Wishing Well Cabin
Great family space with open areas, 2 bathrooms and 3 bedrooms. Sleeps 8 plus a pull out couch for flexibility. Large back porch overlooking the West River Brook. Close to ski areas and Jamaica State Park. Country store a half mile away with groceries, wine, prepared foods, deli and some gifts. Manchester with its shops and restaurants within 30 minutes. Weston with the Vermont Country store and other shops and restaurants nearby as well. Come enjoy our country setting on a dirt, town maintained, dead end road right off VT Route 30. The property is next to beautiful meadows and by the river. Relax by the fire pit or dine on the porch overlooking the river. Ski, hunt or hike or see sites like Townshend State Park, Hamilton Falls and the Ball Mountain Dam. Come and relax with your family in our new build cabin close to skiing and Jamaica State Park on the West River Brook. Many restaurants and shopping near by. Thirty minutes to Manchester Center. Tesla power wall installed so power outages never an issue!

David and Carol are excellent hosts! Communication with them was thoughtful and prompt. The breakfast items they left for us were an added bonus!The house was clean, comfortable, and well stocked. We loved the peaceful, riverside location and close proximity to the village and Jamaica State Park. We enjoyed being close to Stratton yet away from the crowds. The new restaurant in town, River & Rye, is excellent!
Amazing property with all the conveniences of home. Peaceful river-front property with large deck.
Plenty of space for family and conveniently located.
I can't say enough good things about our stay in VT. I wish we had been able to stay longer. The location was wonderful as was the home and the property it was located on. Look no further, book your stay at the Wishing Well Cabin!
Great VT cabin. Great location. Was a fantastic stay at wishing well cabin, new condition, cozy, warm. Very comfortable, super well equipped: washer/dryer, Keurig or drip coffee pots, first aid kit, plenty of towels, soaps. Quick and communicative hosts. Very nice unique touch with eggs, OJ, syrups, pancake mix, bacon at arrival.
We recently enjoyed our repeat stay at this beautiful house by the river and near Stratton, and it was just as exceptional as our previous stay. The location is perfect, offering serene river views and quick access to the slopes. The house is impeccably maintained, with cozy interiors and all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. Dave and Carol are incredibly accommodating, making us feel right at home. We can't wait for our next visit!
By far, the cleanest vrbo I've ever rented. This place has everything you need. Right on the river, you can tube down it or walk through a path to a swimming hole. The owners could not have been more helpful - so responsive, but also left us to enjoy our weekend. Super-easy check-in/out. Book this cabin, you will not regret it!
Just as pictured, Wishing Well Cabin is beautiful. Dave and Carol are great hosts, and have thought of everything to make guests feel comfortable. From the beds, to the linens, to the fully stocked kitchen, the house had everything we needed for a fabulous stay. This is our third time staying at Wishing Well Cabin and we will be back for sure!
Dave and Carol are wonderful, thoughtful hosts to a well stocked, supet clean and comfortably decorated home .
Off the back deck of the home is a firepit just a short distance from a calming rolling brook which kept 3 children and 5 adult rock hunters occupied for hours!
The house is also just a short distance from a small market and a farmstand with a bakery .
If you are looking for a peaceful vacation we can't say enough about the Wishing Well and its hosts!
Thank you, Dave and Carol 😃
Our stay at this VRBO was absolutely exceptional—it truly exceeded every expectation! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. The house was so immaculately stocked with every amenity we could possibly need that all we brought was our own food. Every appliance in the kitchen was top quality, making both cooking and clean-up a breeze. Sharing meals here was a highlight of our trip thanks to the thoughtful touches and organized space.The ambiance throughout the home was warm, inviting, and beautifully curated, creating a sense of comfort and relaxation at every turn. Each bed was incredibly comfortable (we all slept so well!), and the bathrooms were pure luxury—modern, spotless, and carefully appointed with all the essentials.The location itself is a slice of paradise: quiet, private, and surrounded by stunning scenery. Whether we were sipping coffee on the patio or exploring the peaceful surroundings, we were constantly in awe of how picturesque and tranquil everything was.Our hosts were fantastic—responsive, thoughtful, and easy to reach. We only needed to contact them once, and they replied immediately with exactly what we needed.What really set this place apart was the attention to fun and togetherness. The home was loaded with games, ensuring we were never short on options for laughter and friendly competition. Honestly, this is one of the best vacation rentals we’ve ever experienced. Already planning our visit!

The place is great, the owners are also very hospitable and went above and beyond for us! The property was beautiful and everything matched the listing.

What a gem of a place. Thank you to David and Carol for creating such a warm and inviting place to stay and for being such lovely hosts. It was our first time in Vermont and can't wait to return!
David and Carol, were great hosts and super accommodating. Knowing they live right next door if anything went wrong was a huge relief. Definitely recommend :)
The home and property was absolutely pristine.The access to get into the property was very simple with no problems. The kitchen was well organized with a keurig or a pot to brew, your choice. Other kitchen appliances were also available such as blender, etc. Picturesque setting we absolutely loved it here.
We had a delightful stay in the Wishing Well Cabin. The hosts had very thoughtfully furnished and cared for the property. It was very relaxing looking at the river and enjoying games. A great place to rest, relax and rejuvenate.
From the beautiful setting - a rushing river just off the rear deck - to the lovely home and hosts that offered basically everything you’d need, this was a great retreat for our family. The owners are great to work with. They have done a great job of setting up the house for guests and are available to help make sure that you have a great vacation. We will definitely stay here again!!
A lovely cabin in beautiful Jamaica Vt. Extremely well stocked, with everything needed for a great stay, even pancake mix and extra toothbrushes. Hosts are very nice and helpful, while giving you complete privacy. We would enjoy staying again but expect it’s going to be very popular and hard to book.
This property is by far the best I have ever stayed at. Perfect setting on the river, short path to a swimming hole, linens and supplies provided were over and above anything else I've experienced. The house was immaculate, comfortable and beautifully decorated. David is an excellent communicator - so many great things about this property!
The property and house is beautiful. Very clean, very beautiful and many thoughtful touches! Everything that is advertised. We are planning on coming again.
The cabin is spacious but cozy, clean and had everything we needed,
Including stuff to make a wonderful breakfast! Above and beyond.
Hosts were fantastic and communication was great. Can’t recommend highly enough. Loved the river and the fire pit.
We’ll surely be back!
