About
Five cabins on wooded sites at Little River State Park, in the Mount Mansfield State Forest near Waterbury Reservoir, an easy walk from the waterfront. A cozy one-room cabin furnished with bunk beds and a futon or sleeper couch (bring your own linens, blankets, pillows, and towels), a table and two chairs, an overhead light, and an electric outlet, a covered front porch, a picnic table, and a fire ring with a cooking grate. There's no kitchen or bathroom inside - cooking is done outside (bring your own cookware), and restrooms and showers are a short walk away. Fisher is wheelchair accessible; Bear, Bobcat, Marten, and Moose aren't. Bear is the only one of the five that's pet-friendly.
Fees
$60/night for Vermont residents, $85/night for non-residents, plus $8/person/night beyond the base occupancy (6 people max per site). No cleaning deposit is required for cabins. Pets allowed on a leash cost $3/pet/night, same as Vermont's campsites.
The 2026 season runs May 15 - October 17, one of the longer cabin seasons among Vermont's state park cabins, with no winter access.
