Lake Champlain Waterfront - Private Dock, Sleeps 12, Minutes to Burlington

Post-and-beam home on the Vermont shore of Lake Champlain, with westerly views over Niquette's Bay and sunsets straight off the water. Twenty minutes to Church Street in Burlington, under an hour to Stowe, Smugglers' Notch and Bolton Valley.

The dock is the thing people come back for. An oversized floating dock running out to deep water - bring the boat, swim off the end, or just sit on it. There is a public launch at Mallets Bay a few minutes away, and extra land here to park a trailer.

SLEEPING - 12 PEOPLE

A-frame loft: two full beds, side by side with space between - sleeps 4
First-floor master: full bed - sleeps 2
Downstairs en suite: king bed and private bath - sleeps 2
Basement room: trundle beds - sleeps 2
Living room: pull-out couch - sleeps 2

The open area of the loft also fits three or four air mattresses comfortably, so families travelling with kids can add several more without anyone being on top of each other. Ask me and I will tell you honestly whether your group will fit.

Everything in the house is included in the price. No locked rooms, no add-ons.

THE REST OF IT

Fully equipped kitchen. Gas grill with the gas provided. Outdoor brick oven. Two washers and two dryers. Starlink satellite internet, which out here is genuinely fast.

Hot tub is open June 1 through November 30. It is drained and winterized December 1 through May 31 - I would rather tell you that up front than have you arrive expecting it.

THROUGH THE YEAR

Summer is swimming, boating, fishing and long evenings on the dock. Autumn is the hiking, with trails from easy to serious, and the foliage people fly in for. Winter is skiing at three mountains within an hour, the VAST snowmobile trail nearby, and ice fishing on Niquette's Bay a short walk away.

HOUSE NOTES

No pets. No events. No smoking indoors. The road in is 20 mph and the neighbours take it seriously.

The same families come back year after year. Happy to answer anything before you book.

Security: Two exterior cameras cover the driveway and front entrance. There are no cameras inside the house, and none face the hot tub, deck or dock.

Hot tub: included 1 June - 30 November. From 1 December to 31 May it is winterized, but we can open it for your stay with at least 7 days' notice for $250 - refunded in full if extreme cold prevents a safe fill.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a private hot tub, a washing machine, and a fireplace.
