This incredible place was exactly the sanctuary my husband and I needed during our July 2026 stay. We buried my parents that week, making it a very difficult time for us. However, we found peace, beauty, and quiet in this lake home. I grew up in Wells, so being right on Lake St. Catherine was a joy. Sitting on the dock, seeing the mountains and waters I grew up with right there...what can you say?We had everything we needed — a stocked kitchen, a gas grill, and plenty of room to relax. The spiral staircase is something to keep in mind when packing, and if you have mobility issues. However, Linda made everything super clear in the listing, and there were no surprises. Keep that in mind if you need to get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom on the first floor.The bathroom was also well stocked! The shower was perfect! There are plenty of fans, which you will need during the unfamiliar hot summers Vermont has compared to when I was a child. So, make sure to use them! We enjoyed the loft bedroom despite no adjacent bathroom. We found the bed very comfortable!It was hard to leave this little piece of heaven when the time came. We lost most of the first day due to travel headaches flying into Albany, so the time we spent at the lake house felt even more precious.My husband loved the kayaks! We both enjoyed the zero gravity loungers on the dock!Linda sent lots of great information before we checked in. Can't wait to return!
