Evoking images of a simpler time is this classic New Englander cottage. The cottage began its journey in the 1940s in Danbury, CT. It was shipped up to Vermont by train and Oxen powered wagons. It found its forever home on the shores of Lake Champlain on the Alburgh peninsula. From that time forward, it has been a source of pure whimsy and enjoyment for all who enter. It features three bedrooms, bathroom and living room on the second floor. The first floor features a kitchen, family/dining area , laundry room, and half bath. The home is enhanced by a huge lakeside deck that gives you the feeling of being right on the water, because you are! The property boasts 119' direct lake frontage with nice beach area and gradual entry to the water. While the home has modern amenities, it retains the charm of yesteryear and is waiting for new memories to be forged for generations to come!

Loving the lake life

This lakehouse was very comfortable . My Adult kids wished they had air conditioning upstairs because they needed to remote work and it was very hot upstairs during day . We enjoyed swimming in the nearby state park beach . It was good to have the owner near by because one day we had no water and he came over and fixed it right away

Directly on the lake

Nice cottage directly on the water. Great view, big windows, able to swim and kayak right from the house. Downstairs is all newly renovated, with kitchen, laundry, dining and living room area. Upstairs is retro cottage with three bedrooms, bath, and more living area. Quiet road, close to state park and Isle la Motte. Property is fenced along the road so very private but not fencing that would contain a dog. Very well equipped kitchen and extremely comfortable beds. We really enjoyed staying here, watching the sun rise over the water. Easy drives to the islands.

A water's edge rustic retreat

The location with its dock and water access just outside the door couldn’t be better. House water was UV santitzed and available throughout the house. The only issue we had was, due to stability issues, uneven floors, raised thresholds, and inclined access to the street. This presented challenges when walking making it a cautious choice for persons with disabilities. This issue affected only one person and nobody else was bothered by the flooring. We also brought our 14 pound dog and she absolutely loved it and did not want to leave.

Absolutely beautiful spot! Very private and quiet. Had a great time with the family and dog. The view is gorgeous and the sound of the water is perfect. Comfortable beds. There's lots of bugs and spiders, I know it's normal for a house that close to the water but just be aware. We will absolutely stay here again!
