Full kitchen, washer/dryer, large bathroom w/ stall shower. Semi-enclosed front porch for lounging, storing gear, or al fresco dining. Starlink high-speed internet and a smart TV with streaming services. Limited access to the main Lodge building (dining room, TV den) and hot tub except for a few weekends which have been rented out to private groups. Full access to the lawn, gardens, and pond any time. Pet friendly for people and dog-friendly dogs (with a pet-cleaning fee). Custom outdoor adventure tour packages available. (Full Description) Spruce Cabin's structure and interior finishings are all hand-built from knotty Pine which allows for a traditionally rustic aesthetic. The square-milled, insulated tongue & groove log construction allows for a modern layout along with modern efficiency and cold-climate performance. The cabin is heated and cooled via two electric heat pumps (mini-splits). Stepping inside, the open floor plan gives a larger feeling of space than the tiny dimensions would suggest, with the living room being open to the kitchen and sleeping loft above. There is a double-sized convertible futon with a high quality mattress that comfortably sleeps two. A window-height table serves dual purposes as a dining table and work desk, as does the kitchen island/bar. A wood stove sits on a custom stone hearth for warmth and ambiance and a smart TV offers access to streaming entertainment. A stairwell from the living room leads to a low-ceiling sleeping loft with a Queen mattress on the floor that sleeps an adult couple or two children. Walking through the hallway from the living room, guests will find a surprisingly large bathroom with stall shower to the right, and a large walk-through closet with laundry machines on the left. Arriving at the end of the hallway you'll find the master bedroom with a King-sized bed and a full sized dresser and chest of drawers. Outside, guests will enjoy the semi-enclosed 10x10 covered porch, an open deck/patio with firepit along with full access to the 10-acre Woodshed Lodge property including the stream-fed pond and outdoor hot tub. The cabin comfortably sleeps two couples plus 1-2 children, or could accommodate up to three couples who are OK with sharing a small space and a hot water tank designed for 4. Spruce Cabin guests will always enjoy full access to the lawn, pond, and surrounding wooded property. Additionally they will often be offered limited access to main Lodge building, dining room and hottub - the exception being the few weekends which have been rented out by large private groups. Please message us in advance about specific dates vs access.

THE BUSINESS The Woodshed Lodge is a traditional bed & breakfast (licensed & inspected) and the preferred 4-season lodging establishment for those families, diehard skiers, back country adventurers, Long Trail hikers, and large groups who appreciate authentic Vermont charm and character. Modern and swank we are not, but we make up for it with authentically rustic charm plus everything you need and want for a mountain holiday including a killer breakfast, outdoor hot tub, and friendly vibes. As owner/operators we pride ourselves on cleanliness, friendly service, good food, and a quiet, laidback family vibe. Come see for yourself why we are one of the best-reviewed lodges in the Jay area. THE MAIN BUILDING Inside, you’ll feel as if you have been transported back to a time where skiing was 'the new thing' in Vermont. The 120 yr old farmhouse is authentically rustic and “quintessentially Vermont”. The vibe and general aesthetic hasn't changed all that much over the decades, but we have updated the rooms and bathrooms, and, importantly, we’ve added modern amenities such as high-speed WiFi, a smart TV, and keypad locks. The building has six rooms, three of which (the XL suites) boast 2-3 beds to sleep larger families or multiple couples. All rooms have a private ensuite bathroom except for the BIRCH room (which has a private but detached bathroom). If you have a larger family or group please call us to see which of our rooms are most appropriate for you in terms of bedding arrangements and pricing. *Please note that all of our guest rooms are located on the second floor and there is no elevator* There are communal sitting dens on each floor: the upstairs room has a book-share library, the downstairs living room has a smart TV with streaming platforms installed. All guest rooms and common areas enjoy high speed WiFi access. Our rustic dining room is a highlight for most of our guests. It’s a popular room to meet like-minded folks for some aprés drinks by the fire. A Vermont Castings wood stove sits on a river stone hearth to warm and dry people and clothing after a long day outside. The walls, floors, ceiling, and countertops are made from reclaimed wooden beams and the walls host a collection of vintage wooden hand tools found amongst the ruins of the original farmstead. A collection of rare vintage skies lines the wall, and if you brag about having skied that same pair once upon a time, you’ll be asked to prove it! THE PROPERTY The Lodge is nestled amongst 25 acres of quiet woods just off of RT 242 / Mountain Road. We have a 6 acre lawn which hosts a serene stream-fed pond full of trout, frogs, salamanders, and the occasional turtle or river otter. There is a small dock on the pond which offers a relaxing place to sit and read or to cold-soak your tired legs. Wild blackberry and raspberry bushes abound and there are two mature apple trees - all of which we utilize in various breakfast offerings. There is an organic veggie garden, an herb garden, and a large variety of wild and planted flowers and shrubs. A bubbling stream borders the yard and there are a couple of walking paths which are perfect for nature walks, bird watching, etc. On most nights you will find friendly guests (and owners!) grilling out on the patio, relaxing in the hot tub, gathering together around the smokeless fire pit, fishing in the trout pond, or helping the kids look for frogs and salamanders in the stream. If you keep your eyes peeled (and sometimes even if you don't!), you're likely to spot some of our local 'residents' including chipmunks, badgers, birds of prey, songbirds, woodpeckers, hummingbirds, moose, muskrats, foxes, skunks, beavers, deer, and black bears. THE LOCATION The Woodshed Lodge is the closest independent lodging establishment to Jay Peak Resort, which sits just 3miles/4minutes up the hill on the same road. We are two minutes from the town of Jay where you find find a grocery store, liquor store, a fantastic restaurant & bar, a deli/cafe, gas station, and a ski shop. Montgomery Center is about a 12-15 min drive over the mountain and has a charming main street with several more aprés and dining options as well as a (slightly) larger grocery store. For bigger trips, the city of Newport is about 25 minutes away, Enosburg is about a 45 min drive, Burlington about 90 minutes, and Montreal about 2 hours. Burke Mountain and Stowe Mountain are each about a 55 minute drive from us. For hikers, we are 5 minutes from both the Terminus/Journey’s End and the Long Trail crossing at Rt 242 aka ‘Jay Pass’. *Call us about shuttle pickups from the Long Trail* ADVENTURE TOURS *New for 2024!* We will be offering guided and unguided adventure tour packages for the Summer, Fall, and Winter 24/25. We have partnered with several local guide companies to offer you customized lodging+outdoor adventure bundles including fly fishing, hiking/camping, mountain biking, river paddling/tubing, and more.
