Year-Round: Amazing Sunrises, 150ft Shore, Private Boat Launch/Dock, Hot Fishing

Phenomenal sunrises at this nature-rich lakefront home on Lake Champlain with five bedrooms (King, Queen, two rooms with 2x Twins in each, and one with a twin over full bunk), two full bathrooms, kitchen with full-sized appliances (fridge/stove/dish washer/microwave), full-sized washer/dryer, Wifi, three season porch facing the lake, 2 decks (1x attached to home and one on the waterfront), grill, attached garage, 150ft of private shoreline, and a dock.

This home was recently converted from a single-family home to a full-time resort. The amenities and decor give it a unique, nautically-themed ambiance in the summer and a cozy, winter wonderland feel in the winter.

Summer Amenities: Private boat launch, dock, 2 Kayaks, 2 Stand-Up Paddle Boards, life jackets, and inflatables for swimming.

Conveniently located just off route 78 between Swanton and Alburgh, Vermont, this home is situated on a bay between two bridges sheltering swimmers, paddle boards, and kayaks from winds and high waves.

Guests have easy access to Hog Island Market (5 min) for fishing licenses, bait and tackle, beer and wine, and other convenience store items.

Pontoon and fishing boat rentals are also close by at Campbell's Bay Campground (4 miles).

The Alburgh Recreational park and rail trail entrance is just a block south of the home where guests can hike or ride bikes on the 5-mile nature trail.

In addition, the Missisquoi National Wildlife Refuge is 1.5 miles away, and the area's most popular ice cream stand is one mile away.

For those looking for additional adventures, the Canadian border crossing is 3 miles to the north where guests can easily travel 10 min into Quebec for a delicious French dinner.

Great location for family vacation

This was a great spot for our family, including 2 young kids. We loved the easy lake access and enjoyed sitting out on the porch. There was plenty of space for us all. And it’s an easy drive into Swanton to pick up any forgotten essentials. Would stay again.

Relaxing lake getaway

We had a great stay! The house is clean and has plenty of room. Well-equipped with kitchen supplies, barbecue, and outdoor furniture. The property owners are extremely responsive and helped make our stay great. The lakefront is beautiful and we enjoyed the kayaks and paddleboards. For a day out it's only a 45 minute drive to burlington for plenty of restaraunts and breweries.

Comfortable and cozy

We enjoyed our weekend at Josie's. Unfortunately, the temperatures dropped way below 0 degrees, as we had hoped to ski and walk the dog more in the great location on the lake, but we thoroughly enjoyed the house and our family time together cozy inside. Great facilities and I would love to use the place again maybe in the summer.

Great location!

This gem of a property is perfect for any time of the year and all ages! So much to do and see. Or for relaxation right on the lake. There are pontoon boats for rent right down the road. We even went to Montreal one day and toured the city! The owner was fabulous and communication was easy. You won’t be disappointed when you book here!

So much fun.

Josie was amazing and checked on us. Husband worked on deck when it rained. Well stocked and great common areas in house. Best part, the outside accomodations; lots of green space, deck overlooking water and water front. Closed in porch and outdoor area were great for little humans and dogs! Going back next year! Thank you Josie!!
