Lakefront Feriehus på Lake Elmore

My husband and I operated Betsy's Bed & Breakfast in Montpelier, Vermont, for 28 years, so we are very familiar with hosting guests. We enjoy it. We designed this home to be our forever retirement home. With that in mind, we designed the first floor to fit our needs in case we became unable to climb stairs. There is one step up to enter the home, from either the garage or the front door. The first floor has the kitchen, living room, dining room, a bathroom and a guest room with a queen size bed, so it is perfect for guests with mobility challenges. As we aged, we decided to spend most of the year in Florida. We return to this home from mid-April to mid-September, but make it available for rental the rest of the year.

We have owned this property for over thirty years. When we bought it, it had an uninsulated, tiny "camp." Over the years we bought adjacent properties , tore down the cabin, and built a year-round, beautiful home. The home is waterfront on Lake Elmore, the "beauty spot" of Vermont. The stunning views from the house are of the small, tranquil lake and Elmore Mountain. Loons call out to you, There is a state park on the north end of the lake which has a sandy beach and watercraft rentals. Trails from the park lead up the mountain to a fire tower with spectacular views of the area.

This is a beautiful, comfortable home on a very sweet, peaceful lake. We are thirty miles from the capital city of Montpelier and about the same distance from Stowe. Skiers love it because the rentals in Elmore are much cheaper than the rentals in Stowe. We are about ten minutes from Morrisville, a small town with several excellent grocery stores and a few very good restaurants.
