Turnover Crew

 

About the property:

Tanglebloom Tiny Cabin is an unplugged, glamping-style nature retreat located on Tanglebloom Flower Farm in Brookline, Vermont. Accommodations consist of: an off-grid screened sleeping cabin (10’x10’); enclosed outdoor kitchen (12’x11’ with utility room); enclosed outdoor  shower (8’x11’); outhouse; and open-air wood fired hot tub. A woodland path connects the cabin to the other amenities. One full-size bed. Maximum occupancy is 2 adults for a maximum stay of 4 nights. 

Our guests come from both near and far to rest, rejuvenate, and play in our beautiful state. Many are celebrating, and some are even on their honeymoon! Occasionally we host artists, farmers, and others for short self-directed retreats.

We take great pride in providing an experience that is nature immersive and luxurious in a way that celebrates simple pleasures (soaking in a wood-fired hot tub) while being unique (sleeping in an open-air cabin).
