Lake Champlain vacation

We were very impressed with everything about the cottage. It was extremely clean and well organized with everything we needed. The porches were fantastic for relaxing after dark without the bugs. The hosts were very accommodating and left many tips for things to do in the area. We had a great stay.

The cottage was immaculate and the craftsmanship superb with so many additional touches. Wonderfully bright and airy with the multiple french patio doors, windows and screened porches all overlooking the gardens and lake. It was a short stay for us which didn't allow for the use of the kayaks. We primarily biked and there was a covered area to store them. The kitchen is fully stocked, thinking of everything. It was a pleasure meeting Mary and John. I highly recommend reserving your get away here.

The pictures don't do it justice - this cottage sits on a beautiful property with great views of & great access to the lake! Perfect for a small family, as there is a large yard for the kids to play, including swings. You can easily set up beach chairs on the stone beach at the lake. Enjoyed using the homeowner's kayak & water trampoline! Would highly recommend staying at this property!

Beautiful and Peaceful Getaway

The perfect house for 2-4 people. Beautiful setting right on the lake. Enjoyed the screened in porch for enjoying the evenings and watching fireflies. The house has everything you need and is very clean and well maintained. Mary is a very good host and easy to communicate with. We will definitely be booking again next time we are out in Vermont!

Lovely Second Stay

This was my second visit to Island View cottage. I first visited with a friend back in Sept 2018 and never forgot how wonderful the cottage, hosts and location were. When I was looking for a place to spend time with my mom and cousins I knew this was the perfect spot. We had a great time and everything was as great as I remembered. I look forward to returning sometime in the future.

Wonderful stay

We were extremely pleased with the cottage! It was exactly as pictured - even better. It was very clean and had all the amenities you could think of. We spent many hours sitting in the screened-in porch enjoying the wonderful view of both the beautiful yard and the lake. Mary and John, the owners, live next door on the same property and were friendly and attentive without being intrusive. We look forward to returning someday

Lovely Lake Cottage

Simply put, Island View Cottage is just perfect! The views of Lake Champlain are wonderful, the location is quiet and peaceful, yet handy to the bike trail, the General Store and other necessities. The cottage itself is quite comfortable and well equipped. We loved sitting out on the screened porch to have our coffee or to read and relax most of all. Mary, the owner, was so very friendly and helpful, answering any questions we had. We highly recommend Island View Cottage!

Great vacation!

Everything was as listed. Mary and John were very helpful, pleasant, and responsive hosts. The cottage itself was very comfortable and well thought-out. The beds were comfortable, and the shower was great -- two very important things to me in a rental. There's a lot to do in the area. I would recommend this cottage to just about everyone, whether you're looking for a quiet week by the lake, sight-seeing, fishing, hiking, and/or biking. Enjoy!

Charming home on lake Champlain!

The house was perfect for a family of four. They utilized all space available. It worked out great for a family of 4. We loved the screened in porches and the well landscaped yard. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you could possibly need. We loved the outdoor shower! Lake Champlain did not disappoint. We caught many different types of fish and enjoyed exploring the little islands. We also found at the gas station to the north makes homemade fudge! Thursdays is the best day to go. Overall I would recommend this cottage for anyone. Mary and John were great in helping with the litte things, and just sent the nicest messages or checked in to make sure we were good!

Amazing Girl's Weekend on Lake Champlain

This cottage was perfect for a a girls weekend away. Mary and John thought of everything when they built and decorated it. Our favorite part was relaxing on the large screen porch looking out at the lake. The weather was picture perfect and we were able to leave the french doors open all weekend to enjoy the fresh air and sounds of nature. North Hero is a quiet community so plan to come and relax and enjoy the scenery. Amazing sunrises over the lake if you're a morning person (I am). We enjoyed cocktails at the Pier Bar at North Hero House as well as a wine tasting and snacks at Snow Farm Vineyard. We ventured over to Plattsburgh, NY on the ferry for dinner one night which was a fun experience. And of course we were lucky enough to have great September weather to take a dip in the lake right at the cottage. Looking forward to a return trip!

This is one of the nicest properties we've ever visited! Not only are Mary and John lovely and kind hosts, they have created a beautiful space that is well thought-out, clean, and comfortable. The cabin is perfect for a small family. The grounds are so pretty with easy access to the lake/dock down sturdy stairs. We kayaked and swam and saw all kinds of wildlife. Don't hesitate - this IS the spot!

beautiful stay for our daughters wedding

This is an immaculate cottage with plenty of room for 4 adults. Owners updates take full advantage of every inch of space (albeit lacking in any closet) ..extra special are the French doors in each of the 2 bedrooms with adjoining and private screened porch. Perfect location close to family staying at nearby inn. Generous host, great communication. We had a wonderfully relaxing stay :)
