The best fishing in Lake Champlain is just minutes away in the broad lake. If you are a diver you cannot find a better location. For winter renters, the ski areas are between 40 minutes and 1 hour and 30 minutes away. The most easily accessed areas are Bolton Valley (40 min), Stowe(1:20) and Sugarbush(1:20).

Magical property
When I walked into the house, I thought, Ï could live here! What a cozy, magical and comfortable place. We loved everything about it and will be staying here whenever I come up to visit my daughter at UVM. She spent hours studying in front of the fire while we made apple crisp. Saturday morning when we woke up there was a full rainbow outside where you could see both ends. Home is clean, comfortable and fabulous!

Perfect location
We had a great stay at this beautiful cottage on a bluff overlooking Lake Champlain. Very safe and quiet neighborhood that was great for our toddler and dog and made a perfect base for exploring Burlington and the Green Mountains. House had everything we needed to cook nice meals and enjoy the lake.

Fabulous Serene accommodation
Correspondence with the owner was quick and informative, arrival went flawless. Property is private and do peaceful. House was spotless and had all you could want and more. Sat on the deck watching the lake, sunsets, waking up to birds and a view to make you just want to stay. I would recommend this lovely property to everyone.

Great family stay
We had a wonderful stay on Mallets Bay. Having previously stayed at the house next door (owned by the same host) we knew we could expect a clean property and this delivered. There was plenty of space for all 5 of us. The open floor plan allowed our toddler and dog ample running around options and our son was obsessed with the stash of toys upstairs in the loft. Everything was set up for comfort and the views can’t be beat. Looking forward to coming back next year!

Nice trip to Burlington (UVM)
Home was warm and inviting. Locaton is close to Burlington and University of Vermont. Local area has all you need. Restaurants, grocery shopping, gas and pubs are all with a few miles. House is on Lake Champlain with beautiful sunsets. It was a great place to get away.

Great house & location!
We loved our time at this house! My only complaint is being told at booking that the dock wasn’t in yet and therefore made boating a challenge. I would rent this house again-it provided a lovely opportunity for our family to be together, clean, spacious, and beautiful, quiet location.

Great place on the lake with amazing view of sunset. The large wrapping deck was great to entertain and have a glass of wine. Caught and released 4 fish (bass and perch) right off the dock. Only concern was stairs were steep and narrow for getting kayaks or canoe down. Would reserve again!!

The house is beautiful, comfortable and welcoming. It's right on the lake in a quiet neighborhood, but minutes from Burlington. My husband, I and 2 friends enjoyed activities in the area during the day and time at the house in the evening. The well-appointed kitchen made it easy to cook dinners and the dining table afforded beautiful views of the lake and sunsets as we ate. We went at this time of year with hopes of seeing some Northern Lights. While the conditions and weather were not cooperative for that, we spent one evening with hot chocolate out on the deck gazing at the stars. Many thanks to Diane and Don for sharing their beautiful home. I highly recommend this property and would stay there again next time I'm in the area.
