Come to The Cottage! Cozy Vermont Lakefront Retreat on Lake Carmi -Sleeps 7!
Is this the getaway you've been dreaming about? (Yes, I think so. Probably.)
Tucked into the quiet pines of northern Vermont, this lakefront cottage on Lake Carmi is the kind of place that makes you forget the rest of the world exists. Peaceful, serene, and so private — no one will know. No crowds, no spotlight. Just the water, the trees, and everything you've been meaning to slow down for. You'd like to relax here with someone, for once. And you will.
Spend your days drifting across the glassy lake by canoe or casting a line as the mist lifts off the water. Come evening, pull up an Adirondack chair, light a fire, and watch the stars appear one by one until the whole sky opens up above you. And at night? You might just hear it — that long, haunting wail echoing off the water. (Never heard this sound before? Yes, it's scary, but you're brave.) It's a loon! A "stupid Canadian wolf bird" (yes, we're located just a few miles from the Canadian border) — but honestly, it's one of the most magical sounds you'll ever hear.
When the bugs come out, retreat to the screened-in porch with a cold drink and nowhere to be. You're good here, okay?
The cottage offers three comfortable bedrooms, a gorgeous, rustic family room, and a relaxing screened-in porch — it's everything you need to stay for a week (or even two). And we have a feeling you'll want to.
Whether you're coming with family or a group of friends (or that one person you've finally stopped pretending you don't like!) — there's room for everyone, even the dog!
Is this such a bad idea? What, to unplug completely, leave the noise behind, and disappear into the Vermont woods for a week? No. (It's lie. Liar told you that.) You'll love it here. So much.
So, are you coming to the cottage?
**YES, this listing description is a bit unconventional! Listen, if you know, you know! (Canadian TV show featuring a hockey love story, anyone?) But if you don't know? You'll still fully enjoy the beauty and quiet this cottage has to offer. You deserve sunshine, too. We can't wait for you to find it here at Lake Carmi!

This camp was perfect for our family! Super cute little bit of a walk down stairs to the lake but don’t let that deter you it was totally fine! We had everything we needed, in hindsight sight we should have stayed a bit longer to enjoy the space longer. Loved the fenced in area for the dog!
