Lakefront serenity

This house is perfect for 2-4 folks. It is lakefront with lots of birds and waterfowl. The road is perfect for strolling, the state park is nearby, the neighbors are friendly. We enjoyed touring Alburgh and Isle La Motte. Michele was a great host!

nice place for a getaway

just a nice place to stay by the water. good location, just a short drive to various restaurants and other attractions in that part of Champlain. House does lack privacy somewhat, as it's in the middle of a group of other homes on that road as well. Road has surprising amount traffic on it considering where it is, so I wouldn't let your dog loose.

Ice fishing weekend

Frosty MLK ice fishing weekend. Property was a great home base for our fishing exploits. It is great to have a fully functional kitchen to prep meals after long cold days on the ice. Would definitely stay here again if back up in the area. Michelle was great to deal with.

Alburgh lake view home

House was in a good location just across the street from water. It was well-equipped and quite spacious. Beds were comfortable. Host was easy to communicate with and check-in was easy. It was advertised as “dog friendly” and it was clear other dogs had preceded our stay as dog hair was everywhere — even in the washing machine. Our only other complaints, other than flying dog hair (we are not used to shedding as our little 10 lb pup does not shed), were the spotty internet service, poor cell phone service, and low water pressure that caused problems using the washing machine. All in all, this was a reasonably nice rental place for the area. It’s size and location make up for its shortcomings.

Response from VrboOwner on 17 Nov 2023
Thank you for your thoughtful review and for bringing the dog hair issue to my attention. I will ensure that the property is thoroughly cleaned and free from any traces of dog hair after each turnover. Unlike other owners or hotels, I believe in inclusivity and do not charge extra for dogs. There are no size restrictions, and I welcome all breeds, recognizing that shedding and hair length can vary. There are common challenges with internet and cell service in Vermont, particularly in resort and rural areas. It's a widespread issue, and our community is exploring potential solutions and improvements. Happy Thanksgiving!

Absolute gem of a vacation home

This place is adorable! The location is scenic and lovely, and the house is well-appointed and delightful. We enjoyed having the TV for nighttime but spent most of the time outside enjoying the lake view. We were there for the eclipse, and I had the absolute best viewing of the eclipse of anyone I know. No crowds, just us and the lake. My dog thought this was the best vacation of his life. He swam at every opportunity regardless of temperature. This is clearly a beloved vacation home that the owners spend time in themselves, so the kitchen was well prepared enough to be able to cook most meals and not have to venture out much, and the house has a real home feeling. Much better than all the soulless rentals out there. If you’re looking for a nice quiet getaway, and especially if you want to bring your dog, I can’t think of a better place to do it! We hope to return!

Ok stay

The owner was very communicative. Pictures were a bit misleading. Looked like there was a small play area in pics. There was none. Would not recommend bringing young children. Lots of rocks down to water and really no beach area. House was very clean but furnishings very dated, could use an update. Did not realize there would be so many of owner's things in closets, cupboards and refrigerator. Two sets of stairs (kind of rickety) leading to house so older people or anyone with mobility issues would find challenging.

Dear Patricia. I am very sorry you had to go back home prior to the full completion of your stay, due to the bad health of your 13-year-old dog. I understand your frustration, however, this is not a reason to reimburse the amount paid for the unused days, especially since in your own words ‘her health recently has been declining’. Unfortunately, despite numerous attempts, I was unable to help you to tune in, on my Roku TV, to your favorite channel WCAX for the local news. I understand it is not always easy to navigate new technologies. I hope you were able to drive back safely to your home in Vermont with the map and my detailed instructions for the appropriate state road and highway. Thanks for mentioning in your last email: ‘YOUR PLACE WAS VERY CLEAN AND COMFORTABLE’!
