The cottage sits 30 feet from the edge of the lake. Wonderful sunsets

The property is located on West Shore Road in Grand Isle on the 'Broad Lake' looking across Lake Champlain to the Adirondacks. The cottage sits 100 yards off the road shaded by old cedar trees. It is a beautiful piece of lakefront with a private beach. Great for swimming, fishing, or lounging in the sun down by the water.

The cottage sleeps four in two bedrooms, one with a queen-size bed, one with a double bed. There is also a double futon in the living room. Nice, comfortable living room and kitchen, bath with stall shower, and a lovely lakeside screened-in porch. There is a gas grill as well as a charcoal grill, Adirondack chairs, town water (not a well or the lake). Bath towels and bed linens supplied. Please bring linens for futon if planning on using. Gas fireplace. Free wireless internet. New in 2021 is our wonderful outside shower.

Perfect fall getaway!

My wife and I spent few nights here in early October and what an incredible spot right on Lake Champlain! We couldn’t get enough of the sunsets over the NY foliage. Looking forward to going back

Beautiful, Rustic Spot

My partner and I really enjoyed our short stay here. The cottage was a little more rustic than we expected, but the gas wood stove and the new oven (the latter updated from in the listing photos) were great additions. The cottage is just a staircase away from the lake where we could sit and watch the sun set. We would definitely stay here again.

Cute but small

Beautiful location on the lake. We had 4 adults and found the bedrooms very small. Need second toilet. The cottage is well maintained but showing it age.

Amazing views

Quaint little cottage with amazing views. Very relaxing and peaceful. From morning coffee on the porch, the cozy hammock and watching sunsets on your own private beach. If you do venture out, drop by a farmer's market, take in a concert at the Snowfarm Vineyard or grab the 15 min Ferry to New York and visit Ausable Chasm. We definitely will be back. Thanks Dave!

The place is private, peaceful, clean and well maintained. Dave, the owner, even warned us of an approaching storm and advised us on how to protect screen porch furniture upholstery from getting wet, so communication was excellent, too.

Cozy cottage in a great location

This immaculately maintained cozy little cottage is situated right at the edge of the shore of Lake Champlain. The sunsets were breathtaking and the area so peaceful and relaxing. Perfect spot from which to explore all the islands have to offer, while also easy to reach Burlington.

Lakefront Cottage

We’ve stayed at this cottage four times now - great location - Dave is a good host and communicates well. Peaceful spot and can’t beat the view. It’s also easy to get to Burlington or across to New York depending on what you’re looking to do.

View of Lake Champlain

Beautiful, comfortable cottage on Lake Champlain with incredible view of sunsets! Although small, we spent most of our time on the screened porch (when we weren’t golfing). All over very clean, kitchen had everything we needed. Spacious outside shower (very private) was amazing especially since we had 90F heat wave! All in all our 5 day stay was wonderful, thanks Dave!

Loved the cabin and the view!

Great view, loved the screened-in porch, hammock, rocky beach, outdoor fires, walks along the road, local produce at a neighborhood farm. Overall a great experience. Only downside was the neighbors on either side were noisy, but still we would return. Thank you!

So calming and beautiful

Such a nice property! The view is STUNNING and the sunsets every night are unbeatable. I love that the cottage is older and rustic. Something about it just calms you down and makes all your worries wash away. You are a short drive to 2 grocery stores, things to do, a couple restaurants, and plenty of baked goods! Yum! The only thing we agreed was not the best was the beds. They were pretty uncomfortable and there were a couple nights we didn't sleep well. But otherwise we were calm and happy the entire trip. We even got engaged here!!

Grand Isle Cottage

Wonderful, quiet, well equipped. The house was clean and comfortable - the owner wonderful to work with. The views of the lake are spectacular!! The owner should post pictures of the lake at night with the moon reflecting off the water - beautiful! We hope to return again and would definitely recommend to our friends.

Total relaxation

This property is in a great location with a perfect lake view. We were looking to stay at a small cozy place and the screened in porch looking out to the lake was a definite plus. This property was immaculately clean. The neighborhood was quiet. We were looking for rest and relaxation and found it here. Great stay.
