About this property

A Fantastic View on Lake Champlain

In this spectacular home on Lake Champlain you are right on the lake's edge where you can walk down the stairs and be at the water's edge where you can launch one of our 3 kayaks, or a paddle board or just go for a swim. As you sip your morning coffee on the deck you can watch the birds flying across the water. In the evening you can enjoy a romantic dinner watching the spectacular sunsets over the water. We are a 5 minute walk from the St Albans marina where you can park or rent a boat. There is a bike path in the town that goes as far as Jay Peak and you can rent a bike right in town.

In the winter we are close to Smuggler's Notch, Stowe or Jay Peak where you can ski of snow board the best of the North East.

Amazing location and view (really does look like the pictures!), the house was the perfect size for the family. We appreciated being able to use the kayaks on the perfect shoreline.

The house was lovely, comfortable, and clean. They provided plenty of drinking water. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of pillows, blankets, towels, etc. Unlike other homes that I have rented this one seemed truly lived in and had many amenities. I would definitely stay here again. The host was very communicative and available for questions.

Amazing time at the Vermont Maple Festival

Our family traveled to Saint Albans to experience the Vermont Maple Festival. We loved our time at the lake house. The kids enjoyed playing around the lake. The views were great. We were close to some great food and bwverage choices. We are already planning our return trip to Vernont during the otbsr seasons. We will be staying here again!!!

We really enjoyed our stay! The property was spotless, well stocked, and had a beautiful view. The host was wonderful—very communicative and responsive. Just a couple of small quirks to note: the water has a bit of a sulfur smell with low pressure, and we noticed acorns on the roof at night along with a little thermostat hiccup. Overall though, it’s a lovely spot and we had a great experience!

Beautiful view, plenty of space for our family of 4, interior of house was clean and well stocked with necessities, enjoyed the kayaks, paddle boards, and hammocks. We would’ve liked the deck to be cleaned off and the fireplace filled with propane, and some tubes to float on in the lake would make it more comfortable with the seaweed.

Hi Colleen, Sorry about the Propane firepit- its really hard to gauge the usage. Last year it lasted the whole season, so thanks for letting us know. As for the deck- between the time the house is cleaned/turned over- and when you might have arrived, Often the Great Lake gets A LOT of wind and storms that can bring down sticks/branches, acorns and pollen onto the deck with a day even overnight... I'm glad you were otherwise able to enjoy, and we will definitely look into getting tubes or rafts... Thanks and Come Again! Jonathan

Water front treat

We had a wonderful two night stay for leaf peeping and riding the rail trails. The property was lake front in a quiet neighborhood. Saint Albans was a short drive away with nice restaurants. The best part was the beautiful deck overlooking the water, perfect for relaxing and watching the stars.

Wonderful stay on the lake

Mother nature wasn't on our side on this trip so we only got to enjoy the kayaks for the first evening we were there. The rain stopped just long enough for us to enjoy a beautiful sunset on the patio! Thankfully, the indoor accommodations were cozy and spacious with plenty of room for all of us to hang in the living room or spread out and do our own things. The house is close to the Bay store which offers ice cream and other snacks if you happen to forget something. We would definitely stay again! Thank you to the host for being so reachable and pleasant!

November 2024

We were in town for a couple days in November for a youth hockey tournament in St. Albans. The location and general area are nice with many offerings for food and shopping. Beautiful lake house as advertised, and very spacious! Mattresses are firm. I need a fairly dark room for sleeping and the window treatments did a pretty good job blocking light. My family enjoyed our time there and are considering a trip next summer!

Beautiful location on the Eastern shore of lake gives great sunsets. Kitchen well stocked with utensils, spices, cookware, etc. We were there during a hot summer week and only having one AC unit in main living space didn't cool the bedrooms. We were unaware that an algae bloom in the lake is common in July, which closes the beaches and limits water activities. We chose the location for biking and hiking and we were not disappointed. We especially enjoyed the Causeway trail in Burlington.
