Excellent Stay

We loved our stay at this cozy place! Very clean and great location. Steps to the lake and we spent some time on the bike path with the bikes provided. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

We had a wonderful stay at your home, which we considered more than a camp! The location was perfect for us & we fully enjoyed the lake proximity & beautiful view. Everything we needed was at our fingertips. We couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you!!! We hope to return in the future.

We loved it!

The perfect camp for our getaway! We had enough room, peace and quiet, close to town, but out away from others. Thank you so much for opening your beautiful camp to us!

Just as described, we enjoyed a bit of coolness and color. Was able to get around easily. Too cold for us desert lizards to actually get in the water, but great views!

This cottage was in ideal location about midway on the Burlington Bike Path and less than a quarter mile from the trail on a quiet road. And Colchester is a much quieter area than Burlington and without the parking hassles.It was very well provisioned and very comfortable with an enclosed porch convenient for bikes, a nice sun room, well equipped kitchen, comfortable living area, an outdoor picnic table, and kayaks.We also took a couple of walks on the Lake Champlain beach just steps from the property.Both the owner and the nearby property manager were responsive and helpful.We had a wonderful time on our first trip to the Burlington area for biking and hiking. We want to return for kayaking.

About the host

Hosted by Mary

Host profile image
We have enjoyed this cottage for many years, and it's been a fun summer getaway for our children and grandkids. We are excited to share this little treasure with other families for a few weeks at least. I think we take it for granted sometimes, and it's wonderful to experience other families' excitement about features that we also love.

Why they chose this property

The beach is usually very quiet, and our grassy yard is the perfect place to enjoy lake breezes and views of the broad lake.

What makes this property unique

We have great beach access. Another plus is the second porch. We are only a half-mile from Airport Park, with its fields, playground, and extensive walking/biking trails. In the other direction is the Colchester Causeway, where either biking or walking, you experience Lake Champlain on both sides.
