About this property

Cozy cabin nestled on the shores of Lake Champlain

Welcome to the Champlain Chalet! Take advantage of all the lake and surrounding area has to offer from this cozy waterfront cabin with a private dock. As soon as you enter, you'll be greeted by unparalleled views from our 275' of direct lake frontage.

In addition to the usual rental season of May-October, we are now open to bookings for the winter season. Enjoy the off-season with ice fishing on the lake, snowshoeing on local trails and skiing at nearby peaks. Montreal is also a great winter day trip!

The Chalet’s ample living room features high ceilings, a charming wheel spoke chandelier and gorgeous stone fireplace. The open concept kitchen boasts brand new appliances and all the cookware needed to prepare great meals with local ingredients. There is a gas grill as well.

The master suite has a wing all its own with stone flooring and bathroom, all on the wrap around back deck that leads down to the lakeshore. Under the deck are two kayaks and a paddle board.

There is a guest room with full bed, as well as an additional full bathroom. There are two comfy couches in the living room, one of which is a queen pull-out, for additional sleep space if needed.

There are two desks, one in the living room and one in the master suite, for those who need to work while away. There's also a den featuring a large flat-screen tv and cushy seating.

Installed in 2022, there are two AC/heat pump mini split units to keep you comfortable no matter the season.

Installed in 2023, a new wood burning fireplace insert provides both warmth and ambience as we open the Chalet for winter bookings!

Dogs are welcome at the Champlain Chalet, and there are food/water bowls and pet beds for use. If bringing more than two dogs, please contact for approval.

Cabin was nice. Could use a little TLC but overall we had a good stay. Probably need to bring some towels and washcloths. Only 2 sets per bathroom. Loved the views each morning from the deck overlooking the lake. Great place for morning coffee and evening wine We would definitely stay here again

Spent 9 nights here and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! House was perfect for us and our two dogs. Quiet location, on the water, beautiful scenery...get up at least once to see the sunrise over the lake. Absolutely beautiful!Host is very responsive and easy to work with. The addition of the dock was great! My husband spent countless hours out there fishing. Caught some decent sized fish during our stay. Generally after being away, I'm looking forward to getting home to my mattress after sleeping on a rental home bed. That was not the case with this vacation. The mattress was SO comfortable!! A huge plus in my book. We cooked many meals here, the kitchen is well stocked. Great use of space with a really cool spice rack (well stocked as well). Did a lot of reading and the couches are very comfortable. Great location. We visited breweries in the area: Plattsburgh NY, Burlington VT and North and South Hero. We definitely plan to return and stay here again. Highly recommend!

Lakeside Dream!

Our stay was everything we hoped for. This lakeside experience was made memorable by a clean, spacious and well stocked chalet. The property was well maintained and the deck invited you to relax and enjoy Lake Champlain. The fruit tree grove hosted birds and small woodland creatures. We thank the host for sharing this lovely space with us.

Wonderful vacation spot!

The location and home were wonderful. The beds and furniture were comfortable, and all of the appliances were new and worked very well. It was quiet, peaceful yet still easy access to the freeway to visit Burlington. I recommend bringing some bottled water to drink (there is a slight sulfur smell in the pipes) and some birdseed to attract the birds outside!

CAUTION ROAD WORK AHEADUnfortunately, our 10 day stay was ruined by road work in the area. They are installing city water to the area and it is heading right for this property. While we were there, work was in progress on EVERY road on this part of the island. That meant noise from as early as 7:30am and as late as 6:30 pm.The worst of it was the construction staging area maybe 100-150 yards from the property (right behind the cell tower). You could hear and FEEL the trucks and heavy equipment almost non-stop. Horrible when the big trucks came to dump more gravel, sand, dirt. Beep-beep-beep all day as multiple front loaders worked to load the trucks. The smell of diesel hung in the air all day.The only road to and from the cabin was constantly being opened and closed as they brought pipes across. Most days we left to escape the noise. One day we hadto return to the property because the road was closed and we could not pass. Not sure what they'd have done for Emergency vehicles.Saturday & Sunday were quiet and peaceful. The lake beautiful. Birds chirping. The odd fishermen. Idealic. A beautiful spot to escape the city and relax. But had I known about the construction I would have stayed elsewhere. It was that bad. I have stayed on the island many times. I would return to this property once construction is completed. B4 you go ask the owner if they are still working in the area & still using the staging area around the corner.And bring a plenty of mosquito spray.

Returning guest

We loved our stay last year so much we came back this year. Loved the upgrades- fire pit and fire place insert. Property was clean and well kept. The views were beyond beautiful. We tried the recommended Kraemer and Kin pub- delightful. Definitely a 5 star place. Love that it’s pet friendly. We will be back!

We recently stayed at this beautiful chalet, perfectly situated on Lake Champlain. It was well stocked with all the basic essentials and then some. It's literally steps away from a pebble beach with the most stunning sunrises each morning. You don't even need to get out of bed to catch the view of the sun peeking over the lake. What a wonderful stay we had. The beds were very comfortable and Anna's welcome book provided plenty of places to visit (farmer's markets, state parks, breweries, restaurants etc) The kids had so much fun exploring the beach and looking for little treasures. The only thing to improve could be some attention to landscaping and overgrowth around the yard and steps leading to the water. This was by no means a deal breaker for us and in some ways added to the rustic feel. We were very comfortable there and hope to visit again and would certainly recommend this lovely stay to others. Thank you Anna for a great family getaway!

Loved It!

We had the most incredible stay at this charming cabin on the shores of Lake Champlain! From the moment we booked, the owner’s communication was outstanding—clear, prompt, and thoughtful, making the entire experience seamless. The cabin itself was cozy and beautifully appointed, with stunning views of the lake that made every morning feel like a dream. We spent hours enjoying the excellent ice fishing right outside the cabin—it's truly a haven for anglers!The town of Alburgh is absolutely delightful, with a welcoming, small-town atmosphere and plenty of local charm. Whether we were exploring the town or simply relaxing by the lake, everything exceeded our expectations. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway with great fishing and a wonderful local community, this is the place to be! Highly recommend

About the host

Hosted by Anna K.

Host profile image
After visiting Northwestern Vermont regularly for over five years, we realized we had a special connection to this area and finally decided to take the plunge and invest in a house there to call our own.

Why they chose this property

Lake Champlain is truly magical, and when we saw the Chalet, we knew it was "THE" house. The views of the lake are amazing, and its calming energy washes over you. After a year of having the house to ourselves, we've decided to open it to visitors so we can share this special place with others.

What makes this property unique

Vermont is an amazing place; and the northwest corner is no exception. It may seem remote, but that's part of its charm. Life seems to slow down around here, but you still aren't too far from civilization. It's a fantastic place to unwind and recharge!
