A night at the exquisite "Sancuary on Blueberry Lake" (Monday-Thursday, non-holidays only). From the website:
"This brand new beautiful, architecturally designed home on Blueberry Lake borders the Green Mountain National Forest.

This special retreat is decorated in subtle tones and warm accents. Every room reflects attention to detail – both simple and exquisite, and each room’s view gives one the impression of being in a tree house.
As one enters the house, there is a library with a candlelit fireplace and a window-bed, with wall-to-wall books, including an extensive philosophy and cookbook collection. The Great Room boasts a fireplace, picture window-bed, and an open kitchen concept with center island, and fully equipped for cooking and entertaining (owner is a professional chef).
