festivals. In summertime, there are nearby lakes for recreation, sculling in Craftsbury, trails for hiking, farmer's markets in nearby villages and hunting for antiques. The fall is ripe with gorgeous colors, apples and wood smoke during crisp evenings. In winter, the Craftsbury Nordic Center offers renowned cross country trails, while downhill skiers will find Stowe, Smuggler's Notch, Jay Peak, Burke, Sugarbush or Mad River Glen from 45 to 90 minutes from the farm!
If you are interested in food and craft brewing, you'll find Hill Farmstead Brewery, Jasper Hill Farm, Pete's Greens and Hardwick ('the town that food saved') just minutes away.
For rest, relaxation, and rejuvenation, no matter the season, come home to Wells Farmstead in Craftsbury, Vermont!

8 / 10Excellent·Dec 2024
We had a great visit overall. There was lots of room. Lots of amenities. Plenty of linens, pots and pans and other kitchen amenities. There was a wonderful welcome basket that included a pancake mix, syrup, coffee, and wine. There is a great general store nearby. It is in the middle of nowhere but it was nice to be away. The house has some things that need work but nothing you can’t work with. Great owner and property overall.

Great secluded spot, nice and roomy, very nice view from the kitchen nook table. Great place to stay to get away from your busy life and just relax. The Craftsbury General store has pizza way better than you would expect for a general store in the middle of a tiny town in Vermont.

We traveled with family to see the total solar eclipse and had beautiful weather. The farmhouse is spacious and bright and very cozy. It sits up on a ridge with beautiful views across the valley. Perfect place for a family gathering or quiet getaway.
6 / 10Average·Jan 2021
Although aspects of this house were lovely—idyllic location, proximity to skiing and general store, art work, bedroom furnishings and bedding, spaciousness of kitchen— the house was in need of repairs and updating and some aspects were disappointing. We still enjoyed our visit and might return.
