About this property

Meme's High Mountain Lake House

Welcome to our high mountain lakeside getaway. Known fondly as Meme's lake house, let us show you why Vermont is the destination for every season.

Meme's lake house boast 100 feet of private, crystal clear lake frontage perfect for canoeing and kayaking (we provide both for your use with life vests!) or simply gazing out at while enjoying that morning cup of joe. A large fire pit can be found outback, and our private community beach is a short stroll down the road where a sandy beach welcomes summer fun! Ask about renting our golf cart too!

Back home, a wonderful kitchen awaits the chef of the family with an open dining and living room area perfect for entertaining or a quiet evening alone. Cozy up to the classic Vermont wood burning stove while enjoying your favorite book and sinking into the deep leather couch, so comfy! Upstairs, you will find three well appointed and comfortable bedrooms; one with a king bed, one with a queen bed, and one with two double beds. Window AC units for those rare hot summer nights. There is also a sitting area offering expansive views of the beautiful sunsetting sky.

For our winter guests, Woodford is located directly on the VAST trail system which offers some of the finest snowmobiling conditions in the state. Ample parking for vehicles and trailers. Ice fishing, snow shoeing, cross country skiing and ice skating are right outside the door of Meme's lake house. The quaint Town of Wilmington which offers exquisite dining and boutique shopping is a short 15 minute drive away. Mount Snow and Stratton are also easily within reach.

At Meme's lake house, you can experience the best that each season in Vermont has to offer. Book your stay today!

Great spot for relaxing and exploring!

We loved this spot! From chilling by the water in the great yard and deck to explore nearby hiking spots, we couldn’t have asked for more! Jessica was very communicative as well.

Amazing!

We had a lovely stay!! Access to the water is easy and a luxury! There are plenty of rooms and a good sized yard. We traveled with dogs and had no issues. The indoor space is nice, but the deck and little screened porch area is where we spent most of our time! Lovely and highly recommend!

Really wonderful

How was better than advertised. Really appreciated the owners leaving the essentials, including the spices and condiments. Linens, too. They really take pride in the place. Highly recommend.

Nice and cozy place

The property is lovely, the view is excellent, and the house has everything you might need and much more! The pond is small and very shallow. We could not swim right in front of the house due to the muddy bottom and weeds, but the beach was very close. Our two-year-old granddaughter enjoyed it very much. It's an ideal place for a family with young children.

Meme's Lake House

What a great spot - the owners were very true to the listing and the place had everything you would need plus plenty you would not expect to have. To be honest, we brought too much stuff as the hosts had everything from firestarters, super strong wifi, a bluetooth speaker, to a fully stocked kitchen, even spices and condiments. Gas and charcoal grill, small lawn area for yard games, waterfront pirepit, plenty of outdoor seating, use of kayaks and canoe as well as easy access to the small community beach. Even beach toys, lifejackets, etc. Quick and easy access to both Wilmington and Bennington but yet in it's own little oasis. Nothing really to quibble about - sure, a dock would be awesome and a update to the screened-in porch is needed, but again nothing to complain about. I am sure those are both on the hosts list of projects. Such a cute place! One point which is out of anyone's control is that as the map shows, this is opposite the lake from Route 9 the main road - so there is highway noise when trucks and motorcycles are going past. Thank you again for having this gem available for our family to enjoy a long weekend before the school season arrives.

A Perfect Stay

We loved Meme's lake house! The house was exactly as described, and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the fire pit, the kayaks, and the beach just down the road a bit. We hiked many trails nearby, and loved the proximity to Bennington and Wilmington. Jess, the owner, was wonderful! I recommend this property!

This is a great place to stay winter or summer

We were very happy with the house. It had plenty of room and the view of the lake is beautiful. We stayed in the winter, the roads were plowed and the house was warm. Only thing I’d say Is that a hot tub would be great and make sure to bring your own k cups for coffee. I was expecting a coffee pot. I may have missed it if the description said there was a kureig machine. I’m sure staying here is the summer would be even better since the lake is right out the back door.

About the host

Hosted by Jessica Matthews

Host profile image

We purchased the lake house in the summer of 2019 to fulfill my mother's dream of living on the lake. We are blessed to be able to enjoy the property and share it with our guests.

Why they chose this property

Spacious and on a very private lot, this is one of the premier lake houses in the region. The subtle attention to detail that the previous owners crafted can be found throughout, and is finely complimented by premium furnishings and comfortable bedding. We are proud to continue a family owned and operated Vermont escape.

What makes this property unique

Cruise in style in our golf cart!

An Old Town canoe and kayaks are provided for your enjoyment.
