3 Bedroom Cottage in West Arlington, Arlington

WELCOME TO THE HISTORIC SAMUEL BENEDICT HOMESTEAD
Located on the southern bank of the picturesque Battenkill River in West Arlington, Vermont, the historic 3 bedroom cottage, built in 1828, offers the perfect setting for a genuine Vermont getaway. It sleeps up to 5 guests, has a full kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and more than its share of rustic charm. Skiing and shopping are nearby, and there is fly fishing, kayaking, swimming and tubing just steps away. Additional amenities include an outdoor patio, modest WiFi, Bluetooth audio, Smart TV, record player, books, games, and more.
The cottage has sat at the edge of the Battenkill since the John Quincy Adams administration. Originally part of a much larger family-owned parcel, Samuel Benedict was its builder and original owner. He’s buried just 3 miles away in the St. James Episcopal Cemetery.
While many guests enjoy jumping into the river's swimming hole from the single lane bridge, others choose to join local artists to paint landscapes from it. In fact, American artist Ogden Pleissner (1905-1983), in addition to painting western landscapes, images of the New England maritimes, and serving as a WWII war correspondent in the Aleutian Islands, also painted the river scene from the bridge directly in front of the house in 1978. The piece is entitled “The Battenkill at Benedict’s Crossing.”
This rustic property has the genuine Vermont flavor to satisfy the solitary purist, but enough creature comforts to make microwave popcorn and stream Netflix (most of the time). We hope to be able to share it with you soon.

Summary: Our stay at the 1828 Cottage was delightful. It had everything we needed for a comfortable get away. The kitchen was very well stocked and we made some memorably delicious dinners and breakfasts. The bed in the master bedroom was ultra comfortable and we slept like babies. A hot shower was always available to warm and soothe our bones after wintry hikes. And the fireplace—very well stocked with wood—provided warmth and a cozy ambiance. But behind all of this was our host Sarah whose gracious spirit surrounded everything. The charming eclectic decor suited the cottage perfectly and Sarah was always on hand to answer any questions and to make suggestions for our stay. So we are glad we got to know Sarah and the cottage and felt well cared for in a home that is so lovingly preserved.

Summary: We had a great stay at this home. We built a fire while relaxing in the living room. The kitchen has all you’d need. We cooked dinner and also went out to nearby Arlington restaurants as well as Manchester. Great location by ski mountains as well which allowed us to get some days in as well.

Summary: The cottage was lovely with a fireplace and well stocked kitchen. The bathrooms were very clean with plenty of towels. There was a nice dining room and a living room with plenty of comfortable places to sit to read or watch TV. It was on a quiet street along side the Battenkill River. I would definitely stay there again.

Summary: I stayed here with my daughter and mother. Everyone had a lovely time - the house is perfectly situated with a gorgeous view from every corner. We had everything we could possibly need, playing games, prepping dinner, the cozy fireplace and walks along the river. Sarah and Brett are wonderful hosts, extremely responsive. Can’t wait to come back and spend more time exploring the area. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
