After driving the shoreline road of Lake Willoughby, the road to access the land is a steady climb to ..... feet. Stop and look behind you and you'll see the Western view of successive mountain ridges and Lake Willoughby. The immediate land and surround has been in the Cole family for generations and we are honored to be the next stewards of this parcel. We look forward to sharing the beauty of this area and this space with you. Learn more about this land: The cabin is located 3 miles and 1,700 feet up from Lake Willoughby in the Town of Westmore. We invite you to stay! Looking behind as you drive up Coles Mountain to the land, you see views of Lake Willoughby and rolling mountains heading out to the horizon in the west. Majestic. Once you have traveled 3 miles and gone up 1,700 feet from Lake Willoughby, you cross a land bridge over a stream and enter a private clearing ringed with tress and forest. This is an old orchard in the forest with an off-grid cabin. Cozy surroundings. Though you may hear others on surrounding properties, you don't see them. Cross another stream and the land goes back another 10 acres into deep forest. Magical. Outdoor activities throughout the area include hiking, skiing and mountain biking at Burke Mountain, Kingdom Trails Association, Craftsbury Outdoor Center and local Vermont State Parks, as well as kayaking, swimming, and fishing on Lake Willoughby. Watch the sunset at Sentinel Rock. As noted on the Vermont Department of Health's website, "Vermont has reached Step 4 of the Vermont Forward Plan.
