Causeway Bike Path steps away with Water access and Kayaks.

Perfectly situated steps to The World Famous Colchester Causeway Bike path and cross country skiing trail, overlooking outer Malletts Bay and only minutes to Burlington.
The options are endless, your enjoyment infinite.
The mundane details for your pragmatic side:
Relax on our Bluff, enjoy a book on our 3 season porch and revisit some almost forgotten creative thoughts.
Completely Fully furnished 2 bedroom cottage, Queen sized bed in the Large bedroom and a twin sized bed in the second bedroom. As if your plans are not enough we have a smattering of books or you can go old school with a deck of cards.
We love our cottage and our neighbors so a few guidelines are in order
Clean up it has been our experience that over the years our guest cleans up after themselves so our cleaning fee is very low.
For our Winter 30 day plus guest, snow removal and trash pick up not included

Disliked: Cleanliness
We didn't stay. Upon entering the property, we noticed a lot of dead spiders and cobwebs. Since there is no central air, we opened the windows and found mold and moss in them, and some of the window screens had holes that would allow mosquitoes. The bathroom had spiderwebs, and the shower was not very clean.

Perfect location and a comfy bed

I spent three nights here because of the proximity to the bike path and wasn’t disappointed. It’s a cute summer getaway neighborhood. The bed was comfortable, AC worked great, relaxing sun room when the weather cooled, bonus that there was a guitar.Burlington is half hour bike ride south down the path, and heading north takes you to the bike ferry to the island, which is how I spent one day.It’s an old summer cottage so once you adjust your expectations, it’s great. There was no smoke smell or anything like that like someone reviewed. Definitely recommend this place.

Nice location, smoke odor

Unique and eclectic property that the owner has clearly put a lot of thought into and located in a great place. Unfortunately, despite it being listed as non-smoking clearly past occupants had used it for this and the unit smelled, smoke odor permeated everything.

Wonderful location

This is a wonderful location near the Causeway and access to the lake while very quiet neighborhood. The property was clean and ready for use. The smaller bedroom has an awkward access to the bathroom limiting privacy. Great for a couple.

Not as advertised

Let me start by saying that this cabin is perfectly fine and a very good price. The location is very convenient to the bike trail, although the path to the lake & kayaks is pretty treacherous. They do not charge a “cleaning fee”, so I can forgive the dead bugs in all the windows and the overgrown garden. My major issues with this listing are the inaccuracies. Most importantly, this is NOT a true 2 bedroom. The second bedroom is actually a den with the only access to the only bathroom. They put glass doors (no curtain) on the entry and called it a bedroom. This meant that the “bedroom” had ZERO privacy. For some groups, this would work. It did not work for us. Other mis-advertised Amenities: Washer – actually a laundromat 7 minutes away AC – only in the primary bedroom. Deck/patio – just a fire pit in the grass

A great little cottage with everything you need for a comfortable stay

I had a great experience at this property! It was the perfect place to watch the eclipse, and made a a great home base. I was pleasantly surprised at how well stocked the kitchen was, as far as dining ware and cookware goes. We needed to call Albert to turn up the heat, but he arrived promptly and was very pleasant to interact with. We loved the decor of the place, and would love to return if we find ourselves in the neighborhood again.

Northern Lights

We had traveled to the area, in hopes of seeing the Northern Lights. We read that Mallets Bay was a top location, due to minimal light pollution. It was a dark new moon weekend, but overcast and there didn't seem to be any actual solar activity. There was also much more light pollution than we expected. That said, we enjoyed our weekend in the Burlington area and might return to this property for kayaking & summer activities. It is a -frills home, but was spotlessly clean and comfy. The heater was noisy, so we closed the bed room door. This made the bedroom cool, but the comforter and bed were very comfortable. Our only beef was that the guitar was out of tune and a picture was crooked ;-) . Enjoy!

Vers nice little place

Well equiped house in a very quiet environment. It is not the most modern house in the life but it was ok. The only negative comment we have is that we were annoyed by the droplets falling from the roof on the air conditionner outside the bedroom (please do something) all night long (it rained a little in the evening). Otherwise it was perfect.
