About this property

Beautifully Restored Farmhouse On Lake Champlain

Enjoy Lake Champlain and the Burlington area while staying in this beautifully restored 1920’s farmhouse. The lake front house offers breathtaking views of Lake Champlain and the Adirondack Mountains. With 225 feet of private beach front and a swim raft and boat mooring and brand new dock, this property is perfect for kayaking, sailing, and swimming, fishing, or just lounging around in the sun. LL Bean loved the property so much that they featured it in their November, 2016 winter catalog. The water access is very shallow and perfect for children and people of all ages to enter and exit. House includes a floating swim raft, boat mooring, a two person kayak, and a one person kayak and lots of other 'toys' including badminton/volleyball equipment, horseshoes, tetherball, golf clubs, baseball gloves, soccer balls, football, rugby ball and other sports equipment. We also feature a fire pit for roasting marshmallows or just relaxing in front of the fire. The porch has a ping pong/air hockey table. A pool table is located in the garage for your use.

This farmhouse features five bedrooms. The open concept living room, dining area and kitchen is well set up for family gatherings and guests of all ages! The farmhouse stretches 3 floors and houses its 5 Bedrooms on the top 2 levels of the home offering lots of privacy and space to get away from each other if you want to!

There is large deck overlooking the lake - adirondack chairs, tables and lounge chairs are available for your relaxation. Lay back in your lounge chair while watching the sunset over the Adirondack Mountains.

The first floor has a three season room with a wall of windows facing the lake and has a large dining room table where you can enjoy your meals while taking in the view. There is also a lakeside deck and patio with perennial gardens. The kitchen has been recently renovated with top quality modern appliances and soap stone counters. The living room features a working fireplace while the den has a propane stove that keeps you toasty when the weather cools. There are 3 full recently renovated bathrooms. The first floor bath is great for when the kids come in from the lake, featuring a shower and adjacent laundry room. The second floor contains 4 bedrooms and one full bath. The front bedroom has twin beds and overlooks the lake, bedroom 2 is cozy with a brass double bed, bedroom 3 has bunk beds for the kids and the 4th bedroom features a queen bed. The master suite located on the third floor features a sitting room with a day bed, a king size bed. The adjacent bath contains a claw tub as well as a separate shower room. Lake and mountain views can be seen from all bedrooms.

Please note that during the summer months, starting the the end of June, we only accept Saturday to Saturday bookings.
There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. The bathroom has a bathtub and a hair dryer. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.

My family loves staying at Susan Orr’s wonderful house on Lake Champlain. The house has everything you might need, including a fully stocked kitchen and so many possibilities for entertainment (e.g. kayaks, air hockey, volley ball, games, and more). Perhaps best of all is the incredibly beautiful view of the lake.

This is the most beautiful setting imaginable! Beautifully cared for grounds. It sits right on the lake, fantastic porch/room running the width of the house overlooking NY coast. Cozy, charming rooms. It feels like you are staying in a home, not a rental. Plenty of “toys” for all ages! This was our fourth stay and we’ve already booked next year.

Each time we stay in this spacious, comfortable home, we enjoy it all—the lake, the games, the magnificent views, the expansive porches, the charming Grand Isle shops and food stands, and of course our time as a three generation family making memories.and being grateful.

Our group of family and friends spent a week here to celebrate my 50th birthday. There were so many places to sit and read or do a jigsaw puzzle or have a conversation. We swam, went kayaking, found all of the little castles in South Hero, got creemees at Seb’s, walked on the causeway and watched the Plattsburgh fireworks on the 4th of July. Also played badminton and had a fire on the last night to make s’mores. Could not have asked for a better spot.

Wonderful family time

We had a wonderful time with our whole family. The house is spacious, the view is amazing, and the rocky beach is very accessible. There is plenty of outside space for outdoor games and lots of rooms for hanging out in when inside. We will look forward to coming back!

Perfect family vacation property

We stayed here with our granddaughters for three wonderful nights. Between the badminton, kayaking, ping pong, fishing and bocce ball we ALL got plenty of exercise. This farmhouse with its beautiful location and lovely gardens was the perfect setting for playing and relaxing. Thanks for the memories!

Graduation Stay

This was a lovely property with wonderful sunset views. Owner was very responsive. The house was very spacious and comfortable. We were there too early in the season to take advantage of the water access, which we were bummed about because the weather was beautiful! Would love to stay there again in the summer!!

Champlain Islands Marathon Stay

We were visiting from Texas, California, Tennessee, Pennsylvania and Central Vermont for the marathon. This house was a great location convenient to the start/finish line and the course itself. It was an easy trip to Burlington and there were enough local eateries to feed us all. The house was as described with gorgeous views of Lake Champlain. Would definitely return for more relaxation and less running!
