About this property

Escape to Quiet Fern Lake, 15 Minutes from Middlebury

Just south of Middlebury College and Lake Dunmore, is 1 mile long Fern Lake where relaxing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing are king. We are situated at the North end of the lake with a beautiful view looking south. Come relax on the deck or sit down on the dock, fish for bass or simply float around in a tube without worrying about wake. Before long it will be time to roast marshmallows under a star lite sky. If you don't like the water, there are hiking trails, brewery, winery and spirit trails and various Vermont excursions nearby. Our 3+ bedroom cedar home is 2000+ square ft and features 2 1/2 baths. It's equipped to be a comfortable get away for 10+ guests.
