Year-Round: Amazing Sunrises, 150ft Shore, Private Boat Launch/Dock, Hot Fishing

We love Vermont, however this property wasn’t as great as the pictures show.
Unfortunately the night before our arrival, there was a storm which left the property without power or water. The owners were fantastic and did everything they could to remedy the situation and it was all set by that evening. My low rating reflects the cleanliness of the property. Inside and out there were issues. Cobwebs in every corner inside. All around indoor cleanliness was not as it should be. Broken or unusable screens on the sunporch and a lot of overgrowth on the property not allowing use of the side deck. The stairs going down to the water also had weeds growing through the stairs and around the base of the stairs. Not a clear path without overgrowth to the shore. The house was very unkept and it desperate need of upkeep. We did enjoy our stay and the owners were lovely, however expectations should be tempered for future renters.

So much fun.
Josie was amazing and checked on us. Husband worked on deck when it rained. Well stocked and great common areas in house. Best part, the outside accomodations; lots of green space, deck overlooking water and water front. Closed in porch and outdoor area were great for little humans and dogs! Going back next year! Thank you Josie!!

Relaxing stay
Great property in an ideal location. Went on our trip loaded up to ice fish but Mother Nature had other plans. Lack of safe ice made us slow down, relax, and thoroughly enjoy some down time. Kitchen was big enough and had everything we needed to cook some great meals. There was more than enough room for us to play some board games, watch TV, or catch some winks, never not having space. Looking forward to going back during the summer or fall and taking even more advantage of the space and location. Great Host too.

Great location!
This gem of a property is perfect for any time of the year and all ages! So much to do and see. Or for relaxation right on the lake. There are pontoon boats for rent right down the road. We even went to Montreal one day and toured the city! The owner was fabulous and communication was easy. You won’t be disappointed when you book here!

Great location for family vacation
This was a great spot for our family, including 2 young kids. We loved the easy lake access and enjoyed sitting out on the porch. There was plenty of space for us all. And it’s an easy drive into Swanton to pick up any forgotten essentials. Would stay again.

We enjoyed our weekend at Josie's. Unfortunately, the temperatures dropped way below 0 degrees, as we had hoped to ski and walk the dog more in the great location on the lake, but we thoroughly enjoyed the house and our family time together cozy inside. Great facilities and I would love to use the place again maybe in the summer.

Cozy and comfortable stay
We booked this property last year for our yearly vacation because of the amazing photos of the red skyline. When we got to the property, it was beautiful and our family vacation was great. We had plenty of room and everything was clean. We had a fire at the fire pit near the shore line and a beautiful moon shined on the water. My 6 year old grandson loved the beach down the road, we swam most of the week. Our host, Josie was amazing person, when I needed something, she was there for us. I can’t thank her enough for all she did for us. Thanks again, The Cardamone family & The Leonard Family

Beautiful lake home
I grew up Having summers on like Champlain. I wanted to take my grown children To experience this. This property had enough room for all of us. There was a beautiful view of the lake. The children had fun with the kayaks There was spacious room for us to have meals together. We brought my mother who is 94 and Josie helped us to make it Comfortable for her. She even provided temporary ramps so my mother would not have to do the stairs. She also moved a bed So she could be comfortable on the main floor.. She was so sweet and accommodating and always accessible. There were many amenities me amenities and most things were provided. We just need to bring ourselves and the food here. Thank you Josie for a wonderful stay.
