Located in Newfane, Vermont, the accommodation is set on 10 partially wooded acres overlooking the Rock River, less than an hour away from the Green Mountains. The property name comes from the view guests will have of the ridge about three miles away on the opposite side of the valley. In winter, when the leaves are gone, guests can trace it for miles to the east and west.

The property is on a cul de sac, so it is private without being remote. There is little to no traffic in the area and previous guests have noted, "A passing car is an event!" Neighbors are about 150 yards to either side, through trees that hide them completely in the summer. The lot includes about three acres of mowed area for picnics, games, and just strolling.

The village of Newfane, just three miles north up Route 30, is a classic New England village, with three or four white-clapboard/black-shuttered public buildings dominating the town common. The Fall Festival there over an early weekend in October provides fun for the whole family.

The town of Brattleboro, served by Amtrak, is less than 20 minutes away and features great shopping and dining possibilities. Interstate 91 is there as well, providing fast and easy access to points north and south. Boston, Massachusetts, is around two hours away. The nearest airport is BDL (Hartford/Springfield) about 90 minutes south. Rates and nonstops may be more appealing at BOS, Logan International Airport, in Boston.

Winter guests can hit the slopes at Mount Snow or Stratton Mountain nearby, or Bromley and Okemo a bit further. Cross-Country and snowshoeing trails are available in Grafton and elsewhere. In summer, there are several swimming holes nearby—everything from river-bathing at the confluence of the West and Rock Rivers, about a mile away, to the "secret" pool called "Indian Love Song" just a bit farther. You can find a beach experience at the Townshend Dam, five miles north. Tubing, canoeing, and kayaking are all possible with rentals in Brattleboro. great hiking trails can be found nearby at Windmill Hill, along with biking trails and fishing on the West River, the Rock River, and smaller streams and ponds. For golf, guests can try the Brattleboro Country Club or the Stratton Mountain Golf Course. Kids can enjoy petting zoos at the Grafton Cheese Outlet (home of Grafton Village Cheese!) in Brattleboro and to the west at Adams Farm in Wilmington.

For the artistically inclined, there are many galleries in the area, and two notable annual music festivals: Marlboro College and the Yellow Barn Festivals.

A short and scenic drive away, check out The Vermont Country Store in the town of Weston, Vermont. It features old-fashioned candy, clothing, and goods such as warm pajamas and quality accessories. A stop here will bring glampers back in time as they munch on retro candy and explore the novelty goods. Guests shouldn't miss the scenic village of Newfane itself, with a 5-star restaurant close at hand (The Four Columns Inn) and further north, Grafton village.

Some of the best "activity," however, is inactivity. Most guests love to sit out on the second-level deck with a glass of wine, listening to the birds, watching the sun make its way across the sky. The stars at night are not to be believed. If the weather doesn't encourage the outdoors, then sit inside with a fire in the woodstove and feel all the stress of daily life fall away.
