Breakfast bar seating for three, and a beautiful wet-bar/island that seats two, make preparing meals fun. Coffee lovers will enjoy the 12 cup drip coffee pot.
There is a dining area with seating for up to eight guests to enjoy those home cooked meals.
There are a total of two bedrooms to accommodate guests during your stay, for easy planning here are the bedroom layouts:
-The first level of the house features the master bedroom with a queen size bed and infant pack n’ play.
-On the second level you will find a bedroom with two queen beds.

There are two full bathrooms. The master bath ensuite on the first floor has a shower/tub with sliding door. The upstairs bathroom is a standing shower and a new vanity.
Continue to enjoy the fresh mountain air outside as the log cabin sits on 13 acres of verdant forest biodiversity. Guests can enjoy a large open grass lawn (perfect for frisbee, touch-football, picnicking or even small weddings), at night, the sky dazzles with stars, and the grounds twinkle with fireflies. During warm months, the lawn is framed by a goldenrod field that fills with butterflies. A short path connects the lawn to a small pond that is fed by a babbling brook and surrounded by tall hemlock, oak, birch, and beech trees. The brook connects to a second small pond, also on the property. Perfect for meditating, yoga sun salutations, or simply taking in the forest sounds of croaking bullfrogs, rushing water, and wind rustling through tall trees. The ponds are filled with wildlife: salamanders, frogs, minnows, tadpoles. It's even possible to ice skate (at your own risk) in winter. There is also a magical treehouse (for young visitors only). It's possible to never leave the 13 acre property, but the home is also part of Becket Woods, a community that includes access to a swimming pond with sandy beach, playground, picnic gazebo, clay and hard tennis courts, basketball court, and five miles of trails for hiking, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing.
