About Property
Escape to a private corner of the Vermont woods and discover the magic of the Pebble Tent, a cozy canvas bell tent located near Hardwick. Part of Stone City—a small woodland retreat built around rest, nature, and gathering—this glamping destination combines the romance of sleeping under canvas with the comforts of a thoughtfully designed retreat. It is a place where time slows, nature leads, and guests can feel grounded, inspired, and gently restored by the stillness of the forest.
This unique getaway is configured with 1 bedroom, 1 bed, and 1 bathroom, comfortably accommodating up to 4 guests. Inside the 16-foot diameter round canvas bell tent, you will find a heated mattress pad and plenty of warm blankets to keep you cozy, as there is no heat inside the tent.
While the tent offers the serene experience of hearing owls hoot and enjoying a sweet campfire, guests also benefit from modern conveniences. You will have full private access to the tent site and shared access to the house porch, bathroom, and mudroom, as well as the outdoor sauna, tub, and shower area.
Key features of your stay include:
- Tent-side outdoor fire pit
- Wood-fired sauna overlooking the stream (reservation required, no additional cost)
- Peaceful deck tucked into the forest
- Access to a shared house porch, bathroom, and mudroom
- Cooler provided at the tent site and mini fridge on the house porch for food storage
Located in the heart of northern Vermont, you are only three miles from the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail. The surrounding area is filled with beautiful natural spaces and a variety of great food and drink options, making it an easy place to reconnect and enjoy Vermont at a different pace.

There are some things you must agree to by staying in the treehouse:
- Please include all people and dogs in your reservation
- Quiet hours are from 10pm - 8am.
- Do not disturb the plants and wildlife.
- No smoking or vaping inside the tent. Also, no "real" flame candles.
Some other things to understand:
-
There are insects, spiders, and wildlife around.
-
This area of Vermont (the Northeast Kingdom) has snow all winter, and sometimes mud, especially in the spring. The treehouse is located on a dirt/gravel road that can sometimes be challenging if it's muddy or even snowy or icy. We can get a lot of snow sometimes and you could possibly get stuck on your way here or in the driveway. I do my best to keep the driveway clean and sanded, but it's not always possible all of the time. We live in a rural area and services are not always immediately available.
-
All of that being said, most of the time there are no issues but if you have access to a 4WD vehicle, ideally with higher clearance and snow tires, that is the best-case scenario.
-
Keep an eye on the weather and plan ahead: the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont is probably not like where you're from and being prepared for weather and challenging driving conditions is absolutely the best policy.
-There is a primitive composting bucket toilet, with regular bathroom access (toilet, sink, washer, dryer, shower) in the main house, which is about 200 feet away.
-
There is limited water.
-
Wifi is not (barely?) available at the tent, but it is at the house. There is a phone (landline) at the house and minimal/intermittent cell reception. Wi-Fi at the house is turned off between 10pm and 8am.
-
I require that any dogs are friendly, you clean up after them, they don't damage the space and its contents. Additionally, there is a dog blanket for covering the couch underneath the couch - please use if the dog will go on the couch. There is a cat living at the house so please keep your dog on a leash.
- Before checkout
Make sure the dishes are washed and everything is tidy and put away.
Please send us a message when you leave!
