About this property

Private WATERFRONT Cottage directly on "Quiet Water" ~ No motors!

Looking for a REALLY beautiful cottage with DIRECT WATERFRONT on 66 acres of "quiet water"? Well, stop scrolling... you just found it :)

Daniel's Pond is a hidden gem and this immaculate cottage has 119 FIVE STAR REVIEWS!!!

Our fully appointed cottage sleeps 2-6 people, with 100 feet of private shoreline, only a few steps from the door. Designed for a couple, small friend group, or family with older children (over 12 years old). It has easy one-level living with a bedroom (queen) on the main floor and two separate sleeping spaces (1 queen and 2 twin beds) upstairs in the loft. The open floor plan has sweeping views of the water and mountains at every turn, exposed wood beams, cathedral ceiling, and loads of natural light. We have a professional well for drinking water. Privacy is yours with a 12 ft tall hedge and fencing to create a natural barrier, located on a dead-end road, and the adjacent cottages more than 100 feet away. Enjoy time on the water using our canoe and rowboat. The level yard is great for lounging or lull yourself to sleep while relaxing in the hammock. Enjoy meals outside on the picnic table and grilling on the Weber gas grill.

Daniels Pond is a little slice of heaven with pristine "quiet water" (no large motors or jet skis allowed) and only 20 waterfront cottages. Soak up the peace and tranquility! Daniels Pond is well known for spectacular, romantic sunsets. This area is known as the Northeast Kingdom, named by the National Geographic Center for Sustainable Destinations as one of the most desirable places to visit in the United States. It is a nature lovers delight! Hike, kayak, swim, mountain bike & fish off the dock to your heart’s content! Great local places nearby like Parker Pie Pizza and Hill Farmstead Brewery - just a few miles away! This is a majestic place that gives you a wonderful sense of getting back to nature and enjoying the simple pleasures of life.

We will realize how precious vacation is and will do our best to make your stay spectacular! You deserve it:)

All Our Best, Kristi & Ed

Absolutely perfect relaxing lakefront house in every way! The bed was very comfortable, the relaxation areas were great, the fan really helped cool things off and the windows brought in just enough cool mountain air and the sound of the loons! The kitchen was also ideal. The location was spectacular, the views and the sunsets were not to be missed and an easy 10 minute drive into town with a good selection of restaurants and markets. This place in the summer is incredible but we are just as excited to take a look at this place in the Fall as well! These were the most incredible hosts we have ever dealt with, so accommodating, and so nice And they truly make this experience one of a kind! Run don’t walk to this unforgettable lakeside getaway!!!

Long weekend in the NEK

Our family had a wonderful time at "A Getaway Cottage". Kristi and Ed were great hosts who were attentive to every detail. They made several recommendations for day trips, the cottage was stocked with welcome items and everything was very clean and ready for our stay. Our family enjoyed our time on the water (boating and fishing), there was great pizza at The Parker Pie Company and great beer at Hill Farmstead Brewery (both within 15 minutes). We would definitely stay again when traveling to the NEK!

First, Kristi and Ed were amazing hosts, with chocolate covered strawberries and great other extra touches. Second, Daniels pond is spectacular! Loons and bald eagles right out the door of the house. One of our gavorite family vacations ever. We loved the area and the produce and cooking and puzzling. Thank you!

Perfect spot for relaxation

This lakeside cottage in the mountains of northwest Vermont is great for a relaxing escape. Located on Daniels Pond, a small picturesque lake, there is a rowboat and canoe for enjoying the water, or you can take in the view from the dock, in the beautiful back yard with a hammock, or from inside on the porch. Sunsets are spectacular. The cottage is well-appointed and comfortable, and the hosts truly go above and beyond to take care of everything for your stay. Highly recommended for a relaxing stay in the country with outdoor activities.

Serene, beautiful cottage and area.

Our host Kristy and Ed were like old friends as soon as we met. The cottage is cozy and clean, beautiful lake and countryside surrounding the cottage. It is so quiet here, you will hear loons, eagles and frogs croaking, an occasional tractor, and seldom a car. We walked for miles around the surrounding hills, consisting of old Vermont hillside farms and estates. Heaven on earth, we will return!

