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.

The area's only sand beach is also just a block from the house.

For anglers, the Bass/Walleye/Northern Pike bite is the best on the lake.

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.

Relaxing stay
Great property in an ideal location. Went on our trip loaded up to ice fish but Mother Nature had other plans. Lack of safe ice made us slow down, relax, and thoroughly enjoy some down time. Kitchen was big enough and had everything we needed to cook some great meals. There was more than enough room for us to play some board games, watch TV, or catch some winks, never not having space. Looking forward to going back during the summer or fall and taking even more advantage of the space and location. Great Host too.

Great Stay
House is tidy and great with the rooms and amenities. Very welcoming and warm environment. Has no snow, but still enjoyed stay as we had a lake front, yard, and lots of entertainment in the house. Host is very welcoming and supportive, great neighborhood, nature, clean air!

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!

We’ve rented Josie’s properties a couple of times. The houses have exceeded listing/expectations. Couldn’t imagine a better host. 10/10. Will rent again.

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.

Great weekend getaway
We had a pretty wet weekend in Alburgh but we all still had a great time at the house. Everyone had plenty of room to spread out, there were six adults and 2 toddlers. We had everything we needed and would definitely stay again!
