You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Sugarbush Resort Tiny House/Cabin on 3.2 Acres at the base of Mount Ellen

The Sugarbush Tiny House/Cabin is a cozy, yet comfortable, 152 SF of space saving design. You will be surprised how the Tiny House lives much larger than it's size.

The Tiny House resides on 3.2 acres of wooded forest at the base of Mount Ellen/Sugarbush. You can ski-in from Lower FIS or Snowflake and the slopes are short walk (approximately 1/2 mile) to the base parking lot/shuttle.

The Tiny House backs up to Lockwood Brook and 20+ acres of Sugarbush owned land.

The Tiny House features an American Leather Queen Size Comfort Sleeper Sofa which is considered the most comfortable sleeper sofa on the market. It is a technological marvel, easy to use, and its foam mattress guarantees a great night sleep.

The surprisingly well equipped kitchen comes with a refrigerator, one induction burner, convection oven, Keurig K-cup coffee maker and dishwasher. A full assortment of cooking utensils are provided. You will be surprised how much space you have to prepare a meal if you desire! There is also an outdoor propane BBQ and Fire Pit for grilling and smoring!

The Tiny House has a 12' Cathedral Ceiling.

Heating and Cooling is provided by a Mitsubishi Heat Pump/Split Unit. There is also Radiant Floor Heating. A 4000 Watt Micathermic High Output Wall Heater and a bathroom heater are there just in case! The Tiny House is well insulated and easily stays warm even in sub-zero temperatures!

High Speed Fiber Internet (1Gb Down/1Gb Up) and WIFI. Stream your favorite shows on the 55” Samsung Smart TV.

Entipur Water Filtration System on all sinks and shower.

A key is provided to the unheated storage shed (72SF) for Guest's to store/lock up luggage or gear.

There is a Loft (not pictured) in the Tiny House that is used for Owner Storage and is off limits to Guests.

There are clearly visible outside security cameras protecting the windows/door of the Tiny House and inside the storage shed.

Shopping and all your vacation needs are in Waitsfield/Irasville which is 4-5 miles away.

During Winter Months the Mad River Valley runs free shuttles from Mount Ellen to Lincoln Peak to Shopping in Irasville/Waitsfield and many stops in between!

Please note that a 4WD/AWD vehicle with snow tires or all season tires with good tread and rated for snow is HIGHLY recommended during and just after winter storms, until the roads have been plowed and sanded.

The Tiny House shares the property with a new home that was finished in December 2021 which is approximately 50 feet away and available for separate rental (https://www.vrbo.com/2984038?unitId=3556078).

After booking on HomeAway, the Host will send the Guest a separate confirmation and rental contract spelling out the terms of the rental. Credit card info will be requested, and only used in the case of damage to the rental during Guest’s stay.

8 - Level 2 chargers are available at no charge at the base of Mount Ellen (1/2 mike away - See Pictures).

A great little place.

Great little place for a ski get away. Minutes away from Mt. Ellen base lodge. Convenient to restaurants and Lawson's brewery and pub. Although it is tiny it is well thought out and has everything you need. Nice big TV, great bath towels and Mike was readily available and a pleasure to deal with.

The organization and completeness of this very tiny home is amazing. It was a perfect place to wake up to the beauty of a snowstorm that's quintessential VT, especially since the floorboards are heated! We had a great 2 day getaway.

Tiny but great

The place is nice and has all of the amenities you can fit into a tiny house. I wish they would open the loft so that you don’t have to pull open the couch in order to have a bed, but that is the only downside.
