Just a wonderful place to relax and decompress. Major stores not even 10 minutes away on route 7. The sunrises and sunsets were amazing and the fishing right of the dock was fantastic.

The cottage was very cozy and well kept. It has a beautiful screened porch that we read, ate, and played games. It is directly on the lake with a beautiful view. We took out the kayaks and swam. There is a very nice state park and beach in the town. Plus a Hannafords. We had a wonderful time. The host is very nice and responsive.

We had a wonderful stay at this lake house. The propery was true to the VRBO online description and was very clean, with easy access when we arrived. The "neighborhood" was quiet with easy travel to get groceries or meals out. The host was terrific. Tonja was very responsive to our questions and left us a wonderful Vermont-esque treat upon our arrival. We highly recommend this spot for a quiet getaway in northern VT. Thanks, Tonja!

This trip was just what I was looking for, a get away to relax I was looking for a cabin on the water with a fire pit and grill, this had all of this and then more. We did not want to leave the peace and quiet, I had my coffee on the porch overlooking the water every morning. We hope to go back soon.

We came into town for a wedding. The whole family came with us. So it was great to have the extra cottage for peace and quiet for the baby. It was definitely family friendly. It was about 15 mins away from downtown. So easy enough to get food or go explore. The water was super low and the state recommended no drinking or swimming in the lake. So i certainly won't hold that against anyone. Kind-of put a damper on the whole weekend. Overall, not a bad cabin with attached cottage

Great camp, amazing views!

This camp had everything we needed for a great stay! From the Keurig for morning coffee, the filtered water spout in the kitchen, the ample space to spread out for four of us, to the window air conditioning units, this place was full of amenities! Sitting on the porch and gazing out on the lake was amazing! Being able to have my boat right there on the property's dock was definitely a game changer. It was very peaceful. Leaving the property, my boys asked if we could make this our annual camp for our special weekend. I agree, I sure hope we're able to!
