Outstanding location and beautuful views over Lake Champlain from the large upper deck. Saw 3 juvenile eagles and 2 loons. Such a treat! Well appointed kitchen with coffee pots, air fryer, and new major appliances. Large dining table. Nice gas grill on upper deck worked great. The outside space is magic.Check in and out were easy and owner very accommodating. Large new bathrooms. Bring your own shampoos and soaps. You will love Vermont and this location is centrally located and a joy to come home to.

Fabulous Lake Champlain Property

Great location with spectacular views of magnificent lake Champlain. Sunsets, Moon sets and everything you could want for an enjoyable get away. Kitchen fully stocked for cooking great meals and the views from the living room are off the charts. Can't wait to return when there is less than a foot of snow on the deck! Still made it out to the Grill and the host could not have been more accomodating. A++

Special property on the lake and Mountain View’s.

We loved everything about this stay. The location, the lake front with dock for swimming and kayaking, the views and proximity to many State parks and Burlington. Beautifully renovated with spacious rooms, well supplied and appointed kitchen, huge deck for the sunsets and room enough to relax for everyone. Everything was thought of and our host couldn’t have been more helpful. Will return!

Great quiet location

the house is situated directly on Lake Champlain in a small tucked away community of about 10 homes..it was extraordinarily peaceful, especially at night for stargazing as there was little to no ambient light..this section of the Lake is sparsely populated; even across the lake we barely made out 3 or 4 homes. The area nearby was about "peak" for leaf peeping, many hikes/walks/bike rides..we went into Burlington and Shelburne a few times, with Burlington being a neat, slightly offbeat college town with a variety of activities. The house itself is very nicely outfitted, with the exception that I would recommend updated seating in the living area and possibly on the upper deck area. We ate dinner at the house all but one of our 7 nights..although there are good eating options in nearby Vergennes and Middlebury if you dont like cooking. All in all, the place was fine ; the owner was cordial and responsive to our needs, One slight negative (certainly not the owners fault) was the number of flies we had to contend with in the house...hey, its on a lake and it was warm, so I guess that shouldnt be a surprise..but it was annoying.

Family Spring Trip

The pictures and videos are on the spot; seeing it in person is BEYOND impressive! We had four adults, three children, and one dog. The house is immaculate, clean, and dust-free. The renovations make the house one of the top five places we have ever stayed. All kitchen cooking, serving, and utensils are uniformed. The decks for coffee and views from the bedrooms make the mornings delightful. The sunsets are striking over the distant mountain range and lake. The kids' multi-bed Room was spacious enough to get away from the adults. The bedding was super comfy in every room. The checkout is at 9 a.m., which is challenging, but they say you can ask for additional time. They do not ask too much before leaving; you can strip bedding, run the dishwasher, and start a load of towels. There are plenty of paper products, trash bags, and cleaning supplies. We have a special needs dog, and entry was just a few steps. There is no “yard” for the dog, but a nice walk down to the water, friendly neighbors, and access if they love water. Don’t worry about no yard; the back decks and access to the water will make up for it!!! Suggestions: Key code for entry (Helpful for multiple guests who arrive at different times or do other things during their stay). Make the Wi-Fi password available on the info sheet, as not everyone knows to look at the router—a few games, cards, and paper/pen for game nights. And I do love a good Guest Journal!!!

