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!

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!

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.

Fantastic stay at Wishing Well Cabin!

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!

The most relaxing vacation ever!

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 😃

Amazing cabin on the river

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!

Amazing property

We loved every bit of this property and our stay. Convenient location to restaurants and hiking. The hosts provide the first breakfast of eggs, english muffins, and bacon and oj. Plenty of coffee making options from a Keurig, regular pot and even an espresso maker. Coffee grounds included. This is a well stocked kitchen to be able to bring food and cook. The downstairs bed was very comfortable and right next to the main bathroom. The river is directly out the backdoor and fun to wade in when the water isn’t too high. We would highly recommend this vacation spot.

Incredible getaway for a couple, with friends, or family!

Traveled from Dallas/Fort Worth via Boston for a surprise long weekend getaway for my wife's birthday based on our friends' recommendation who stayed there recently. It was even better than expected! The cabin is incredibly clean, well decorated, and stocked with everything you could think of for an awesome home away from home. There is a lot to see in the surrounding area and the drive from Boston wasn't bad at all. Our friends came with us for the weekend and the layout of the cabin worked out really well. Each couple had their own bedroom and bathroom (one upstairs and one down) and the shared spaces were great - game room and tv upstairs, large dining table, stocked and functional kitchen, and a cosy living room to watch a movie in after a long day! There is a nice deck in the back with a great view of the creek which was pretty high while we were there and made a great addition to the ambience of the place with the noise of the moving water. We would love to stay again and bring our kids next time (they will love the creek area to explore and play in)! The owners are so kind, easy to work with, and responsive. They have really thought of everything to make this an incredible place. We look forward to seeing y'all again! Book this place...you wont be disappointed!

An immaculate property inside and out that made us feel at home. We had eggs, bacon, orange juice, coffee, and more waiting for us in the fridge so we could make breakfast in the morning. The owners are beyond welcoming. Can't wait to bring the kids back in the summer and spend more time at the Wishing Well! A new family favorite for us. Can't say enough good things.
