Enjoyable, quite out of the way cabin with great views. Everything is as advertised. I would recommend for anyone looking to enjoy Lake Champlain and surrounding areas.
T'was good to be back on Lake Champlain.My needs were covered bytes lovely housing and setting.I would suggest that a vacuum cleaner would be present for the longer stay.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It was comfortable, secluded, peaceful, charming and nice and simple. Totally chilled out and relaxed in the pleasant and beautiful lakeside retreat. Did some kayaking and swimming...Had a bonfire.. Did some site seeing...Don't miss Ausable Chasm and Texas Red Hots (2miles north). The owners, were so friendly, accommodating and helpful. Grounds were clean. Brought our dog, Zoey and she enjoyed it too. The getaway we needed. Thank you

Good location but the the cottage was not clean.
We enjoyed the kayaks, lake, sunrise views and peace but not happy with the cleaness of the cottage.
This was a fantastic rental! It was exactly as described and pictured. For context, this is on a larger property with a main house and then four smaller rental properties on site. We found the owners to be fabulous, responsive, and knowledgeable about the lake and the area. In addition, they could not have been kinder to our six-year-old son or our pup. An amazing location with perfect views of Valcour Island and the lighthouse. Great little beach for playing and adjacent to a creek for more exploration. We will happily come back next year.
This was exactly what we were looking for in this trip. We wanted to be on the water, with a view and a safe place to let our kids run without worry. Bonus we even got to bring our dog who is getting older and probably will be her last trip and she ran her heart out playing fetch in the water! LOVELY people, responsive manager and the location was perfect. We rented a boat from the next door rental place, Valcour Boat Rentals, and had a wonderful experience with them as well. This house isn't as new looking as the pics made it seem to me, but the pics are accurate and it was clean, fresh and it had EXACTLY what we required and everything worked as it should!
This is a very nice cottage in a beautiful location right on the lake convenient to hiking, supermarket, museums in Plattsburgh and major highways. We really enjoyed peace and quiet this spot offered. Cottage is really comfortable. Thank you!

Great vacation getaway!
We absolutely loved our stay at Heron Ledge! Despite being close to the highway, 2 other cottages, a campground and a marina, it was remarkably quiet and very peaceful. We enjoyed the views of the lake and Valcour Island / Lighthouse from the deck of Lynn's Cottage, and we were most appreciative of the fully equipped kitchen, cable television, wi-fi, in-unit washer and dryer, and the really comfortable bed. The linens and dishes were top-notch, and I was able to find an appropriate pot / pan / dish for everything I prepared in the kitchen. We were close to many wonderful attractions, good restaurants and a variety of shopping opportunities---all of which we took advantage of! The owners and cleaning staff were most pleasant, and Sue, the realtor with whom we dealt when making our arrangements, was extremely helpful. It was a great experience, and we look forward to visiting again!

Simply the Best!
As always, Phoebe and Bruce have made our stay the absolute best. The accommodations are superb and made our vacation well worth waiting for. The attention to detail and immaculate condition of the cabin have made this our first vacation choice for our last three consecutive family vacations.
I cannot recommend this property enough. If you want seclusion and privacy as well as being close to all the best of the Adirondacks, this is the place.

About the host
Hosted by Barbara Davidson
In their childhoods, owners Joy and Jean were both fortunate to stay on lakes, small and large, in housekeeping cottages. We found this unique property and saw it as a way to preserve the 'old-fashioned', simple-pleasures vacation. Because their home is also here, they can live it and share it!
Why they chose this property
Location is the key. Beautiful sunsets, hiking, biking, wildlife, mountain views, and so much more to relax and enjoy.
What makes this property unique
Enjoy direct access to Lake Champlain with your own private beach. Experience spectacular sunrises and stunning views of the moon rising over Valcour Island Lighthouse and Bluff Point.
Guests with boats on trailers can park them in a secluded lawn area and easily launch them at the nearby Peru NYS Boat Launch. This is an ideal spot for bass fishermen looking to make the most of their stay during tournaments.
Spend your days exploring Ausable Chasm, Wickham Marsh Wildlife Area, hiking, biking, or simply relaxing on the water. Those with friends and family in the area are welcome to invite them for day visits, as additional parking is available on the lawn next to the driveway.
