Loved loved loved it. Beautiful clean comfortable home and so relaxing with the lake view and my pup loved it. Would definitely rent again shopping plazas were about 15 to 20 minutes away. The only thing I didn't like was I wish we could have stayed longer

This was a cute cottage on Northern Lake Champlain. The views, especially the sunsets were beautiful. We were able to bring our dig and there was a fully fenced yard so she really enjoyed it. It was a great place to kayak from ( there is a tandem to use) and the roads are very bikeable. Kill Kare State Park is absolutely beautiful and about 10-12 miles away, mostly flat terrain. St. Albans City is 15 minutes away for a choice of restaurants and cafes. We had a great week.

Perfect cabin on the lake. Beautiful views. The house had everything we needed for a wonderful vacation. The town of Swanton was lovely with a wonderful restaurant, yummy bakery and access to the rail trails. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

Great Sunset Spot

We enjoyed staying here for a couple of nights while on our way to Montreal. The yard is fully fenced in which was great for our pups, and you can't beat the lake view and evening sunsets! A little pricey for just the two of us, but would stay again with friends and utilize the bunk house.

Lovely cottage for relaxing and enjoying the sunsets. Close to town restaurants and shops. We took a scenic drive across the channel islands. Recommend Snow Farm Winery for tastings and weekly seasonal concerts.
