Fall Wedding getaway

We enjoyed our stay at Tree Tops Cottage. We stayed at the North View cottage and it was great for me my wife and 11 year old. Beautiful view of the lake for the front porch and the owner was very nice. Close to Snow Farm Vineyard where the wedding was located and a beautiful scenery all around.

Great spot and stay!

We booked a three day stay at Tree Tops while visiting the Burlington area. The stay exceeded our expectations. Skip and Barbara were great hosts, providing information before we traveled and greeting us at check in. The property is well cared for and maintained with a beautiful location, great views, and water access. Our cottage was charming and comfortable. Would definitely return and plan a longer stay.

Great Fall Getaway

We came to Vermont to see Dr. Dog on their last tour. We stayed at Tree Tops Cottages (North Bay View) for a few days and it was magical. We brought our small dog with us and she also had a great time exploring along the beach and in the kayak. The cottage was perfect - lots of space for us to relax and take naps while listening to the breeze in the trees and across the lake. Really a perfect getaway! Thanks so much!

Charming Cottage in a Peaceful Setting

Spending a week in our Tree Tops Resort cottage was just what we needed after a year of COVID confinement. South Hero, VT is one of our favorite places to vacation. Happy to add Tree Tops to our list of favorite accommodations! We'll be back.

Great location and terrific hosts

We stayed for 4 nights at the very end of September, so the weather was cool for swimming- but still possible. Our cabin was comfortable and well equipped- the kitchen was much better equipped than most rentals we have done in the past. Basic bathroom (stall shower), which was fine (it’s a lakefront cottage). There’s a heater for chilly days , ceiling fans for ventilation, many windows for air and light, sunny and bright sun porch, and an easy walk to the beach. The spot was perfect for us- some water time, some boat time, some curling up with a book because it was raining... a very nice rental with friendly, helpful, outstanding hosts. Totally want to go back. Thanks, Chip & Barbara!!

Intimate, peaceful location!

My husband and I booked a trip to Vermont to see our family member run in the Burlington Marathon. The location of Tree Top is about 20 minutes from Burlington. It is perfect because you are close enough so that you can can enjoy the many activities that Burlington has to offer but far enough away to really enjoy being on Lake Champlain and in nature. The Point Cottage was rustic with stunning views. This location was perfect for us because it is dog friendly and we were able to bring our 2 year old pup with us on the family vacation. Skip was a great host. I highly recommend the Tree Top cottages if you are looking for a serene place right on Lake Champlain.

Great Stay

We had a wonderful short stay at TreeTops. Skip and Barbara were most welcoming and the cottage met the needs of the three of us (me, my adult daughter, and my 90 year old mother) very well. Lovely views, comfortable cottage, and very close to Colchester where my older daughter lives--we will be back!

Perfect little getaway

My teenage son and I decided to have a mini-vacation together. The cottages evoke the era of a bygone time, yet are clean and have everything one would need. I love the little dining table nook. The site is very picturesque and has a perfect "beach" for skipping stones. I enjoyed the kayaks one afternoon. The proximity to Burlington and Winooski mean that dining is not an issue if you don't feel like cooking every night. Skip and Barb are very gracious hosts. We fully intend to go back!
