Two of my friends and I decided to plan a fairly last minute ski trip to Jay Peak for Pres Day Weekend, and we stayed at Otter Cove. What a wonderful cottage! Much larger than I had expected, with a very open and airy layout. Views of the lake are gorgeous since it is literally steps away. We were even able to walk on the frozen lake and soak in the ice fishing tournament that was going on during our stay. Every part of setting up this rental, etc was so easy and simple. Karen makes the process very easy and straightforward. I can't wait to go back up and will recommend Otter Cove to all my friends and family.Did you find this review helpful?

We loved our week at Otter Cove. My husband and I enjoyed the quiet time, and it was everything we expected and more. Karen (owner) was great in answering any questions we had and in accommodating us. We can't add much more to the other positive reviews that describe Otter Cove. The home has the quiet rustic charm of a secluded Vermont cottage, but all the modern amenities you would need. Clean, comfortable, cozy. The morning views are stunning. The gas fireplace is cozy at night. It brought back many fond memories of my childhood and the many summers I spent on the lake. Thanks to Karen and Cliff for their hospitality. We look forward to returning to Otter Cove soon. Didn't see the Otter, but maybe next summer! :-)Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, adventure seekers, families with young children, girls getaway.

If I wished for the perfect place to spend my birthday, this would be it. The house, the view, the peace and quiet, the birds and animals. Thanks for helping my sister with this surprise! Its been a wonderful week of relaxation and fun. Our only concern was when Kip chased Rocky the racoon up the tree where he stayed all day. Thanks for making your place here at Otter Cove the perfect "healing garden"Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/2

Thank you for making this wonderful cottage available to us. It is so comfortable and inviting. We enjoyed canoeing and kayaking on the lake, BBqing, fires in the pit, relaxing on the porch, and watching all the birds (when our dogs didn't chase them away)! The farmers market on Wed was a nice surprise. We took a drive to Lake Willougby for a short hike, and another drive to Jay + Troy one day. When we are at home- driving is painful- so many cars- so much traffic + stress. But herem it's an activity we truly enjoyed. The farms and rivers and mountain views were beautiful. We had a great vacationDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/2

This was probably the best week of my life!!! We usually went snorkeling in the water. It was so awesome!!!! I loved it. Angel I thought it was the best, cutest house I've ever been in, I loved it. I love the dock and the lake and the water was warm, I LOVED IT! Thank you for the most relaxing vacation we've had in a long, long, long time. Your house was wonderful the lake was terrific and our minds and bodies appreciated the rest. Your new best friends,Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/2

We enjoyed our stay at Otter Cove. It was quiet, relaxing. The house is very nice and open. We enjoyed our boat on this enormous lake. All the restaurants we ate at were fabulous. We saw a bald eagle + a baby otter on the other side of the island. Us girls did a lot of shopping, so I hope we fit it all in the truck! And the guys did alot of fishing (caught 1 big one) + a few small ones. We all liked the house and the lake so we may be back! maybe next time we will get to go to Canada. Thanks, Who ever did your pictures with the dried flowers did a beautiful job!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/1

Today is our last full day here in what turns out to be altogether too short a week. We've loved the quiet, the lake, the great weather and of coarse this fantastic house. We've been staying in vacation rentals in Vermont the past few years, and this one is clearly the most comfortable, most private, and the best-appointed camp we've been to- the yard is adorable and we loved being able to walk right down to the water, as well as enjoy campfires nearly every night under the stars. You have just the place for weary city workers like us! Many thanks,Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/1

My mother and I had a wonderful time at Otter Cove. The time went by way to fast. We loved using the canoe- our beagle, Molly, enjoyed being paddled around like a queen on her barge. We were disappointed, in some ways that the weather was so warm, we did not have cause to use the fire pit! You have done a beautiful job with this property, it's perfectly situated with a gorgeous view of the lake. We hope to return again! Thank you!Did you find this review helpful?

Tim and I wish our vacation at Otter Cove never had to end. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and the lovely views. We hiked, biked, and kayaked till we dropped. Our dog Oreo enjoyed the hikes with us. She gives Otter Cove 4 paws up! Thanks for allowing us to bring her along. We look forward to coming back.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/1
