I stayed here with a large group of family for my mom’s 70th birthday in September. What a great place to stay! The house is adorable, clean, and very roomy. It was very easy to get to, and convenient for day trips to Burlington, Shelburne, Middlebury, Waterbury, and Stowe. The views are gorgeous, and there’s a lovely deck to sit on and take them in along with the lake breeze. Ilmar, one of the hosts, was so helpful and accommodating! When I messaged with concerns about accessibility for an injured member of our group, he called me to discuss the situation and assure me that the house is all one level (no stairs). What a nice person! So glad we stayed here. We’ll definitely be staying here again in the future. Thanks, Ilmar! :)

The place is beautiful and most of the rooms are quite large. There were enough bathrooms and bedrooms for us each to have our own and their kitchen was equipped with everything including an array of spices. The host was quick to respond and very accommodating.

Great location, beautiful views. The house was perfect for our family of 10 and we enjoyed our weekend celebration. The two bedroom section was a great quiet retreat when we needed a bit of quiet time.

Stunning Views of Lake Champlain

If you like nautical decor and spectacular views of Lake Champlain, this is the place for you. It has everything you need, great location in South Hero, Vermont (an island on Lake Champlain) and is close to Burlington and Shelburne, Vermont where there is lots to do and see. House and property are very quiet and peaceful.Excellent communication with host.

Great Fall Weekend

We enjoyed our stay! The owner has included some very nice touches that had us out and about in the area, enjoying the beautiful island. We really appreciate him going the extra mile to be so welcoming and accommodating. It helped us to eat and shop local on the island.

We will be back! Isn't that the best review possible?The house is spacious, quiet, and has an incredible view of the lake, even from inside the living room due to the picture windows.Ilmar is a gracious host who not only called twice before our visit to prepare us, but acted quickly when we had trouble with the dishwasher. The house is equipped with most everything you need to live comfortably, from excellent coffee makers to ample sets of utensils and dishes. We looked for but could not find a clothes iron or cutting board for cheese, but everything else--even board games--were there. We were especially delighted to find the host left a gift card to a local winery and had a lovely excursion there-would not have known about it otherwise. So thoughtful!Thank you for an amazing stay!! We can't wait to do it again!PS I took amazing astrophotos. A telescope would be a nice addition to the house--I brought my own!
