"Perched on Walker Pond, this treehouse feels like something Thoreau would dream of: nearly every window frames an autumnal rainbow of trees, tree trunks pierce the ceilings and floors, and there’s a custom-made wood-bounded hot tub; guests can also explore the 40 acres of surrounding forest and wetland by canoe." - Alex Erdekian, Jessica Sulima
"Located in central Vermont, this three-bedroom Airbnb has log cabin ambience in spades. Even though the home was recently renovated, the hosts kept all of the rustic charm, like the exposed beam ceilings, original log walls, and cozy fireplace. You'll find two of the bedrooms, each with a set of twin beds, in the roof's eaves, while the large master with its wood-paneled ceiling is on the lower level. There's plenty of room to spread out inside, with a living room, two dining areas, a downstairs entertainment room, and well-stocked kitchen, but in the summer and fall, we're heading out to enjoy the large porch, private trout pond, and fire pit. (If you plan a stay in the winter, you'll be able to tromp around the nearby trails and surrounding property thanks to provided snowshoes.) Book now: From $500 per night, airbnb.com" - Meredith Carey
