Short but swell

Rien de mieux que le chalet de Robert ( qui est très prompt à répondre à toutes interrogations)sur le magnifique lac Champlain. Un levé du soleil à couper le souffle. Maison permettant à 4 familles d’avoir ses quartiers tout en offrant les espaces conviviales pour les réunions. La cuisine est bien équipée, non décidément je n’ai rien à redire de cette propriété. Sauf peut- être le manque de bois d’allumage pour le foyer. Détail anodin.

We enjoyed our stay even though we lost power on the last night there. But thankfully it was the last night!! Robert was very attentive to our needs and accessible. We are looking forward to going there again next year. The layout of the house was very useful for a large family.

Amazing week!

We had a wonderful week. The house was huge, clean and in a beautiful spot. It was everything we were looking for in a family vacation with siblings. We swam, fished, boated , played games and enjoyed fires. We loved morning coffee looking out at the lake and sitting lakeside each evening. Robert was communicative and helpful. They also left a lovely welcome basket that was so appreciated. Such a great home and a wonderful week!

Beautiful place

This house was very comfortable for our large brood of 9 people and 3 dogs. We had a lovely stay. We were so grateful for the functioning central air during the hot and muggy week we were there. The kitchen looks fairly recently updated and works fine. The property is gorgeous, located smack on the Canadian border and on beautiful Lake Champlain. We would suggest that Robert spends some TLC on the outside, seeing to rotting wood in decks, weeding, and removing broken slabs of concrete from the beach area.

Hidden Gem for a family group!!!

This house was fantastic!!! Even better than we expected. I don't think the listing emphasizes how incredible the lake views are, from several rooms in the house. One of our requirements as a big family group of 11 is a dining table that seats us all, but big loud family meals. This house has that!! The whole house has plenty of space for everyone, a huge lower level for the kids AND the most comfy couches in the house. That level is also very very cool on a hot day. We were able to rent kayaks from a local place that delivered them and picked them up. SO easy, and great to be able to go out on the boats anytime we wanted. But even on a rainy day, plenty of space for everyone to spread out and do their own thing. Also, the proximity to the Canadian border is amazing and really fun! The border patrl is LITERALLY at the top of the driveway! Took a day trip to Montreal and everyone had a great time. Bring your passports!!! The owners are wonderful! SUPER responsive for all my little questions. Even checked in just to make sure we were having fun. Really lovely people. We would definitely stay here again if we vacation in the area. Thanks Robert and Bob! (PS, the teenagers nicknamed you 'Bobert," and we expressed our communal gratitude to Bobert many times throughout the week. :-)

Hey! Robert’s house was a fun place to stay. The house is huge, decorations are really funky and cool, and the lakefront is really beautiful. It’s a cool part of the lake and good for boating. Plenty of space to comfortably sleep 12. We had a blast and it’s a great value. Would book again.

Wonderful Lakeside Home

We were a group of 9 adults and 3 dogs and had more than enough space for everyone to spread out. Rob and Bob were lovely hosts and quick to help with any issues we might have had. I would warn that there are lots of little decorations around the house so it might not be the best for very young children. The yard was huge and felt very secluded and the beach was a nice small-stone beach and we spent most of our time on the back deck overlooking the yard/lake or at the beach/in the water. LOTS of fish and VT offers visitor fishing licenses so if you are so inclined, make sure you bring your gear. Montreal, Burlington, and Plattsburgh are all within day trip range. Definitely bring your passports! And check out New Dye Tye Dye shop, owned by the hosts while you are there!

Amazing Family Retreat

Three generations enjoyed a terrific week together. We had some rainy days which were perfect for game playing, cooking, and hanging out together. And then some sunny days to enjoy on the lake. We brought our own kayaks, inflatable tubes, and a paddle board which helped to add to the fun. House has everything you need and then some. Beds are super comfortable and there are essential three living rooms so everyone has a place to go to get some peace and quiet when needed. Our dog enjoyed the huge yard and we enjoyed lake views from three different locations in the house as well as from the deck. Robert was a superb host!

Lovely Summer Getaway

We (family, in-laws, and kids) had a fabulous time reconnecting at Robert and Bob's house! We could always reach out with questions if they arose. The check-in process was very easy and we appreciated the welcome gifts. We loved the privacy and peacefulness the house provided. Despite some iffy weather, we had a blast. If we needed to stay indoors, we enjoyed spreading out and playing games, napping, or just reading in one of the many areas there were to chill. The location on the lake is beautiful and just truly a serene place to take in nature and unplug. We hope to return in the future!

Best Thanksgiving ever!

Everything about this property was perfect, for our family to gather, to celebrate Thanksgiving. Plenty of bedrooms, comfortable beds, ample linens, a perfectly clean house, and a fully stocked Kitchen all were just a part, of “everything we needed”. We loved the fireplace, the huge table for dining and playing games, the waterfront to watch the beautiful sunrise, and the geese coming and going. We even had a Bald Eagle sighting, and a few loons coming by, to visit briefly. Robert and Bob were quick to respond with answers, to a couple of quick questions, and they made check in and check out easier than ever. We will definitely stay again!
