Lake Champlain Perfection

This was our third year at this property. We will be coming back. It is ideal for us to spend time with family in the area. The hosts are friendly and helpful.

Perfect In Every Way

This was exactly the relaxing cottage we needed. As we walked in we immediately noticed that it smelled fresh and clean. The owners provided everything we could imagine we might need from napkins to kayaks! It was a stress free time. We can't wait to go back.

Relax and Be Active!

This cottage vacation is both a good place to relax and at the same time there are so many active possibilities. We swam and skipped stones, watched wildlife and walked along the lake. There are 2 kayaks to use plus a little blue rowboat that children like. As well the area restaurants are varied for quick diner meals or a lovely evening out. This was our idea of a good summer break.

Nice quiet area with small bay setting. Very enjoyable if you are looking to relax. Renters very accomodating. Hard water smells sulfury, but a small price to pay for what you get. Hoping to return next year!

Inspiring Trip Down Memory Lane

My son and I enjoyed our trip immensely. The proximity and tranquility of the lake is captivating!!! We spent many hours watching and listening to the life around us on that perfect little beach! Nice seclusion. The amenities provided were bountiful, the neighbors were very quiet and respectful, easy access to 87 made travel easy. Thank you so much John and Stephanie you have outdone yourselves! Also, the water was perfect! No odor :)

Fantastic lake setting!

The location could hardly be more perfect! just across the road from the lake, the cool breezes made for pleasant relaxing on the deck as we enjoyed the beautiful views of the lake and the islands. the hosts allowed us to use two kayaks, which made it even more wonderful not having to rent our own. The kitchen provided all we needed for cooking and there is even a grill though we did not use it. We also enjoyed relaxing by the firepit on the lake (though we did not use that either). It's a simply fantastic setting and perfect for enjoying the lake. Some of the other reviews mention the odor in the water which we also noticed. The hosts provided some bottled water and we bought additional for drinking. No biggy. The only real disappointment in the property was the beds. After sleeping one night on the queen bed my back was so sore it did not recover until after I returned home, and I had to sleep the rest of the week on the floor to avoid further injury and pain. I strongly urge the owners to consider replacing all of the mattresses as the full size mattresses in the larger bedroom weren't any better.

Nice Camp

Owners were next door and very helpful in explaining. Believe them about closing the windows if you go out. We went out for an hour, and on the way back a storm out of nowhere appeared. We were very greatfiul for the heads up. Thank you for the weekend on Lake Champlain.

Wonderful experience

This s a hidden gem location in a quiet calm cove on Lake Champlain. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend to anyone looking to be on the Lake and away from the bustle The host was accommodating and helpful while also respecting our space. The cabin is quaint and outfitted for pretty much anything. They also welcomed our dog which is a big plus. The decor and furnishings might be a bit dated but functional and comfortable. We had a great time.

Great house for lounging by the lake

Nice view of the lake from the front porch/living room. The only negative was the well water. The owners have done the best they can by including a water treatment system, but there is a strong sulphur from the water.
