About this property

This sweet Lake Champlain cottage is a wonderful retreat for a romantic getaway or small family vacation! Nestled in the trees, this craftsman built cottage is a perfect getaway spot. Tucked in the corner of a large family estate, this cozy cottage's private yard meets over 200 feet of direct frontage on the western shore of Lake Champlain.

While small in size, you'll be impressed by the smart design of this cottage. The vaulted timber ceiling in the master bedroom loft is lovely. The wraparound wall of windows in the 3 season room gives the expanded open living and dining area a sunny, spacious feel. .The kitchen doesn't cut any corners: you'll find a gas range, dishwasher, microwave, toaster oven, fridge with freezer, and all the pots and pans you need to prepare meals. Kitchen and living area are one cozy room. Downstairs, the guest room/den has 2 twin beds.

Wonderful and peaceful

We had a relaxing time. The sunroom with the pellet stove was really nice. Home is cozy and lovely. Very quiet and serene area. We did some running and visited the beach- much fun. Dogs had a nice time as well. Nina and Erin were both kind and gracious hosts.

Cozy Cabin on the lake!

We absolutely loved our stay here. Such a unique cabin and the location is stunning. 15” of snow dropped while we were here, making it even more picturesque and dreamy. Private and secluded but just far/close enough from Burlington to be convenient. Less than an hour from Stowe and Smugglers. Host was super communicative and helpful with a few questions we had. Can’t recommend this place highly enough. We’ll definitely be back.

Cozy little cabin!

This cabin was all that we could ask for. A nice pellet stove in the living room/Florida room was the cherry on top for us! The view of the lake was beautiful and the property was so peaceful. Numa was very attentive and answered our questions promptly. There is a little town close by that may not look like much but is actually very vibrant and full of awesome places to eat/drink/shop. The bed in the cabin is very comfortable which is one of the most important things to me when staying somewhere other than home. We will definitely be booking this one again on our next trip

A lovely birthday weekend on the Island at a very special place

I was very impressed with this place. First, it had everything we needed. It was well-equipped, plenty of linens, the kitchen has everything you need, and there is plenty of space to relax. There is obviously a lot of thought and craftsmanship that went into making this place comfortable. Location is awesome, we loved the trees flanking the back yard and found a perfect place to set up our hammocks. We brought our kayaks and bikes and found opportunities to use both. Amazing sunsets, of course. We would stay there again, for sure. Thank you for being great hosts!

Beautiful location and property on the water.

A simple, rustic and clean place on the lake with a very large yard leading to the shore. Lots of windows facing the water and great entertainment space.

Perfect cottage on the lake!

Cottage is as pictures. Rustic inside and out. Kitchen is well stocked with all the basics. Could use a new mattress in master bedroom and perhaps a refresh on some of the more aging items (throws, pillows, etc) Nina was lovely to deal with and it ended up being right on the half marathon course. Excellent for hubby and our bernese mountain dog to cheer us on. Highly recommend fora getaway!

Perfect house and location

This house and it’s location were perfect. Nina was quick to answer any questions. The check in was very easy. We so much enjoyed the living area looking out at Lake Champlain. It was so peaceful sitting and reading in this room. The house was clean and well supplied. It was so nice being able to walk right to the lake shore. It was too cool for us to swim. But it looked very easy to get into the water. We also liked the convenience of a general store close by. We had a wonderful stay and would recommend this house to anyone. Nina, thank you for letting us rent this house.

Beautiful place

We loved our all-too-brief stay here. It’s just as described, maybe better. The house is cozy and comfortable, and the master bedroom upstairs huge and airy. Our dog loved the big yard leading down to the water, which of course has amazing views and spectacular sunsets. Great swimming, and great cycling around the islands too. A wonderful, relaxing time.

We stayed for a month!

We came here for the first time when I was pregnant with my oldest daughter, and we came back this summer when she was 10 years old. My little family were so happy and cozy tucked up in Nina’s little cabin. The property is everything we dream of for a lake vacation. It’s such a special place to be with family and make memories. Perfect lake Champlain site, room to run around, memories my children will Jacob forever!

Charm on Lake Champlain

A short but amazing family vacation on this very special property in So. Hero. My first visit to the area and could not have been more pleased with the house, the yard, the shoreline and amazing sunsets. The house is larger than it appears in the photos and is a very comfortable place for the family with our dog in tow. It was a dreamy location with great views and peaceful surroundings. Nina and her family could not be more lovely and welcoming. We will be back !

This place was a dream

Everything about this home was as advertised. It was moderately clean (if you love spotless, living by the water did attract some bugs which is normal but nothing major and nothing disruptive), quiet, completely private and utterly beautiful. You cannot beat the location. The porch area was perfect for dinners, game nights, morning coffee. My pup adjusted so well. She slept like a champ, the yard was big for her to run in and the neighbors adorable dog came over to play with her once a day. We swam in the water and had a lovely fire in the fire pit. And the neighbors (who happen to be family of the owner) were friendly and kind. All correspondence with Nina was timely. She worked with me when I had to adjust my vacation schedule slightly. We’re already talking about coming back! Highly recommend