Labor Day Weekend

This delightful cottage on Daniel’s Pond is fresh, clean and comfortable – and magical! On one of our canoe paddles, we sat for several minutes watching a great blue heron waiting for its lunch. The sunset reflected from the pond with magnificent pink and red radiance. Our hosts Kristi and Ed were beyond welcoming.

Getaway cottage is exactly as described. The property is very private with beautiful views of the pond, which is more like a small lake. The cottage was very clean upon arrival and has everything you could need for your stay. Kristi goes above and beyond to make sure the rental process is easy and our needs were meet. This was the most accommodating property we have rented. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great rental in the NEK.

Great area. Good accommodations and setting

The property was great.. We enjoyed ourself. Ed and Kristi were fabulous hosts and were available if we needed them. Very gracious in the little touches around the house! I would absolutely Refer a friend or relative to stay here. We had a great time at the house, biking, and on the lake just boating. My kids developed a love of canoeing! We did a few hikes and a few touristy things near lake champagne as well.. The weather was perfect, It was a great week!

Daniels Pond

We were greatly pleased by this camp, owned by Kristi and Ed Bride. Beautifully located on the shore of Daniels Pond, it is very complete in every respect, including drinkable well water, heat, full views of the pond, quiet (side road), fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, Dish TV, washer and dryer, first floor master bedroom, lakeside dock, privacy from adjacent properties, etc. Access to the loft (3 beds) is by spiral staircase, and can be a bit daunting for seniors. All in all, a most delightful camp.

About the host

Hosted by Kristi & Ed Bride, Owners

Host profile image
The owners, Kristi & Ed are from VT. We have been married for over 35 years and love this calm retreat that is our 'secret' on Daniels Pond. We grew up an hour away from Glover, near Montpelier, the capital city. Kristi has been visiting the pond with her family since she was a very little girl. We like to shop at Curriers Country Store, The Wiley's Store, Pete's Greens Farm Stand, and Burtt's Apple Orchard. You might pass us on the Mt. Pisgah hiking trail, bid against us at an Albany auction, or catch us floating the sunny afternoon away on the pond. We have fun by chasing a golf ball down a local golf course, standing in line for ice cream at Pick & Shovel, and eating a Strawberry Shortcake at the Irasburg Church Fair. One of our summer favorites (July) is a day trip to Magog, Quebec (Canada-so bring your passport) where wineries, spas, and Bleu Lavande (Lavender Farm) are located. We love exploring the towns of the Northeast Kingdom (& Eastern Townships of Quebec) and all they have to offer. We love winter too, Skiing at Jay Peak, Burke Mountain, Craftsbury Outdoor Center, and show-shoeing around the pond on a snowy day followed by a glass of wine in front of the fire!

Why they chose this property

We love the beautiful and unspoiled location, the quiet sounds of the Pond and close proximity to mountains and small towns. From May to October we like to shop for vegetables, eggs and more at farm stands on the side of the road and the many local Farmers Markets. Visit country stores, small family-owned shops, county fairs, festivals & church suppers. Make time to check out the Bread & Puppet Theater Museum, Circus Smirkus, Craftsbury Chamber Players as well as the many artists that reside in the area. This is where you get outside to enjoy hiking, biking, fishing and boating on some of the most beautiful land & water anywhere. In the fall, the leaves change color and the foliage is legendary - you have to see it to believe it! From December through April, skiing/riding Jay Peak, Burke Mountain, Stowe and Craftsbury Outdoor Center. And snowshoeing, ice skating and snowmobiling are available throughout the area. Jay Peak also has a huge, amazing indoor water park that is open year-round! Each spring brings the 'Maple Sugar Season' where VT Maple Syrup 'Liquid Gold' is bottled for all to enjoy on pancakes, ice cream & more!

What makes this property unique

Daniels Pond is so beautiful and this cottage was hand built in the 1980's by Kristi's Dad. He cut down the cedar trees on the lot and used them to build the cottage-all the wood you see inside, he put up by hand! As you can see, it is waterfront and has a small sandy beachfront on the edge of the pond, perfect for wading in the water slowly or sitting on the dock and kicking your feet. In the winter, it's perfect for Snowshoeing, Ice Fishing and Cross Country Skiing on the pond. This is a magical place to relax, reconnect with nature (and each other) and get away from it all. Don't you deserve A Getaway on Daniels Pond?
