Perfect Getaway Spot

We loved our stay at Andrew's property. The house was surprisingly spacious and included a large living room with seating for 10+, a kitchen full of all the cooking supplies one might need, and ample parking. The spot on the lake isn't ideal for swimming (water is shallow and full of muck/vegetation within 20 yards of the doc), but the large selection of boats still made it very easy for us to get out and enjoy the lake. Andrew was very responsive and accommodating. We stayed in the summer, but this would be a great place for the winter too, as we could see Okemo from the driveway. Highly recommend!

Magic, as always!

This house is now a part of our family summer routine, and it was magic, as always. Even with the floods, we were able to enjoy Ludlow and the surrounding area, and we found some new spots to enjoy as well. #LudlowStrong indeed; road crews were super busy fixing everything up. The house was perfect and charming - always has everything we need, and the access to the lake is our favorite part. Thank you for a wonderful, restorative stay!! See you next year!

Beautiful lakefront house in Ludlow!

My family had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home right on Lake Rescue. The house was immaculately clean, with very comfortable beds and furniture. We enjoyed the private dock for our small boat and the use of kayaks and canoes. The house is a 5-minute drive to Okemo and 40 to Killington Mountain. So much to see and do in this scenic, charming area of VT. Andrew was a terrific host and communication was top notch-- he was patient with all of our questions and made us feel very welcome. This is our 4th Ludlow summer vacation, and this home was by far our favorite!

Rescue Lake Getaway

We all agreed it was a great rental, plenty of amenities, details were accurate and a great amount of indoor space! The number of kayaks were perfect for our group so we didn't have to bring our own. If you had young children, there is no beach area and water in the cove is full of vegetation. Not an issue if you aren't swimming. Loved the upper deck for evening cocktails and the "indoor porch" space with bar stools for morning coffee. Andrew was great with communication and check in and out were super easy.

Sisters Weekend

My sisters and I loved the inside of the house. Comfortable! Large room with windows looking out at the lake. One improvement needed if warm temperatures arise- must clean window sills. No air conditioning so windows were open…

This home is lovely inside, beds are very comfy, kitchen nicely filled with what we needed, porch with Adirondack chairs is wonderful, enough watercraft for us to all be out on the water together. No AC but window fans were sufficient for us.

Beautiful lakeside sanctuary!

We couldn’t have been happier with our stay at Andrew’s Lake Rescue home. The home itself is in a beautiful natural location surrounded on all sides by tall trees, a beaver lodge, families of ducks, and a great heron our last morning there. We went out in the canoes and kayaks almost every day, swimming by the red bridge and paddling all over the lake. We enjoyed the local Okemo adventure zone which the kids loved! And we took in some nice hikes including Mount Ascutney with the amazing observation deck that hang gliders watch off of. The home itself was well appointed with excellent views through windows on all sides and a nice tidy kitchen. Laundry on site was a plus. We would return in a heartbeat.

About the host

Hosted by Andrew Light

We fell in love with this home the moment we saw it, and we think you'll love it too. It's a perfect getaway with so much to do nearby.

What makes this property unique

This is a unique and charming home. A den was added several years ago that is walled with windows, providing an open view of the lake. It's nestled into a cove with few other homes so the privacy and quiet are priceless.
