About this property

Beautifully Restored Farmhouse On Lake Champlain

Enjoy Lake Champlain and the Burlington area while staying in this beautifully restored 1920’s farmhouse. The lake front house offers breathtaking views of Lake Champlain and the Adirondack Mountains. With 225 feet of private beach front and a swim raft and boat mooring and brand new dock, this property is perfect for kayaking, sailing, and swimming, fishing, or just lounging around in the sun. LL Bean loved the property so much that they featured it in their November, 2016 winter catalog. The water access is very shallow and perfect for children and people of all ages to enter and exit. House includes a floating swim raft, boat mooring, a two person kayak, and a one person kayak and lots of other 'toys' including badminton/volleyball equipment, horseshoes, tetherball, golf clubs, baseball gloves, soccer balls, football, rugby ball and other sports equipment. We also feature a fire pit for roasting marshmallows or just relaxing in front of the fire. The porch has a ping pong/air hockey table. A pool table is located in the garage for your use.

This farmhouse features five bedrooms. The open concept living room, dining area and kitchen is well set up for family gatherings and guests of all ages! The farmhouse stretches 3 floors and houses its 5 Bedrooms on the top 2 levels of the home offering lots of privacy and space to get away from each other if you want to!

There is large deck overlooking the lake - adirondack chairs, tables and lounge chairs are available for your relaxation. Lay back in your lounge chair while watching the sunset over the Adirondack Mountains.

The first floor has a three season room with a wall of windows facing the lake and has a large dining room table where you can enjoy your meals while taking in the view. There is also a lakeside deck and patio with perennial gardens. The kitchen has been recently renovated with top quality modern appliances and soap stone counters. The living room features a working fireplace while the den has a propane stove that keeps you toasty when the weather cools. There are 3 full recently renovated bathrooms. The first floor bath is great for when the kids come in from the lake, featuring a shower and adjacent laundry room. The second floor contains 4 bedrooms and one full bath. The front bedroom has twin beds and overlooks the lake, bedroom 2 is cozy with a brass double bed, bedroom 3 has bunk beds for the kids and the 4th bedroom features a queen bed. The master suite located on the third floor features a sitting room with a day bed, a king size bed. The adjacent bath contains a claw tub as well as a separate shower room. Lake and mountain views can be seen from all bedrooms.

Please note that during the summer months, starting the the end of June, we only accept Saturday to Saturday bookings.
During your stay at this farm stay, you're just a quick walk from Lake Champlain.

Another beautiful long weekend away
A very nice Farm House on the Lake, six of us have stayed at this location many times. My only wish would be a larger TV in the living room for the evenings when the day is done.Other than that 5 Stars~ TY ~

Old Farm House, needs TLC and a thorough cleaning
Outside grounds were pretty, good views of the lake from the back porch. However, inside furnishings were beat up, wires and cords hanging about, kitchen and fridge were not clean (had to wash the coffee pot, countertops, and cookware before we used them), bathrooms had toothpaste smears and drips (and not sure what else) on countertops. Linens were thin and old. Unfortunately, it just gave us the creeps.

Farm House Relaxation
Each time we stay in this spacious, comfortable home, we enjoy it all—the lake, the games, the magnificent views, the expansive porches, the charming Grand Isle shops and food stands, and of course our time as a three generation family making memories.and being grateful.

Great house on the water!
This was our 2nd time renting this house for vacation and we have already booked for another year. We were excited to see there had been some upgrades made since last time we were there. Some new window ac’s to help keep us cool and some new furniture. The house is huge and very good for a large group. Having multiple restrooms on every level was helpful too. We loved all the games and activities that are provided; volleyball net, pool and loads of board games. It was magical being right on the water and the dock is perfect for sunning and lounging on floats. This house was also in a great location, nice and close To all of our favorite spots. The views of the lake from the house was gorgeous and we Loved all the outdoor seating!

Graduation Stay
This was a lovely property with wonderful sunset views. Owner was very responsive. The house was very spacious and comfortable. We were there too early in the season to take advantage of the water access, which we were bummed about because the weather was beautiful! Would love to stay there again in the summer!!

Great stay for a large family
I promised my kids I would give our stay at Susan's house as many stars as I could. They wanted to give it a hundred stars, but alas, 5 is the limit. We obviously had a great time. The littler people loved having so many things to play with, including air hockey, ping pong, the tetherball, and the other fun options available. The bigger people appreciated the clean and comfortable kitchen, the absolutely stunning view of the lake, and the proximity to Burlington while staying somewhere special and quieter. We would all love to come back in the summer when we can take advantage of the lake. In the meantime, we loved our stay and would recommend 100 out or 5 stars. Thank you, Susan!

Great lake house
We had a wonderful family holiday at this house. The house had lovely touches of being decorated for the holidays, and the space was great for my family. The windowed porch definitely needs heaters for the winter (which we were prepared with!), and it was an awesome addition to the space, which would have been a little squishy inside. The beds were not all the newest most comfortable beds, but they did their jobs! We would definitely come back, and we'd love to visit again in the summer and enjoy the outdoor space more! Beware, entering the 3rd floor has a very short ceiling for anyone over 5'6", but the space opens up after the staircase!

What a place!
From the gorgeous landscaping to the black shore made by nature entirely of skipping stones, this is the place for a great vacation. The big old farm house is comfy and well appointed. The huge sun room and deck overlooking the mighty lake were perfect for daydreaming, doing art, talking, dining. Eight of us. We loved it. Only drawback was that the six sleeping on second floor shared one bathroom, but there are two more baths, just not on that floor. Most days kayaking was great but when the wind is up waves form. All in all so very beautiful.

We had a wonderful time with our whole family. The house is spacious, the view is amazing, and the rocky beach is very accessible. There is plenty of outside space for outdoor games and lots of rooms for hanging out in when inside. We will look forward to coming back!

Delightful Time y the Lake
Great summer family vacation spot near Burlington and UVM. Great for a family vacation with our adult children one of whom was attending UVM summer school. Owner / manager generally receptive to issues. Kitchen was well appointed and great for cooking family meals. Bedrooms were comfortable but got hot when it got warmer. Generally a delight.

My family had a wonderful long weekend at this house on Grand Isle. It's located right on the lake and the views are fantastic. The 3 season room is one of my favorites and I have looked forward to sitting out there every day. Cannot say enough about this rental. Plenty of room, fully equipped, clean and comfortable. Have rented a few times and cannot wait for my next visit!!
