It’s not too often you get a whole babbling brook to yourself, but when you reserve this Airbnb near Cornwall, Connecticut, you get exactly that. Built in the 1930s but recently renovated, this charming country cabin exudes rustic retreat on the outside and contemporary comfort on the inside, with some mid-century modern touches and colorful artwork to spruce things up.
Located in the relatively remote northwest corner of Connecticut, you’ll be near miles of hiking trails, kayaking, and the Mohawk Mountain Ski Area only 10 minutes away.
The entire cabin is bright and airy, with plenty of sunshine and windows to enjoy the peaceful and secluded surroundings. The kitchen’s stainless-steel appliances and pantry are at your service if you plan to do your own cooking.
Enjoy the serenity of the forest during any season from this comfortable living room, complete with Netflix and high-speed internet.
There are two bedrooms, which together comfortably accommodate four guests. Each comes with a queen-size bed and a minimalist sensibility.
The patio is a great place to enjoy a cup of coffee or home-cooked meal. You never know what critters you might see in the woods.
Behind the cabin is a small brook. Laze about on the hammock or dip your toes into the water from the creek-side deck.
Depending on the weather, you may also want to take the plunge into the creek’s swimming hole! Imagine this woodsy paradise all to yourself.
Of course, this Airbnb gets rave reviews from its guests. Previous guests highlight the surrounding scenery and the amenities nearby, including excellent restaurants, good hiking trails, and shopping. They also mention the easy communicativeness of the host. At only two hours away from New York City, the location is useful for a quick getaway for those living in the greater New York area.
