uncomfortable
Beds are so tight you could not walk around especially the master. Window in Master re -seated after in blew in during the wind. Couch was filthy after lifting up the cushions. Definitely not a premium property.

Perfect
The house was right on the Lake and just perfect for a quick week getaway. The house was spotless and had all the amenities you could need. It was a great location for hiking and if the weather was warm boating &swimming

Perfect Blue bay view and lovely home
Short weekend visit for our college kid and it was perfect and convenient to Burlington for 4 of us and our dog We were hoping to use the paddle boards and kayaks but didn’t get a chance to use them. Next time! It was clean, beautifully updated and amazing lake view

Nice stay on the bay.
In Vermont for a wedding and wanted to stay near the water for a few days before heading to the mountains. Best of both worlds in Vermont.

Birthday getaway
Came to Burlington for two nights to celebrate our UVM student’s birthday. The young adults loved the stand up paddle boarding and swimming. I loved the cleanliness and convenience (everything we needed!) Loved the fluffy bath towels and beach towels that were provided. We didn’t cook but appreciated that the kitchen was fully equipped. The road next to the house is busy, but the view of the lake is spectacular!
