Nice little house. Very quiet, even if you're right between two houses. Bed was very comfortable as we're the sofas. Nice little convenience store steps away from the house and they have a very friendly dog! Convenient to St. Albans which has a nice downtown 3and good places to eat. Hudak Farms was woth the visit and their tomatoes are delicious! Check in was super easy and unlike some other rentals, checkout was easy as well. They only asked that the garbage be put out either Thursday night or Friday morning as it gets picked up on Friday. All together we had a great trip. The only issue we had was that the internet would drop out every so often for a few minutes.

Great lakefront cottage in Swanton

We had a wonderful time enjoying the lake and Quebec at this cottage- swimming, grilling, sunsets and games on the front lawn. Cottage was updated and clean, with good wifi and properly equipped for a long stay. We hope to stay here again and highly recommend!

Amazing location

This property is a great place to stay if you're looking to hike some trails and kayak on the lake. It is a 5 minute drive from some nicely maintained trails yet still away from any cities so it's nice and quiet. Everything was very clean and we had everything we needed for lour stay. I would definitely stay here again

The location is great. Access to the lake was a major plus, and the proximity to various nature trails was huge too. The cabin has everything you need. It’s cozy, had enough room for the three of us. We spent a great week swimming, kayaking, hiking and biking. Burlington and Montreal were comfortably close too.

Cute!

Great little place to stay during a hot and muggy week - the a/c kept the place cool and I enjoyed the deck area outside.

Comfortable cottage getaway

A very comfortable cottage with beautiful sunsets on Lake Champlain. Josie is totally accommodating and responsive. A great farmers market, ice cream place and market all within a 5 minute walk or drive. We had a wonderful 2 week stay.

Enjoyed beautiful sunset view, grilling dinner, 2 firepits, kayaks for short exploring of neighboring homes along the lake, coffee on the front porch watching the horses across the street, walking along the quiet road to the Hog Island Market, friendly neighbors, visit to a fun antique shop and beautiful hiking spots nearby, and a short drive to Canada for a nice dinner out. Bonuses were pet-friendly stay (our 2 dogs had a great time) and clean, cozy lake cottage with more than enough space and everything we needed for a fun, peaceful and scenic late summer get away!

Surprisingly spacious with good separation between rooms. Loved the access to Lake Champlain and the kayak availability. Still a work in progress, but updates are appreciated: flooring, vanity, etc. Having the bunk beds in another space allowed my husband’s aching back room to stretch out.

Wonderful cottage

We so enjoyed our time right on the water very quiet. Plenty to do nearby if you want to explore. The cottage was very clean, well maintained and comfortable. Everything we needed for preparing meals, hanging outside and on the beach. Especially enjoyed our walks on the road along the lake front felt safe all vehicles were very courteous to foot traffic. Josie is an exceptional host super responsive!

Windy!

We had a great time. There was a problem with the outdoor grill, but Josie took care of it immediately by getting a new one as a replacement.
