Stay Together & Apart in 2 Cabins w/ Lake & Trails

Our twin cabins, Merle and Scout, are perfect for families or friends looking to travel together but want their own safe indoor space. Each cabin sleeps up to four, with one double bed and two twins. Features include modern kitchens with live wood counters, gas stove, coffee maker and all the basic cooking equipment, living areas with gas fireplaces and a tv & full bathrooms. Linens and towels are provided. Dog friendly! Please see info about pet fee in the notes below. Sorry - no cats. Our twin cabins, Merle and Scout, sleep up to eight people and provide the perfect space for small groups that want to enjoy each other's company but also wish for a bit of privacy. Once the camp office and director's office, the Twins have been thoughtfully reimagined as cozy modern cabins with everything you need to enjoy a few days in the woods of Vermont. Merle Cabin has a separate bedroom with a double bed while Scout Cabin has an open layout; both have a sleeping loft with two twin beds. We provide clean linens and blankets for the one double bed and two twins. Each has a modern kitchen with gas stove, live wood counter with stools to hang out or eat. The kitchens are equipped with pots, pans, plates, glasses, mugs, and all the basic cooking utensils. Full bathrooms have a stall shower with great water pressure; fresh towels are provided. The cabins have a cozy living area with a gas fireplace with tv. The Twins are fully insulated and stay cool in the summer and cozy in the winter. (We've been there when it was -20F!!) Nestled in the hills of the Northeast Kingdom, Camp Wapanacki was founded as a summer camp in 1938. Established as a camp for blind children, and later run by the Girl Scouts, Camp Wapanacki is being reborn as a four-season retreat. Wapanacki is comprised of 250 acres of woodland, plus a 25-acre private lake for swimming and non-motorized boats. There are miles of trails to explore, perfect for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing in the winter, and hiking and biking in the summer. Kayaks and canoes are available for all guests. You will have access to a shared gas grill on the porch of the main clubhouse, located just across the road from your cabins. The porch has picnic tables late spring to early fall. This is also where our Wifi zone is located. The interior of the clubhouse is private and you will not have access. We have multiple fire pits on property, including the original campfire pit right by the beach. Our caretaker is often on property and is available for emergency situations. The hosts are available by text or phone during your stay. Owners are sometimes on property and will let you know if they will be there during your stay. Wapanacki feels remote but is just 10 minutes from all the conveniences in Hardwick including a grocery store, liquor store, pharmacy, local food co-op, woodfire pizza/American fare restaurant, great diner, and gas station. Camp is a great base for experiencing all Vermont has to offer. Stowe, Jay's Peak, and Smugglers Notch are all about an hour away. Hill Farmstead and Lost Nation Breweries are about a 30-minute drive. Barr Hill / Caledonia Spirits distillery is right in Hardwick. There are also multiple hiking, biking, and ATV trails minutes away. We have multiple cabins for rent at Wapanacki, so you may have the entire property to yourself, but other renters may be there too. Get in the camp spirit and say hello! In addition to Merle and Scout, we have a few other cabins on property. If you are interested in coming with friends and renting additional cabins, please let us know! NOTE: We do have a wifi "zone" on property but please be prepared to be unplugged while you are in your cabin. NOTE to those bringing DOGS: We do encourage you to bring your dog, but please note that we do have a fee of $75 per dog. We ask you to leave your pet fee in cash on departure. Sorry, we do not allow cats. WINTER: The roads to camp are plowed by the city of Hardwick and they do a great job! Our main camp road is plowed by our awesome caretaker. That said, we recommend having a 4-wheel drive vehicle when visiting in the winter months. For those who plan to snowshoe: Please stay on the snow while wearing snowshoes; do NOT attempt to walk on the stairs or porches of any building while wearing snowshoes or other shoe attachments with spikes such as “Yak Tracks”.
