Perfect spot for a quiet week on the lake. Alburg Cottage was exactly as described, very comfortable, many thoughtful touches throughout the cabin. We really enjoyed sleeping on the porch and just hanging out in the yard enjoying the lake view, or sitting around the fire pit in the evening. Melanie and Vincent were wonderful hosts, they have a property next door and met us when we arrived. It was so nice to be able to bring our dog Charlie, plenty of space outside for him to explore. We also really appreciated having access to the kayaks and canoe. We would definitely return!

great camp with amazing sunsets, clean, well cared for and with all the ammenities, all you need to bring is food and a fishing pole. The owners are great people also and very responsive for any needs that may arise. Has a dock with mooring if needed. Great stay for our second year in a row and already booked for next year!

The Alburgh Cottage

We spent a week at the Alburgh Cottage. If you are looking for a peaceful location with beautiful sunsets this is the cottage to rent. The owners are very accommodating and do their best to make your stay enjoyable.

June vacation

Over all nice camp. Great location. Host was friendly. One thing that would have made our stay better would have been if the camp had ac. Due to two of the days were mid to high 90’s witch inside the camp felt hotter.

One of the first sunsets of our stay.

Hi Ray. Thank you for your review. We have been hesitant to add an AC unit as it changes the "cottage" ambience and so many guests have said "No don't!" It used to be very unusual to have temps in the 90's and if we did, it would be for a day and then cool down in the evening. But times are changing and we definitely want our guests to be comfortable so we are looking into having AC installed. It was nice meeting you and your family. Thanks again for the review.

cozy and relaxing

All of the previous positive reviews are accurate. This cabin was clean, comfortable, and beautifully located. Melanie and Vinny were so kind and helpful. After a day of hiking, I was so glad to come back to this cabin. Hannah, my dog, loved the big yard and swimming. Highly recommend this place!

Summer break at the lake

Exactly what I had wanted - rustic but with the amenities that make it easy to have my coffee and cook when I choose. The view of the lake - and the sunsets across that lake - incredible! Had my two grown daughters join me unexpectedly, but we each had ample space and enjoyed day trips to Burlington and St. Albans. And read books!!! Very peaceful place - other than the deer flies that are everywhere in Vermont this time of year.

The Alburgh Cottage

The Alburgh Cottage with its amazing views was breathtaking........ let alone to watch the resident eagle soar past our window every morning. The cottage itself besides being cozy had a rustic atmosphere with a taste a fisherman would love and even his wife! Everything was inviting about our cottage. The host and hostess provided us with everything one could imagine. And on top of it it all, it was very clean and kept immaculate.

Family of three and pets

Owners live next door to the property. They were welcoming. The views are breath-taking. We enjoyed several of the 4th of July fireworks from the water's edge. The drive to the closest supermarket was 30 mins. Recommend a visit to the nearby towns and farmers market (approx 30 mins drive). We enjoyed fishing, swimming, kayaking, and canoeing. The small fans were inadequate in cooling the rooms and the bedroom with the bunk beds has a window that doesn't open. First day, I had to clean the yard and pick up after previous dogs walked in the area. The owner apologized and she was understanding. It would be a place we would return to if an air conditioner were added; otherwise, the heat is overwhelming at night.

This is a great camp that is exactly as described. The camp was clean, beds were comfortable & it was well stocked. Our family of four had everything we needed for a two week stay. Simply bring your food, clothes & fishing gear.The newly installed AC was an added perk, as we had some unusually hot days.Melanie & Vinny are extremely kind hosts who live next door. Otherwise the house is extremely secluded and quiet. Already looking forward to our next visit!

A perfectly relaxing week on the Lake

The cottage is very cozy and inviting, Mel and Vin have really thought of everything! Sleeping on the porch was so peaceful and refreshing and of course the sunsets can't be beat. The location is secluded and quiet. It should be noted that there is a set of stairs down to the water (about 20) in the event someone is unable to navigate. The amount of weeds in the water was unfortunate because we couldn't swim, but we made the best of it. Owners were very responsive and had fresh flowers waiting for us when we arrived. Very tasteful!

Life at Alsburgh Cottage

Our hosts, Melanie and Vinny, greeted us at our arrival with a warm welcome, a tour of the property, lovely local flowers which graced the kitchen table and an offer of kindness and friendship. They are a wonderful and gracious couple. The camp is delightfully simple and thoughtfully supplied. It was the relaxation we were seeking and included such things as kayaks for exploring the lake and/or fishing, a small woodstove for one chilly, rainy day, books, movies and games. The sunsets are truly spectacular, the chipmonk colony entertaining and there is a charming background of bird song throughout the day. It was everything we hoped for and more... and like many before us, we hope to return.

Anniversary trip

My wife and I stayed a week at the cabin for our anniversary trip. It was our base camp for daily trips to nearby towns for hiking and biking. We enjoyed the peace and quite as well as the amazing sunsets!
