Elegantly Rustic Getaway w/Yard, Fire Pit, Dock, Kayaks - Close to Skiing
Lakeside Elegance
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
This lakeside retreat is the perfect spot for both summer and winter getaways, offering four spacious bedrooms and plenty of room for up to 8 guests. Whether you're looking to unwind by the water or hit the slopes, this home offers a comfortable and well-equipped space for all kinds of activities.
Summer Fun on Lake Rescue
The property boasts a private dock, kayaks, and a canoe, allowing guests to enjoy the tranquility of the lake through swimming, fishing, or leisurely paddling. With a large deck and a gas grill overlooking the water, you can dine al fresco or just relax while enjoying the stunning views. The outdoor firepit with Adirondack chairs makes it easy to unwind at the end of the day with s'mores or just stargazing.
Winter Adventures at Okemo
For winter enthusiasts, the home can be your ground zero for Vermont’s VAST system of snowmobiling trails, your front row seat to take part in the area’s ice fishing adventures or a convenient hub from which you may hop a few miles over to Okemo Mountain where you can enjoy skiing, snowboarding, or tubing. When the snow melts, Okemo transforms into a hub for mountain biking, golfing, and the Timber Ripper Mountain Coaster—ensuring there’s fun to be had all year round.
Comfort and Convenience
The home features a modern kitchen that's perfect for family meals, two family rooms, two cable TVs, and a Ping-Pong table for hours of entertainment. The large dining table is ideal for board games or working on a puzzle. For those who like to stay active, there’s also a Peloton bike available for use with your personal membership.
Relaxation and Scenic Beauty
With stunning views of the lake and surrounding mountains, the secluded setting ensures a peaceful getaway, while still being close to downtown Ludlow for dining, shopping, and entertainment. Whether you're inside warming up by the stone fireplace or out on the water, you'll feel at home in this elegant yet rustic retreat.
