Charming Lakefront Cottage with Bird's Eye Views

Escape to the quiet shores of Lake Champlain in this cozy hilltop cottage. Situated at the end of of a private road on Pelot’s Point in the beautiful Champlain Islands of Vermont you can get away from the hustle and bustle, yet be minutes from everything the Historic Village of North Hero has to offer.

Imagine waking up to colorful sunrises and the relaxing sounds of nature right outside your window. Pour your cup of coffee (or tea) and step outside onto the lakefront balcony to take in that warm morning sun and serene water. Situated on a hill, this cozy cottage has a bird’s eye view of all that surrounds you. You enter on the 2nd floor to an open concept kitchen/living area with half bath. Enjoy cooking in the well equipped and spacious kitchen complete with dishwasher, gas stove and large dining table. Or kick back and relax in the bright and sunny living room containing two comfy couches and deep seating arm chairs....all with fantastic views from the big picture windows. If you need to stay connected, enjoy fast free WiFi and stream your favorite shows from the 42” flat screen tv. Downstairs you will find 2 comfortable bedrooms with queen sized beds. The larger bedroom contains a twin size daybed and additional pullout trundle with a 5” memory foam mattress for extra sleeping accommodations.

Walk out the lower level down to the lakeside deck and private dock, relax in the Adirondack chairs or grab the kayaks and explore Pelots Bay. Please note, that due to the hillside location, there are stairs to get to the waterfront and docks.

Just what we needed to break away from all the stress of life. It was quiet and peaceful! I especially enjoyed the kayaks and lake access...there is nothing like Lake Champlain at sunrise.

Perfect lake cabin
This is just what we pictured for a cabin by the lake. Wooded, private, and on the water with some kayaks. The house was tastefully finished and everything was where we needed it, down to the chilled mugs in the freezer!

Lovely Lake Cottage
We enjoyed our stay at this cute Lake Champlain cottage. The boat dock was a big plus, as well as the kayaks. We had everything we needed. Loved the lake views from the large windows. Very comfortable and nice decor.

Last minute retreat was perfect
ChatGPT My family enjoyed an entire week of both tranquility and fun. The spacious home was exceptionally clean, the beds were comfortable, and the well-equipped kitchen met all our needs. We found a perfect balance between unwinding by the firepit, evening fishing sessions, and leisurely cruises in the four available kayaks, keeping boredom at bay throughout our stay. Exploring downtown, we discovered an extraordinary store renowned as one of VT's most unique, offering a diverse array of products. The breathtaking views from the house and the scenic drive to the local pristine beach added to the overall experience. Without a doubt, we would eagerly return, as we are immensely grateful for this wonderful and much-needed getaway. Thank you once again for providing us with such a fantastic experience.

Comfortable
It was very comfortable. All the air conditioners and mini splits worked perfectly. The shower was great perfect shelving and water pressure. The house was so clean. The towels, the beach towels and the laundry facilities clean too! The kitchen had great pots and pans and a few storage containers which worked out wonderful. There were a lot of stairs down to the dock, but my friends and I (all age 60) actually enjoyed the exercise. We brought the lightweight Adirondack chairs down to the dock because we didn’t want to sit out back at the fire pit. We wanted to be near the water. There were 4 of us so it worked out just right. The view from the kitchen table was spectacular.

Great remote cottage to stay
Over all we had a nice time and perfect place to be if you like less people. Kids had a lot of fun kayaking and fishing. Everything in the house worked as it should. Lucky we were able to use the grille tank as a back up because the stove in the house ran out the last night and day there. Thank you for helping us enjoy our vacation in Vermont!

Great getaway!
The property manager Claire was wonderful to work with - accommodating and quick to respond! There was a welcome bottle of wine and a nice note waiting upon our arrival. The checkin and checkout process were very easy. The house itself is adorable - nicely updated kitchen and bathrooms. The views from indoors and the top deck are wonderful and I watched the sunrise from the dock ! We enjoyed our breakfast on the upper deck with stools overlooking the lake. Location is quiet and safe. The house is 2 stories with a staircase that can be challenging to navigate if you have mobility issues, just something to keep in mind. We very much enjoyed our stay and hope to return again !
