Peaceful and Relaxing
The views from the property are amazing and the area was very quiet making it easy to relax. I would not recommend the home for elderly or disabled people who do not walk well, there are alot of stairs difficult to navigate (I broke my leg 3 days prior to leaving and it was difficult). The house was clean and stocked with basic necessities. The beds were extremely comfortable, I travel alot between work and pleasure and typically don't sleep well, I slept like a baby! I took my two teenagers (14&15) with me and they had an amazing time kayaking and paddle boating on the water, after a week they weren't ready to leave. The owners even had a little fire set up down by the water for us to enjoy. They responded quickly to any requests or concerns that arrived. Overall it was a nice vacation! was rwasis very responsive

Cute lakeshore getaway
We visited in early April to see the solar eclipse. The house was cozy, cute and comfortable, the kitchen was very well equipped, the views of the lake are lovely, and the eclipse was spectacular. The property is clearly optimal for summer use, and in early spring we couldn't take advantage of all of its amenities and advantages. Would love to come back sometime in warmer weather. A couple of things to be aware of: It's a long and steep set of stairs from the parking area to the house -- definitely not for anyone with mobility issues or difficulty carrying things. The road is very quiet, but there's an active train line just on the other side, so there were occasional loud train whistles at all hours.

Lakefront Views
Beautiful views from secluded lakefront property, the house took full advantage with huge window sliding doors which was great for getting fresh air. There were a couple of stairs going down from the parking area to house and from house to beach, probably not ADA accessible so keep that in mind when booking. Families and weak swimmers should bring their own life vests as none were provided for the boats. Definitely bring groceries, closest shopping center is a 30 min drive away. Not sure if off season but the port kent ferry was not operating to burlington. Wine enthusiasts should visit vineyard nearby, it has beautiful views too.

Loved the property but access was not handicap friendly. All of us are in our 70’s and 2 of us had a hard time with the multitude of stairs. It would have been nice to know how many stairs there were before renting. Also water craft were not manageable.

The views from this home are absolutely incredible!! And the private rocky beach was so nice. We loved taking the kayaks out on the lake. The home was very clean, bright, and airy. We enjoying sipping our morning coffee in the rocking chairs on the deck. The hosts made our stay easy and we felt at home right away. We hope to be back someday! Thanks again!

Hillside house on Lake Champlain
The house was clean. It is located on a steep hillside overlooking Lake Champlain. The view was beautiful. The hillside location lead to a couple of challenges. The driveway was VERY STEEP with a hairpin turn. There were reflectors to help guide you. There was space for one car at the top of the hill to park at the roadside. There were 32 steps from the parking area to the house and a similar number from the house to the water. The house provided two sit on top kayaks for our use, along with a paddle boat which were stored at beach area. My grandchildren enjoyed using them. There was a stone beach with very clear water; remember your water shoes. The house was on a quiet, dead end road. There was a heat pump available for air conditioning or heat as needed but we had a refreshing breeze off the lake.
