About this property

Lakeside Isbell Cottage and Isbellita Guest Cottage

Peaceful rustic 1930s cottage on beautiful Lake Willoughby in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. Incredible sunset views over the lake from any of the 3 porches, open, screened and sleeping. Vintage wainscot walls hung with old and new artwork, and large front yard with a fire ring. Lovely cedar hedged alley leading to private beach across the road with deck, Adirondack chairs and a dock for sitting and swimming. Shallow swimming perfect for young children.
Second guest cottage on property included with queen bed, single day bed, mini kitchen (fridge, sink and coffee machine only) living room and porch.
Just 3 properties north of the Willoughby Lake Store where you can find just about anything you might have forgotten from fishing gear to ice cream (and creemees!), to local gifts and a liquor store.
Close to beautiful hikes, museums, great antiquing, farmers markets and the Bread and Puppet Theater.

About the host

Hi,

I first went to Lake Willoughby as a young child and it got stuck in my heart. When I began the search to find a retreat, Willoughby naturally bubbled to the surface.

I am so happy to share this very magical cottage with you. I hope you will enjoy the peace and fun that Isbell has to offer.

Why they chose this property

This cottage sings of vacations of old: porch swing, hammocks, and fire pits, the clearest water in all of Vermont, loons at night, eagles during the day, hiking or lazy walks, virtually every driver that passes waves, fireworks on the fourth, cool nights for sleeping and hot days for swimming, creemees just a walk away, incredible autumn color, a place to slow down and enjoy your family and friends.

What makes this property unique

This is not an IKEA vacation home. The furniture and decorations match the atmosphere of a 1930s cottage. It's a bit of a Time Machine to what we now believe were simpler days (not sure those in the 30s would agree but sure feels that way now).
