Lake Champlain direct waterfront cottage on lovely Mills Point in Colchester Vt

Please stay at our cool lakefront cottage on Mallets Bay, Colchester. Very private with hedges\fences on 3 sides and a mix of open water and marsh in front of you, as well as Mt Mansfield & the Green Mtns in the background. This was originally a seasonal camp, converted to year-roud use decades ago and upgraded regularly. Bear in mind, it is still a cottage We have a 100' dock for your boat [its shallow, details provided if you're bringing a boat], and we provide a canoe & rowboat. A firepit & bbq and a big lawn with games provided make this a good spot for relaxing or as a launch pad for the famous Island Line bike trail, a 1-minute ride/walk away. 20 minutes by bike to Burlington, 10 by car. Swimming is a 3-minute walk to our shared shale beach, as it's a muddy bottom and marshy area directly in front of the cottage. Close by are beaches, natural area's walking biking paths, grocery stores, restaurant, even a drive-in movie spot all minutes away.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker and an ironing board.

We had a wonderful stay! The cottage is in a cute lakeside location and was exactly what we were looking for. Fantastic hosts with great communication throughout our stay. Check-in and check-out were both easy and seamless. We’d definitely stay here again!

We all loved this property and if ever in the area again we will look to see if this is available. Excellent host, Anthony sent us a message a few days before our arrival, was able to let us check in early which was huge as we had to go into town for an event by 430 - a 3pm arrival would have made it tight. Fantastic cottage on the lake, in the short time we were there we took advantage of the firepit, BBQ, and canoe. Scenic view of the lake is amazing. Thank you for making one of our last stops on our family summer vacation the best one.
