During the summer months, enjoy life by the lake. You can rent a boat from the local marina, fish and swim.

Repeat stay
This is our second time staying at Phil’s place, and once again we had a wonderful time. It’s the perfect size home for 4 adults and 2 pups, and the pups love the yard to run around in. Phil does a great job communicating with us, especially during any weather concerns. We are planning another trip soon and will look to stay here again!!

New Years Getaway
The house was just what we were looking for and had everything we needed for our New Years getaway. It is centrally located to allow for day trips to Lake George NY and Burlington VT which we thoroughly enjoyed. Phil was a truly amazing host providing very detailed information about our stay leaving us with no questions, he was excellent! We were very happy to be able to bring our pup, house is very dog friendly with a fenced in backyard - would definitely return!!

About the host

Hosted by Phil Wood

Host profile image
We are both originally from the UK, no kids but we have 2 doggies, which explains why the garden is dog safe and we welcome doggies as guests at no extra cost.

Why they chose this property

We love this area of Vermont, it combines being not too far from Stamford where we live, its near(ish) for skiing, has a local airport (I fly) and there is the largest lake in Vermont (fully enclosed) .. the lake is frozen in winter, there's a beach which is great for kids in summer.

What makes this property unique

This house is our home and its your home while you are here. We make sure its well stocked with usual household staples, paper goods for bathroom and kitchen, washer dryer supplies, bedding in all combinations, lots of towels and a fully stocked kitchen that makes cooking in easy. We make sure that the staples such as condiments, butter, oil etc are always here so you don't need to bring those.

We love doggies, the garden is dog safe so this is a vacation for ALL the members of your family.
