Beautiful cottage in a quiet neighbourhood, a few yards from lake Champlain

You will love this beautiful cottage. Situated in a friendly neighbourhood where children are welcome.
They will love to play in the sand or in the beautiful waters of Lake Champlain. The water level is very low and goes down gradually so it's great for small children as well as adults.

Rest assured that every step has been taken to insure your safety and ours during, and after this Pandemic.
The cottage is our vacation home that we rent out a few times during the summer to help with our expenses.
We do the cleaning ourselves and will make sure that all surfaces are disinfected before and after you leave.

Our cottage is the perfect place for a relaxing vacation.
Beautiful Airport Park located a few minutes away offers tennis, pickleball and basketball courts as well as a bicycle rental tent if you want to take advantage of the beautiful bike paths all around us.
We have 3 sunny bedrooms plus a sun porch
Sun deck facing the lake with patio furniture, gas grill and a cute fire pit.
Short bicycle ride to downtown Burlington along bike path
Offers 2 queen beds and twin bunk beds.
Perfect for relaxing, swimming or sun bathing on our beautiful sandy beach
Great shopping downtown Burlington or at Essex outlets
A short drive to Stowe
On weekends you can rent kayaks or paddleboards at Bayside park or bicycles at Airport Park.
PERFECT FOR UVM and CHAMPLAIN COLLEGE parents visits or graduations.

The Perfect Cottage
This was the perfect place for a little weekend getaway to visit my college kid. Only about 15 min drive to UVM campus. Aside from being so close to the beach/lake (perfect place to watch the sunset!), the back patio provides a lovely, quiet place to enjoy dinner. There’s an enclosed porch to chill, or sit around the island in the kitchen or living room with a fireplace. Our host was very responsive and super helpful. I’m bookmarking this place bc I’ll definitely stay again. Highly recommend!!

Cottage by the lake
We fell in love with this adorable cottage with a gorgeous view and location by the lake. We could walk down to the lake and enjoy the sunset or stay on the porch and relax. It is a short drive to Burlington, restaurants and shops. Highly recommended! We hope to come back soon!

We had a great sister vacation at Claire’s cottage. We were right on the water and close to downtown Burlington. The cottage and yard was filled with beautiful whimsical pieces and the birds were a joy to watch!

Great location near the lake!
This was a lovely little beach house cottage in Vermont. The location was good as Burlington was only a 15 minute drive away. The cottage gets a little cold this time of year (October) so I would recommend using the fireplace for heat at night. Also, the shower is a little small so that is something to consider if you need/want a lot of shower space. Otherwise, the cabin was nice and it was in a good location.

Graduation Weekend
Beds were comfortable and the 3 season porch was a great place to unwind. We enjoyed the view of the water from the house. Kitchen is well stocked with dishes. At night we could hear tree frogs calling on the other side of the road, which was fun. There's also a park nearby with walking trails, and a grocery store close by. Zachary's Pizza is also close and we had an excellent pizza there. It was about 20 minutes to downtown Burlington. A very relaxing place to stay, so glad we found it!

Lovely cozy cottage on Lake Champlain
The cottage was clean, well appointed and cozy! Not far from downtown Burlington by car, and beach access. Beds were comfy and we had a lovely stay. Be watchful of the driveway in arrival if you come after dark—it’s not evident from the street at first glance. Hosts were helpful and communicative.

Lovely camp with everything you want + need
Our stay was absolutely wonderful. The property is in a little neighborhood that is quiet and beautiful with views of the lake and Adirondacks. The kitchen had everything we needed to make our meals and enjoy time together. We loved the fire pit outside and the option to sit under the canopy in the rain. It felt very nice to spend time as a family in someone’s family cabin/camp. We enjoyed playing board games in the evening as well. I cannot say enough great things! We hope to stay again in the future. Thanks for Claire and her family for the great getaway!

Lakeside Retreat
This is a lovely cottage type home on Lake Champlain. We found the owner to be easy to communicate with, via text, and the check in seamless. The location is quite nice and we enjoyed just sitting on the deck in the sunshine. Bird feeders brought a vast array of birds to watch and listen to. The house was clean and ready for our arrival. The wifi signal was strong and there were board games and puzzles to enjoy. Although a short drive from the center of Burlington this was a perfect place to be to attend UVM graduation. I highly recommend this rental.

This is a truly lovely cottage! There is a view of Lake Champlain (partly obstructed by a couple of other cottages, but still very nice), and it's only a one minute walk along a footpath to the beach (no road crossings involved). There is a nice outdoor deck as well as an enclosed porch, both sharing the lakeview. The only significant downside is that there is almost no sound insulation between the rooms. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay at the cottage this fall. it was a nice alternative to staying at a hotel because it is a home and has everything you’d need to feel comfortable. We enjoyed the kitchen and the fireplace and the cozy atmosphere. I hope to be back some other time in the spring when we can enjoy the patio and the lake as well.

Loved the huge deck
We loved being so close to the lake and having a view of it from the huge deck and the sun porch. While the cottage is small for 3 couples and might be better for a family with kids, we made it work and were comfortable (my adult daughter and her boyfriend had to sleep in bunk beds but they were fine with it). The large deck outside, with chairs and a table gave us room to spread out and the beach is right there. The cottage is also right on the bike path, which we loved. The kitchen was well stocked and comfortable to cook in. Beds were also very comfortable. We had a lovely 6 nights at the house.
