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 and comfortable furnishings, the space features new mattresses added in 2023 and a brand-new king mattress and washing machine in fall 2025. With exposed beam ceilings and knotty pine walls, the interior provides the perfect refuge for relaxation at the end of an activity-filled day. Unwind 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 our stay at this rustic and very cozy house. It was the perfect place to stay for our Christmas holiday. The house everything you would need for a stay there. The hosts really went beyond in providing for guests. Even though it was Winter we still enjoyed the beautiful view of the lake through the house's large windows. We highly recommend this lovely property and would love to come to stay in the warmer weather.
