About this property

Heavenly Waterfront Retreat - Lake Memphremagog near Jay Peak and Burke Mountain

Completely unwind in this spectacular all season, recenty remodeled waterfront home on lake Memphremagog. You can play all day, hiking, biking, skiing and enjoy glorious sunsets from the dock, spacious living room or master bedroom. The sounds of lapping water will lull you to sleep.

This waterfront home is on a point of land reaching out into lake Memphremagog just below the Canadian border. It is extremely private with a beach, lawn, a large dock and deck. It borders almost 1000 acres of US and Canadian preserve with walking paths. There is also a five mile long bike path that will take you to the town of Newport, perfect for biking or walking. Or you can cross the border and the path will take you about 20 miles into Canada. The paths are also great for X-country skiing and are groomed by a local ski association. There's plenty to do in every season, great restaurants, biking, tennis, watersports (you can moor your boat right to our dock), and hiking. The house is about 40 minutes from Jay Peak or Burke Mountain. You can also explore the Quebec's quaint Eastern Townships just over the border. Just 10 minutes from our house on the Canadian side is a terrific french bakery, so don't forget your passport, as you may be making frequent border crossings!

Our guests love the fact that our house is not a turnkey rental but a beloved family home, with many recent updgrades. In 2020, we added large dining room flooded with light and lake views and just completed renovations on our state-of-the-art kitchen in May 2024. Enjoy our fully stocked pantry and cooking pans and gadgets galore to cook up a fantastic family meal.

In summer months there are plenty of ways to enjoy the lake with 2 paddle boards, 3 single kayaks and 2 two-person kayaks for available for your use.

For those who need to work during their stay, we have starlink wifi and separate office with lake views and everything you need to plug your laptop into a workstation with two monitors and a laser printer.

PLEASE NOTE THAT DURING THE SUMMER, WE ONLY RENT SUNDAY TO SUNDAY.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Nina Farber

Host profile image
We are a lawyer and law professor with four adult daughters who live in Boston and have longtime ties to the mountains and lakes of Vermont and New Hampshire. We purchased this home in 2015 after having a beautiful camp on Lake Willoughby for 8 years. We fell in love with the Northeast Kingdom and decided we wanted a year round home to enjoy all it's pleasures. We never thought we'd find any spot as glorious and peaceful as our place on Lake Willoughby, but so far we have not looked back. We hear nothing but the wind through the trees on this dead end street that abuts the Canadian border. One one side of our house is water while on the other is a 1000 acre preserve running into Canada. It is truly heaven on earth.

Why they chose this property

We love all the peaceful, flat walking paths and the easy access to great hiking, cross country and downhill skiing while still being close to all the amenities we could desire.We have also fallen in love with the great restaurants serving locally grown food. Our house on Lake Willoughby was passed down through the generations from my great grandfather and we thought we'd never leave it, but this is truly a step up and now that we have an easily accessible year round home we hope to retire in the NEK!

What makes this property unique

Our property is truly unique in feeling very remote but at the same tiime having easy access to everything you need.
