We came to Shoreham as a group of teammates for a trip that had very little to do with vacationing. We wanted to surround our coach, who is facing stage-four cancer, with the calm and familiarity he loves. His family had a serene cabin in northern Wisconsin, and we hoped this home might bring back some of that feeling. At one point, he looked around and simply said, “It feels like home.” That was the best thing we could have asked for.The house made that possible. The sunroom overlooking Lake Champlain became the natural heart of our stay, with the water, mountains, and changing sunset always in view. Every room feels thoughtfully curated but never staged warm, comfortable, and easy to live in. The well-equipped kitchen, generous bedding, flexible sleeping spaces, towels, washer and dryer, and other practical touches made settling in as a group effortless. Outside, the quiet lawn, garden, meadow, private lakefront, and kayaks gave us space both to gather and to step away and breathe.The host was thoughtful, accommodating, responsive, and easy to reach throughout our stay. We felt genuinely cared for without ever feeling hovered over.This home gave us something difficult to capture in a rating, a peaceful place to be fully present with someone we care deeply about. We are incredibly grateful for the care behind it.
