You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Charming 3-bedroom lakefront house with large yard and sandy beach

Please note as of November 2024, we are personally hosting and managing our home (after several years of hosting through a property management company). Our goal is to provide the best experience for our guests through clear communications, personal service, and a well-maintained property. We have addressed the maintenance concerns noted by previous guests and improved our cleaning regimen. We look forward to hosting you on the shores of Lake Champlain!

Spend quality time with the ones you love in this home's cozy, cabin-like interior with amazing lake views. Full of rustic accents, including comfortable furnishings, new mattresses in 2023, exposed beam ceilings, and knotty pine walls, the interior provides the perfect refuge needed for relaxation at the end of an activity-filled day. Relax in front of the (electric) fireplace or stream your favorite shows on the flat screen smart TV.

Outside you’ll find a lovely patio and lawn, sweeping waterfront views, and direct access to Thayer Beach on Lake Champlain for sunbathing and swimming. Several beach chairs are available to stick in the sand. With few distractions in a peaceful rural setting, the quaint lakefront living at this home will win over your heart.

Besides the lake, you are 20 minutes from the University of Vermont and downtown Burlington with shopping, restaurants, microbreweries, waterfront, farmer’s market, and lots of activities for the whole family! You’ll be a short trip from the 584-acre Niquette Bay State Park, Ben & Jerry’s ice cream factory, or the scenic town of Stowe. There are several ski resorts within an hours drive including Stowe, Sugarbush, Smuggler’s Notch, Bolton Valley, and Cochran’s ski area.

Back inside, the kitchen is stocked with pots, pans, and plenty of other cookware, standard appliances for quick and easy meal prep, and ample seating indoors and/or outdoors for your whole group. There is a washer and dryer in the cellar (with laundry pods provided) so you can pack light. The house has WiFi throughout so you can stay connected while enjoying your stay.

Immerse yourself in the beauty of Lake Champlain and find numerous adventures steps away from this waterfront vacation home. Book it today!

We loved the location. It was so nice to be right on the beach and it is your own private beach. As a bonus there was a nice bucket of beach toys the kids really loved. The kitchen was well stocked with all the cooking supplies one would need. There are puzzles and games, mega blocks for little kids. The home is on a private road but if walking/running or bike riding you can easily access the bike path in Colchester. The house is definitely rustic, but we got that from the photos and expected it to be that way.

What a wonderful home! Can’t beat the views from the backyard and the private beach. Brittany responded quickly to messages and was so incredibly kind. She even let us check out late.We unfortunately visited during a warmer time and overlooked the fact that the house does not have air conditioning. Despite the warmth, we made it work with open windows and provided fans to circulate air.The kitchen was very well stocked with cooking utensils and pots and pans. Overall, a great stay!

Great stay in paradise

I knew I would have a great view and a comfortable place to live for my stay in the description. Everything was accurate. What I didn't know is how wonderful this place would be. Just to list a few highlights :- The house beside the beach and the beautiful backyard.- The amazing sunsets everyday.- The airport park and the Bayside beach park just half a mile away.- Most convenience stores really close and all others maximum 15 minutes away.- Almost at the end of a private road for peaceful atmosphereWith all of the above, I can say without a doubt that this place was a little paradise for a family with young children. Thanks to our host! I will recommend it for my friends and colleagues.

Lakefront cabin

The cabin is cozy and has amazing views of Lake Champlain. The beds were comfortable and it was a good place to hang out.The microwave didn't work when we arrived. The host responded right away to our message and had a new microwave installed in less than an hour. We highly recommend this property as a place that allows you to be close to Burlington but far enough away to relax and unwind.

Gorgeous views - cozy cottage

We spent the weekend celebrating our son’s graduation from Champlain College. Though the weather wasn’t the best, the location of the cottage was great - gorgeous views over the lake and just 15 minutes from downtown Burlington. We had everything we needed for a comfortable low key weekend!

Beautiful sunset, responsive host

We had a great stay! The camp is as listed on the description and was perfect for my group of 4, with two teens and two adults. The rustic charm was cozy and comfortable. The location on a private way right on the lake was perfect. It was quiet and the sunset over the lake and mountains was gorgeous. The private beach (shared with neighbor) connects with the public beach providing for a nice walk. We enjoyed the local area including the island rail trail nearby and exploring Burlington. The host Brittany was kind and quick to respond, and check in and check out were so easy. We would definitely stay here again.

Let me start by saying that the pictures do not do this lake house justice! Everything was perfect. Communication with the owners was great. The house is literally on the lake and has so much history (Including a book with the history of all area properties). We will definitely stay here again.

This vintage property is set right on Mallett's Bay and it is a beautiful location. We enjoyed it morning noon and night. The property is creatively decorated, clean and well appointed. We hosted a small family reunion with a BBQ in the backyard and enjoyed the whole day. Very well laid out and perfect for the occasion.

Vermont Brewery Tour 2024

The property was excellent, of course...on the water, facing west, very quiet, immaculate neighborhood. Bit of an old, musty smell - like an old camp. Did not bother us but it was there. Very easy directions and instructions for use of the property. Uber was easy picking up and dropping off. Towels and linens were very clean. Thank you for a great stay.
