About this property

Waterfront retreat with dock, sauna, & firepit - near Woodstock & ski areas

  • This beautiful Vermont retreat is nestled right on the glimmering waters of Silver Lake. Ideal for adventure enthusiasts, outdoor lovers, and those looking to reconnect with nature, the outdoor recreation opportunities here are abundant! As the sunrise meets the lake in the morning, get out on the provided canoe or kayaks for a serene glide. Afternoons can be spent in the hammock, in the sauna, and around a board game. And in the evenings, the grill and firepit are paired perfectly for a sweet summer barbecue followed by s'mores.

    If you'd like to explore the area more, check out the Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park, Billings Farm & Museum, and Woodstock Town Hall Theatre. Saskadena Six, one of North America's oldest ski resorts, is only 11 miles away, while Killington, the largest ski resort in the eastern United States, is 25 miles from your vacation home and boasts the widest variety of terrain for skiers to tackle. For added fun, the Nordic Center at Woodstock is 12 miles away and offers 45km of groomed trails for skate and classic cross-country skiing. Snowshoeing and fat bike riding are also available on the trails.

    Walking inside your retreat, you will instantly take notice of the continued lake views. During the colder months, don't be surprised if you spot indigenous fowl searching for food as you appreciate the incredible vista. The living area is adorned with ample soft seating, an electric fireplace, and a large TV - making this space perfect for gatherings and family movie nights. The gleaming kitchen is any chef's dream, with stainless steel appliances, shining countertops, and a center island. Enjoy afternoon snacks at the breakfast bar and gather for family-style meals at the lake-view dining table. Coffee lovers will enjoy the sunroom for their ritual morning cups of coffee.

    You will find carefully curated pockets of peace in each bedroom. Home is equipped with Radiant Floors. Lovingly decorated with homey fixtures, soft linens, and calming color palettes, your family will be content and comfortable. Enjoy soaking in the grand clawfoot tub after a day in the sun.

    The kids will love the additional TV room with its bean bags, keyboard, chess set, and continued lake views. Multiple work desks in this home make it easy to work remotely when necessary, and the private washer/dryer ensures that chore time is the least of your concerns.

    THINGS TO KNOW
    Streaming services are available with guests' own account(s).
    Though ice skaters and fishing enthusiasts can traverse the lake when frozen, please take heed that the ice can be thin and it may not be safe to do so.
    The king bed can be converted to two twins upon request.
    This home is not equipped with air-conditioning.

Wonderful

Gorgeous house in a beautiful location! It was comfortable and beautiful inside, and the large windows let you appreciate the lake without even going outside. It wasn't great weather so we didn't take advantage of the boats or dock.

Amazing home on a beautiful lake

The house is wonderful, well decorated, comfortable and cozy. The views and different lights on the lake are so beautiful and the neighborhood is quiet. We loved the peacefulness, the available canoe and kayak, the possibility to swim, gaudious nature and hiking around. Woodstock is a pretty town nearby for going out. And we loved the kitchen was so well equipped for real serious cooking 😘 Perfect stay. We would love to come back

Beautiful location

Beautiful Location and super clean house! We loved being right on the lake and loved the views at sunrise and sunset, especially. Close to Woodstock and the little market right down the street on the corner is perfect for grabbing last minute items or ingredients for a quick dinner. Only issue was the king bed was actually two twin beds pushed together ( that wasn’t very securely put together.) Fun little game room with keyboard and great Wi-Fi.

Silver Lake Vermont

Lovely waterfront property on beautiful Silver Lake. Recently built house. Greatly enjoyed the kayaks and canoe. Very friendly, helpful neighbors and local manager. First floor queen bed has to be moved away from side wall to allow access to both sides of bed. Then a bed post hits the ceiling fan. Enjoyed our four week stay. Highly recommend.

Wonderful Lake House

This is a beautiful home, situated on one of our favorite Vermont lakes. We really appreciated having use of the canoe and kayaks.The views are spectacular. The home was well-appointed and everything was spotlessly clean. We enjoyed our stay and plan on returning next time we're out this way--we have family in the area. We noted the other review about the unconventional placement of the beds in a couple of the rooms and noticed that too. It wasn't a big issue for us. This is a fairly new rental--I'm sure they're still working a few things out. We highly recommend this property.

Lake Views

Great home with beautiful lake views! There's a tree swing looking out over the lake which is the perfect spot for a quiet moment at the beginning of the day. Our October trip provided the beauty of the leaves changing in addition to the lake for amazing scenery. We appreciated the gas stove for cooking. There are plenty of cooking utensils - make sure to check out the hidden drawers if you can't find what you're looking for! If you're a coffee lover, a nespresso is available, but make sure to pack your own coffee - there was none pre-stocked for us and a lot of the shops close early. The extra half bath is attached to the bonus room upstairs, making it perfect for the people sharing the king room to each have their own toilet space.

Brand new house!

This is a new, comfortable house on a lovely little lake in a perfect Vermont town. There are canoes and kayaks and a small dock from which the launch. The kitchen is terrific and very well stocked with essentials. We had a lovely stay.

Perfect house in a perfect location

We came with two other couples. The house was roomy enough for us all to be together to cook and relax. We had a problem with washing machine that was fixed within a day. The general store in Barnard was only a half a mile away. We found farms to buy fresh meats vegetables and breads and ice cream. Woodstock which is a charming little town is only 9 miles away

Lovely Lake House

We really enjoyed our stay. The property was just as advertised and Silver Lake was absolutely gorgeous. We did a lot of cooking and the kitchen was very well equipped, except there was no regular coffee maker. I think we may have been one of the first families to rent this property. I would recommend a dresser in each room because there was no place to put clothes. Also, more side tables and lamps for reading. We loved the sauna and enjoyed taking the canoe around the lake. We met some neighbors, and all were welcoming and friendly. All in all we were very pleased and would recommend this home very highly.
