The Camp at Barney Point…the perfect place for family vacations or multi-generational retreats! Outstanding 2,700 sf Lakefront “Adirondack Great Camp”, available seasonally (renovations are under consideration to offer this cottage as a winter retreat as well). This cottage is an architectural “wow”, reflecting a careful, modern renovation while maintaining its historic, 1920s character. Located at Barney Point on Colchester Point Road, Colchester, VT--on the broad portion of Lake Champlain, with spectacular views to south and west; lake breezes; and picture-perfect sunsets.

The property offers almost an acre of manicured lawns, stone walkways, and great landscaping, with several hundred feet of cliff-top lake frontage and panoramic views. Kids and adults alike will enjoy the huge, green lawn for croquet, volleyball, ping pong, softball, tag or other games. Sit, read, and relax. Lay in a hammock. What you’ll notice about the Camp at Barney Point is that there is tons of space for family time, inside and out of doors. Walk the meandering path through the woods to the association beach—great for bonfires and gatherings. The lake access here offers clean, shallow water and a sandy bottom—great for kids. Use the Camp’s rowboat and 2 kayaks…paddling along the shore offers an idyllic way to spend an afternoon or evening. Or, walk, run or bike the Island Line Trail, a 5-mile scenic wonder, offering access points adjacent to the Camp. This continues north to South Hero, VT when the bike ferry is running, or south to Burlington, another 7.5 miles of scenic beauty! Wonderful Airport Park is just down the road, offering tennis, basketball and running trails.

The cottage sleeps 14 –a king bed in the 2nd floor master; 2 twins in the 2nd floor BR2; 4 twins and a double in the 2nd floor BR3; a double in the 1st floor den; and 2 twins in the main living area that by day form a seating/lounging area for games and reading. The cottage offers an amazing kitchen with dishwasher, pantry, gas stove, and utensils/dishes for the largest of gatherings. A full W&D is offered on the 2nd floor. The cottage has 2 bathrooms, each with shower. The master bedroom’s bathroom also offers a vintage soaking tub overlooking the lake.

The main floor gathering areas offer ample seating for dining, conversation and games. Views abound from every room…with the screened and outdoor porches and decks offering an extension of the gatherings inside. Ample off-road parking is offered, as is a great deal of privacy. Warn up in front of the wood stove, framed by the Camp’s original brick chimney, on those cooler evenings. You and your family will return again and again to the Camp at Barney Point.