A really bad vacation experience. 1/2

We arrived in late September to very warm weather; a house with torn, or no, screens; and a lot of bugs. The host blamed the torn screens on the prior guests and claimed that the property manager had forgotten to put screens into the windows where air conditioners had been the week before. For us, the reasons didn’t matter. We couldn’t get fresh air from the outside without letting bugs into the house, and we had no internal climate control in the house other than ceiling fans. Consequently, the first two nights at the home were hot and sleepless for us. We alerted the host to the issue the first day. It was remedied with air conditioners on day three. Of course, the preference would have been fixed screens, but the host could not find a source for the screens in time. More on that below. Next, the flies, spiders, and wasps. We expect there to be some bugs at a rental in a natural setting, of course. However, when we arrived at the home, there were 10-20 flies in the kitchen, a brood of wasps outside the front porch, and spiders on every curtain we moved to close. The host resolved the first issue on day 3 with fly tape, which left an off-putting collection of fly corpses swinging above our heads for the last 3 days of the trip. The host sprayed for wasps, and they did not bother us for the remainder of the trip. Spider webs were everywhere inside, which we viewed as an indication of superficial cleaning (in any event, we let the spiders stay the week). Next, the cigarette smoke. When we arrived, the house smelled strongly of smoke. We do not believe that someone smoked inside the house, but it does not matter because we found a very full ashtray with stale cigarette butts right outside an open window. If someone has been smoking on the deck with the windows open, it really doesn’t matter if the person was right outside the window or right inside the window. The smell sticks. There is also a very stale cigarette smell in the house, which I believe the host has tried to remedy with little success.

Excellent Stay! House very well appointed, especially the kitchen. Lots of pan choices, great/newer appliances. Handy laundry room w/ storage for off the kitchen. Beds newer and very comfortable. AC units in the right places within the house. While there’s limited space between the house and other homes, we were able to get out 14’ kayaks down to the lower deck, and then down to the shore. The shore is flat shale, no sand. And this part of the lake is very shallow, so while there’s no jumping off the dock, fishing is possible/feasible. Great biking around the area - both paved and gravel. Very quiet part of the lake for good SUP and kayaking. Loved this home. Owner obviously cares for this property and has instilled a lot of creature comforts. Highly recommend!

Overall nice and relaxing. Was very disappointed the dock was not available. It was one of the main reasons I chose your location. The house was beautiful. The master shower curtain kept dropping. The master shower mixer valve didn’t work properly, so it was either too hot or too cold. Not sure what we were doing wrong, but the dishwasher didn’t seem to run a full cycle without starting it a few times. The house’s furniture felt very comfortable.

Property was well equipped, clean and had the most beautiful views! Marty the owner was very available to answer questions about the property and area.

Gravel road leading to property and several other properties so need to drive slowly up the drive which is not very long so no big deal.

Fantastic week at the lake

We had such a great week and loved the house. Stayed with six adults and five kids (ages 4-11). Everyone absolutely loved the house and location. Beautiful views of the lake off the decks and easy access for swimming, kayaking, and paddle boarding. There were two kayaks at the house, and we brought our own paddle board, extra kayaks, and floats/water toys. Bedrooms were spacious with large, comfortable beds, and there was AC in every room, which helped keep the house cool and dry. Hot water in all the showers that seemed to never run out was an extra bonus. Highly recommend the house and would definitely go back!

Host profile image
My wife and I just love to travel and vacation all over the world. However, we were blessed with a son and needed to settle down. We figured if our travel was limited with the little one we should get a home that has the most vacation fun possible....so we did!This was originally our home and we developed it with TLC we hope that you will find it as warm and comfortable as we did. Oh...the home is very 'child friendly' as well.

Why they chose this property

My wife and I Love life in Vermont. We are huge fans if hiking, boating, skiing and snowmobiling. This house placed us directly in the middle of all of this.

Additionally;Burlington,Middlebury and Vergennes provide a nice mix of culture and entertainment. Fort Ticonderoga is rich in history and just across the bridge to NY. We are centrally located just minutes from cultural & entertainment cities so you may enjoy various activities with your friends and family.

What makes this property unique

This property is unique in so many ways. We can accomodate either small or large parties in total comfort. The layout of the house is conducive to allowing several different groups to gather together while each maintaining their privacy.

We have hosted a few family reunions and our guests always compliment us on the fact that no one feels crowded. With two living rooms, office area, 1600 sq feet of outside decks and a dock different age groups tend to gather at various locations throughout the property. The kids have their own living room, adults their area, BBQing on the deck and others on the dock and in the water all at the same time.

Sunsets are incredible over the Adirondacks are breathtaking. Sunrises over the Green mountains are equally as inviting.

Lake access for boats, cross country skiers, ice fisherman, snowmobilers.
