Attention outdoor enthusiasts! Welcome to your own private recreational paradise. Tucked away at the very end of a town-maintained gravel road, this cozy camp is set on 32.6 surveyed acres of pristine Vermont wilderness. Fully equipped with a woodstove, a solar system (installed by Grassroots Solar, Inc. of Dorset, VT), and a recently updated ¾ bath, the camp offers comfort and functionality in a truly serene setting. The charming loft features custom ironwork railings and provides ample sleeping space, while the first-floor bedroom offers added privacy. Whether your passions include hunting, hiking, mountain biking, or simply unplugging and enjoying nature, this property delivers. The location is ideal—just a few miles from beautiful Lake St. Catherine, minutes from a Slate Valley Mountain Biking trailhead, and under an hour to Manchester Center and several ski areas. Relax on the covered porch as you listen to the gentle stream below and take in the abundant wildlife that surrounds you. Please note that after being vacant for several years, the camp will require some maintenance. There is evidence that critters have chewed piping beneath the structure, and repairs will be necessary. This is a truly one-of-a-kind Vermont retreat. Property is being sold “as is.” Schedule your showing today and experience it for yourself.
