Location
Access Road Conditions: It is usually best to come in from Route 5 in West Burke village. Turn left just before Mike's gas station and head up Burke Hill. At the top of the hill, the road hooks to the right and then our road (Gaskell Hill) will be on the left. Our drive is on the left across from two mailboxes and a little kiosk with firewood and fresh eggs (available for purchase). The driveway is packed and branches off to a grassy strip on the left part way down, to the field where we have cleared the area for Boondocking. Guests can drive through and turn up the driveway to come and go. Tow Vehicle Parking Details: Plenty of room in the field

Happiest in nature Details: We are grateful every day to be living and working in the beautiful Northeast Kingdom. Our home is situated on 10 acres with views of Burke Mountain and Willoughby Gap. The sunrises and sunsets are breathtaking! We have a spring-fed pond, trails for walking, and we are near the Kingdom Trails (for those of you who are mountain bikers). There are several general stores only a mile away and a larger town is about a 10-minute drive. We would love to share our beautiful property, and area of Vermont, with you! Home Town: West Burke, VT Skills or Expertise to Share: We love to cook, kayak, explore, and create. Our favorite way to spend a summer evening is to gather with family and friends around the campfire. Lisa was born and raised in Burke and Lauren has lived in the NEK for 20 years so, between the two of us, we can help you make the most of your stay in our beautiful corner of Vermont.

a private little stop by their pond. These 2 ladies are very sweet hosts. They brought us some fresh veggies from their garden and gave us lots of recommendations for the area.

The hosts welcomed is to their beautiful property. The BDW area is a level spot next to the pond complete with picnic table and fire pit. They offered hiking and leaf peeping suggestions for the area. Thanks again.

Lauren and Lisa are wonderful hosts. Communication was perfect - complete with a detailed list of the area’s happenings for the weekend. The boondocking site is easy to get in and out of, level and quiet. The picnic table and firepit we very welcome as well. We will definitely return!
